> Milford, OH, January 7, 2003 -- Accu-Med Services, Inc. announced today the
> release of MDS2Go, the first PDA (Personal Digital Assistant)-based MDS data entry
> solution for skilled nursing facilities.
>
> Using MDS2Go, facility staff can enter assessments into a Palm� OS-based PDA
> (personal digital assistant), which then synchronizes the information directly into
> Accu-Care for Windows� clinical software. Multiple clinical disciplines can complete
> and "hot sync" sections of the MDS independently, at any time. Many assessments can
> be maintained at once, enabling users to complete only the sections for which they
> are responsible without interrupting the work flow of other disciplines.
>
> Initial response to MDS2Go has been positive. "MDS2Go is an intuitive, secure,
> and affordable way to get accurate information into the MDS," said Accu-Med Clinical
> Product Director Sue Lewis, R.N. "It eliminates the need to transfer information
> another caregiver has written on a slip of paper."
>
> MDS2Go is also HIPAA friendly, with passwords required to log in. In addition,
> MDS2Go tracks and logs each change to the assessment, by user, providing an audit
> trail. If the PDA will be used elsewhere, MDS2Go allows users to temporarily remove
> all resident data to ensure confidentiality.
>
> For more information, call Accu-Med Services at 1-800-777-9141.
