Icare Advice. Hi all, Im wanting to have a quick chat with anyone who uses Icare and Activity charting for daily documentation. We received advice from an Accreditation consultant to link up the Activities charting to a progress note. The only issue now, its that the progress notes are being clogged up with the activities charting and clinical staff are unable to see if a resident have had a formal progress note done on them on the last 7 days due to having to scroll thru all of the activities charting posts. Is there any way, you can do one bulk activities chart with the numerous activities they did during the day so it generates one progress note per day?

Hi Lowana, I just saw your message & I use Icare at work. You have a good point as you cannot enter a couple of activities in 1 entry. They all have to be separate. In saying that, we have to enter the time of the activity therefore make several entries.
I've been asked to draw up a seating chart for our residents to ensure our more cognitive residents get a chance to sit next to someone who can have a conversation.
does anyone have a basic template I could possibly use?
I’m loving your website, it’s been a great help to me over the last six months since I started my new role. Lots of hints and tips, great activities, and it’s great that we can contribute too. It’s fantastic to have such a universal source of information, how we have a common goal and language despite our worldwide locations. Thank you!
I have never used Icare and thus far I am saying no one in the group who has
