Decision Support in Evaluating the Impacts of Mental Disorders on Work Ability

摘要

Assessing work ability involves considering symptoms of mental disorders relevant to work activity. This paper introduces a systematic process workflow and a Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) for the evaluation of the impacts of mental disorders on work ability. The introduced CDSS is currently in use in the South Karelia District of Social and Health Services (Eksote) in Finland. By using the CDSS, Eksote has standardized the work ability evaluation process and has ensured effective execution of the process within the organization.
