We have been using meditech at our facility for about 7 or 8 years as well. We have tried several different methods for downtime forms and are currenlty in the process of redesigning these now. We at one point did use screen shots of the interventions but went away from this method because we ran into issues with any interventions that had repeatable labels built into them. For instance a skin assessment on a screen shot would only have one occurance to add information, if more than one skin issue is noted multiple sheets would be needed to reflect this. We are now going to a Forms Printing Portal where all of our forms for the facility are loaded, including the downtime forms, and we are going through each intervention and designing from scratch a simplistic document that reflect all of the needed information. This is a long process but one we hope will make things easier in the case when we really have to use it for any extended period of time.
