Clicking on Assessment whilst in VIEW Mode gives an overview of that resident’s most recent assessment, with a percentage health scoring for each set of questions within each section. Switch to EDIT Mode and the first Assessment question is shown (Resident’s Rights), with the option to click on any Assessment Section heading to see when that section was last assessed and by whom, or to start a re-assessment. A legend on each page shows how many questions in the complete assessment are current, how many are due for an update and how many have not been answered.
Assessments amount to answering a series of multiple-choice questions, the beauty being that each next question is determined by the answer to the previous question, thereby ensuring that only the necessary questions within each section are asked.
Separate Assessments exist for Waterlow, MUST, Fall Risk and Pain. Complete sections can be selected or de-selected for the Home overall or for individual Residents. A default date alarm setting can be given to each section to flag an overdue assessment to the Home Status page.
Care Plans
Care Plans are produced on completion of an assessment, simply by clicking on the Prepare Care Plan button. A copy of the existing Care Plan showing the date of the last assessment and the name of the assessor can be seen by clicking on the Care Plan index whilst in View mode. Care Plan content can be altered by switching to EDIT Mode, any changes being saved automatically, with the option of being able to carry forward selected sections of an existing Care Plan to the next version without alteration.
This page also gives the history for the section being viewed, showing the version being looked at. It is also possible to view all past versions, giving a complete audit trail.
