***hasn't been a problem thus far, in EPR there is a pt provider section that shows what service(s) the pt has been under, as well there is often an indication of service change in the EPR orders section [[User:Lkaita|Lisa Kaita]] 12:22, 2015 July 15 (CDT)

**** Is it always the service where a patient was most recently that is the "sending" one? IE, are there scenarios where a "consultant from other service" of some sort is called to the ward where a patient is, and that consultant sends to ICU. In that case, do we want the ward where the pt was, or the consultant? Ttenbergen 11:46, 2015 July 16 (CDT)

===family medicine?===
Our concern is not about previous ward, but about
the service of the physician to transferred to ICU.
Leaving here for now but no sense discussing further
along this...
* What is the difference between family medicine and medicine?
** we only admit medicine patients which have CTU and VMU doctors looking after them . Family medicine has a list of FM doctors who we do not follow these patients.We at the Vic do not go to 4North which contains all FM patients. The Vic follows patients on S4 (CTU) S3 /S5/N5 (VMU)
*** this is an ICU project, so not about whom we admit, I think this thread is off topic... Ttenbergen 14:54, 2015 June 25 (CDT)
** only relevant at sites that have family medicine. I think that's Oaks and Vic? Could one of those sites clarify? Ttenbergen 10:41, 2015 June 24 (CDT)
***SBGH also has family medicine, HSC has Geriatric medicine, I think its referred to as this, Louise can confirm, are we including Rehab? ie. there are are some inpatients from HSC, Deer Lodge, Riverview that are part of stroke rehab or Geri rehab?

**** I don't understand... are you just explaining that Family Medicine is happening at more places, or do we need to add other options for this tmp collection? Ttenbergen 11:38, 2015 June 25 (CDT)
****I think it would be helpful to put a list of the family medicine wards on the wiki for people who are unfamiliar and are covering.  I know for STB that 6AS is family medicine, not sure if other wards have some family medicine. --[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 11:52, 2015 June 25 (CDT)
****B4 is also family medicine at SBGH, E4 is geriatric rehab medicine, 6AS has both family medicine and internal medicine overflow,  My other point/question is are we lumping all the different types of medicine (geriatric rehab, stroke rehab under "medicine" or should there be other options for sending service?

=== other options required? ===
If other options are required, please comment here.
* Someone suggested we might need "Emergency" but since this is only for patients coming from other inpatient locations we won't include it for now. Can add later if it becomes an issue. (Tina)
** We could go either way.  Might NOT code unless came from an inpatient location, but this isn't perfect because then the people admitted to a service while still in ED wouldn't appear to qualify even tho they DID come from another service.  Alternatively, change that entry, include options of 'ED' and 'unknown'.  This latter option has the advantage of including 'unknown' which should take care of the situation when it's apparently not collectable. We should discuss this I suppose at next task group.  What do you think? (email from Allan Garland)
