Purposes of Collecting move data

ER Delays

To assess the time delay from when a patient is first accepted to Medicine Service in ER (emergency room) to when the patient actually arrives in a medicine ward bed.

Off-ward care

To assess how much time an in-service medicine patient spends on off service wards while still under a medicine service physician's care. (we will assess this in one year and see if there is any useful information there).

Legacy Data

  • Collection was started September 1, 2007
  • Collection of Moves data made tagging of “overflows” in variable slots 3 & 5 at the VIC redundant (Nov 1.07 stopped).

We capture medicine ward patient movements (moves) in L_TmpV2.
