Waitlist page: search and filters
The Waitlist page provides a central hub for managing all appointments. You can:
- View and organise referrals by status, urgency, service area or rota type.
- Search for specific referrals or use one of three dashboards to see an overview of all service areas, referral status, or referrals within a specific service area. The left-hand navigation menu offers enhanced filtering to help you quickly find and manage the referrals you need.

The referral search allows you to search for a patient by entering the first name and surname, NHS number, or referral reference number.
RIVIAM will complete a search based on the information provided, and the search results will appear. To open a referral from the search results, select View referral
