The purpose of this article is to explain how to book an appointment using the Side by Side Scheduler within Meddbase.
Side by Side Scheduler
This tool provides an overview of Clinicians' schedules, seeing who is available and when at a moments glance. You can access the Side-by-side Scheduler in 2 ways:
1. Clinician > Clinician Schedules
2. Meddbase Logo > Schedule
The page you are presented with once opening the tool, will give you an instant visual representation of your clinic’s calendar.
You can change the site by using the drop down box at the top of the page.
The right hand pane allows you to adjust which day and the range of days being shown (You can also print the clinic schedule for the day, week or month here).
Dates in which there is availability with at least 1 clinician, will be in bold.
The left hand pane will allow you to filter your view based on a number of parameters, these include:
- Individual Clinicians
- Clinician Sex
- Clinician Discipline
- Clinician Role
