We used to track the track the time accepted medicine patients spent in the ER before physically arriving on the ward/unit in the tmp file. See [[ER Delay]] for how this is tracked now.  


== Purposes of collecting "ER Wait" data: ==
Review article history for legacy info, deleted to avoid confusion.  
To assess the "time delay" from when a patient is first accepted to Medicine Service while in the site's own ER (emergency room) to when the patient actually arrives in a medicine ward bed of the same hospital. (This is done in conjunction with [[Admit, Transfer and Discharge date and time | admit time]]).


==Start and stop date==
== Legacy Info ==
*Start Date: June 4, 2011
*Start Date: June 4, 2011  
*Stop Date: none
**NOTE: September 1, 2007 ER Wait was included with Moves Tmp Project Data for Medicine
*Change Date: July 1, 2016
**old TMP Project ER wait data from June 4, 2011 to Jun 30, 2016 for Medicine profiles, was migrated into the ''Accept DtTm field''


==Collection Guideline==
For every patient admitted from the ER, enter date and time arrived to medicine ward bed
*Any patient admitted from the ER must have one ERWait date/time entered into tmp file.  It does not matter if first bed moved to into an in-service or off-service bed.


* project: '''ER_Wait'''
[[Category: Legacy Data]]
* as appropriate one of the following items
}}
** '''direct admit''' - direct admit patient parked in ER on the way. A direct admission means direct admission to medicine ward bed but for some reason parked in ER before going to a ward bed. 
** '''ER admission''' - all patients accepted to medicine service physician service FROM a '''ER physician service''' (does not include those patient that were direct to medicine service.)
* the date & time arrived in med ward bed from the unit log or nurses note.
 
Data is only sent when all of patient file is complete.

*** Just to clarify,  DIRECT ADMIT= any patient who comes to your hospital emergency via ambulance ,car,or foot from home.ER ADMIT= any patient who comes to your emergency from ambulatory care services, other emergency wards, other hospital wards and angio. Is this correct? Thanks Shirley
****No. A Direct admission is a patient who is admitted DIRECTLY to a Medicine ward bed from the community or another center or from anywhere else.  Admitted directly to a medicine service physician service and not to an emergency service physician.
****ER admission are those patient that are admitted to medicine physician service FROM a ER physician service.--[[User:TOstryzniuk|TOstryzniuk]] 16:06, 6 June 2011 (CDT)
