SchoolDoc Releases Behavioral Health Module
5 min read | Published October 15, 2024
At SchoolDoc, we’re always striving to improve our student electronic health record (EHR) software to better serve schools and the amazing students they support.
We are thrilled to announce the expansion of our Mental, Emotional, and Social Health (MESH) features within the SchoolDoc platform. This enhancement addresses the growing need to support students experiencing behavioral health issues while they’re at school.
Traditional student information systems often fall short when it comes to supporting the behavioral health needs of schools. We recognized this critical gap and have been working diligently to provide a solution that empowers school nurses, social workers, and counselors to better monitor, document, and respond to these challenges.
With the release of our Behavioral Health module, we’re equipping schools with tools to provide holistic care that addresses the mental, emotional, and social needs of their students. By documenting and assessing these critical aspects of mental health within our student EHR system, schools can offer the level of care that families expect and students deserve.
What’s New in SchoolDoc?
Expanded Reports
You can now record mood, affect, and cognitive functioning for your students and staff directly within SchoolDoc. This provides valuable insights into a student’s mental, emotional, and social health, allowing for more informed support and interventions.
Comprehensive Risk Assessments
We’ve added dedicated tools for conducting critical risk assessments, enabling timely identification of potential risks and allowing for prompt intervention and support:
- Suicidal Risk Assessment
- Homicidal Risk Assessment
- Self-Injurious Behavior Risk Assessment
- Abuse/Neglect Risk Assessment
- Bullying Risk Assessment
Enhanced Privacy
We understand the importance of confidentiality when it comes to sensitive information. SchoolDoc employs role-based permissions to ensure that sensitive data is accessible only to authorized personnel who need to know. This safeguards student confidentiality while facilitating effective care.
Why This Matters
By integrating these new behavioral health features into the SchoolDoc student health software, we’re helping schools create safer, more supportive environments where every student can thrive.
Included with SchoolDoc
We’re pleased to offer these new features to all SchoolDoc users at no additional cost. It’s our way of supporting the school community and ensuring that every school has the tools they need to provide the best possible care.
