GRA Medicine Collection Guide

This is a resource guide which documents collection processes for GRA MED site and serve as a reference for anyone who will pick up shifts at this site.

• Medicine Admission Date & Time is found on the pink Admission Summary sheet at the beginning of the chart and is recorded by Patient Registration on notification by Emergency that the patient has been accepted for admission by the Medicien physician on call
• Medicine Overflow patients are admitted into off-service beds throughout the hospital and are difficult to track.
• Patient Reg prints a daily record of Medicine attendings for N3, W3 & N5 which documents which pts are admitted under each physician and where those pts. are located.
  • this list is printed daily, including weekends and is left for us to pick up 24/7 at the switchboard office across from registration; the first data collector in each morning is responsible for picking up the lists and distributing to the other collectors; we have decided the best place to leave the lists is in the ward admission/discharge binder on each ward
