Scribbles are one of Bells most useful tools!
Scribbles are great for jotting down quick text during your session.
But… that's not all!
Let's dive into the usefulness of Scribbles!
Scribbles are great for many things! You can…
- Take all your handwritten or notes in Word and move them into a HIPAA compliant system
- Associate a Scribble to a patient (or not)
- Prepare for your patient session with reminders, questions and tasks that you need to review during your session
- Take pictures or load existing images into the Scribble
- Use Optical Character Recognition to take the text of an image and add it to your Scribble in Bells
- Work with or without connectivity on Mobile
- Share the Scribble with the patient's care team
Plus… you can use drop-ins, expansions and text formatting.
Here are some ideas of how images can be helpful in Scribbles.
Scribbles Images
Are you observing a patient in the community who is working on a colorful piece of art?
Do you need to document their progress based on that artwork?
With Scribbles on Mobile you can capture a picture during the session. The image taken within the Scribble in Bells does not go to your device's camera roll keeping you HIPAA compliant!
You can also attach existing images from your computer or mobile device into your Scribbles in Bells.
OCR - Optical Character Recognition
There are several scenarios where you may find it useful to get text from an image.
You can…
- Convert handwritten notes into text
- Save time and typos by snapping a picture of a medication label for use in a progress note
- Take a picture of lab results to reference later
