# Log temperature, medicine and vaccines

Tap Temperature, Medicine or Vaccine on Home, fill in the reading, the medicine and dose, or the vaccine name, and tap its Save button.

Cami keeps a record of what you enter. It does not give medical advice, and it does not say what a reading, a dose or a schedule should be.

## Log a temperature

1. On Home, tap **Temperature** .
2. If you took it earlier, tap **Now** next to **When** and pick the time.
3. Under **Reading**, choose **°C** or **°F**, then tap **Temperature** and type the reading.
4. Optional: tap where you took it: **Forehead**, **Ear**, **Underarm**, **Rectal** or **Oral**.
5. Tap **Save Temperature**.

Cami remembers the site you used last. Tap it again to clear it.

The unit you choose is used everywhere in Cami on this iPhone. You can also set it in **More** , **Settings** , **General** , **Temperature**.

## Log a medicine dose

1. On Home, tap **Medicine** .
2. Tap a recent medicine chip, or tap **Search or add medicine** and pick or type a name.
3. Optional: tap **Add dose**, type the amount and choose its unit.
4. To log another medicine given at the same time, tap **Add another medicine**.
5. Tap **Save Medicine**.

With one medicine on the form, the line under the card says when it was last given, for example “Last: 4h ago”. The recent chips carry the name and the dose you used before.

Log what your pediatrician or the label told you. Cami does not check doses.

## Log a vaccine

1. On Home, tap **Vaccine** .
2. Tap **Search or add vaccine** and pick or type the name.
3. Set the date under **When** if it was not today.
4. Tap **Save Vaccine**.

If your child already has this vaccine in Cami, the form says which one this would be, such as the 2nd. It counts from your log only. Your child’s last few shots show on the form too.

For the official vaccine schedule, ask your pediatrician.

## Where to see them

Temperature and medicine show as **Temp** and **Medicine** pills on Home on the days you log them. Past entries are on the Timeline and under **Health** in Insights. Tap a Home pill to see the day’s readings and doses.

**Note**

If you are worried about a fever or a medicine, call your pediatrician. The AAP’s [fever page on HealthyChildren.org](https://www.healthychildren.org/English/health-issues/conditions/fever/Pages/default.aspx) explains fever for parents.

## Troubleshooting

### Cami says a reading needs to be between two numbers

The number is outside the range Cami accepts for the unit that is on. Check the unit: a reading in °F typed while °C is on does not fit.

### Cami says a dose needs both its amount and its unit

Enter both the amount and the unit, or leave the dose empty.
