Answers Clinical (EHR) Solution

 Work Smarter, Provide Better Care, Optimize Reimbursements

Specifically designed for Long Term Care organizations, the fully certified Answers™ EHR solution connects staff, residents and management with up-to-the-moment information across the entire continuum of care.

Easy to Use 

Connect to the latest information across all disciplines and departments in a single on-line resident profile. Toggling between all clinical areas in a resident’s SmartChart is quick and efficient without navigating menus. Documentation of point of care items like vitals, ADLs and Care Plans is simple using touch screen tablets or iPads.

Produce Accurate and Consistent Documentation

Create and maintain comprehensive assessments. A library of pre-built assessments is provided, and any number of additional user-defined assessments can be designed to fit the needs of your individual facility.  You can even set your own scores for outcomes benchmarks. 

Provide Continuity of Care

Establish facility-defined workflow processes. Based on your facility’s policies and procedures, and best clinical practices, establish tasks for each process, and set related alerts to be sent to relevant staff members.

Improve Outcomes and Reduce Re-Admissions

View data collected during everyday processes in a format that is easy to view.  Meaningful reporting of real-time data helps identify patterns and trends supporting proactive clinical decision making.

Improve Efficiency

Save time with a fully integrated electronic health record.  Information is automatically updated across the system in accordance with sound clinical practices. Information flows systematically between the MDS, Care Plans, Point of Care, eMAR / eTAR, ID Notes and the SmartChart,  eliminating the need for time consuming information searches. Visualize and manage daily tasks with PowerChart.
