If you have phrases that you frequently use when charting patient notes or a treatment plan, the Text Shortcut feature enables you to turn any block of text into a shortcut. Text shortcuts can be created in the Text Shortcuts page under My Settings, in a treatment plan, or from within a note. 

You can edit an existing shortcut to make changes that will only apply for future use. When a shortcut is no longer applicable, deactivate or delete the existing shortcut.

Access Text Shortcuts

Deactivate or Delete Shortcut

There are multiple ways to deactivate or delete a shortcut. However, it is recommended to review the text shortcut first to verify the shortcut should be removed before proceeding.

  1. Click on the shortcut name. The Edit Shortcut pop-up window opens.
  2. Deactivate or delete the text shortcut:
    • To move the text shortcut to the Inactive list, click deactivate.
    • To permanently remove the text shortcut, click delete. The Delete Shortcut pop-up window opens. Then, click Delete to confirm.
