Designer Profiles Overview
Overview
Profiles in the Designer define the structure of information displayed in the Care Portal for different entity types – primarily patients, but also for contacts and other record types. A profile consists of fields, sections, and layout configurations that determine what information care team members see and can edit.
What Profiles Control
Which fields are displayed – standard fields (name, DOB, contact info) and custom fields (CDTs)
Field order and grouping – how fields are arranged into sections
Field editability – which fields are read-only vs. editable
Conditional display – fields that appear only when certain conditions are met
Types of Profiles
Patient Profile – the main record view for patients
Contact Profile – the view for non-patient contacts linked to patients
Custom entity profiles – if your organization uses custom entity types
Configuring a Profile
In the Designer, navigate to Profiles.
Select the profile type you want to configure (e.g., Patient).
Click to open the profile editor.
Add, remove, or reorder sections and fields.
Configure field properties (label, editability, required status).
Create a draft and publish.
Adding Custom Fields to a Profile
Custom fields from your Custom Data Types (CDTs) can be added to profiles. See CDT Designer for how to create CDTs and their fields.
Publishing
Profile changes must be published in the Designer before they appear in the Care Portal. Always test profile changes in a sandbox environment before publishing to production.
