The seventh tab on the Residents screen is headed "Admission/Absence History". Some Local Authorities require the home to keep records of any occasions when the resident is absent from the home along with reasons. The information can be entered on the upper part of this screen and if required can be shown on specific local authority invoices.
Absence records can be removed by clicking on the "Del" button on the left of the screen.
Absences entered on this screen will be shown on the Absence Report.
The lower part of the screen allows the recording of multiple admissions and discharges, this could occur if a client came into the home for a period or respite care on a number of different occasions. Enter the "Date", "Details" and "Movement Type" (this is either an "Admission" or a "Discharge").
