Patient Tracking including Risk Managment System Dynamic, color-coded patient tracking shows the status of the Emergency Department instantly. At a glance, see how long each patient has been waiting and for what they’re waiting. Custom screens in each area of the department such as triage and fast track display only the data you want to see. Patients are tracked from pre-arrival through disposition and alerts for codes, time limits and test results are right on the tracking display. From a PDA to a plasma screen, patient tracking can be viewed from any location or device, eliminating walks across the department to a grease board. See a global view of all patients in the department, across the enterprise, or display only your own patients. Patients can be sorted based on virtually any factor such as mass casualty, boarders, financial class or any other criteria.
Admissions Tracking Immediate access to Emergency Department patient information enables admissions staff to assign a bed and notify the ED in real-time without the usual telephone calls, forms, etc. Admissions Tracking streamlines the bed assignment process, saving staff time and decreasing patient waiting time in the ED. Billing Recovery Track Tracking patients based on financial designation enables the Emergency Department to assist patients in locating alternative financial sources. Financial screening interviews can be conducted prior to disposition based on the patient’s financial designation. Clinical Competency & Certification Tracking Up-to-date tracking of core competencies eliminates manual certification tracking. Automatically track the expiration dates of CPR, ACLS, CEN and other certifications, by nurse, physician and other staff, to ensure awareness of when certifications must be renewed. Display Unoccupied Rooms Wellsoft can now be configured to display unoccupied rooms on the Patient Tracking Display. With this new feature, Wellsoft can display both occupied and empty rooms together directly on the Patient Track Display. This new capability works in conjunction with the existing sort and filtering of the rooms displayed on the Patient Track Display, presented by Area of Care, Districts, Pods or for the entire Emergency Department. Medical Records Management Tracking Prompt administrative review of Emergency Department charts can begin moments after the patient leaves the department using this display. Rapid feedback of documentation deficiencies promotes timely completion of the chart and initiation of the billing process. Emergency Department paperwork is reduced as is the likelihood of losing pieces of a patient chart. On Call Tracking Allow emergency department staff to rapidly request consults from the institution's specialty service on-call list. On Call Tracking consists of a custom rolodex tracking view showing the medical specialty service, the provider's name, office phone, office fax, pager number, and hours of on-call service. Additionally, the information can be automatically logged into a patient's EMR by a single click, recording the clinician requesting the consult, the time of first, second, and third pages, the time of arrival to the department and the status of the consultant process. The feature includes two administrative reports: All calls log per provider / specialty / or date, and a time distribution graph of calls with status points per provider / specialty / date. Radiology Tracking Dynamically track patients with radiology results apart from other patients to enable easy comparison of initial readings with the radiologist’s finding. Track patients by physician or time and flag for further follow up and quality assurance pathways. Registration Tracking Managing the registration process, including prioritizing patients for registration is simplified using this tracking feature. Registration Tracking not only expedites the process but also expands the number of reporting elements for quality improvement measures. Split Screen View
This new feature significantly enhances the amount of patient information and status of the Emergency Department presented to the user. Each Split Screen view is interactive and can be configured to display information independently. For example, in a vertical side-by-side Split Screen view, the left half of the screen can be configured to display the Patient Track showing solely patients that are currently in beds in the Emergency Department. On the right half of the screen, the Patient Track can be configured to display only the beds still available in the Emergency Department. As patients are moved into and out of rooms, the Split Screen views reflect the changes dynamically. The Split Screen feature can be configured to present quadrant views of the Emergency Department as well. 23-Hour Observation Track Real-time monitoring of patients in the department for extended periods enables staff to easily track this population separately from the general census. Unresolved Issues Tracking Effectively monitor post-discharge follow ups like positive blood cultures, patient complaints, and other issues. Unresolved Issues tracking ensures that outstanding concerns are tracked until resolution. « return to v11 Features |
