EMIP stands for Emergency Medicine "IN" patient and is used as a patient location in the Critical Care and Medicine database. It is used to as location for patients who are admitted to VMU at the Victoria General Hospital and spend their whole hospital admission in ER.
Serial numbers used
Patients in EMIP have different serial numbers (same series as the OVER patients).
However, a VMU patient may first go to an off service ward from ER and then get moved to a VMU ward, this is tracked by our Moves data. Their first move captures the admit time to the off service ward, and their second move captures the time they move to the VMU ward.
