Transfer Routine and Bed ready

Bed Ready: You can review, add and remove a bed status by using either the Worklists or the Bed Board:

• Worklists
• Bed Board

** Note: this is also the area where you can block a bed. Instead of using READY, use BLOCK BED option

Transfer Routine:  There are many ways to complete a transfer. The following is the most basic way:

1. Bed Management Desktop
2. Single Mode
3. Transfer
4. Account Identifier = Patient name/info/account #
5. Transfer date/time = Date and time of when the patient was physically moved.
6. Room = Enter the room (NBA3.25, NBC1.12REH, etc)
7. Room Rate = Auto fills. Change if coverage changes or if patient needs isolation or if isolation is removed.
8. Service = Change if needed (If patient moved from ICU to MED)
9. Transfer Reason – F9 look up and choose most appropriate option

** Note: You can use the Transfer option when you answer a Message/Task transfer request.  The Message Task, once you select the message, brings you into that account. You can Transfer, Edit, Discharge, LOA all from within the Message/Task section.
