Overview
A location can be Open, Closed or Held:
- Open - the Location is available for use throughout the system, you can create Patients at that Locations, send emails/SMS from the location, select it from pick lists, etc.
- Closed - the Location is no-longer available to use, possibly permanently (e.g. We closed the Melbourne clinic as it was not profitable)
- Held - effectively the same as Closed from how CareRight works, but offers an alternative description for the user to perhaps indicate the location, bed or room is temporarily unavailable.
