ICANotes Releases New Features for Inpatient Mental Health Records

Top mental health EMR provider releases enhanced functionality to streamline workflow for psychiatric hospitals and other inpatient behavioral health facilities

ANNAPOLIS, MD ( SharewellNewswire.com – July 20, 2012 )  – ICANotes, LLC, the leader in online behavioral health records, today announced program enhancements developed specifically for hospitals and other inpatient mental health facilities. These enhancements consist of:

ê   Clinician Reminder Sheet – A new report functions as a clinician dashboard to documents due or overdue as well as documents which are incomplete or lack electronic signatures. The length of time a clinician has to complete required notes may be set by each individual facility.

ê   Electronic Medication Administration Record (eMAR) – The eMAR provides a complete electronic workflow to enhance nursing efficiency while ensuring medication charting accuracy and safe medication management.

ê   Clinician’s Orders – This area has been expanded to include all types of orders utilized by inpatient settings, including a variety of detox protocols, activity and restriction orders, and dietary orders. Nurses are notified when a new order has been entered.

ê   Verbal Orders – Nurses may enter verbal orders and alert the physician to sign them electronically. The order sheet documents who gave the verbal order, who entered it, and who signed it.

ê   Initial Evaluations - Complete Assessments can be set up so that the portions of the evaluation that are to be completed by each separate discipline are highlighted. Each facility has the option to designate which parts of the Initial Examination their clinicians must complete. This lets ICANotes help facilities meet documentation needs unique to their specific inpatient practice and to comply with documentation requirements mandated by their surveyors or state laws.

ê   Treatment Plans - Clinical reminders can be set up to remind a clinician when a patient’s next Treatment Plan is due. Multiple clinicians can add information to the patient’s Treatment Plan, and the complete Comprehensive Treatment Plan may then be compiled and saved as a clinical note and electronically signed by each clinician.

Developed by a psychiatrist, ICANotes was launched in 1998. Since then, ICANotes has continuously evolved its functionality to maximize its usefulness for all behavioral health professionals. Based on a rapid development platform, ICANotes releases program updates every week. The software design is carefully controlled by the company’s founder and clinical director, Richard Morgenstern, MD, a psychiatrist with an in-depth understanding of how clinicians work.  The result is an intuitive EHR that requires only minimal training.

" ICANotes is being rapidly adopted by inpatient behavioral health organizations, and the clinician’s need are at the forefront of every programming decision we make,” stated Dr. Morganstern. “We never assume that we know what is best, we prefer to be guided by our valued interactions with our users. We have worked closely with a number of facilities to design and test these new features which are intended to automate workflow for the inpatient setting.”

About ICANotes

Now in use by over 3000 providers nationwide, ICANotes has documented more than 3 million patient encounters. As the most feature-rich web-based electronic medical records solution for psychiatry and mental health professionals, ICANotes is well known for its unique button-driven charting capability. The program enables clinicians to quickly create thorough, personalized narrative notes in minutes without typing or dictating. ICANotes is clinician-centric and infinitely scalable, reliably meeting the needs of solo and group practices, hospitals, and large agencies for more than 13 years.

Better Tymes Project and Better Tymes for Women Partner with Launcht.org to Develop iOS Versions of Better Tymes

Charlottesville VA, July 17, 2012.

Jackie and Yale Landsberg, the founders of The Better Tymes Project and Better Tymes for Women are partnering with Launcht.org to raise funds for the development of two IOS versions of Better Tymes' totally unique TrueTyme Android mobile app. And for the same reason that the Landsbergs have just launched a new Android version: Biological clocks can often harm us! Once this first Launcht project is completed, iPhone and iPad users, like Android ones, will be able to self-explore the chronobiologies of their own worlds, at a very basic level of sun time and moon time awareness.

Click here view the video

A recent study of the operation of our biological clocks showed that “Social Jet Lag” (social factor-based disrupted circadian rhythms) can cause obesity. Another study showed that a woman is at risk of becoming infertile if her body's clock is too out of touch with each new day's sunrise and sunset. Even more remarkable is evidence that factoring time of day and night into the administration of cancer drug treatments can often raise the effectiveness of drug use and also reduce side effects. But although billions of science research dollars are being spent on developing advanced “reductionist” drug and gene therapies, the question, “What can positively happen to us holistically when each of us, on our own, is more aware of the passage of sun time and moon time?” is only beginning to be asked.

That bio-time and timing question is long-overdue, because modern life, "mechanical" time, time zones and Daylight Saving Time each conspire to get in the way of our circadian body clocks being aware of natural time. Jackie and Yale strongly believe it is time for men and, even more so for women, to fight back against living our lives as if we are machines, not human beings. And they are not just hoping for a better times revolution. For example, as a woman's circadian rhythm affects her menstrual cycle -- AND her menstrual cycle also affects her circadian rhythm, their totally unique TrueTyme mobile clock app uses patented "sun both above and below the horizon" symbols (and "moon above and below" ones too) that tell a user's mind and brain where she, or he, is in two kinds of natural time. TrueTyme also now has color-coded MoodTyme with unique features for mood journaling, tracking, and analysis by sun time, moon time and time of month.

By using its natural time displays and its analysis of moods by sun and moon time and time of the month, Android users, and soon, iPhone (and hopefully iPad users too) can use TrueTyme to better connect to both nature and themselves. Jackie Landsberg says, “At the least, TrueTyme is a unique 'GPS system for minds and bodies' that is curiously comforting.” Her husband, Yale, hopes that one day, TrueTyme's 'whole picture of time' will also be added to many treatments for alll sorts of circadian rhythm-related problems, “especially those which affect baby-boomers and the elderly. Because as we age, we tend to less and less see dawn and dusk blue light adequately twice a day, due to the yellowing of the lenses of our eyes.”

“However, let's not forget all the younger people too!” Jackie adds. After which, she summarizes their mission this way: "All of us who most of each day are in-doors at home, work, school and play, rarely get to see each new day's sun rising and setting; let alone the passage of the moon each day and night.” Which is why the Landsbergs are hoping that young and older iPhone and iPad users, alike will be part of their unique Launcht.org crowd-funding project, and will tell all their friends and family, including their Android-using ones.
