Student Mode Settings

For facilities that have students, there are three different configuration options that you can use to prevent students from using tools that quickly populate data. To implement these, make sure that the student user is in the student user group.

  • On the Practice Config practice template, there is a setting to activate student mode for the pediatric language exams.

When a student is assigned to Student signoff rights on the System Config practice template, they will see colored boxes on the Peds Lang exams.

The yellow boxes indicate fields that the student must calculate the entry for or look up values in a test booklet.

When the student enters a value in a field, the field either turns red, if the value is incorrect, or green if it is correct. If there are any boxes that are still red when the therapist tries to submit the charges, the application blocks submission until the student or therapist corrects the issue.

When the therapist opens a Pediatric Language exam that the student has filled out, they see the colored boxes. The therapist can then remove the student mode by selecting the Exit Student Mode button.

Exiting student mode automatically recalculates all fields and removes the colors.

If a therapist initially opens any of the Pediatric Language exams that a student has not entered any data in, the exam does not show the colored boxes. The therapist does not need to exit student mode unless a student has entered values on the exam.
