Questionnaires: How to guide

Accurx Questionnaires let you send Questionnaires to patients to collect data through their responses. The responses are then fed back to you via the Accurx Desktop toolbar.

You can then save these responses directly to the record - Some Questionnaires can be set to automatically save to the record with the relevant SNOMED codes! 😊

Examples of some of the Questionnaires that are available are:

The example we have used for the purpose of this particular step-by-step guide is the Asthma Questionnaire. However, the other Questionnaires work like this too.

📹 If you prefer videos of how Questionnaires work, we've got a playlist here.

Step 1:
Make sure you have both (1) EMIS/SystmOne/Vision and (2) the Accurx Desktop toolbar open, and select a patient (or a test patient if you want to give it a try for yourself).

Step 2:
Open up the compose message screen by clicking the message icon on the Accurx toolbar.

Step 3:

Click in the search bar to search for a Questionnaire, as shown in the picture below 👇 You can also search for the Questionnaire you are after by typing its name.
​

​
​Step 4:
Click the Questionnaire you'd like to send to the patient, e.g. "Asthma ACT Questionnaire", and the text message will pre-fill (but feel free to edit it to make it more personalised!)

Step 5:

Click the "Send" button, and the message will be on its way to the patient!
​

Patients will receive reminder texts if they have not completed the Questionnaire within 7 days.

Please note: the above reminders are worded for the Asthma Questionnaire. Similar reminders are sent for the other Questionnaires, except the Remote Monitoring Questionnaire (more details on that here).

Questionnaire reminders are not saved to the patient record.

Step 1:
When a new response comes back from a patient, you will see a notification on the inbox icon of your Accurx Desktop toolbar if you have notifications enabled for that particular team inbox.

Step 2:
Once you open the inbox, you should navigate to the "Questionnaires" section and click on the Questionnaire inbox you want to view responses for (e.g. "Asthma") as shown below 👇

Step 3:
When you click on "Asthma", you will see all patients who have responded to the Asthma Questionnaire in the central pane. When you click a card, you can see their response in the right-hand pane (new responses will have a red notification next to their name).

Step 4:
Under the patient's response, is a "Save to Record" button - click on this to save the responses to the record.

​For some Questionnaires, SNOMED codes will be automatically saved to the record!
