The one thing which is unclear yet to me is how to make sure we will '''not miss''' any patient in a given ward(Med/ICU) using this strategy. Who will be responsible to check or monitor that '''all''' patients who were admitted in a given ward are already entered in '''all''' laptops? How long will the DC run after that patient who left the ward but still in the hospital? How easy to catch those transfers from other service who haven't been in ICU/Med and now have been admitted to ICU/Med service? For now, these are my thoughts. --[[User:JMojica|JMojica]] 15:32, 2019 August 6 (CDT) | The one thing which is unclear yet to me is how to make sure we will '''not miss''' any patient in a given ward(Med/ICU) using this strategy.

* The process of picking up patients would need to be very clear, and would need to change from what it is currently. We started this discussion with Val. They now get all of their pts off the EPR. That listing includes Chart numbers. So instead of looking at their ward, they can look at their chart number. The only thing is, we can’t sort that by “last two digits of chart number” to make it ''easy''. I hope we can still do better than that. I think it might be good to chat with someone like Laura or Lisa or someone from Med Records about what else we might be able to do with those lists – if we could export them we could filter them to laptops by last two digits. | * The process of picking up patients would need to be very clear, and would need to change from what it is currently.

* Val showed us that she creates an EPR patient list that includes all of her current patients. This list enables the collector to more easily track patients throughout their stay, as you can have patients from multiple different locations on this one list. The only problem with this list is that it is specific to one collector's login, so if other collectors are cross covering (for vacation or other reasons), they would not have access to this master list. Michelle investigated whether it is possible to share patient lists between collectors and the EPR specialist informed her that it is ''not possible''. | * Val showed us that she creates an EPR patient list that includes all of her current patients.
