Do the daily fridge check
Record the medicines fridge temperature in the app each day, sign it as done, and know what to do if a reading is out of range.
The person your practice has given this check to does it once a day.
What you'll need
The fridge thermometer, showing the current, minimum and maximum temperatures.
Steps
- Open Today's checks. On a phone, tap Today at the bottom of the screen.
- Choose Medicines fridge temperature log.
- Type the temperature showing now into Current (°C).
- Type the lowest temperature into Minimum (°C).
- Type the highest temperature into Maximum (°C).
- Under Thermometer reset, choose Yes or No.
- Write anything unusual in Note (optional).
- Check your numbers, because a signature can't be deleted afterwards.
- Press Sign as done. You will see Logged and signed.
If something goes wrong
- A reading is outside 2 to 8 °C. A message says it is outside the safe range. If it needs action today, tell your practice manager now and say what you did in the note. Then press Sign as done. The reading is flagged to your practice manager and added to the Action plan.
- Sign as done is greyed out. The line underneath tells you which number or answer is missing.
- You answered No to Thermometer reset. This is not counted as a problem.
- The check isn't listed. Choose See whole practice or Whole practice. If it still isn't there, ask your practice manager to check the fridge is on the Equipment page.
- It says the check is for another date. You can sign it on that day.
- A Confirm signature box appears. Your practice uses stronger signing. Choose Continue with passkey or Use authenticator code.
- It says the practice needs a subscription. Ask the practice owner.
