The EMR system is comprised of two types of pages: Menus and Forms. Throughout this manual, we will refer to pages where patient information is accessed as a “Menu” and pages where patient information is entered as a “Form”.
Menus within the system include the AT Dashboard, which provides access to all registered patients, and the Injury Menu, which provides access to all injuries documented for a specific patient.
Forms within the system include the patient registration form, injury demographic form, evaluation form, daily treatment form, discharge summary form, and the various patient-oriented outcome forms (SF-12, PEDS-QL, FAAM, etc.). Forms are completed by either the clinician or the patient, and once locked and submitted cannot be edited. You can view all completed forms from the Injury Menu.
Now let us look at the individual Menus and Forms within the EMR system.
