While it seems most changes in V5 are very nice, the vaccines and injections section is a trainwreck.

We give alot of vaccines to people we see once or twice, or every few years. Its for forgein travel. Many of our vaccinations did not Xfer over. And many that we give are not listed in the new system, and there was no way to add them to it. We just went through inputting vaccines for a new travel patient, whom we expect to see just once more (maybe) for her 2nd Hep A shot. We had to give Yellow fever, Tdap, polio, hep a, memingococcal, and oral typhoid. We had to put the Tdap and the Hep A in the "Health Maintenance" section, but could not add the other vaccines there. The others had to be input manually in the "Injections" section or "Non HM". This section doesnt have populated drop-down menus, but we should have been able to add these vaccines to the other section. Then, you cannot modify or delete an entry as the admin, so when the MA listed the incorrect location (R Deltoid, not L Deltoid) we couldnt change it. We cant delete a vaccine once input either, so its a good thing the patient didnt change their mind and not take the oral typhoid after we logged it in. I also could no longer just print a simple Vaccination Record. Now you have to print two parts -- 1 page for the Health Maintenance vaccinations, and another separate page for the Non-HM/Injection vaccinations.

Well, this is a beta version after all. I wanted to use it so that i could complain about things like this and try to get them to change it. I have sent in my "Recommended Improvement" email from within AC. I just hope they change it.
