Generally speaking patients that have been admitted to any of the active medicine units, E5 (A service), 5B (C service) and E6 (B medicine) are transferred there once they have been deemed medically stable and are waiting for placement or geri rehab, stroke rehab etc.

Medicine would like to track these patients and as such the following situations may arise.

On the very rare occasion patients are admitted directly from the ER or elsewhere to 6AS:

1. If they are admitted under family medicine, we do not admit them, in other words ignore them completely

2. If they are admitted under one of the teaching services, then the collector who collects that data will enter them on their laptop. Ie. If admitted under A Service it will go on the E5 laptop, if B service then it would go on the 6E/5B laptop etc. As for the overstay, the allied health and nursing staff do NOT fill out these forms, so the overstay would be entered as “data missing” and the color would still be generated. If they are a red- there is no binder for allied health staff, so nothing more needs to be done

When a patient is transferred to 6AS from one of the wards and remains under the teaching service, then that patient should be followed until either time of discharge/transfer or until they are transferred to the family medicine service. (As long as they are admitted under one of the teaching services, we should be following them)

When/if a patient is transferred to 6AS from a teaching service ward directly to 6AS but under a new teaching service then the collector responsible for that service will enter them as a new profile. Ie. If a patient is transferred from A service (E5) to 6AS but under C service, a new profile will be created on the 6E/5B laptop, the location should be 5B, and the patient should be considered a transfer from 5E to 5B

When a patient is admitted/transferred from 6AS to one of the teaching wards:

1. If they have remained under one of the teaching services and are transferred back to the same teaching service ward this should be one continuous admission and no new profile is needed

2. If they were under family medicine, then a new profile should be created under whichever teaching service they have been accepted to

3. If they were under a teaching service on 6AS and are transferred to a different teaching service then a new profile should be created by the collector who collects for that service. Ie. If a patient is admitted under C service on 6AS and is transferred to 5E, then a new profile should be created for 5E and the patient should be considered transferred from the 6E/5B laptop
