== What is Data Collection log form ==

The '''Data collection log form''' also know as '''PDA collection log form''', is a '''paper form''' that the data collectors use to manually record serial number, FN, LN, Admit from, Admit Date/time, discharge date/time, transfer Ready date/time, green sheet/tiss completed. The medicinepaper form is slightly different in that it includes columns for up to 2 move date/times.

This form is basically a "worksheet" that the collector uses to organize patient ~~information~~ from ward log books before they enter into a electronic collection tool, ~~current~~ a laptop. After collector enters information into laptop, some of the information is display on laptop in [[Patient List]].

This form is basically a "worksheet" that the collector uses to organize patient admit/discharge lists from ward log books before they enter into a electronic collection tool, currently a laptop. After collector enters information into laptop, some of the information is display on laptop in [[Patient List]].

These forms "live" for a time being, in a [[data collector's binder]].

*Currently there is inconsistent practice with the data collection log forms. Sites fax a copy of form to [[Data Processor]] when all patient information is complete on the form. Some staff use various color markers and when forms are faxed, information in row is not visible. Some staff send the orginal forms in once all discharged for the month are completed and they do not store any copies or original in their office, others staff keep original in office. If [[Data Processor]] calls with questions related to a variety of errors, collectors can look up patient. The [[Data Processor]] files this information in binders by year, site/unit in main office.
