Patient portal
The patient portal is the patient-facing side of Cradlen. It's where patients follow their own care — appointments, prescriptions, test results, and, for pregnancy, their journey. It has its own sign-in, separate from the clinic team.
Signing in
Patients sign in at /patient with their national ID and password. New patients sign up in two quick steps — national ID, phone, and date of birth, then a password and a security question used to recover the account later. A guardian can switch to a dependent's profile from the top bar to follow a child's or relative's care.
Home
The home screen is a care dashboard:
- A greeting and the patient's current journey — for pregnancy, the week, due date, and risk level; otherwise the current care milestone.
- A "Don't forget today" card summarising medicines due, pending tests, and the next visit.
- A journey timeline showing the stages of their care.
Visits
Two lists: upcoming follow-ups, and a history timeline grouped by care journey → episode → visit. Each entry shows the doctor, clinic, specialty, and status.
Medications
Prescriptions grouped by date, newest first. Each shows the prescribing doctor and clinic, and every medicine's form, dose, frequency, and duration.
Tests
Lab tests and imaging, filterable by status and type. Patients can upload their result files (PDF or images) against a test, and remove them again.
Record
The medical record gathers the patient's history — such as OB-GYN history, allergies, and vitals — in collapsible sections. It's read-only.
Notifications & profile
Notifications keep patients up to date; they can mark them read individually or all at once. The profile page lets a patient update their details, change their password, set a security question, and upload a profile photo.
What patients can and can't do
The portal is for following care, not running the clinic
Patients can view their care, upload test result files, manage their profile, and mark notifications read. Booking appointments stays with the clinic, and medication and visit records are read-only — they reflect what the care team has recorded.
