Discharges

The functionality of "Discharges" from the "Hospital" menu is used to handle the disposals for discharge of patients from the hospital. After selecting this functionality, the search engine is displayed for the disposals for discharge of 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. Then, a list of the disposals from a given ward issued today is displayed below the search engine. The search engine also has the following navigation buttons:

  • <<< - allows to view discharge disposals issued on a given ward on a month earlier than the current presented day
  • << - allows to view discharge disposals issued on a given ward on a week earlier than the current presented day
  • < - allows to view discharge disposals issued on 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 discharge disposals issued on a given ward on a day later than the current presented day
  • >> - allows to view discharge disposals issued on a given ward on a week later than the current presented day
  • >>> - allows to view discharge disposals issued on a given ward on a month later than the current presented day

Clicking on any of the buttons described above changes the view of the disposals from a given ward to the one applicable for the day to which the given button is leading.

To make an discharge, an authorized user clicks the "Make discharge" button next to a given patient in the list. The discharge form is then displayed (pre-filled with data extracted automatically from the treatment process with the possibility of modifying them) in which one must complete the patient discharge data section or the patient death data section and confirm with the "Make discharge" button.

The system then returns to the view of the discharge disposals on the ward, with the realized one disappeared from the list, while the download link (in the form of a PDF file) is displayed so the patient's hospital discharge could be printed out.
