title: Information systems in the rehabilitation setting: the multidisciplinary approach.
abstract: Very few inpatient rehabilitation facilities have implemented computerized patient information systems. HEALTHSOUTH Harmarville Rehabilitation Hospital has been able to successfully take advantage of its size and standing in the rehabilitation community to develop applications that provide clinicians with up-to-date patient information in a usable and easy to access format at a very reasonable cost. These systems, designed by multidisciplinary teams of clinicians, data users, and programmers, include a Nutrition and Diet Record, a Computerized Education Record, Case Management Tracking and Documentation, On-line Functional Outcomes Documentation and Patient Activity Calendar/Charge Entry applications.
