Clinic Admin Workflow

This guide helps clinic administrators use Petaladdin to monitor operations, support staff access, and keep clinic settings accurate.

Dashboard overview screen

Quick guide:

  • 1 changes the dashboard focus to match the area the admin is reviewing.
  • 2 shows appointment load and queue pressure for the day.
  • 3 highlights preventive care activity that may need follow-up.
  • 4 opens quick actions for common operational tasks.

Daily route

  1. Start from the dashboard and review the clinic's operational snapshot.
  2. Check whether staff, appointments, billing, and inventory are moving normally.
  3. Resolve access, settings, or clinic-data issues that block the team.
  4. Review reports, receivables, and low-stock risks.
  5. Close the day by checking exceptions and planning follow-up actions.

Core admin responsibilities

1. Monitor live clinic activity

Use Dashboard Overview, Appointments Report, and Clinical Report to track daily operational health.

2. Support people and access

Use Users, Users and Roles, Permission Roles, and Access Audit to manage staff and permissions safely.

3. Maintain clinic settings

Use Clinics, Settings, and Clinic Switcher when multiple clinics or configuration changes are involved.

4. Review financial and inventory health

Use Billing Report, Inventory Report, Managing Medicines and Stock, and Purchases to support operational decisions.

5. Watch communication and subscriptions

Use Communication and Subscription when reminders, package limits, or renewals affect clinic operations.

Weekly review checklist

  • review inactive or duplicate staff accounts
  • check receivables and refund patterns
  • confirm low-stock or near-expiry items are being handled
  • review subscription limits before staff or clinic slots run out
  • spot-check whether workflows still match clinic policy

When to escalate

Escalate to the platform owner or technical support when:

  • multiple users lose access unexpectedly
  • reports are missing large blocks of data
  • clinic settings changes create billing or tax inconsistencies
  • subscription limits block clinic operations unexpectedly
