Recipes
There are three types of recipes - Private, Practice and Community.
Private recipes are created by clinicians for private use only, and will only be available to the user that created them. Practice recipes, which have been created by local users at the clinic, are shared with, and available to all users at their practice. Community recipes are created by MediRecords users that actively contribute to, and share clinical information with the MediRecords community. Recipes shared with the community are available to all clinicians and practices using MediRecords.

There are three types of recipes - Private, Practice and Community.
Private recipes are created by clinicians for private use only, and will only be available to the user that created them. Practice recipes, which have been created by local users at the clinic, are shared with, and available to all users at their practice. Community recipes are created by MediRecords users that actively contribute to, and share clinical information with the MediRecords community. Recipes shared with the community are available to all clinicians and practices using MediRecords.
In the Recipes section of the Drugs article, you will learn how to create new recipes, and share them with your practice or the MediRecords community. And how to manage, edit and delete existing recipes, and change the share level on recipes you have previously created. You will also learn how to filter recipes from the summary, search for recipes using keywords, and deactivate recipes to remove them from your active recipe list.
By default, the Recipes page displays a summary of all recipes that are available for you to use. The summary includes recipes that are private, shared with your practice or the MediRecords community. From the summary page, you can quickly view the recipe Name, Form, Quantity, Restriction, Repeats, Share level, Rating and Status, and who the protocol was Created By.

To Filter Recipes from your list, click Filter to reveal a drop-down list. Click to select a filter under the Scope or Status headings or select a combination of filters under both headings. Active filters will have a Tick next to the name.

To Search for Recipes, click the Search-box and type in a Keyword from the Name. Press Enter and the system will display a list of the closest matches.
