Portal 20 paediatrician

Paediatrics Portal

Every child's health, tracked from day one.

The ELMED Paediatrics Portal is built for HPCSA-registered paediatricians. Monitor child growth against WHO centiles, manage vaccination schedules, track developmental milestones and write weight-adjusted prescriptions, all from a child-focused clinical portal.

Built for Paediatrician

HPCSA-registered paediatricians, paediatric subspecialists and neonatologists working in private practice, hospital paediatric units and community child health settings.

Everything in the Paediatrics Portal

Growth Charts

Plot height, weight and head circumference against WHO centile curves for age and sex. Growth is tracked across every consultation.

Vaccination Schedule

Manage the South African EPI vaccination schedule per patient. Track which vaccines have been given, which are due and which are overdue.

Developmental Milestones

Record developmental milestone assessments: gross motor, fine motor, speech, language and social development.

Weight-Based Prescribing

The prescription form includes a weight-based dosing calculator. Doses calculate automatically from the child's current weight.

Parent and Guardian Access

Parents see their child's growth chart, vaccinations and records in the ELMED family portal. Records are shared automatically with linked guardians.

Paediatrician Microsite

Premium paediatricians get a public microsite at /paeds/your-name with age groups seen, languages spoken and a patient contact form.

Which vaccination schedule does ELMED use?
The portal uses the South African Expanded Programme on Immunisation schedule as the default. Custom schedules can be noted per patient.
