Complete a NOVASheet Treatment
Each treatment in a NOVASheet displays in the hourly columns at its configured frequency. To record the completion/administration of a treatment:
-
Select the cell for the time slot you want to edit.
-
Enter the value for the treatment.
-
(Optional) Enter comments as needed.
-
Select Save or press Enter on your keyboard.
The system displays the name of the user who recorded the treatment and the date and time of the recording.
Billable treatments only accept numerical values greater than 0 (zero). Decimals are allowed.
Managing Your Caseload by Completing Future Treatments
You can complete billable treatments scheduled within the current hour block or within the next full hour block to stay ahead of treatment schedules during busy shifts.
Example: The current time is 10:30pm. You can complete any billable treatment scheduled up until 11:59pm. At 11:00pm, you will be able to complete any billable treatment scheduled up until 12:59am.
Non-billable treatments, including vitals, can be completed in the future regardless of the current hour block. Learn more about billable vs. non-billable treatments.
Add or Edit a NOVASheet Treatment
Select the Search treatment to add drop-down menu at the top of the NOVASheet to add a new treatment, or select an existing treatment on the NOVASheet to edit it. Learn more about configuring a treatment on a NOVASheet.
The Search treatment to add drop-down menu displays all products active for your location.
A treatment must be linked to a product from your Vetspire Inventory & Services to be billable and display on the client’s invoice.
Each NOVASheet comes with a preconfigured set of Task and Vital treatments that can be added. This helps you track common tasks and vital signs during a patient’s stay, such as Food and Water or Heart Rate. The preconfigured treatments are non-billable by default.
