Safety Practices

Patient Rounds: Are done on the computer instead of physically on the door. They are used to
keep organization in the clinic. And show up as round dots beside the patient's name on the
medical professional’s screens.
- Black: Means the medical assistant is in the room
- White: Means everything’s done and to clean the room
- Red: Something inside needs attention of the medical assistant
- Blue & Gray: Patients need to be seen. When both are up those patients can be seen after
the patients with only the gray. Gray means the patient has been waiting longer.
- Green: Mean Sherry is in the room with the patient/the patient's visit is complete
