I tried the "Everyone"....does not work well for me. There needs to be a way for the message to be cleared from the "Everyone" box when the message has been taken care of. Perhaps we need an "Everyone" which would be useful to send general messages to everyone but which do not specifically relate to any patients. Then devise a "Jobs To Do" user whose messages would automatically delete once a message has been opened and acted upon and saved or sent back to me.

Seems like we need a patient orders/tasks tab for the chart. It would be nice to be write the order, have it stay with the chart, and then have actions taken on that order stay with the chart. I keep a separate referral/procedure log in excel. It would be nice to have the orders in the patients' charts
I would like another tab for the chart that is all internal messaging regarding the patient. If something was appropriate to be saved to be a permanent part of the chart it could be saved. The yellow sticky is nice, but not enough. If there could be multiple stickies on the chart, not just in a little box, that would be good too. I went to a review course where we took notes on the computer and could add as many sticky notes as we like. The little box for the yellow sticky in our office often gets overlooked.
