Your PCS comes with plenty of “bundled” patients that you can select from for your session, but dependent on your program, you may want to create your own patient scenarios.

You won’t be able to edit/modify the patients that came bundled with your PCS, but you will be able to create a template for your patient using them, which you can then alter to your needs.

Your bundled patient scenarios can be found under the Patients tab on the online application and you’ll notice they appear with a light grey name and description.

To create your patient template, simply open a patient (best to choose one that is closest in content to your planned own patient scenario). Then make a copy of this patient by clicking on the “Copy”  button at the bottom of the pop-up window.

A new pop-up window will appear with your copied patient. 

From this point on, you’ll be able to edit and customize most any aspect of your own patient. Make sure to save your new patient by clicking on OK before you leave the page.

Get started by learning how you can customize basic information related to your patient (such as its name, description, even gender) here.
