STB CICU Collection Guide: Difference between revisions

You can sit at the main desk behind the ward clerk to read charts or at the individual patient desks if the nurse is away. Now that collection is being done retrospectively, most collection will occur on the CSIU, CR4.  There is a small spot at the left hand side of the charting area that is ideal as there is no computer at this spot, so you will not have to compete with unit nurses for space.  This spot is also directly opposite the chart rack for easy access. There is also a second station down the hall to the left from the main desk that is often deserted so is ideal for spreading out for longer stay patients.
