Service Sending to ICU

NOT ACTIVE YET as of 11-May-2015

Purpose

To identify the "sending service" or "originating service" for those who came to ICU from a prior inpatient location (refer to Task Meeting Minutes Feb 2,2015).

• "I don’t really see the need for a “sending service”. The service of attending can change at any time during a pt stay, why is the “sending” service important?" (Laura)
• "Bojan would like to track ... an addition of FROM (physical location the patient come from) and Bojan would like to know the service the patient come from for inpatients prior to ICU ... " (Julie)
