Assessments and Rating Scale

Assessments and Rating Scale

Overview

Within ICANotes+, you have the capability to perform assessments and automatically generate ratings based on these assessments. These ratings can be integrated into various notes, including Progress Notes, Case Management records, Complete Evaluations, and SOAP Notes. There are two methods available for conducting assessments:

 

  • Recording assessments directly within ICANotes+.
  • Sending forms or assessments to clients via the Client Portal, allowing them to fill them out remotely.

 

Recording assessments directly within ICANotes+ 

To initiate an assessment within ICANotes+, follow these steps:

 

Navigate to the client's chart > access the Chart Face tab and click the Forms / Assessments button, as depicted below:


 

 

From the Category dropdown menu, select Clinical Rated Assessments.

 


 

Within the Form dropdown, select the specific assessment to administer to the client. For example, select PHQ-A from the list.

 


 

Once both Category and Form are designated, click the Create button.
