“We are already automated.” This is a comment that keeps coming up in my conversations with different schools health centers. When I dig further, what they are really saying is that they are electronic, which means they have a database managing their health information. There are several differences between having an automated system like Magnus Health Student Medical Record and an electronic medical record system. One subtle automation is product updates. Because our system is web based, all you need is an internet portal to gain access to our suite of tools. With Magnus Health there...

Collecting, tracking and managing forms for students might not be quite as daunting of a chore if all students needed the same forms, but this just isn’t the case. Every class, every grade has a student or group of students with special requirements and those requirements need to be collected in such a way that these students are separated from the general population and easily accessed in the event of an incident or emergency. In my conversations with school nurses, I find that one of their biggest concerns and frustrations is ensuring that this vital information is not only collected systematically,...

Health history and emergency contact information - as a school, you need to collect this every year for every student and almost every year the information remains the same. Parents are required to complete paper after paper with information that was provided to the school the previous year. Wouldn’t it be great to have it completed ONE TIME online and have the parent go in and update/verify every year thereafter? That is the beauty and benefit of a web based Vital Health Record (VHR). Parents complete the essential information the first year that their child enters the school. Before...

It would be impossible to be prepared for “any old thing” that happens at our schools. However, the Magnus 911 feature included in our student medical record program will allow you to be prepared in the event of a medical emergency. This cutting edge technology will allow you to quickly and effectively communicate with an injured student’s emergency contacts as well as send that student’s medical records ahead to the treating facility. This chain of communication can be instituted simply by accessing Magnus 911 by computer or smart phone and typing in the student’s 16 digit...

A recurring theme in my conversations with school nurses lately has sounded a lot like this: So just think: the enormous chore of record collection and review that you dread all summer long could disappear with a little “Magnus magic”. Any records, (and we mean ANY records) that you have collected or are in the process of collecting can be sent to us to upload to your account.  Once you receive your immunization records, consent forms, medication authorizations any form you collect from your students can be shipped to us (or send to us digitally- your choice). This means that...

Each year we listen to our customers describe different issues they face in the day to day management of medical records. A year ago universities who were already using our system to manage all of their health and medical information asked us if we could also review the information on their behalf. To fulfill that void, we developed Record Review. A school is now able to turn on Magnus Health SMR as well as Record Review and all the burden and liability of collecting and managing medical records disappears for the school. Something that we thought would gain slow traction was adopted by over...
