At a Glance
Booking a patch test schedules the pre-treatment reaction check in advance of a treatment that requires one, and records it so the treatment can only proceed when a valid test is on file. ClinicSoftware.com links patch tests to the treatments that need them.
How do you book a patch test?
You book the patch test as its own short appointment ahead of the main treatment, and ClinicSoftware.com records it against the client with its date.
Why book a patch test in advance?
Certain treatments require a valid, in-date patch test before they can go ahead. Booking it early means the client is cleared in time and the treatment is safe to proceed.
