CBA

• CBA (Central Bed Access)(VIC) taking mostly from Grace ER to decant as they are still under renos.--Llemoine 07:45, 2018 March 28 (CDT)
• CBA = Central Bed Access It is a list from Grace/ HSC/ STB which identifies patients who require a Subacute bed. They call the Winnipeg Regional Health Team CBA = 204-791-8599 which will generate a list where these Subacute patients can be sent to. However Vic is the only hospital to have subacute wards however the plan is to have subacute beds at 7Oaks and Concordia available in the future.

why it is in the HSC CAU page? Are these subacute wards at the VIC ie Transitional Care? Do we need to know more about the CBA designation or process, should it affect our reporting?
