Verifying Orders

Verification shows that the nurse has seen the order.

When a nurse verifies an order, the nurse's initials are then placed in the appropriate column on the Orders tab.

Note:      If you do not have the correct key, you will not see the Verify option on the Action menu.

 

To verify an order, use these steps:

1.     Select the Orders tab.

2.     Hold down the CTRL key and click the orders you want to verify.

3.     Select Action | Verify.

4.     In the dialog that appears, enter your electronic signature code.
