Chart Faster with Templates and Dynamic Fields Designed for Lactation Consultants
MilkNotes SBAR charting combines a smart Dynamic Dictionary, customizable templates, and automatic saving so you spend less time documenting and more time with families.
The Problem
Charting is one of the biggest time drains in a lactation consultant's day. Generic EHR systems weren't designed for IBCLC documentation — they're cluttered with irrelevant fields while missing the ones you actually need. You end up typing the same phrases over and over, working around rigid templates, and spending evenings catching up on notes instead of resting. Worse, many systems don't follow a structured communication format, making it harder for referring providers to quickly understand your findings.
The MilkNotes Solution
MilkNotes was built by an IBCLC with over 30 years of clinical experience, so every charting field exists for a reason. The SBAR format (Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation) structures your notes in a way that providers immediately understand. The Dynamic Dictionary learns your most-used terms and auto-suggests them as you type, dramatically reducing documentation time. Templates are fully customizable — add the fields you need, hide the ones you don't — and everything saves automatically so nothing is ever lost.
Key Benefits
Dynamic Dictionary
MilkNotes remembers the terms you use most. Start typing and your frequently used phrases, diagnoses, and observations appear instantly — saving keystrokes on every chart.
Customizable Templates
Build charting templates that match the way you practice. Add, remove, or rearrange fields so your chart captures exactly what you need — nothing more, nothing less.
Automatic Saving
Never lose your work. MilkNotes saves charting data automatically as you type, so an unexpected interruption won't mean starting your notes over.
SBAR Format
Structured Situation-Background-Assessment-Recommendation format keeps your notes organized and communication-ready for referring providers.
Works on Any Device
Chart on your laptop at the office, your tablet at bedside, or your phone on a home visit. MilkNotes adapts to whatever device you have on hand.
Customizable Fields
You decide how simple or detailed your charts are. Toggle optional fields on or off, create custom dropdowns, and tailor every section to your clinical style.
