*As in the first wave will we exclude those patients that are not under any of our medicine services?  Ie. neurology and respiratory patients but we do include nephrology patients.
** I will pass this question on to Julie, since reporting needs should drive the answer to this. Ttenbergen 21:22, 2020 October 15 (CDT) 
**what was done in the past? are we collecting nephro under Medicine service?  I thought we are only collecting patients under Medicine service in the designated Covid wards?  This is what I have said to GRA when the same question was asked to me.  Trish can you confirm?  --[[User:JMojica|JMojica]] 11:18, 2020 October 26 (CDT) }}

*Effective October 23, 2020 STB Medicine Unit E6 is opened as second covid positive unit- Red zone.  - Pam
*My understanding is that the boarding location STB-COVID unit will capture covid positive unit changes within a facility. Since there are now two covid positive units at STB, I  suggest entering the specific unit in the Q column. Unless main office needs something different. - Pam 
** This is a bit tricky. should we collect all COVID admitted at E6 or just those under Medicine service? I think collect only those under Medicine Service. enter in the boarding Loc STB Covid unit and in the comment E6 to differentiate it with A6GY.  Meantime B4NO boarding  will have the overflows of non covid B service.  does this make sense?  --[[User:JMojica|JMojica]] 11:18, 2020 October 26 (CDT) }}

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.
