NOTES:
The parameters that control the "stickman" and the timer for this are found in File, Providers, Select a provider and go to the Appointments tab of the Provider file, and can be set individually for each provider in the practice. The settings can be different per provider.
This window can also display the patient's photo if the EXAMINE or EXAMINE-ID (an additional EXACT EXACT Video Integration system) software is installed. This allows patient photos to be captured using a digital camera/webcam.
Selecting the next Patient
Double-click the Arrivals Door icon:
Select the next patient, by highlighting them within the list:
Click the Move to Chair button to inform EXACT EXACT that you are accepting the selected patient in the chair.
The animated figures on the toolbar now display a stick person in a dental chair, to the left of the Arrivals Door:
In the Patient Preview window (above), the stick figure icon will also change to a stick person in a dental chair:
The stick person in the chair represents the patient in your chair; any stick people remaining at the door represent patients who are still waiting.
Click the View Patient button
to return to the chart window and begin treatment.
Returning a Patient to the Waiting Room
Some scenarios for returning a patient to the waiting room:
...
With the patient’s record open, double-click the arrivals door icon:
This will open the Patient Preview window, with the patients listed:
Highlight the patient whom you wish to return to the waiting room, and click the Return to waiting room button.
Consequences to note:
In the appointment book the patient will also be displayed as a stick person
rather than as a stick person in a dental chair 
.The patient will be represented on the toolbar as a stick person waiting at the door, but without any animation. i.e. the symbol does not warn you of long wait time!
When a patient is returned to the waiting room, their 'stickman' indicator does not animate again for this appointment because animations are for patients who have arrived, and a patient who has been returned to the waiting room is no longer in the Arrived state.
Viewing the records of another Patient
You may wish to view the details of a patient who you are seeing the same day. To do this:
Double-click the Arrivals Door icon in the toolbar:
Select the option: Show All Appointments
Select the patient in the list then click the View Patient button.
This does not affect any other patients' records, nor change the icons for waiting patients or those undergoing treatment.
