Our working party for nursing homes in our division would like all nursing
homes to have computerised Dr & nurses records.  Using MD or BP can make
this happen.  Nurses log on as nurses & do their notes & Dr logs on as Dr &
does his / her notes.  Every-one must be able to read all entries whether
made by a Dr or nurse, physio. Etc.  What clinical ins & outs & obs do
nursing homes do that can't be catered for?  If you let me know, we can work
on this.

David,
Is the endeavour solely for benefit of the GPs who visit these facilities or
are the facilities wanting to use the EHR for their own clinical records
too?  If the facilities want to record their data too, I don't know of any
GP software that would cater to the needs a nursing home would have to
capture the clinical ins and outs and obs that they do.

I started looking into this last year, looking for aged care software but
didn't get very far before I made my tree-change.

Of course, if it's just to provide the attending GPs easy access to only
their own notes, I guess it doesn't matter.  I just wondered what nursing
homes were doing with those thousands of dollars they were supposed to get
last year to do major overhauls of their systems.

Cheers,

Jan
