Transport

Overview

The Transport module allows you to manage and maintain a registry of vehicles or transport services available at your healthcare facility. This includes ambulances, medical shuttles, and patient transfer vehicles used to move patients or medical supplies safely.

When Do I Use This?

• When adding a newly purchased ambulance or shuttle to your hospital's fleet.
• When recording specific dispatch or billing codes for different transport options.
• When taking a vehicle out of service for maintenance or retirement so staff know it is unavailable.

How To Use

Adding a New Transport

1. Go to Transport from the main menu.
2. Click + New to open a blank form.
3. Enter the Name of the vehicle or service (e.g., "Ambulance 1" or "North Wing Shuttle").
4. Provide a unique Code for dispatching or internal tracking.
5. Write down any helpful details in the Description.
6. Ensure the Active box is checked so staff can select it.
7. Click Save.

Deactivating a Transport

If a vehicle breaks down or is permanently retired, you should deactivate it rather than delete it. This keeps your past records accurate.

1. Find and click on the transport record from the main list.
2. Uncheck the Active box.
3. Click Save.
