In Apollo, the General Note feature lets you quickly write down important information that isn't linked to a specific patient, task, or appointment. It's perfect for saving reminders, internal updates, or anything you'd like to refer to later.
Each note automatically includes your name, the date and time, and can be marked as important to help it stand out. You can also print or delete notes anytime.
General Notes help staff keep track of important, non-patient-specific information in one place. They improve communication, reduce missed updates, and make it easy to document internal notes. Since notes include the author, timestamp, and an "important" flag, they’re easy to organize and reference later without affecting patient records or clinical workflows
