OVER
OVER stands is used as a patient location in the Critical Care and Medicine database.
OVER is used as location for patients at the Victoria Hospital who are admitted from ER to a non-VMU bed (off service ward) for their whole stay. This patient has to be admitted to VMU before we track them. We use different serial numbers for this.
Discussion
- Could someone from the Vic clarify the definition above please? Specifically, if they are admitted to a non-VMU bed for the whole stay then how are they ever admitted to VMU for us to track them? Is it a question of admitting to a bed as opposed to admitting to a ward? Once that's clarified, please delete the discussion.Ttenbergen 11:16, 1 March 2010 (CST)
