ℹ️Introduction
This article explains how to use the Ardens Bravery Certificates to recognise patients who have been brave during an appointment, vaccination or other procedure. By the end of this article, you will know how to locate the certificates in your clinical system, generate a personalised certificate and print it for the patient.
Background
Patients may feel anxious or worried when attending healthcare appointments, particularly when having a vaccination, blood test or other procedure. A Bravery Certificate provides a simple way to recognise and celebrate an achievement.
How Ardens Can Help
Ardens provides Bravery Certificates that can be accessed directly from your clinical system. The certificates can be generated using the patient's record, allowing relevant patient and user details to populate the document automatically.
