Oct 2017 Vic Med bed change over
This article discusses the change to collection practices to accommodate the changes to the medicine wards at the Vic in October 2017.
New units collected
The following units will be newly collected:
- VIC_N5C - C for complex care patients
- VIC_S5C - C for complex care patients
- VIC_N4 - no C added, as this is TCA (Transition Care Unit) and not complex care patient. We don't have N4 in CFE.
Units that will discontinue
- VIC S4 - we will no longer collect location
- VIC_S3 - we will no longer collect location
- VIC_N5 - location will be collected VIC_N5C
- VIC_S5 - location will be collected VIC_S5C
- VIC EMIP - no more med, so no more EMIP; needs cleaning VIC_Medicine_Collection_Guide#EMIP_patients_at_the_Vic when it actually happens.
- VIC MICU
Patients already admitted will be followed until discharged from unit. For locations where we continue, use new Service/Location when new patients are admitted after #transition time.
Implementation
New units have been added to laptops, don't use until #transition time.
Primary Collection locations
- VIC_N5C,p:Pam Piche
- VIC_S5C, p:Shirley Kiesman
- VIC_N4, p:Shirley Kiesman and p:Pam Piche
- we need to know:
- which locations should be available as Service/Location
- both Shirley and Pam's laptop will have all 3 service location available.
- what order should they be in? Any preference?
- this will need to be set up in s_locations_allowed_collection, probably by Tina after she is back 2017-10-09
Units no longer collected
After #transition time, #Units that will discontinue will no longer be collected.
These need to be inactivated in s_dispo table and cleaned out of s_locations_allowed_collection.
Transition time
- medicine beds: Morning Oct 3, 2017.
- Vic ICU beds: Oct 10, 2017
Template:Discussion Pam or Shirley, if any changes, please let us know.
Collection change plan for admission continuing over transition date
Any patient that is still on collection unit will be followed until discharged from that unit as change will not happen in a day.
For the first new admission to N5C or S5C after #transition time, Serial number will start at 150.
