*Hi:Patient 1781 from H4H was discharged to SOGH emergency and was parked there waiting for a bed. The program doesn't allow you to send if the discharge is to ER so I put ward(SOGH). We are very tight for beds and I expect this to happen again. Gail Hall
 
**Before medicine service sends a patient from a med ward here, to a med ward in another hospital, there must be some discussion between physicians in both centers and, the physician on the receiving end of the transfer, must have “accepted” the pt.

I don’t think Medicine service wards just pack people up and dump them in other centers ER’s and hope for the best on the other end?  It is likely the physician at the Oaks who accepted the pt, wanted them sent to the ER first so her/she could assess. Technically this patient is still a continuous hospital admission in the Region.
