😷Adding Patient Users (Web Portal)
📌 Overview
Before capturing any data using the Wound³ application, it's essential to add a patient to the system. We recommend adding the patient as soon as they are identified, generally at the time they are first onboarded to the application.
ℹ️ Note: Patient Users can be created through both the web and mobile applications. This guide focuses on the web application. For mobile application instructions, refer to these instructions.
