East Florida Division: Meditech Menu Standardization

Posted by HWS Clinical Ops on Apr 21, 2021 4:51:55 PM

Great changes are coming to the Meditech Nurse and Charge Nurse/Clinical Nurse Coordinator Print Report and Magic Key Menu in NUR and a new EDM Desktop Menu. Nurses and charge nurses will begin to see a different, simplified, look and feel to their menu.

Print Report Menu

The Print Report has been streamlined to make it easier for nurses to find the routines which are utilized most frequently throughout the shift. With the exception of the EBCD Reports, all other reports have been moved to the Magic Key Menu.  

NUR Magic Key Menu

The Magic Key Menu has been standardized across the entire East Florida Division to allow for a more consistent experience across all of our facilities. 

Integrated Desktop (Status Board Buttons)

The Integrated Desktop (Status Board Buttons) has also been standardized and nurses may notice that the sequence of the buttons may be have changed up or down on the list of options.

Variance Menu

A new button has been added to the Status Board options. The Variance button houses facility specific reports utilized for specific process workflows at each individual site.

EDM Desktop Menu

The EDM Desktop Menu has been restructured and unutilized routines removed thereby de-cluttering the desktop menu.
