This is correct Trish we do not collect data on neuro patients on the non-teaching units unless they have been accepted by a medicine service. The same rule would apply for another service that might get into the non-teaching unit but had not been accepted to medicine. This is not true on the wards as we collect data on everyone regardless of there teaching status, or service. Neuro and other services use beds on the ward all the time and they are included. You had asked Dr Roberts for direction on this matter of whether he wan't data on neuro patients on the non-teaching side and my understanding is the question has not been addressed.````
