<quote>...because cognos Is often using the swing bed as a legitimate date and time, we are getting incorrect information. I find that more often than not (not necessarily every single time), the swing bed entry is usually when the patient is still physically located in er, and has not yet, actually physically been moved up to the ward. The er needs to use that location to admit another patient. Therefore, they will put a “swing bed” entry in. because the swing bed entry is listed right after the er entry, cognos picks that up, and uses that as the admit to unit start date and time. This date and time, is, in actual fact wrong. The actual ward unit start time, is the next entry in the location history that does not have the swing bed tag as the location. (Debbie)</quote>

Clarifications:

* The entry is ~~not~~ picked up by Cognos ''"because the swing bed entry is listed right after the er entry"'', it is picked up because it is a unit entry during the timeframe of a service admission.

* The entry is picked up by Cognos ''"because the swing bed entry is listed right after the er entry"'', it is picked up because it is a unit entry during the timeframe of a service admission.

* The swing bed is associated with whichever location it is a swing bed for. So, if the ER uses a ward swing bed, then maybe the real problem is that they should be using an ER swing bed? If they did, the pt would be correctly still listed as an ER pt.
