Question:
*I have a patient discharge to Grace Hospice from  Victoria ward  so I code ZH  as my discharge to location but the laptop won't let me put GH in var2 due to it states "must be local" so shouldn't 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)
**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"? to clarify, do we still use discharge to Grace ward with the GH variable or are we also using discharge to Hospice Care with the GH variable?  The Hospice is considered a ward here.--[[Stephanie Cortilet]]
*still hoping for an answer to this
**Since we are doing duel entry for May 2016 both in the REG tab and in Disp tab in CCMDB, in the registry, continue to do as you are doing.  In the new dispo tab, the Dispo field you would select Discharge TO would be Grace Hospice. [[User:TOstryzniuk|Trish Ostryzniuk]] 17:49, 2016 May 2 (CDT)


***Hi Tina. GH, JH and BH was suppose to be allowed in Var 1 & 2 for all sites in the Regional. 
'''Includes'''
**** Correct, the program will not allow discharge to ZH and then Var 2 GH/BH/JH because only local wards are allowed to be in Var2. Because of a quirk it might have allowed Grace to send to GH only. I added the options in January but never tested entering it and then trying to set a patient to complete. I may need to change all the check code. I am surprised,though, that I had not heard about this before. Do we discharge to hospice that rarely?

Hospices are palliative/end-of-life care facilities, relevant to the program as admit/discharge locations

If a patient is admitted from (ie Previous Location) or discharged to (ie Dispo) a hospice, code as the appropriate entry from the s_dispo table, and use "Chronic Health Facility" as Pre acute living situation.

If the palliative care location is a ward the record is treated as a continuous admission

Includes

  • Jocelyn House
  • 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.
