Patient or client records can be edited when you want to add supplemental information about the person. Since the forms used to collect this information are completely configurable, the order and options to edit the record will vary. For more information about form fields, go to the article Configurable Form Fields.
Note: If you want to update the initial intake information you created when adding a patient, perhaps due to a sudden change in the person's condition prior to transport, a minor error, or to convert staged participants into patients, go to the procedure Update a Patient Record.
