To print a selected assessment:

3.1.4 Disease codes are no longer cleared in I2 after updating the diagnoses from the overview

This error has now been corrected.

3.1.5 Automatic discontinuation of care plans in Home Care and LTCF no longer hides objectives

This error has now been corrected and care plans no longer need to be discontinued prior to the new care plan being made active or the client being made inactive.


UNCLASSIFIED

3.1.6 Change to entering notes for overview items

How notes are entered and how the notes history appears has been changed. They now function in the same way as the Progress/Continuation Notes. This applies to all notes sections that are accessed from the overview eg. Advance Directives, Worker Safety Concerns etc.

The appearance of these notes on the Overview Page remains the same, and they still function in the same way ie: those items where a new note replaced a previous note still do, and items that added to the previous information also continue to do this.


UNCLASSIFIED

3.1.7 User Reports now limited to 90 days

Time frames for user reports (ie Audit Report by User, Audit Report by Client) are now limited to 90 days. An error message will appear if the time period selected exceeds 90 days.

Please note: The new outcome score will appear in the outcomes list in Momentum for assessments prior to the upgrade, however the result will be blank, and when opened to view triggers the following message will be displayed.

3.2.2 Change to entering the ‘Presenting Situation’ in the community care plan

The ‘Presenting Situation’ is now formatted in the same way as continuation notes.



UNCLASSIFIED

For copied care plans a list will appear with the previous notes entered, for a new care plan the list will be blank.

Important: Only the most recent note will appear as the ‘Presenting Situation’ on the care plan so ensure that all information required is included. Please see the information in Known Issues below regarding addendums to active care plans.

4. Known Issues to be Corrected in the Future

4.1 Addendums not able to be added to active community care plans

Users will need to copy the current care plan, go the presenting situation, copy the last note and add the required text and then save and return. Then make the new care plan active.
