COVID-19 Tippy - Finding COVID-19 Vaccination Information

Tippies can be quickly adopted with immediate workflow benefits...
  • Finding COVID-19 Immunization Histories
The Connect Care health record includes an immunization history activity. This supports automated documentation of all immunizations ordered and administered through Connect Care. Other immunization data is acquired from provincial information systems through interfaces. Finally, any clinician can add one or more missing immunization records to complete a patient's history.

NOTE: For a variety of reasons, Connect Care COVID-19 immunization history information may be missing or incomplete (see FAQ).
  • As always, ask the patient!
    Many patients will have an official vaccination record that can be used as a valid source for updating the immunization history. 
  • Check Netcare
    Netcare immunization histories draw from many sources and are updated more frequently (and, for now, completely) with COVID-19 immunization administration data.
Use Chart Search to find a "jump to" link and open the "Immunizations" activity in a patient chart. Alternately, jump to the Immunizations activity by clicking on the "Immunizations" section of the patient SnapShot in the Chart Review activity.

Once opened, the Immunizations activity can be used to review information, add missing information and produce immunization reports.
 
  1. Recorded immunizations are listed in the "Administration History" section, grouped by type.
  2. One or more missing immunizations can be added by selecting from the "Historical Admins" menu.
  3. A formal immunization record can be printed (for provision to the patient) using the "Immunization Report" button.
The same immunization history information appears to patients in the MyChart patient portal.
