"No Transfer Date" in Medicine
and also enter the following in:
- TMP:
- PROJECT:: No Transfer Date
- Started date Feb 29.14 - for all patient still on laptop that REQUIRE (see required for Med above) a transfer date but collector could not guess from chart notes please enter TMP, Project: No Transfer Date.
- A collector can always give a guess of transfer ready based upon the information in the chart or rounds time, etc. I think we should enter in the tmp if there is no written indication from the doctors when the pt was transfer ready. This way if we want to track this, it could be done. We would then put a transfer ready time,based upon best guess, but a tmp entry would also be made showing that there was no written order or indication from the physician. This way we would know which of these times are just based upon a best guess scenario. --LKolesar 09:09, 2014 March 18 (CDT)
NOTE: This will not affect your ability to send.
Purpose:
- Provide a way for collector to verify that they did not miss entering in this field (left it blank) for those patients that REQUIRE a transfer ready date.
- Report back to Director about the number of transfer ready date/times that could not be derived from a patient chart by the data collector. At this time, we are not interested in tallying the number of transfer dates not recorded on chart by the physicians.
- I just had a look at the validation for transfer date in CCMDB and collectors won't be able to leave this blank is "' if the patient has survived and not left AMA and discharge to is Ward, ICU, home or unknown"; for them to follow this instruction I would need to get rid of this restriction. Should I? Ttenbergen 14:53, 2014 March 2 (CST)
- not sure what you mean, this restriction makes sense to me. Not understanding why you would remove?Trish Ostryzniuk 18:54, 2014 May 6 (CDT)
- I see that main office is not allowing any ICU profiles without a transfer ready date. Main office follows up with phone calls and emails for a transfer ready date. Tina, ICU collectors should not be allowed to SEND without a transfer ready date. ICU is not using TMP Project No transfer date. Only 3 in TMPV2 to date but transfer date is in registry because main office accepts no blanks. This TMP project will not be applicable to ICU. No one is able to monitor if staff are even remembering to mark it in TMP.--Trish Ostryzniuk 18:40, 2014 May 6 (CDT)
