Getting Started with Vision
Overview

Vision is a Windows based program that accesses patient data stored on a
clinical server in the practice or remotely at another location. To enable the
programme to display the patient data the workstation must be logged onto
the network using a valid user name and password that will have been set-up
prior to access being granted to any of the workstations.

This document assumes that the user can navigate a Windows workstation
using the mouse or keyboard and that the workstation login process has been
completed.

Access to the clinical system is provided by the practice to individual users.
Before attempting to access the system please ensure that you have a user
account set-up and agree to comply with the relevant policies applicable to
your role namely the Information Governance, Code of Confidentiality, Data
Protection Act, Freedom of Information, Access to Health Records, IT
Security Policy (including Email and Internet Use) and Computer Misuse Act.
Before you are given access to the system the practice will check your
compliance with these and any other policies in place.

Add Medical History

Records are automatically stored either in a generalised Medical History or in
Structured Data Areas. Entries can be made either by clicking on the Journal
tab, or selecting a guideline if you are making multiple entries e.g. during a
clinic/review

               1. Select the Journal tab of the patient record or click Add |
                  Medical History.

               2. Click into the Read Term – Add field

         Either:

               3. Type in a keyword, such as headache and press Enter to
                  display the first matching entry. Then use the up ↑ and down ↓
                  keys to display the next or previous entry to find appropriate
                  term and click OK.
         Or:
                  Enter a known READ code preceded by # and press Enter.

         If the required entry is found move to Step 5.

               4. If this is not the correct entry, double click or press the 
                  function key to display a READ Dictionary screen, giving a list
                  based on the keyword entered. This will include READ
                  descriptions from different parts of the READ dictionary, shown
                  by the different codes, e.g. chapter 1 History and Symptoms or
                  Diagnostic codes starting with Capital ;letters

If the required entry is shown on the list, double click on it.
         The following options are available if the required entry is not listed:
                  Deselect                      by removing the tick from the box
                  (click with the left mouse button). This will display all matching
                  entries from the whole READ dictionary.

                  Bearing in mind the fact that many READ Terms do not have
                  keywords, it may be necessary to display entries by READ code.
                  To do this, highlight a suitable line and click on
                                           to tick/check the box. A Find Read
                  Code screen will be displayed. To open one of the closed folders
                  and view the contents of that branch of the hierarchy, double
                  click on the symbol. The path through the hierarchy is clearly
                  visible by following the open folder symbol up the branch. The
                  selected entry is highlighted. To close an open folder, double
                  click on. Any entries with a 'piece of paper' symbol cannot be
                  expanded any further - they are at the bottom of that branch of
                  the hierarchy and can be selected.

                  Once the correct entry has been found and highlighted, click on
                  the OK button.

              5. The History Add screen is displayed again with the READ term
                 you selected entered in READ Term for Characteristic. All you
                 need do now is press OK unless you want to make one of the
                 optional changes:
