This field is currently being implemented, please check the instructions and put a discussion for anything that isn't clear. 

The Previous Location field contains the previous physical location of a patient before arriving at the collection location. .

Collection Instruction

If the "Previous" location field contains a "temporary" location like an ER, OR or Cath Lab you will need to enter the "Previous Inpatient Location" field. This will be a dropdown that allows an appropriate subset of the contents of s_dispo.

For each patient,

  • enter the option that most closely matches
  • if you know the situation but nothing on the list matches closely, enter 'other - known but not listed
  • if the situation is unknown, enter location missing/unknown

If you know the location exactly, you can type it. Otherwise press the "magic wand" button to take you to the S dispo chooser‎ to help filter options if desired.
