***I have struggled with this as well, but usually my same day patients are coming directly from the OR, or Recovery Room, so I just enter this in my previous location field, and put n/a for my pre-admit inpatient institution. If they came from a same day surgical area, then I would probably enter "ambulatory care" for my previous location.[[User:Mlagadi|Mlagadi]] 09:20, 2016 August 3

***I am trying to complete a profile that was sent to MICU from S3 at the VIC, and it won’t let me check off “complete” for my registration section. The problem seems to be that the system wants me to enter medicine as a sending service, but in reality this patient is on S3 under family medicine. My only other option would be to check off the more generic “Vic ward” instead of “VIC S3”. This patient is not on the S3 data base, because we don’t admit any of the patients on S3 that are under family medicine.

****In this case, even though the patient is physically in S3, she should enter the generic '''VIC Ward''' as '''previous location'''.  We would like to be specific in the ward  for previous location and dispo fields when it is the Med ward we are collecting or when these  wards are of interest to the users (e.g. step down wards, long term vent wards).  Put '''Family Medicine''' as '''previous service'''.  Putting VIC S3 as previous location will only create a question  ‘why there is no record of this patient in VIC S3 ?”  [[Julie Mojica]] 2016-Sept-19
