      • Non attributable options are available in the work list and depend on setup by the Client.. They may be generic e.g. Non Attributable Management, Non Attributable Non Management  or specific e.g meetings, admin, phone calls, group meetings, training, etc.
      • Attributable interventions are Interventions that are attributable to a Patient 
      • Work Lists are populated by the Appointment system (either supplied by LogiPro Systems, developed specifically by LogiPro or an existing Appointment System - if existing, then dependent upon ability to data feed)  and/or by manually selecting a patient by Customer requested fields e.g. UR Numbers, Patient Name etc.
      • Customer requested fields are fed to CASPAH by the existing Patient Information System of the facility

    Disciplines

    Disciplines are entered by the Client to suit you own environment.

  •  

    •  

    Users

    Users are also set up by the Client to suit your work environment.

    There are 3 levels of user:

        • Super User
        • Administrator
        • User

    A user may be a member of one or more disciplines.

    Also, for example, a User may be an administrator of one discipline, but a simple user or super user of another.

     

     

     

    Hierarchies

    Hierarchies are set up in the Hierarchy Editor.

    The entries are user definable, with some being shared hierarchies and others specific to each individual disciplines.

    There is the ability to set default standards which will automatically populate the intervention for a patient.

     

    There is also the ability to enter 5 customised hierarchies per discipline to be whatever that discipline requires.

    Note above, the various hierarchies available, showing the Time of Day hierarchy.

     

    Another example, is the Locations hierarchy

    Locations of interventions and referrers as per our example below

     

     

     

    CASPAH Worklists

    The Practitioner worklist  is shown below.

    Note the Group Interventions and Non attributable Intervention areas are shown in blue.

    The Clinic Appointments are shown in red below those (non are showing in this worklist) and then the normal In patients who are to receive interventions are shown normally below that, along with their UR number.

     

    You are able to ADD Patients to the list by clicking ADD. The Patient demographic information that you facility has requested will be available for searching.

    To view Interventions already performed for a Patient, simply select the Patient from the Worklist and view as below.

                                                                     Note: P=Physiotherapy  SP=Speech Pathology etc. then the name and allocation   of the User (e.g.Emergency Physiotherapist)  is automatically entered next to the Intervention.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    CASPAH Interventions

     

    Patient Type     Time of Day      Time range

      (Time Range e.g. 15-30 minutes, or Timer or entry of minutes manually – see diagram below)

     

      The boxes with ( .... )   show a list of choices, click on them and make a  selection

     

       Stop Watch Timer

     

     

     

     

     

     

      or Manually enter full minutes

     

     

    INDICATOR

    As mentioned earlier, these are Hierarchy Fields and will be selected by levels, as are all the Hierarchy entries set up by the Client.

     As an example:

    They could be entered as:

    MS System, Nervous System as Group 1

     

    Group level 2 could be Amputation, Joint Surgery, Brain Injury. Remember these are sub choices under Group 1.

     

    Group 3 could be Joint Replacement, Tendon Repair, Brain Injury Traumatic, Brain Injury Non Traumatic.

     

    Group 4 could be a sub level of Group 3 or Tests. Anything really that you wish to record

     

    Thus arriving at the 5th level, which is the actual Indicator/code. Hence Indicators can be tracked through specific levels to represent that particular path.

     

    Thus you work through the Intervention information entering information for:

        • Location of Intervention
        • Referrer
        • Location of Referrer

    e.g.

     

     

  • The actual Intervention e.g. Assessment

    • This allows you to Select either Attributable or Non Attributable Interventions, working through the hierarchy until you can select the correct entry. E.g. see below for Clinical Care, Individual Patient Attributable, Assessment.

     

    The number of Patients who are present for a particular Intervention.

    E.g. Physiotherapy may have an exercise class where more than one patient attends and you wish to record the attendance numbers.

     

    Other information may be collected – see      

     

    Outcomes

    Outcomes may be recorded

     

     

    Available Dimensions and Measures

    The reports are compiled using both Dimensions and Measures.

    The field list shows all Dimensions and Measures available for reporting purposes.

     

     

    Reports are easy to use with a drag and drop functionality.

    Simple drag the fields you wish to report on into a specific area. E.g. Disciplines, then drag another field across e.g. Interventions and a report similar to that above is shown.

     

    Multiple views, multiple fields, exemption from reports (e.g. do not include Physiotherapy or a specific location) or include all. The choice is yours.

     

     

    Chart reports are also easily created with a drag and drop functionality.
