How to Discharge a Patient on the Clinician Experience Therapy Platform 

​

1. Click the three dots and select ‘Discharge patient’.  

2. You will be asked to confirm this action before the patient is discharged. When a patient is discharged neither they nor you will be able to exchange messages in the therapy room. If you are certain you wish to discharge the patient, click ‘Discharge patient’. If for some reason a patient was discharged in error, and the discharge was fewer than six weeks earlier, you can reverse a discharge by going to the patient by selecting ‘Undischarge patient’ from the three-dots menu.  This will mean that both you and the patient will be able to exchange messages in the therapy room again.
