Dispo field

This field is currently being implemented, please check the instructions and put a discussion for anything that isn't clear. 

The Dispo field contains information about what happens to the patient at the end of their admission.

Collection Instruction

For each patient,

• enter the location that most closely matches

Alternatively,

• for patients who expire, one of
  • "Died - Organ Donor"
  • "Died - NOT Organ Donor"
• for patients who leave against medical advice, enter "Left AMA"

If you know the location exactly, you can type it. Otherwise press the "magic wand" button to take you to the S dispo chooser‎ to help filter options if desired.

• Please consider for drop-down fields some organized A to Z or site compression then alphabetized...the lists are just a jumble and too laborious scrolling
• Who is responsible for filling in the dispo fields? If patient has been transferred around the site/s do we need to address all or just immediate prior?
• Can we get rid of "seconds" in the time /date drop fiedls and make more friendly to enter
• Some of drop down site locations aren't being accepted into field as error code pops up and declares too much text--Llemoine 12:45, 2016 March 23 (CDT)
