Every cell on the timeline is coloured by its administration status. Five core states, plus badges layered on top.
Cell colours
Colour | Status | What it means |
|---|---|---|
Green | Given | Successfully administered (outcome 1) or witnessed-and-verified (outcome 2). |
Amber / yellow | Due now | Within the administration buffer window (before or after the scheduled time). Take action. |
Grey | Scheduled | Not yet within the buffer window. Nothing to do yet. |
Red | Missed | Buffer has expired. The dose is overdue and a missed-dose alert has been raised. |
White / blank | No dose | Not scheduled at this slot. |
Badges (on top of the cell colour)
Violet "PRN" badge — a PRN (as-needed) administration was recorded at this slot.
Yellow "Off" badge — an off-schedule administration.
Violet "Late" badge — a retrospective recording (entered after the dose was actually given).
Bell icon — a missed-dose alert has been sent.
Heads up — There isn't a separate "Overdue" colour in Carerealm today — what looks overdue to you is the amber "Due now" cell with a bell icon on it (signalling that the missed-notification timer has fired). Once the after-buffer expires, the cell flips to red "Missed".
Tip — Scan the dashboard for red and amber first thing each shift. Those are the only states that demand an action; green and grey are background context.
