eMedCheck

Overview

eMedCheck is an electronic medication screening form that can be run on a PDA.

There are two different versions of an older version of eMedCheck for Palm PDAs:

Version 2.1 is designed for screening in a CRI scenario in which antibiotics will be distributed to residents. The resident may be a head of household who is receiving medication for a family. Using this software, POD staff record basic information about each family member. The software uses decision rules to determine which medication each person should receive. It also records the results for later analysis. The decision rules used in eMedCheck are identical to those in a medication screening form developed by the National Capital Region. This form is included in the zip file.
Version 3.1 is designed for screening for Hepatitis A vaccination.

Registration: Please send an email to jwh2@umd.edu to tell us that you have downloaded the software. We will update you when revisions are available. We will not send you junk email.
