Health management is essential to every student's life. As such, it is critical to maintain an effective system of entering, updating and organizing all information that relates to wellness. With Veracross, it is easy to locate health care organizations, specialists, immunization records and medical visit records, among other things. Users can also track recent and upcoming visits, referrals and visits to be scheduled. Medical screens such as sports physicals and hearing exams, as well as immunization information can also be accessed using Veracross.
Like every aspect of Veracross, it is easy to add information. In this case, the information relates to health management such as a person's medical history, medication, or an individual with a medical specialty, such as a dentist, pediatrician or school nurse. On the student level, the user can identify those who should receive medical notifications. Additional information such as the student's primary care provider can be entered, thus creating a doctor/patient relationship.
"The health management portion of Veracross definitely emphasizes the importance of good health," says Breuer & Co.'s David Bean. "Even though we're all aware of how important it is as it relates to education, maintaining health-related records can be overwhelming, at best. With Veracross, users have access to a complete health management system that is effective and, of course, easy to use."
