   • Note that any scenario medication added in this step will not added as a prescribed medication. The scenario medications are just added to the list of medications for the theoretical scenario.
   • Also note that excluding prescribed medications from the MeSA Scenario will not remove or delete them from the patient/resident's record.
5. Complete step four. Click the step "5" tab to process the MeSA Scenario. Remember that it can take up to 20 seconds to process a MeSA Scenario.
   • Add a new scenario observation if needed.
     1. Type the new observation into the text field, and click the "Add" button to add it to the list.
     
     • Note that the newly added observation is listed as a manual entry, not from the patient/resident record.

6. Once the report is complete, step five shows the results of the report.

Understanding the MeSA Scenario

• The blue box indicates whether the report was generated from live patient data or if the report is a theoretical scenario.
• The red boxes indicate the fall risk and number of observed behaviors.

• The table shows the correlation between the patient/resident's medications and observed behaviors.
  • If any theoretical inputs were added in steps three and four, they will appear in blue on the table.
  • Hover over an icon to understand what it means, or click on the "Legend" link in the bottom right corner.
  • When medications don't match with any observed behaviors, they are listed at the bottom of the table.
  
  • Click on "Expand All Meds" to get simple details about the awareness factors per medication.
    • Click on "More Detail" to get expanded information about the awareness factors.
    
• Remember that the Legend can be accessed by clicking on the "Legend" link.
