Medication Logging


EDPlan Health provides nurses with the ability to see a list of scheduled medications and nursing procedures for the current day in chronological order, including the scheduled time, dosage, and a color-coordinated visual indicator of the documentation status. Nurses can also document the administration directly through this feature. Information displayed is restricted to the schools and/or students the nurses have access to.

Health Information Page


Every student’s record in EDPlan Health includes a page displaying comprehensive student health information capable of storing health alerts, nursing services, medication services, and immunizations. Previously delivered nursing and medication services are saved to the student’s record and are accessible to other nurses should the student change schools.

 

Individual Healthcare Plans


IHPs that list nursing diagnoses, goals, interventions, and outcomes can be created within EDPlan Health through a few clicks utilizing templates. Nurses can create both draft and final IHPs. Information regarding any student’s medications will automatically pull in from the Health Information Page.
