Scales / Échelles cliniques

For documentation in chart, each item can be rated either in the written note or with dictation, or total score would be possible. However, having detailed scales is helpful to target specific areas to improve further or see why specifically the patient condition is worsening.

Pour la documentation, je note/dicte le score de chaque item avec des commentaires lorsque pertinent. De plus, l’utilisation d’échelles permet de pouvoir cibler des éléments précis dans le suivi.

Les versions en français seront graduellement ajoutées sur le site Web… à venir!
