Clinical Registers¶
Clinical registers structure the monitoring of risks and geriatric assessments. Each register groups together the assessments of a single theme, over time, for each resident.

How it works¶
Open the register you want from the Care application → Registers.
New assessment for the resident concerned: enter the items; Resthome calculates the score and the risk level.
The register tracks the progression: each new assessment is added to the history.
An open register can be closed / stopped, then reopened if needed.
Linked to billing and eHealth
Some assessments have an impact elsewhere: the MNA feeds the nutritional monitoring (on the Meals side), and the Katz determines the flat rate (see The Katz assessment).
The right register at the right time
Open a register as soon as a risk is identified (after a fall, when a wound appears…): the history built up makes handovers and inspections easier.
