The Task Drawer is a detailed view where you can find all the nitty-gritty details that help you make informed decisions and deliver highly reliable care.
Many of the details are straightforward, however, there are other helpful elements of a task held in the task drawer that might take a little trial and error.
Share and view statuses to update teammates on a task without having to find them in the hallway
Use labels to define and tag tasks as part of a certain population or workflow, e.g. ADHD, ESL, Aetna.
Add custom fields that are specific to a patient population, type of encounter, practice location or care team preferences
Additionally, there are two helpful collaboration tools in the task drawer: comments and mentions. They work like they do on social media.
Comments are anecdotes and updates relevant to the task at hand.
Mentions use the @ sign to tag teammates who need to see a comment.
Finally, the audit trail in a task drawer helps you hold accountability toward highly reliable care by capturing and time-stamping all the work associated with a task.
