Aaron Mountain, WSRCC President, contacted me today... He has 15 years experience as an AFH Care Provider. We spoke of online medical records, which he has used in his Care Homes.

Aaron said he verified that state law requires that licensors be allowed access to resident records in EITHER electronic OR hard copy form. That means that when we use online systems, we are not required to print on demand. |
