Two links need to be made between Location and Service Area and between
Department and Location. What are they? - ANSWERADT and billing
True or False: Each Room record may contain only one Bed record. - ANSWERFalse;
while Epic recommends maintaining a 1:1 room and bed ratio, multiple bed records can
be linked to a room record.
Explain a reason why you would want to create a Patient List for your Emergency
Department. - ANSWERThere are two primary reasons. 1) The ED tracking tools are
periodically refreshed against this pre-filtered list of patients linked to the ED. 2) Other
users outside the department can use this list to view information about patients in the
ED without leaving their locations.
You have created a Patient List and attached it to your department. But, when your
users log in and access the ED Manager, no beds appear. What do you need to do on
the following screen to fix this and why? - ANSWERBed Occupancy Status must be set
to 'Both occupied and unoccupied beds' in order for empty beds to show up on the ED
Manager.
Define the Term Facility structure - ANSWERFacility structure is often dictated by either
billing (e.g., Resolute) or ADT systems, and it is only necessary to attach a new
department to the appropriate level within an existing structure. In training, we can
emulate that.
Make sure you can perform the following tasks:
Create and properly link a Department record for use in your organization
Use the Bed Administration activity to build Room and Bed records
Create a Patient List for your department - ANSWERTalk about where this is Done
True or False: All Epic master files are accessible from within Chronicles. -
ANSWERTrue
List the options available in a Care Area record's Linked ADT Arrival Status field and
explain what that field affects. - ANSWERExpected: Sets the ADT Status of patients
placed in this care area to Expected. Waiting: Sets the ADT Status of patients placed in
this care area to Waiting. Roomed: Sets the ADT Status of patients placed in this care
area to Roomed.
, This field also filters what types of care areas you will be able to add into the
Department record in text. For example, you may not add a Care Area with a Roomed
ADT Arrival Status in the Expected Care Area section of your Department record.
In which master file can you determine the layout of care areas in the ED Manager
activity? - ANSWERDepartments/Units (DEP), on the ED Manager Settings screen
In the In-Class Exercises for this chapter, in the first four Care Area records we built, we
left the ED Manager View field blank. However, when we tested our build, we saw that
columns were indeed displaying for those care areas in the ED Manager. How is that
possible? - ANSWERThe ED Manager View field in a Care Area record is an override to
the default view specified in the profile. When we tested our build in class, we logged in
as the nurse on our info sheets. The nurse's user records are linked to a profile that has
a default Manager view specified. Whenever we log in to our ED, Hyperspace first
consults our Care Area records to see whether a view is attached. If not, it uses the
profile view.
Define the following term - Care Area - ANSWERit is often desirable to display details
about patients in similar areas of the ED together in context with one another. In ASAP
ED, the concept of a collection of rooms is referred to as a Care Area.
Define the following term - ADT Status - ANSWERASAP also comes with three ADT
Arrival Statuses. These statuses are used by the system regardless of whether Epic's
Grand Central software is licensed and denote the ADT status for the patient (which is
different than the patient status).
Define the following term - ToolTip - ANSWERToolTip Label - The label that displays
with the information in the tooltip when a user rests the mouse pointer over a patient's
name.
Tooltip Extension - A record containing code that accesses the information for the tooltip
when a user rests the mouse over a patient's name on the ED Manager or ED Map.
Define the following term - View - ANSWERA View record (LVW) is a collection of
columns used to present information on the ED tracking tools that appear on ASAP
users' home activities. View records can be embedded within the ED Manager, the
Track Board, and the Unit Map
Describe how you could Perform the following tasks:
- Configure a Care Area record - ANSWERFirst you have to go into Chronicles and
Create the Acute Area, then you need to define the Care Area Settings such as Linked
ADT Arrival Status, Admission Confirmation and Transfer Confirmation Record.
Finally you would then Link you Department to your Care Area
