About Well Visit: Immunizations

The Immunizations window displays the patient's immunization record. Here you can print the immunization grid or the complete list of immunizations from a patient’s chart. Historical vaccines can also be entered in the Immunization window. This section of the Well Visit Note is chart-driven, meaning that the information populated here is pulled from and pushed back to the same section in the Patient Chart.
