Advantages of using SoftPsych Software in your daily Clinical Practice
Save time and Increase Accuracy of Diagnosis
- You or a non professional can do a quick triage in 10 minutes. This is accomplished by using screens for Adults, Children and Parents to quickly get to possible diagnoses.
- You won’t miss co-morbid disorders
- After the screen, you can confirm a diagnosis in 5 minutes or less. You don’t have to remember Diagnostic criteria (DSM IV criteria). Once a Diagnosis is confirmed, place a print out of Criteria that led to the Diagnosis in the Chart. This will justify diagnosis for Quality Care (Internal review) and Insurance companies (External review).
- Using Checklists and scores allow you to use the same criteria that were used by Researchers to establish the effectiveness of Medications and other interventions. Medication approval is based on Objective criteria and you will be using the same to monitor and assess the progress of your patients. SoftPsych has simplified that process with no requirement of paperwork and time used to do the calculations. We use Depression score, Anxiety score, OCD Score, ADHD score, Social anxiety score, PTSD score and Positive Score to assess a patient’s progress. Now you can get the score in 5-10 minutes and you do not even have to administer the questionnaires. This can be done by non professionals. Some checklists require a rating by Psychiatrist/ Therapist. Usually these are no more than 1 or 2 questions that you would be assessing any way as part of your assessment. You now have access to the tools of researchers at a fraction of the cost in time and expense.
- You now have an Accurate confirmed diagnosis with a Numerical score of the patient’s illness with little or no effort on your part. You can spend your time with the patient exploring various treatment options or refining your questions and concerns.
Stay Current with Research and Guidelines
- We are all busy and have little time to read all the research and guidelines constantly being issued. SoftPsych does this review for you and provides you a current data on Medications and interventions regarding as most effective.
Instant Access to useful information
- Information about protocols, treatment and medications is available to you in seconds and as easy as the access to your computer or Handheld device (PDA- Palm or PocketPC).
Data Analysis increases your Effectiveness
- Computers today allow us to do an analysis of effectiveness of our interventions instantly. We can tell which one of our interventions, medications is most effective with which Diagnoses or group of interventions. You now have the tools of a researcher available at your finger tips. Just imagine where would professional sports be today if they could not see Videos of their and their opponents’ games! (Currently in Beta)
