Manage patient records in Halaxy with more than just basic note-taking features. Halaxy’s clinical features empower healthcare providers with tools to create and import fully customisable templates, enabling practitioners to document and monitor every aspect of a patient’s health journey.
The most impressive aspect? Each feature is tailored to the specific needs of your profession, ensuring that Halaxy supports your practice with precision, streamlining both administrative tasks and enhancing patient care.
In this guide, join Unified Computing to explore Halaxy’s features for efficient patient record management.
Creating Custom Clinical Note and Tool Templates
Halaxy provides an intuitive platform for creating clinical notes and tool templates that are customizable to specific needs. This allows healthcare professionals to include elements like body charts, prescriptions, lab requests, forms, and recognized assessments that meet industry standards. These templates enable consistent and accurate management of patient records, essential for effective care.
For example:
- Body charts: Useful for documenting patient symptoms visually, marking pain points, injuries, or areas requiring treatment.
- Lab requests and prescriptions: Keep all patient treatment data in one place, streamlining workflows.
- Clinical assessments: These can be saved as templates and scored, allowing professionals to evaluate patients systematically.
By having the ability to create these templates directly within Halaxy, providers can ensure that each note is customised to their practice’s unique requirements, enhancing both efficiency and the quality of patient care.
Importing Preset Clinical Templates from Halaxy’s Global Database
Beyond custom templates, Halaxy provides a global database of preset templates to streamline patient record management. These templates, created by other professionals, are available for easy import, saving time and ensuring adherence to industry standards. This is particularly beneficial for practices with diverse patient bases, as it allows providers to access templates suited to various specialisations.
Using preset templates also ensures consistency in managing patient records across a healthcare team. When all practitioners use standardized templates, patients receive a uniform experience, regardless of who they see.
Tracking Patient Health with the Clinical Dashboard
The Clinical Dashboard in Halaxy acts as a central hub for tracking patient progress. By collecting data from notes, templates, and assessments, it allows healthcare professionals to monitor health changes over time, crucial for effective patient record management.
Key benefits include:
- Visual summaries of health trends: Practitioners can quickly spot improvements or declines in patient health.
- Easy-to-read progress tracking: The dashboard aggregates data for each patient, presenting it in a streamlined format.
- Patient-focused insights: Monitoring trends can help practitioners make informed decisions about treatment adjustments or additional tests.
For example, a patient with hypertension might use a clinical tool template to regularly log blood pressure readings. These readings are then tracked within the dashboard, allowing practitioners to observe any shifts in health and adjust the care plan as needed.
Patient Health-Tracking Device Integration
Many patients today use health-tracking devices such as blood pressure monitors, glucose meters, and fitness trackers. Halaxy’s integration with these devices allows patients to upload data directly into their patient records, making it easy for both patients and practitioners to view key health metrics during appointments.
For example, a patient tracking daily steps, sleep, and caloric intake can share this data with their provider, offering valuable insights for managing patient records comprehensively—especially important for conditions requiring lifestyle adjustments like diabetes.
Customisable Intake Forms
Halaxy provides a robust tool for creating customised intake forms, which can be sent to patients prior to, during, or after appointments. These forms allow practitioners to collect essential patient information, such as:
- Personal details: Name, address, insurance information, and medical history.
- Health-related questions: Include questionnaires and assessments relevant to the patient’s condition.
- Payment information and social history: Streamline billing and capture details that may affect patient care.
The intake forms help to ensure that practitioners have a comprehensive view of the patient’s health and background, facilitating better-informed treatment decisions. For instance, a therapist could include questions on family history of mental illness, substance abuse, or past trauma to gather important context for patient care.
Secure Record Sharing through Messaging
Finally, Halaxy makes it easy to share patient records securely with other healthcare providers. The secure messaging feature allows providers to send case notes, pathology results, and other sensitive information to a patient’s care team, ensuring that all team members stay informed. This is especially useful in multidisciplinary care settings where patients may see multiple specialists.
The secure sharing feature also allows providers to respect patient privacy while maintaining efficient communication with other professionals. For instance, a primary care physician could securely share a patient’s medical history and recent lab results with a specialist, ensuring continuity of care and reducing the likelihood of duplicated tests or treatments.
