Record-Keeping in a State Hospital: A Modification of the Weed System
Abstract
The Weed problem-oriented medical record has been modified for use in a state psychiatric hospital that has a large proportion of long-term patients and uses an interdisciplinary team approach to treatment. Three new record forms were developed during a pilot study at the hospital: the processed-problem list, the problem card, and the unprocessed-problem list. The modified problem-oriented record system is being used on 28 wards providing both short- and long-term psychiatric care.
