This issue raised a problem with medicine data recently, and we will review again if this needs to be coded more granular after all,
dicussed at JALT June 25, 2025: while Bojan would like this it is not possible to keep track of unit changes and not always easy to tell which unit they arrive from so leave a Riverview and Deer Lodge (DLC), with the exception of the PCH units in each facility.Lisa Kaita 14:52, 25 June 2025 (CDT)
We have discussed lately that we might want to become more nuanced about some chronic care locations (Deer Lodge (DLC) and Riverview). I have removed the details from the above linked fields and consolidated here. Once this page is cleaned up this discussion entry can be removed.
heard that some beds at STB may have been "given" to Nephro, so we may be collecting them? Made me do a quick query to get rough numbers, sent off to JALT. . Is there anything we want to update in our definition based on this?Ttenbergen 18:55, 8 December 2025 (CST)
Yes, I saw that, come to think of it I don't think we decided, not in my notes, but we can use it and I will change the wiki instructions Lisa Kaita 11:25, 13 March 2025 (CDT)
If we are going to collect this detail for dispo, should we consider whether or not to also look at SH in preadmit living situation?, currently lumped with community facility with support. Lisa Kaita 14:45, 16 April 2025 (CDT)
The entry name includes "TRSF" - is the entry for the previous location equivalent in EPR? Ttenbergen 23:30, 16 April 2025 (CDT)
no because the previous location would usually be <site>_ER Lisa Kaita 09:53, 28 May 2025 (CDT)
Sorry, I should have asked about "pre-hospital location in ADT". Ttenbergen 16:21, 28 May 2025 (CDT)
We have had patients admitted from the chronic care unit at DLC (they live there) the nurses check off PCH for where they reside (on DPST), for Pre acute living situation field we enter Chronic Health Facility and for dispo we enter Deer Lodge, should we be considering this a PCH? as per instructions on DPST they do not continue the DPST form Lisa Kaita 12:35, 24 November 2025 (CST)
Data definition for factor candidates for the Overstay2 project shows we are using PCH and Chronic Care as a group, they contribute equally to the score. The entry for Deer Lodge (DLC) in s_dispo table has s_dispo.loc_type "PCH", so entering Deer Lodge will also group this consistently. I am not sure that answers your question, though... should we consider it PCH for collection or data use purposes? If it is always clear when a patient comes from the Chronic Care part of DLC then maybe we should break this out? Ttenbergen 22:25, 26 November 2025 (CST)
currently aggregated as "PCH" because S dispo.loc type is PCH. That seems wrong. Should it be changed to “unknown/other” or to a new category “Mental Health”? And should we add Eden Mental Health Centre as well? Ttenbergen 16:21, 29 October 2025 (CDT)
Allan spoke with Bojan, to be discussed at next JALT Lisa Kaita 14:48, 16 April 2025 (CDT)
still being discussed at JALT Lisa Kaita 21:45, 9 September 2025 (CDT)
OK, discussion seems to be complete, we will change ICUotherService to Intended1stSrvc. I have cleaned up most peripheral links, but Lisa, could you make sure that this page reflects post-ICUotherService collection instructions? Any info about the change should really only be in 2025-05 Revision of concept around ICUotherService, which I have already linked from the legacy section of this page. We need to make sure that the info to make sense of the continuity of the data lives in that page. Ttenbergen
What will be the turn-over for this? New admissions starting Oct 1? Ttenbergen 14:54, 26 September 2025 (CDT)

If there is linking beyond Populate linking pairs, or if you use a different linkage, we need to document that as well; do you? Ttenbergen 21:51, 11 March 2025 (CDT)
