Word 2016 - Insert text within region containing text boxes and arrows

Hi,

Please see the attached redacted doc and the screenshot below. I created this Word doc using text boxes and arrows (the latter via Insert --> Shapes)

I'd like to insert some text (e.g. PatientID) to the right of the green arrows pointing from Vitals to Patient and Insurance to Patient. However, I can't find a way to place the cursor at that spot. Since this region is merely a conglomeration of components - text boxes and arrows - rather than a single image - I'm baffled as to why I can't "go there".

I've attached the document in case anyone wants to play with it. :)

Thanks,
Steve

@GrahamSkan-
OK, I'll try moving the text with tabs, indentation, etc. If that doesn't work, I like the idea of a border-less textbox. Nice out-of-the-box thinking. :)
Thanks!

OK, I'm going with the text box. Where I can I find the Text Box Tools 'supertab'? Thanks.

Thanks, Graham. I credited your two responses. Also credited myself (0 points) to the link regarding removing the borders from a text box.

I appreciate the help. Have a good weekend.
