Admissions

Admissions

The "Admissions" functionality from the "Hospital" menu is used to handle the patient's admission disposals (accepting the patient directed to the department from the emergency room) and the disposals of patient transfers (accepting the patient transferred from another ward). After selecting this functionality, search engine is displayed to admit / transfer patients issued today. In the search engine, all wards where the logged-in staff works are available for selection. First select the ward and press the "Search" button. The list of disposals for admitting / transferring patients to a given ward issued today is displayed below the search engine (in order for the disposal to appear on the list of disposals, the visit at the emergency room must be finished). The search engine also has the following navigation buttons:

  • <<< - allows to view admission / transfer orders issued to a given ward on a month earlier than the current presented day
  • << - allows to view admission / transfer orders issued to a given ward on a week earlier than the current presented day
  • < - allows to view admission / transfer orders issued to a given ward on a day earlier than the current presented day
  • "Change date" - allows one to view any day, which should be indicated in the date field before pressing the "Change date" button
  • “Today” - alows one to view today's day
  • > - allows to view admission / transfer orders issued to a given ward on a day later than the current presented day
  • >> - allows to view admission / transfer orders issued to a given ward on a week later than the current presented day
  • >>> - allows to view admission / transfer orders issued to a given ward on a month later than the current presented day

Clicking on any of the above buttons changes the admission / transfer orders issued to a given ward for the appropriate day for which the button leads.

At each disposal you will see the "Make admission" button, which clicking results in displaying the admission form. The form specifies the date and time of admission, indicates the room, the bed for the patient, determines the attending physician and the type of stay. In the case of NHF stays and departments requiring a referral, the form indicates the referral (which should be issued in the emergency room together with the disposal of admission to the ward). In the case of commercial stays, a price list should be indicated and, if applicable, commercial services for implementation.

After filling in the form, if the indicated bed is free (which the system verifies), the system registers the patient's admission to the ward displaying a relevant message and a "Print band" button enabling the user to print a wristband.

After clicking the "Print band" button, a new window with a bar code opens and the printing process is automatically initiated.

After printing the band, closing the window with the bar code and clicking the "Finish" button, the view of the disposals is displayed again, but the completed disposal is no longer displayed in the list.
