Description

Client Comment

This is an immunization-related comment. Assign or change a client comment using the 'Client Comment' pick list. The client comment list is derived from a pre-select, CDC-standardized list. Free-text client comments are not supported by the registry.

The client comments are visible at the top of the Immunization History, Edit Immunization, Pre-Select Immunization, and Record Immunization screens. Also, when using the Print button on the immunization history page, the comments are displayed on separate lines in the Comments box. *Note*

Applies-To Date

This is the date which the selected comment applies to. Assign or change the applies-to date by typing the desired date into the 'Applies-To Date' text box using the format MM/DD/CCYY, or click on the calendar icon to set the date.

 Contraindications

There can be repercussions when clients get assigned certain comments. This is known in the registry as a contraindication. Contraindications affect the interactive relationship between the immunizations the client receives and the recommended immunizations from the clients selected tracking schedule.

When a certain type of vaccine is contraindicated because of an assigned comment, that vaccine should not be given to the client.

It is imperative to check a clients record for assigned comments before giving them any immunizations.
