'''Includes'''
*** Question I have a patient discharge to Grace Hospice from  Victoria ward  so I code ZH  as my discharge to location but the laptop wont let me put GH in var2 due to it states "must be local" so shouldnt GH JH BH be added to the location discharge to site ? so you can capture which hospice the pt goes to unless you are not collecting that specific type of detailed  information.( we have always used GW when discharged to Grace Hospice)
* Jocelyn House
*at GGH we have been using discharge to "Grace ward" with variable "GH" when the pt goes to Grace Hospice.  Are we also changing to d/c to "Hospice Care Centre" with variable "GH"?
* Brummitt-Feasby ALS House
 
'''Excludes'''
*'''Grace Hospice''' is in a separate building from Grace hospital, and is '''not a ward'''. We collect this location as '''''Grace Hospice'''''.
*'''STB Palliative Care''' is located in the STB_A8 '''ward''' of STB hospital. We track this as a "ward" in [[s_dispo table]] [[S dispo.loc type]] because, while it provides some services a hospice would, it is actually a proper ward.
* Riverview [[Chronic Health Facility]] palliative ward - use''''' Riverview'''''
