Direct admit
Redirect page
Redirect to:
Direct admissions are in-patients who are accepted from another site (within region or from out-of-town) and come directly to the next site.
Usually, these patients should go straight to the accepting ward at the second site. However they occasionally move through the ER and are sometimes delayed there. In that case, they need to be collected as Parked in ER.
Legacy
Collection for this was changed as part of the 2016 Time and Place changes.
This used to be relevant to ER Wait and ICU Var 4 - Parked in ER
