A Psychiatric POMR for Use by a Multidisciplinary Team
Abstract
A psychiatric problem-oriented medical record designed for use by multidisciplinary teams was introduced at Fairfield Hills Hospital in Newtown, Connecticut, in 1972. The need for revision in the hospital's medical record system had been pointed up by the development of the teams, which shared more equally in responsibility for patient care, and by problems in meeting Medicare standards. The authors describe the various forms that make up the POMR. Most of the forms are completed by the teams in regularly scheduled conferences.
