* Question moved here from [[Level of care hierarchy]]: Transfers from ER to a medicine unit usually depend upon bed availability on a medicine unit and not whether the patient is "transfer ready" The tmp entry will almost always (there are exceptions) be "not available" with check box per wiki instructions. Should the comment be "not ready" for patients transferring from the ER location?
* ER is considered "higher acuity/level" than medicine units so for patients who are '''never''' transfer ready moving from ER to medicine units is the tmp entry comment "not available"? And for moves to higher level care units and lateral medicine moves for patients who are '''never''' transfer ready is the tmp entry comment "not transfer ready"? These questions are not about where patients move but rather what comment should be entered in tmp for patients who are '''never''' transfer ready in the above scenarios.
** Transfer ready dttm is '''not about where the pt DID move'''. It tells whether the team would '''want''' them at a lower level of care. So a med pt in ER could be ready to go home but needs a care home spot so can't leave hospital. That would mean they were transfer ready in ER even though they then went to a med ward. I will flag this for Task because it keeps coming up so either I misunderstand this or we need to find a way to make it clear to everyone else.
