Site and Location table
This table shows Hospitals/Sites and locations where we collect data and their codes for entry into the Location field. In some circumstances you will need to use the hospital and location on their own, and in some they will be combined. If they are combined, they should be written as <hospital>_<location> (eg HSC_A4).
items in blue are links to details recorded below

Details for Grace W3 / E3 / S3
The data for Grace W3 actually includes the east(E) and west(W) wings of the third floor. Apparently at some point, the Grace refers to W3 & E3 as ward S3. Since we had been collecting data for a year or two before this came up, we decided not to change our location label.
Details for StB ICU
- MICU/SICU were combined to MICU Jan.15, 2007
- Cardiac Care Unit CICU was established Jan 15, 2007

The Vic is tracking overflows too, aren't they? Ttenbergen 15:12, 27 November 2008 (CST) Is overflow tracking documented anywhere on this wiki? It should be, and the reference in the table should link to it. Ttenbergen 15:12, 27 November 2008 (CST)
- At the Vic we track overflow patients. If a patient goes
from ER to a non-VMU bed(off service ward) for their whole stay, they get followed as an OVER patient.This patient has to be admitted to VMU before we track them. We use different serial numbers for this. If a patient is admitted to VMU and spends their whole hospital admission in ER they are followed as an EMIP, and they too have the different serial numbers(same series as the OVER patients). However, a VMU patient may first go to an off service ward from ER and then get moved to a VMU ward, this is tracked by our moves in the tmp. table.Their first move captures the admit time to the off service ward, and their second move captures the time they move to the VMU ward.WGobert 09:14, 28 November 2008 (CST)
