I have spoken with Richard Q the manager on the 5th floor today and this is what he has told me:

* As of right now, they still don't have confirmation on the designated COVID units, but at this time, 5N is being used for COVID SUS and 5S is being used for COVID POS admissions. Currently according to EPR there are 2 positive cases admitted to 5S.

* Over the past week, there has been a lot of movement from 5N to 2S, which in the past was where our boarders were moved to. When I asked Richard, he indicated that 2S has become the "clean" medicine unit. Again, this is all yet to be confirmed by GH and/or WRHA.

* Currently, there is 1 doctor who has taken on the COVID patients, but again, this could be temporary and may change over time depending on what the demand is.

* Unless they are labeled COVID POS in EPR, there is no way for us to know what the swab results return as. This information will only be gathered once the chart is available in Medical Records. If you would like to grant us the ability to go to eChart to review, I'll leave that to the powers that be to decide. My understanding is in this Data Collector role, we are no to review records in eChart.

So the questions I have are:

# For the patients who have been moved from 5N to 2S - I have been tracking these as boarders. Do you want me to continue in this manner?

# For the POS patients who have moved from 5N to 5S - How do we want to track these? There is a dispo location to this unit, but I don't yet see a Service Location for this unit (unless Tina/Julie are still working on this step and it is yet to come).

# I would like some direction on how to proceed - I didn't know that my medicine unit (5N) was transitioned into a COVID floor. I've been entering and tracking the 5N admissions and 2S boarders. I know it's difficult to make decisions when no one really knows what's going on, but before I get too deep in COVID I'd like to have some direction to avoid duplication of work (i.e. having a profile for a 5N admission and a second profile for a 5S admission if we decide to track them).[[User:Surbanski|Surbanski]] 14:42, 2020 April 8 (CDT)
