Where Vision Anywhere is not able to check that the Patient Summary does not contain the latest clinical information, 'Record last refreshed dd-mmm-yyyy hh.mm' where dd-mmm-yyyy is the date and hh.mm is the time, displays at the bottom of your screen:

Note - This does not necessarily mean the record is out of date, just Vision Anywhere cannot check it. If there is no warning, you are viewing the latest data.
