Patient profiles are created for each patient added to your dispensary. From these profiles, practitioners and staff can manage profile details, monitor adherence to plans, review and track purchases, place orders on behalf of patients, and more.
Navigating to patient profiles
To access a patient profile:

Editing a patient/client profile
Once patients have logged in to their accounts, they can manage their profile details on their own from the account settings page in their accounts. Practitioners and staff can also edit patient profiles, with some limitations.
Practitioners and staff can update any of the following in a patient's profile:
- First and last name
- Email address — only until the user has signed in.
- Individual discount — dispensaries opted in to earn a profit only.
- First product order discount — dispensaries opted in to earn a profit only.
- Additional information: date of birth & biological sex
