Mountainside Electronic Medical Records

Mountainside’s EMR uses an innovative approach in helping medical offices create and manage a true paperless medical record. It is a full-featured system that documents all aspects of a patient’s medical care.

Patient Charts

Each patient’s “chart” provides pertinent current information, along with complete access to all of their documentation including:

  • Patient notes.
  • Diagnostic tests and procedures.
  • Active Prescriptions and Medication History.
  • Problems
  • Immunization and other preventive care procedures.
  • Flow Sheets.
  • Allergies and other Alerts.
  • Pending to-do-list entries with history.
  • Images and much more, all easily customized to the needs of each office.

 

Doctor’s Desktop

Providers have their own “desktop” that helps them keep track of their workload.  In place of a stack of charts on their office desk, they have electronic lists of unfinished chart notes along with:

  • Patients in office: Waiting Room and Exam Rooms.
  • Open documents, pending orders and more.
  • Messaging, to-do lists.
  • List of labs with results to review.
  • Meaningful Use Status Report.

Nurse Station

The Nurse Station gives staff a personal view of patients in the office along with many productivity features.  Each staff has private mailboxes for inter-office messages along with access to selected shared mailboxes for various inter-office communication needs. From the Nurse Station, staff may:

  • Move patients between waiting and exam rooms.
  • Open the chart of any patient in either the waiting or exam rooms.
  • Manage their messaging, to-do lists and other functions.
  • Manage inbound faxes and failed outbound faxes.
