Guideline for beds held while pt offsite
- For patients sent to other hospitals for tests, surgery or treatments and the bed is held in the sending unit or ward, continue the same profile as long as the time away is <= 23 hours.
- If the pt is away > 23 hours, regardless if the bed is held, the pt should be discharged and a new profile started when the pt returns.
- The exception would be if the patient goes to a ward or unit that is part of our data collection and the collector includes the patient for any length of time, because the pt was clearly admitted under a service there. In this case, the pt must be discharged from the original location and later re-admitted when sent back with a new profile. (per Dr. Garland & the task group discussion). --LKolesar 13:23, 19 November 2011 (CST)
