When was it taken?

Now is selected by default. Choose Another time to set a date (defaults to today) and time if you are backfilling an earlier reading. Future times are not allowed.

Visit packets

When you create a visit packet PDF for an appointment, Carakin includes a Recent vitals section with the latest reading of each type from the 14 days before that visit. That keeps clinic packets useful even when appointments are with different specialists.
