ChartFlow Team
As part our vision to create a package of low-cost and free simulation materials for Students, we’re excited to introduce a series of Courses available for Free!
These Courses include a free electronic health record (EHR) Simulation for Students, with the ability to build new patients, access pre-built Case Studies, practice documentation, and more.
Here’s more information on the first Course we’ve created in our educational EHR: Charting 101: Introduction to EHRs and Documentation

To keep things simple, we’ve provided all the information students need to enter in the Activity’s Instructions.

This Activity is especially perfect for CNA, LPN / LVN, ADN, and BSN students. But we welcome all students in all healthcare programs!

The final Activity includes 6 of our Template Patients, available for Students to freely explore, review documentation, and practice charting on.
This is the perfect place to make mistakes, review Case Studies, think critically about the patient’s plan of care, other clinicians and their involvement, and more.
