Processes around changing a PatientFollow assignment: Difference between revisions

Line 20: Line 20:
A change in service will trigger a re-assignment, but a patient could remain on the same service for a long time after a PatientFollow change. If the change was just done for workload re-distribution reasons this may not matter and collection can continue on the original laptop. If the re-assingment was done to wind down a laptop entirely the the remaining records should be discussed with main office on a regular basis to decide if collection should continue on that laptop, or if the record should be moved to the new laptop (ie. manually re-entered there, and deleted from old laptop). This will be a case-by-case decision.

CCMDB.accdb runs [[Check function preAdmit_NE_Location]] (and others) to make sure that the [[Service/Location]] is not the same as the [[Pre-admit Inpatient Institution]], [[Previous Location]] or [[Dispo]]. This cross check will wrongly trigger for patients who are currently transitioning from one laptop to another because of a change in PatientFollow assignment.
