HIMSS - Add a Referral

HIMSS can record student referrals to other agencies.


Add a Referral 

  1. Click ‘Referrals
  2. Click ‘Add New’ and a popup will appear
  3. Enter in the required information including Service Partner (this list of Service Partners can be edited in Data Entry Values)
  4. Be sure to enter a date for a follow-up.
    This is the date that the person entering this referral should follow-up with the student or his/her family to see if they received services from the listed Service Provider. A Follow-up Report in the HIMSS report section can be printed each week to know who to follow-up with.
  5. Click Save & Close 

**Note, this form can be accessed later by clicking the edit link. This should be done to record if a follow-up was completed and what the referrals outcome was.
