Setting up Rehab My Patient in PPS
Signature Capture
This one’s been a real hot topic! Following the enforcement of GDPR back in May of this year, we’ve had lots of questions about capturing patient consent for treatments, data storage, data processing and various other purposes!
Although we have had the option to capture signatures available for a while now, we have been working on making the functionality more universally accessible.
The latest update to PPS now gives you the ability to capture your patient’s signature using any touchscreen device, a graphics tablet or any other device that uses a mouse input, like a pen or signature pad that can connect to your PC or Mac!
This new feature is really easy to use and is perfect for capturing patient consent. To start using signature capture, simply set up a custom form and make sure that you include the question type ‘Client Signature’. When you then come to use this form, you’ll be able to ask your client to sign!
Any forms that contain a signature will be automatically signed off once you save the form and we’ve also put other technical measures in place to prevent editing or tampering and like all other actions in PPS, it’s all recorded in the database audit.
If you’re not familiar with custom forms already, check out our guide on how to set up your own forms.
This guide will talk you through the different question types and here’s how to add signature capture!
Spell check
We know that is one has been highly anticipated so we’re really excited to announce that PPS now has spell check! Hoorah!
Long gone are the days of scrutinising your notes, custom forms, emails and more! Spell check now exists in all of the larger text input screens in PPS!
Spell check will highlight any words that it deems to be incorrect by underlining the errors with a red squiggly line that we’re all probably a little too familiar with. You’ll then be able to right-click the highlighted word and choose the correct spelling from a list of suggestions, easy peasy!
The dictionary that comes with the spell check facility holds more than 100,000 English words, however, there may be some that you use in practice that are not found in there.
We know that there’s nothing more annoying than a page filled with squiggly red lines. So, if a word that you use in day to day practice is highlighted, we’d like you to compile a list of these words and send them to us. We’ll be adding the most common words to the dictionary for you and all other PPS users to benefit from.
Sending your list of words is nice and easy, simply use the form below to submit your suggestions and we’ll do the rest!
Phew! Now that we’ve blurted all of that out, you might also want to check out some of the other new features, improvements and bug fixes…
‘There’s more??’ we hear you cry! Yep that’s right, we told you this was a jam-packed release and we couldn’t have done it without your help!
As always we take a lot of our direction from the feedback that we get from you! Our lovely PPS users!
We read every bit of feedback that we receive and we’re very grateful that you take the time to submit your ideas. Although we can’t always implement all of your suggestions or sometimes it might take us a while to get round to doing them (we have a long list of great ideas that are already in development), rest assured that we are always working on improving PPS, so please keep sending your feedback and ideas.
If you’re unsure how to get your feedback to us, here’s a handy guide on just how easy it is!
