&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;Using the Search Box&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the top of the screen there is the Search box, this is generally the quickest and easiest way of locating a patient within the system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To search for a patient you simply type into the box something to search with and press the Enter key on the keyboard.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can search using any of the information on the Patient tab, it is, however, sensible to use something like Surname, Postcode or a Phone Number.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You do not need to enter the whole field into the search box so, for example, if you were search for a Mr Djokovic you could just type Djo and press enter and it would locate all of the patients who have those three letters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If there is only one result for the search it will automatically be loaded into the Patient’s module.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If there is more than one suitable result you will be presented with a box listing the options, allowing you to choose the correct one.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
