Retirement of s_dispo entries
We used to collect the CAUs as separate locations from local wards because they used to be managed by the ER, and so could have contained EMIPs. As of 2021 they are all managed by Family Medicine, and so for our considerations are just another hospital ward where we don't collect, coded as e.g. HSC_Ward.
All *CAU entries for incomplete pts were changed to *ward entries, and the *CAU entries in S dispo table were retired.
On discussion with Julie it was decided to keep the s_dispo entries around and not convert them. The loc type is Ward in s_dispo which is enough when reporting - usually being combined as <site> ward.
