Click on the 'Add patient D.O.B' outlined in green, which is located in the 'Patient details' section on the incident page.
2. Click on the green calendar symbol on the right side of the space bar.
3. This will bring up the years of birth. Just click on the right or left arrows to find the year applicable.
4. Once you have selected the year, the months of the year will then pop up. Again, click the month which applies, then select the date.
The date of birth is now logged, now you can continue recording the incident.
