Import Notes from the Ocean Portal into Your EMR

Once your patient has filled out some forms, you can import the resultant Ocean-generate notes into the corresponding patient's chart in the EMR.

There are two methods which you can use to import notes from the Ocean Portal into your EMR.

Copy-Paste Method

  • Find the patient in the list that you would like to import (you may optionally use the browser’s Find feature to search for the patient’s name).
  • Click on the patient. You should see the note appear, pre-selected (highlighted) for quick copying.
  • Copy the note text to your clipboard (Command-C on a Mac or Ctrl-C on Windows).
  • Open your EMR and prepare to add a new progress note to the patient.
  • Paste the note text (Command-V on a Mac or Ctrl-V on Windows). Save your note (if required). The note should now be accessible and searchable within your EMR.

Print-to-PDF Method

  • Find the patient in the list that you would like to import (you may optionally use the browser’s Find feature to search for the patient’s name).
  • Click on the patient. You should see the note appear.
  • Press the 'Print Report' button to launch your web browser's printing dialogue.
  • Use your browser's printing dialogue to save the note as a PDF to your computer.
  • Insert the PDF document into the chart of the appropriate patient in your EMR.
