== Overview ==<br />
<br />
This flow describes how to print a [[Concepts/Medication Request|prescription]] from an encounter in Care. You can print one prescription, or every prescription in the encounter.<br />
<br />
== Pre-requisites ==<br />
<br />
* The patient is registered in Care, and you open the encounter for that patient.<br />
* The encounter has at least one prescription with medicines on it.<br />
* You have the permissions listed below.<br />
<br />
== Permissions ==<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable"<br />
! Permission !! Access<br />
|-<br />
| Can view clinical data about patients || Lets you open and print the prescription.<br />
|-<br />
| Can Read encounter related clinical data || Lets you open and print the prescriptions in the encounter.<br />
|}<br />
<br />
{{Note|1=You need at least one of these permissions to print a prescription.}}<br />
<br />
== Steps ==<br />
<br />
=== 1. Open the prescription view ===<br />
<br />
Open the encounter for the patient. Go to the prescription view for that encounter. See [[Flows/View prescriptions and medications for an encounter|View prescriptions and medications for an encounter]].<br />
<br />
=== 2. Print one prescription ===<br />
<br />
Open the prescription that you want to print. Select '''Print'''. Care opens a print-ready view of the medicines on that prescription.<br />
<br />
{{Note|1=Care does not offer the print action when the prescription has no medicines on it.}}<br />
<br />
{{Note|1=Press <code>p</code> to print from any screen that shows a print action.}}<br />
<br />
=== 3. Print every prescription in the encounter ===<br />
<br />
Select '''Print All Prescriptions'''. Care opens a print-ready view that covers every prescription in the encounter.<br />
<br />
== Expected Outcome ==<br />
<br />
* Care shows a print-ready view of the prescription that you selected.<br />
* Care shows a print-ready view of every prescription in the encounter when you select '''Print All Prescriptions'''.<br />
