GH-SWAP Location

The EPR/Cognos unit entry GH-SWAP Location is used when a pt is swapped form one bed to another.

These show up in Cognos EPR Report as AsgnBed_Current:

• GH-SWAP Location

See Change of GRA location names from "our" names to EPR/Cognos names for a discussion about how we might collect this one going forward.

• "We don't enter Swap locations, but will enter the move in the TMP if the unit has changed. If someone remains in the same unit but moved rooms, nothing is entered. Surbanski 14:25, 2020 December 10 (CST)

In the 40 days preceeding 2020-12-15 there appear only 2 of these entries and they are about 1 minute each.

Is that a normal frequency for these, and an average duration? Ttenbergen 22:21, 2020 December 15 (CST)

possible change

Omitting a swap entry in the middle of a unit stay is fine and would not affect our interpretation of the data. However, swap entries at unit change time might lead us to entering data that is inconsistent with EPR/Cognos, and that is ambiguous to interpret.
