Hi-Tech Provides Falls Management and Prevention Tools
The Hi-Tech Clinical Records System for Long Term Care provides several tools that can assist your facility with falls management and prevention.

Our EMR Documentation provides access to the information you need to assess a resident's risk for falls and completely document a falls episode.
  • Clinical Assessments: Use our Risks for Falls template and follow changes in resident's level of risk.
  • Event Tracking: Document falls and alert staff to monitor the resident. View Falls details when you complete MDS J1800.
  • Care Plans: Create a plan of care for a resident who has a risk for falls or has been injured by a fall.
  • Falls Prevention Flow Sheet: Implement and document care plan interventions for falls.
  • Pain Management: Design MARs and Flow Sheets to manage pain that might cause falling.
The Hi-Tech Human Resources application allows you to track staff education in Falls Prevention.
