Minor Skin Conditions (NSW)

Open the warning signs or referral criteria next to the question you're answering.
Medication options for the condition, drawn from the practice standards and the Therapeutic Guidelines.
The Reference panel follows the condition, with its sources and last-updated date.
The Clinical Note populates from your selections as a SOAP note, ready for you to edit.

Referrals

Create a referral to an outside provider, or record one a provider has made to you, and keep it on the patient's record. Referrals sit on the patient, on the service so you can capture one during an encounter, and on each professional contact.
