Facility nurses and management personnel can add, edit and print notes about individual residents. Facilities may find these records useful to support wound management even after a wound has been closed. You can print all notes or selected notes as PDFs, which can be attached to EHR records for each resident. The name of each person who records a note accompanies each note.
Tap the Resident Notes button on any Resident Information screen:
Tap the button you want: New Note creates a new resident note. PDF All creates a PDF of all notes for this resident. PDF Selected enables you to select notes prior to creating your PDF.
After you have added a resident note, you can edit it by tapping Edit:
