ID Directors and Supervisors will have read/write access to the form. No other users may view or edit this form for any client.
The Update Client Data form allows changing previously entered demographic information that was collected in the Pre-Admission or Admission forms. Any data that is changed in the Update Client Data form will be updated throughout Avatar when submitted.
NOTE: This is the ONLY way to change a client name after the admission process is complete. Please do not return to the Admission form and attempt to make changes.
The form is client-based and can be accessed through the Home View, from within a client chart, or by following the menu path Avatar PM/Client Management/Client Information/Update Client Data. Information displayed is collected from the Pre-Admit or Admission forms that have been previously completed.
Changing the Client Name will add the original name to the first available Alias entry in the Alias subsection. Update as much information as required, including name, sex, birthday and address information, ethnicity/language/religion data, contact info, smoking status/assessment date. etc.
Enter any known alias information as appropriate. Pregnancy and due date information can be entered if required. The Name Qualifier section is used to specify if release of the client's name is allowed. The Protection Indicator field is used to specify if the client's information can be shared with others or should be kept private. If Yes is selected, enter the date which protection should occur.
Click the blue Submit button when complete to enter the form into the record. When done, the client's demographic information is updated throughout Avatar.
Alias information can be used to increase search terms related to a client. Examples include alternate spellings, nicknames, preferred forms of names (Bob for Robert), etc.
