The actual arrival time to a medicine ward is recorded as the first "move" in the TMP file on the PDA or in ACCESS. [[1]]
Purposes of collecting "Move" data:
- To assess the "time delay" from when a patient is first accepted to Medicine Service in the ER (emergency room) to when the patient actually arrives in a medicine ward bed. (This is done in conjunction with admit time).
- To assess how much time an in-service medicine patient spends on off service wards while still under a medicine service physician's care.

Reporting and Analysis
As per email from Julie from 11 sept 09: Haven’t done any analysis on this, just the data checking which had stopped for sometime. Will re-visit.
Data Structure
We capture medicine ward patient movements (moves) in L_TmpV2. The data is sent to and stored in TmpV2_1.mdb.
