You can edit a patient's unsigned and missing clinical notes in the Signature Manager. Once you sign a clinical note you can only modify it by adding an addendum to it.
Important: If passwords are enabled, a user must have the Modify Clinical Notes permission to open the Signature Manager and edit a clinical note.
To edit a clinical note
1. Open the Signature Manager.
The Signature Manager window appears.
2. To edit an unsigned or missing note, click it.
The details of the note appear.
Note: A missing note is classified as either blank (a note without content) or missing (a note hasn't been created).
3. Click the Edit Note or the Create Note icon in the upper left corner of the text box.
The Clinical Note dialog box appears.
4. Type or select a note from the template list.
5. To save the edited note, click Save & Close.
