Chronic Health Facility

General Information for Chronic Health Facilities and entries for them in

• Pre acute living situation field
• Pre-admit Inpatient Institution
• Previous Location field
• Dispo field
• Awaiting/delayed transfer to long-term care/PCH inside or outside of Winnipeg

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, 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 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.

This portion needs to be integrated

Pre acute living situation field

Use the "chronic health" entry for patients coming from any part of

• any hospice, though these should obviously be rare
• Selkirk Mental Health Centre

• If a patient's discharge to a Chronic Health Facility is delayed, you might be able to code Awaiting/delayed transfer to long-term care/PCH inside or outside of Winnipeg.

from Dispo field

• use <site>_ward e.g. Riverview stroke rehab, Oaks ward
• If the patient is discharged to the PCH portion of Deer Lodge or Riverview use Winnipeg PCH

from Awaiting/delayed transfer to long-term care/PCH inside or outside of Winnipeg

Use your judgement and available information to decide what to code for the Awaiting/delayed transfer to long-term care/PCH inside or outside of Winnipeg diagnosis .

• Includes Riverview LTV unit

Excludes

• Those that have Pre acute living situation of PCH and are being discharged back to their original PCH. If there is a delay in transfer this will be captured by the Transfer Ready DtTm

These should be made consistent with Template:PCH Riverview Deer Lodge and should probably use that template to enforce consistent use. Ttenbergen 14:23, 2024 October 16 (CDT) and I have lost track of the details Ttenbergen 10:45, 2024 November 1 (CDT) There might be an easy way out of this question. We now only have one awaiting code; if waiting for any of them qualifies for this code then we may not need to know about the level of care. But then again, some of those sites also have acute/LAU type settings so we may need to figure this out after all...Ttenbergen 20:27, 2024 December 11 (CST) that template does not exist or I can't find it Lisa Kaita 14:56, 25 June 2025 (CDT)

Discussed this at JALT Meeting - Rolling Agenda and Minutes 2025#JALT 2025-03-11 but I don't remember if we came to an answer or next step. Just found a note to add that we will also need to decide if any of these are in-patient locations. This would make them collectable as Pre-admit Inpatient Institution, and is relevant as per Pre-admit Inpatient Institution field#Data Use / Purpose. are you referring to PCH's because they are not inpt locations or are you referring to chronic health facilities?

in s_dispo, Riverview has inpatient checked, Deer lodge does not. When all this is settled they should probably become consistent... but not sure which so not now. that was how this discussion all started because we are treating these two differently when really they probably should be the same Lisa Kaita 14:52, 25 June 2025 (CDT)
