To find an existing Patient in WriteUpp, simply enter their name, date of birth, postcode or email into the Search field at the top of the screen and press enter or click on the search button.

You will then be presented with a list of patients who match these results. If one of these is your patient, click on them and they will become your Active Patient.

Alternatively, if you start writing a note and realise you have the wrong active patient, you can click on the 'Switch' icon 

You may wish to perform a search for patients before registering them to avoid duplication if you are unsure of whether they exist in the system or not.
