Document Prescriptions

Top Previous Next

The MedLog feature allows users to create special notes to document prescriptions that clients report that they are taking, or that Titanium users prescribe to them. A summary of the medication notes is displayed on the MedLog window for the client.

If your center's administrator chooses to use the Medication Log (MedLog) feature, you will be assigned rights to as a transcriber or a prescriber. The prescription information from medication notes is summarized on the MedLog screen accessed via the MedLog icon on the menu bar of the client screen or client file. From the MedLog screen, you can create new notes, and view notes which were created to document medications.

This feature is set up by your center administrator.

(Note: The MedLog is not eprescribing. Click here for information about eprescribing.)
