Location of information

Until EPR access/orientation completed, use the Wards' daily admit/transfer/discharge binder for the Ward date/time of event. If no time marked in, refer to the nurses notes in the charts Integrated Progress Notes.

Overstay Project

SBGH has now gone to paperless charting or EPR. This means that we can now review almost the entire chart on the computer. The exceptions to this are:

1. the DPST Form. The information found on this form is one part of the information we need for the overstay predictor project (opp).
2. the medicine apache score. These elements are usually found in the ER nurses notes, or the MICU flowsheet (for those patients transferred to medicine from MICU). Both of these forms are still paper.

Lab results

Hard copies of the Lab results will be on the chart within 24 hours of admission, if not much sooner.
