Order Entry
The Order Entry module is a fast, efficient method for caregivers to order procedures, consultations and other activities from any service, department or agency in the healthcare enterprise. It immediately communicates orders and requests to the designated entity. Order Entry allows any caregiver to access the status of an order or consultation from the time the request is made until it is completed. All routine documentation associated with the order, together with any special notes, automatically becomes part of the patient’s electronic record and is associated with a specific registration. When implemented in conjunction with the Resource Scheduling module, orders and requests can be scheduled with a few keystrokes. The scheduler identifies all of the human resources needed to fill the order, together with any equipment or special room(s) needed. Scheduling conflicts are immediately identified. The workload measurements associated with completing the order are automatically calculated and credited to the caregiver.
Features:
- Place, track, and communicate orders throughout the enterprise from one screen.
- View the patient’s complete order history for previous encounters and registrations.
- From the Order Entry screen, schedule completion of the order (using Resource Scheduling) including all required human resources, equipment and space.
Benefits:
- Save time and improve standards of care by using default order sets.
- Maintain security of patient information and system functions via passwords and the assignment of rights.
- Schedule orders and requests with a few keystrokes.
- Identify scheduling conflicts across equipment, human resources and rooms in real time.

Our nurses have bought into it. Regardless of how good a system is, if the nurses don't buy in, it won't work. They see the Momentum system significantly enhancing our quality of care. -Ray Koop, CEO
