New Clinical Features Now Available
ULTRACare's Clinical Applications now feature more electronic charting features. The newest of these is the eMAR and eTAR. Behind the scenes, there are user definable codes that enable the use of these including the Interval, Side Effects, Med/Treatment Cart, and User Security Codes. The proper use of these codes will allow you to identify specific rooms and beds for a med or treatment cart which will then link to the residents in those locations. ULTRACare will display the residents in room order for ease of documentation. Electronic signatures can also be enabled for the MDS and Physicians Orders in the User Security Codes, requiring the use of a PIN to identify the user.

There is much more to tell about how to implement these features and we have published a document that will help you do so. Follow this link to our Secure Site and log in with your normal customer login and password: (link to be provided).
