Practise a health and medication workflow

Use a training system with invented people. The medicines are illustrations only, not clinical advice.

You need:

  • Ruth Evans, admitted to Sunrise Elm Lodge (time zone Europe/London);
  • Tom's user with the nurse permissions, linked to an active employee;
  • Grace as a second employee, for the witness step.
