Empower your clinic with Cliniq Apps by streamlining how patients fill in their details on an iPad. With Cliniq Apps, you can quickly create an app-like icon that patients can tap to start filling in their forms, making the entire process more efficient for both staff and patients.
Why Cliniq Apps?
Cliniq Apps simplifies the patient intake and form-filling process. By creating an in-practice icon or shortcut right on your iPad’s home screen, you ensure each new patient can fill out their information in a few quick taps, while Cliniq Apps automatically integrates that information into your practice management software (Cliniko or Nookal). This saves you time and helps prevent errors in patient data entry.
Step-by-Step: Adding the Form Shortcut to Your iPad
Obtain the Form Link
Copy the form link or send it to yourself by email using the "Email me instructions and the link to" option in Cliniq Apps.
Open the Link on Your iPad
On your iPad, open your preferred browser (e.g., Safari) and paste the link into the address bar.
Access the Share Options
Once the page is loaded, tap on the Share button (the square icon with an upward arrow).
Add to Home Screen
Look for the option labeled “Add to Home Screen” and tap it.
Name Your App
Type in a name that clearly indicates it's your patient form (e.g., “Patient Forms” or “In-Practice Forms”).
Enjoy Your New App-Like Shortcut
The icon will now appear on your iPad’s home screen. Tapping it will open the patient form, ready to be filled out.
Using the iPad with Patients
Hand the iPad to your patient, or set it up on a stand in your reception area.
Once a patient completes and submits their form, the screen automatically refreshes—ready for the next patient to start.
Important Note for Patients
When entering your details, make sure to use exactly the same first name, last name, and phone number as recorded in your practice management system. Any mismatch (e.g., a different spelling or phone number) will result in this error:
Unable to find patient profile - Please have a chat with your clinic.
Once the details match, Cliniq Apps seamlessly pulls the correct patient profile from your system.
By following these simple steps, you’ll have a dedicated in-practice form icon on your iPad. This setup leverages the power of Cliniq Apps to reduce administrative time, prevent errors, and improve the overall patient experience. Start streamlining your clinic today and let Cliniq Apps handle the details behind the scenes, so you can focus on providing top-notch patient care.
