This data causes a patient record to show up in Cognos/CUS as having arrived on a unit even when the pt has not actually arrived, and it isn't visible in our listings whether the record is for a swing or real bed.
Transfers between different units can be found in the same Location History window as Arrive Date & Time and Visit Admit Date & Time.

For those collectors who are doing vacation relief for the regular collectors who are away, catch up from time off can be expedited for the returning collector if the following things are prioritized.
 
#do Overstay Predictor Project (OPP) and color generation. ADL's are a component of the OPP and can be found on the [[STB Electronic Patient Record]]. They are in "initial assessment" form under the documents tab. Everything needed for minimal data will be included if the opp is done.
#medicine apache score. The SBGH ER unit is online with their vital signs and neuro assessment. This means that the vital signs and gcs required for the apache score can now be found under the flow sheets tab. To access neuro check, click on flow sheets, then care and assessment, then neuro. The only exception to this is for patients admitted to the unit from MICU. MICU does not use epr (electronic patient record) for vital signs, and hence apache for these patients still need to be obtained from the paper flow sheet in the chart.  
 
The only things that need to be taken from the paper chart are the dpst info. If the OPP is kept current and up to date then charts would not have to be pulled from medical records by the person returning from vacation. This would help tremendously in catching up from time off for the returning collector.[[User:DPageNewton|DPageNewton]] 14:40, 2013 February 20 (EST)
