This page explains how we will collect data on patients located in COVID units or other temporary units starting 2020-Oct-15.

Instructions

How do we decide which patients to include

Include all patients meeting the Definition of a Medicine Laptop Admission.

Which laptops will they be collected on?

They will be collected on the laptops assigned as per PatientFollow Project.

How will they be entered on the laptops

See Boarding Loc

What to enter for Pre-admit Inpatient Institution Previous Location / Dispo for patients from/to Covid units

  • Just enter the generic <site>_<program> (e.g. HSC_Med)

Background

Physical locations of COVID isolation, cohorting and expansion keep changing. Every change we make to Service/Location causes extra disruption to collection, documentation, training, vacation coverage hand-over and data processing steps so we needed a flexible method that doesn't require decisions and changes every time locations are opened, closed or moved.

We will start to treat COVID and other contingency locations like any other Boarding Loc.
