Override logs

A filterable list of every safety override that's been performed in this area.

Every time a safety warning is overridden, Carerealm logs it. The Override Logs page lists every override for the area, filterable by type and date.

Override types listed here

  • allergy — allergy alert overridden.

  • drug_interaction — interaction alert overridden.

  • max_daily_dose — daily-dose ceiling overridden.

  • max_daily_blocked — daily-dose ceiling that was hard-blocked (no override path).

Note — Off-schedule administrations are tracked separately in Approvals, not in Override Logs. The same applies to sheet_expired and medication_expired overrides — they're recorded but surface in the activity log rather than this page.

What each row shows

  • Timestamp and overridden by (user).

  • Type (the four above).

  • Reason (free text).

  • Approved by (when senior approval was required).

Audit use

Frequent overrides on a specific medication or by a specific carer warrant follow-up. Don't leave them unchecked — they're where audit risk lives.
