How to Replicate Orders and Vitals Across Residents

If you have an order that should be scheduled for more than one resident, we can efficiently replicate the order for charting for other residents. 

Often these orders are Treatment orders for vitals checks, but this can be done for Routine or PRN medications, or Informational orders. 

1. Go to Manage Orders for the resident who already has the order on their chart.
2. Click the Options button to the right of the order and click Replicate Across Residents. From there, you can choose if you would like this order to appear on the MAR, Physician Orders, and Pass Meds page for all residents or a specific group.
   • For Informationals, these show on the resident Physician Orders documents only. Read this article for more details about Informational orders: Informational Orders. 

• Once an order has been replicated to one or more residents, there will display an icon to the left of the order name that looks like copied paper. 
• If you edit the order on any resident's Manage Orders page, you will see an additional option to apply your changes to the other residents who have the same replicated order. Find this checkbox below the '+Add Another Schedule' button.
