Good way and racional form.

Continues the form.

Pros

Understanding, useful, practical. I feel good using this product, I have learned with it. There is good interaction with the system, which is important.

Cons

Until now nothing to say. I personally feel good using this product, I have nothing negative to point out until now.

employee side of the program is lackin

we need communication notes for employees. we need the reports section redone and more options

Pros

the care plan for home health aide is easy to do on you complete the templates. Communication notes are easy to do on clients.

Cons

There are no communication notes on employees. these are really needed. Tracking conversations with our employees, and making communication notes on paper, then scanning them into the system does not work well. Building reports on you system does not work well and I don't feel I can trust the information to be correct. can't do a visit prior to expiration date because the system will not use the new care period until the day after it begins. We try to do visit within 5 days prior to the expiration.

It works but makes things more complicated

Coming from a previous software, change is always difficult. However after over a year of using Axxess I have not seen it to be any better than previous software I have used.

Pros

In my opinion this has too many "bells and whistles" that act more as a hinderance than a benefit. In order to reschedule a shift you have to fill in about 3 different screens which is just redundant. Many upgrades they have made since implementation do not seem to have much benefit.

Cons

There are too many steps required to complete a simple reassignment.

THE PROGRAM AXXESS ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO MY WORK ONLINE WITHOUT HAVING TO GO THE OFFICE.

Pros

IT OFFERS ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE ACCESS TO ALL THE DOCUMENTS NECESSARY TO ACHIEVE MY WORK AND IT GIVES ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONTACT ANY STAFF IN CENTRAL OFFICE AREA.

Cons

AT THE BEGINNING OF STARTING TO USE THE PRODUCT IT WAS A BIT COMPLEX. IT WOULD HELP ME A LOT TO HAVE A TRANSLATION AREA ON THE AXXESS PAGE.

makes charting easy

Overall, an easy-to-work-with program.

Pros

I like the body system reminders so that I don't forget to chart on something.

Cons

I wish there was places to mark down all of the vital signs more than once per shift rather than one space plus the ability to add one extra Heart Rate. In an 8 hour shift, we are required to document vitals at least Q4H, and for those of us who work longer than 8 hour shifts, we do 3 sets of vitals.
