Is it an electronic medication chart?

No. It's a medication log: your team records each dose given, when, and whether it was taken, refused or taken late, with a photo if they like. There's no prescribed medication chart that schedules doses or chases a missed one, so keep your pharmacy's chart for that.

Will it warn me about a bad reading?

Not automatically. Readings are recorded with their time, and blood pressure with the category the worker picks, but nothing flags a reading or charts a trend. Incident and ABC reports are the ones that alert the office the moment they're submitted.

Does it report incidents to the NDIS Commission?

No. Orangised records whether an incident is notifiable and who needs to be told, and keeps the investigation with the report, but lodging a reportable incident still happens in the Commission's own portal.

What if there's no reception?

The app needs a connection to send. The clock-off form, care note and all, can be saved as a draft on the phone and sent once you're back in range.

Can families see the notes?

Only what you let them. Tick a care note to share it with a guardian, or let a guardian see every note. Private notes and health logs stay with your team. Families can also lodge an incident or ABC report from their own app.

Can a note be changed after the fact?

Admins can correct a care note once the shift's completed. Incident and ABC reports stay open for the office to follow up, and once one is published the dashboard locks it.

How much does it cost?

You pay per user, per month, on one of two plans. Care notes come with both; health logs, incident and ABC reports and the auditor login are on Professional. The prices are on the pricing page, or ask us for a quote that fits your business. See pricing

If It's Not Written Down, It Didn't Happen.

So Orangised makes sure it gets written. Care notes, meds, incidents and health logs, done in the app on the shift, not three days later. Every one lands on the participant with who wrote it and when.

The Short Version

No note, no clock-off.

The app won't close a shift without a care note of 150 characters or more and a signature. Talk it in with voice-to-text if typing's a pain.

Eleven forms, right there on the shift.

Incident and ABC reports, medication and eight more health logs, filed from the shift against the participant.

Who, when and which shift.

Every entry from a shift carries the worker, the date and the shift it came from. Print the care notes or any health log for a date range when the auditor asks.

What's Actually in It

1. Care Notes Before They Clock Off

The care note gets written while the shift's still fresh, because the app won't let your worker clock off without one. It lands on the participant's record with the date, the shift and who wrote it, and the next worker can read it before they start.

150 characters minimum, with voice-to-text for anyone who would rather talk it in
Group and house shifts: one note for everyone, plus a note for each participant
Private notes that only the office ever sees
Signature, shift photos, receipts and travel kilometres on the same clock-off form
Save the clock-off as a draft on the phone and finish it later
Past care notes on the shift in the app, so the next worker knows what happened last time
Admins can fix a care note once the shift's completed

2. Nine Health Logs, Written on the Shift

Meds, food and fluids, sleep and hygiene, bowels, diabetes, blood pressure, falls, seizures and weight. Your team logs them from the shift in the app, and each one files itself on the participant, against the shift, with who did it.

Medication by the dose: what and how much, the time, and Taken, Refused or Taken Late, with a photo if you want one
The participant's medication notes on hand in the app while they log it
Readings with their times: blood pressure with its category, up to eight diabetes readings a day with a photo of the meter
Bowel movements on the stool chart, from severe constipation to severe diarrhoea
Falls with where it happened and any first aid, seizures with the time, how long they lasted and what happened
Weigh-ins in kilograms with a photo of the scale, and the latest weight right on the list
Every log on the participant's Reports tab, and on the shift it came from

3. Incidents and ABC Reports That Get Followed Up

Something goes wrong, it's reported from the shift while it's fresh, the office hears about it straight away, and the report stays open until someone's investigated it and published it.

Incident reports with the type (Level 1, Level 2, near miss or hazard), severity, witnesses and anyone else involved
A front and back body map, photos, and whether first aid or emergency services were needed
ABC reports for behaviour: what came before, what happened and what came after, with tick boxes for aggression and property damage
Admins get an email and an alert in the app the moment one comes in
The office records how it was handled, what changes, whether it's notifiable and who to tell, and the investigation, then publishes it
Families can lodge an incident or ABC report from their own app too
Print it, or download it as a spreadsheet

4. Ready When the Auditor Asks

Everything's dated, has a name on it and sits on the participant it's about, so there's nothing to chase when the audit comes around.

Who and when, every time
Every note, log and report carries who wrote it and the date, plus the shift when it was written on one.
Print a date range
A participant's care notes or any health log, printed to PDF for the dates you pick.
A login for the auditor
Auditors read the notes, logs and reports with their own read-only login.

The Honest Answers

What it does, what it doesn't, and no fine print.

On the phone. Care notes, health logs and incident and ABC reports are written in the Orangised app on the shift, and the office sees them on the web straight away. Admins can add or fix entries on the web too.
