Housekeeping Order Entry

Steps:

• Main Menu
• OM Requisitions
• On the right side, click “Enter”
• Hit “+” next to Environmental Services Discharges
• Click on “Environmental Services Discharges” or click the Box and hit Select at the bottom
• Click on “routine”
• Click on the red “Edit” that pops up
• Note* For sunrooms and exam rooms, use room 99 and add a comment for sunroom/exam room

After hitting submit you will notice it can take 2-3 min sometimes to process. You will notice at the top right a cog wheel that turns. You can let that run and use the “Return to” button to go back to bed management or where ever to continue other work.  You can also use your second screen to open a second OM Requisitions.

Also a helpful hint: Over time, using the same “OM Requisitions” will get sluggish when you enter the above info. I personally close out of OM Req in the “Return to” green button when I’m done and opening a new one every time. It’s much faster over all.
