Question:
=== Grace Hospice - separate facility ===
*I have a patient discharge to Grace Hospice from Victoria ward so I code ZH  as my discharge to location but the laptop won't let me put GH in var2 due to it states "must be local" so shouldnt GH JH BH be added to the location discharge to site ? so you can capture which hospice the pt goes to unless you are not collecting that specific type of detailed  information.( we have always used GW when discharged to Grace Hospice)
'''Grace Hospice''' is in a separate building from Grace hospital, and is '''not a ward'''. We collect this location as '''''Grace Hospice'''''.
**at GGH we have been using discharge to "Grace ward" with variable "GH" when the pt goes to Grace Hospice. Are we also changing to d/c to "Hospice Care Centre" with variable "GH"? to clarify, do we still use discharge to Grace ward with the GH variable or are we also using discharge to Hospice Care with the GH variable?  The Hospice is considered a ward here.--[[Stephanie Cortilet]]
 
**Hi Tina. GH, JH and BH was suppose to be allowed in Var 1 & 2 for all sites in the Regional.
=== STB Palliative Care - ward ===
*** Correct, the program will not allow discharge to ZH and then Var 2 GH/BH/JH because only local wards are allowed to be in Var2. Because of a quirk it might have allowed Grace to send to GH only. I added the options in January but never tested entering it and then trying to set a patient to complete. I may need to change all the check code. I am surprised,though, that I had not heard about this before. Do we discharge to hospice that rarely?
'''STB Palliative Care''' is located in the STB_A8 '''ward''' of STB hospital. We track this as a "ward" in [[s_dispo table]] [[S dispo.loc type]] because, while it provides some services a hospice would, it is actually a proper ward.

Hospices are palliative/end-of-life care facilities, relevant to the program as admit/discharge locations

If a patient is admitted from (ie Previous Location) or discharged to (ie Dispo) a hospice, code as the appropriate entry from the s_dispo table. If the palliative care location is a ward it is treated as a continuous admission and can also be used as a Pre-admit Inpatient Institution field.

palliation in or near hospital

Grace Hospice - separate facility

Grace Hospice is in a separate building from Grace hospital, and is not a ward. We collect this location as Grace Hospice.

STB Palliative Care - ward

STB Palliative Care is located in the STB_A8 ward of STB hospital. We track this as a "ward" in s_dispo table S dispo.loc type because, while it provides some services a hospice would, it is actually a proper ward.

HSC_D5/HSC_WRS3 - ward

HSC_D5 ward provides palliative care when a hospice can't be accessed. It is not necessarily a palliative care location, though. We track this as a "ward" in s_dispo table because, while it provides some services a hospice would, it is actually a proper ward.

  • During the first wave HSC_D5 moved to HSC_WRS3 and remains there for now Jan 15,2022
