# How to use the patients page in TurnUp?

## The patients page gives you a complete overview of a patient at a glance: their appointments, status and communication with the practice.

### 📍 Where do I find the patients page?

1. Go to the TurnUp application.
2. Click **Patients** in the menu.
3. You immediately see the full patient list.

### 📋 The patient list: what each column means

Besides the basic details (name, phone number, date of birth, gender), a few columns help you day to day:

- **Last seen**: the patient's most recent appointment.
- **Next appointment**: what's still coming up, if anything.
- **Waitlist**: whether the patient is waiting for an earlier slot and is on the waitlist.
- **Last contact**: when TurnUp last messaged the patient, and through which channel.
- **App status**: shows whether the patient has the TurnUp app.
- **Notification status**: shows whether the patient has TurnUp notifications switched on.

### ⚙️ What you can look up per patient

Use the search bar at the top to look up a patient. You can search by name, email address or phone number.

Each row in the list has a set of actions on the right:

- **View**: opens the full patient card.  
  ![Patient-card-EN-1](https://helpdesk.turnup.world/hs-fs/hubfs/Patient-card-EN-1.png?width=670&height=498&name=Patient-card-EN-1.png)
- **Edit**: change the patient's details.
- **View communication**: opens the communication log, filtered to this patient.
  
  ![View-communication-patient-button](https://helpdesk.turnup.world/hs-fs/hubfs/View-communication-patient-button.png?width=236&height=242&name=View-communication-patient-button.png)
  
  ![Patient-communication-overview](https://helpdesk.turnup.world/hs-fs/hubfs/Patient-communication-overview.png?width=670&height=385&name=Patient-communication-overview.png)
- **Invite**: invite the patient to the TurnUp app.
- **Enable/disable notifications**: switch the practice's messages for this patient on or off. More info on notifications [here](https://helpdesk.turnup.world/en/praktijk/hoe-kan-ik-een-pati%C3%ABnt-uitschrijven-voor-turnup-meldingen?hsLang=en).
- **Delete**: deletes the patient record.
- **Remove and exclude from sync**: this is the GDPR deletion. Permanent and cannot be undone. More info [here](https://helpdesk.turnup.world/en/praktijk/pati%C3%ABnt-verwijderen-gdpr?hsLang=en).

### ✉️ Inviting patients to the app

At the top of the list you'll find the **Invite on app** button. This lets you invite all patients at once, with the choice between everyone or only patients with an upcoming appointment.

### 💬 From patient to communication, and back

Want to see not just the patient card, but also exactly what the practice sent that patient? You can do that in three places:

- **From a patient**: click **View communication** to open the log with all messages for that patient.
- **From an appointment**: click the communication icon on an appointment to open the conversation for that exact appointment straight away.
- **From a no-show**: the no-show dialog has the same link, so you immediately see what was sent before the patient didn't show up.

### 🚀 What's in it for you

- You find the right patient, or a whole group, faster by searching or filtering on things like waitlist, last contact or notification status.
- You get a complete overview of the communication with a patient, or just one specific appointment, in a single click.
- You invite all patients to download the TurnUp app in one go.
