PROCESS

-Grace MICU does not use the standard Admission/Transfer/Discharge Log. Admissions/Discharges are logged into a Ledger book located to the side of the Ward Clerk's desk. Admit from location, patient name, age (not DOB), admit/transfer/discharge date and time, and MRN are manually entered into the ledger. This ledger is used to keep track of in-house Code Blues, ventilator hours etc.; therefore, when a new page is started all patients in the ICU at that time are carried forward.
