, What causes information to appear in the Patient Events Log? - Information appears in
the Patient Events Log whenever an Event is 'fired' in the ED. The events that can be

listed in its Department record. Events can be set to fire when a status is changed,
when orders are placed, when results are sent, when an ED Disposition is selected,
based on ADT settings, when a patient's treatment team is updated, and even when a
Flowsheet Row is filed.

to prevent an event from automatically updating a patient's status when not appropriate.
Name two of the necessary components that must be added to a CER Rule. - Context -
in order to link a CER Rule to a given area, an appropriate Context must be defined. 2)
