Patient journey

Getting started as an Ambulant+ patient.

This is the master patient journey guide for Ambulant+. Use it to create your account, secure access, complete your profile, book a clinician, prepare for your session, follow treatment plans, use CarePort or MedReach, and turn Ambulant+ into a personal health management suite.

Follow this sequence to reduce failed bookings, weak triage, missed prescriptions, delayed tests and poor follow-up.

Lifecycle sequence

Follow the journey from first login to continuous care.

Ambulant+ works best when patients move through account access, profile readiness, booking, preparation, consultation and post-care continuity as one connected workflow.

Core patient resources

Everything important now links from one place.

These resources expand the patient journey into focused operational guides for secure access, booking, preparation, after-care, CarePort, MedReach and ongoing health management.

Profile readiness checklist

A complete profile helps clinicians prepare faster and reduces avoidable delays.

Full name, contact details and preferred communication route.
Date of birth, demographic information and identity details where required.
Emergency contact and relationship.
Allergies, medicine reactions and important safety alerts.
Current medicines, doses, frequency and adherence challenges.
Known medical conditions, previous operations and major hospital admissions.
Medical-aid, sponsor, wallet, card or other supported payment details.
Default delivery address for CarePort medicine fulfilment where available.

Better symptom descriptions

Strong triage helps the clinician understand risk, urgency and what to prepare before the session.

Weak

I have chest pain.

Better

Central chest tightness for two days, worse when walking upstairs, associated with sweating and shortness of breath.

Weak

My child has fever.

Better

Fever since yesterday evening, highest 39°C, reduced briefly after paracetamol, now with poor feeding and reduced wet nappies.

Weak

I feel dizzy.

Better

Dizziness when standing for three days, worse in the morning, associated with palpitations and home BP readings around 95/60.

Supported devices

Prepare devices before the clinician needs them.

Device-supported care works best when the patient has charged, tested and understood the relevant device workflow before the appointment begins.

After-care continuity

The care loop continues after the consultation.

A strong patient journey does not end with the video call. Ambulant+ should help patients move from clinician advice into prescriptions, diagnostics, reminders, follow-up and long-term health management.

Read after-care guide

Read your consultation summary and treatment instructions.

Check whether prescriptions were routed to CarePort where available.

Check whether lab orders or home blood draw workflows were routed to MedReach where available.

Set or confirm medication reminders and care-plan tasks.

Book follow-up with the same clinician if continuity is important, or another clinician if needed.

Escalate urgently if symptoms worsen or clinician safety-net instructions are triggered.

Personal health management

Use Ambulant+ beyond one-off consultations.

Ambulant+ should feel like a personal health management suite: reminders, home vitals, self-checks, Health Passport, trend context, family care and prevention-focused follow-up.

Health Passport

Keep health context, vitals, records, summaries and care readiness easier to review over time.

Reminders

Use medication, hydration, appointment, follow-up and care-plan reminders where configured.

Home monitoring

Use supported readings and self-checks to prepare better reviews and recognise concerning changes earlier.

Safety

Know when not to wait.

Ambulant+ supports structured remote care, but emergency symptoms and certain clinical situations still require urgent or in-person assessment.

Call local emergency services immediately for severe, life-threatening or rapidly worsening symptoms.

Follow clinician instructions if you are advised to attend urgent or in-person care.

Do not rely on device readings alone if you feel seriously unwell.

Common questions

Patient journey FAQ.

Short answers to the questions patients are likely to ask before their first Ambulant+ consultation.

What is the best first step for a new Ambulant+ patient?

Create a patient account, complete your health profile, prepare payment or medical-aid details, then review the patient account access and booking guides before your first consultation.

Can I use passkey sign-in immediately?

No. You first sign in with email and password or email OTP, then add a passkey from Security settings. After that, supported devices can use passkey sign-in.

What should I write in my symptom description?

Include when symptoms started, severity, progression, associated symptoms, triggers, medicines tried, home vitals and any red flags.

Should I take vitals before my appointment?

Where supported and appropriate, take requested lobby vitals before the session so the clinician has better context.

What happens after a consultation?

You should review your treatment plan, follow reminders, check prescription or diagnostic workflows, and book follow-up if advised.

Secure platform access

Enter the right Ambulant+ workspace.

Ambulant+ separates public information from protected workspaces, giving patients, clinicians, pharmacies, diagnostics teams, clients and administrators a role-appropriate route into the platform.
