Make dosages not required -Medication calculator

The built in calculator is great, however making it required to fill out before inputting the medication is an annoyance and making it longer for us to fill out forms, and making template building difficult. Dosages change, and many dosages do not match the mg/ml concentration, and therefore it alarms even when a concentration and amount is inputted. Therefore, I have to input a random dosage when putting in templates, or I have to figure out the dosage so that it matches my amount.


I don't particularly use this calculator, as I have to rely on the weight being correct in smartflow, and I have to rely on the dosage already put in, which after inputting the correct weight, I have to make sure to refresh any that were already automatically calculated for me.


The calculator should be optional, perhaps with a minimize and maximize if you want to use it within the box. But definitely allow to be able to continue after only inputting an amount with concentration.

    You can add a medication to a treatement sheet or save as a template with the dosage blank. You simply add the medication you want, you can set how often or leave that as none and don't hit save. Tap out of the medication box. It will had the medication the treatment sheet and put a red bar around it alerting there is no dosage currently added and if you go to sign off on the medication it will present you with the dosage calculator to either enter the dosage or enter the total amount you plan to give if you wish to not use the calculator that is built in to calculate the amount.
