It is a legal requirement for each patient to provide informed consent to the in-person or virtual minor ailment service. Patient consent to minor ailment assessment is documented at the beginning of each assessment algorithm through a check box.
Patients must also give verbal consent to MAPflow’s privacy policy. Each pharmacist should print out a paper copy of the Privacy Policy as well as the patient-facing one page information sheet of the privacy policy, found at https://mapflow.ca/privacy. Display the information sheet where the patients can see it. If the patient would like to read the full privacy policy, they can use the QR code on the information sheet or the pharmacist can provide a paper copy for them to read. For a virtual visit, the pharmacist can provide the url to the privacy policy (https://mapflow.ca/privacy). Patient consent to MAPflow’s Privacy Policy is documented at the beginning of each assessment algorithm through a check box.
