User manual
A quick guide to running your clinic on Tend HMS — by role, step by step.
Signing in
- Enter your clinic code (ask your admin) and press Continue.
- Enter your username or phone and password, then Sign in.
- You land on the screen for your role. Switch screens from the left sidebar.
Forgot the clinic code or password? Your clinic admin can reset it under Admin → Staff.
Reception
Register · Queue · Billing
- Register a patient: Reception → Register. Name + mobile are required; add age or date of birth (a future DOB is rejected).
- Check in (issue a token): search the patient → Check in. A doctor is optional — choose “No doctor (walk-in)” for clinics where the doctor isn't a separate login.
- Already in queue? the row shows “In queue · #N” instead of a Check-in button — no duplicate tokens.
- Queue: Reception → Queue shows everyone waiting. Booked-but-not-arrived appointments can be Checked in or Cancelled there. Use the “⋯” menu to Mark no-show or Cancel visit.
- Print the OP slip: open the token slip — in pen-and-paper clinics the doctor writes the prescription by hand in the ℞ area below.
Doctor
Consultation · Prescription
- Open a waiting patient from the queue to start a consultation.
- Record chief complaint, examination, prescription (search the medicine catalogue), and advice / follow-up.
- Sign to lock the consultation and generate the prescription PDF, which can be printed or sent on WhatsApp.
Lab
Orders · Results
- New order: Lab → + New order. Two steps — pick a patient, then select one or more panels; press Create order.
- No panels showing? the test catalogue hasn't been set up — ask an admin to configure it.
- Enter results, then verify and release; print the report.
Pharmacy
Dispense · GST invoice
- Dispense against a visit or as a walk-in; pick medicines from the catalogue.
- A GST invoice is generated automatically.
IPD (inpatient)
Admit · Charges · Discharge
- Admit: IPD → + Admit patient. You need an available bed first (added by an admin under Manage rooms). Set the admitting doctor — charges default to them.
- Add charges: consultation (pick a doctor; a third-party consultant can bill separately), pharmacy (pick a medicine), procedures. Description is optional.
- Transfer doctor: reassign the doctor-of-record any time — the history is preserved.
- Discharge: fill the discharge summary (diagnosis, treatment, medications, follow-up) and print it.
Admin
Staff · Rooms · Settings
- Staff: add users and roles (admin, reception, doctor, nurse, pharmacist, lab).
- Rooms & beds: IPD → Manage rooms (admin only).
- Pricing, hospital identity, working hours live under Settings — these flow onto every slip and invoice.
Look for the (i) icon next to a button or field anywhere in the app — it explains what a step needs before you can continue.
