* What are people entering for patients coming from a Nursing Station? Are you putting "other (known, but not on list)"?

*I have never admitted directly from a nursing station. They always seem to go to ER before being admitted to ICU or Ward locations. So previous service is Emergency. If they come directly from a nursing station then I think the closest would likely still be Emergency. --[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 03:16, 2017 April 12 (CDT) | |||
**We have a down list of nursing stations specific in MB and if it is outside MB, we indicate the generic province -nursing station (e.g. British Columbia - Nursing station, Alberta - Nursing station, etc.) Do you know the name of the nursing station or is it outside MB?

*** I don't think there are any nursing stations in previous '''service'''. Did the patient come directly from a nursing station? If they dropped by ER, it would be normal Emergency Medicine. If not, it would be "other (known but not on list)" or "not applicable". How would you have coded the pt if they came from home instead - could it be that the nursing station as previous location is just a red herring when deciding previous service in this case?
