Connect Care StreetSmarts - Admission Workflows

This section summarizes recommendations about how to use Connect Care to support admissions to inpatient facilities. The focus is on prescriber accountabilities when tasks may be shared by more than one individual. Prescribers can hand off to one another while an admission workflow is in play. Prescribers may also work in teams, including trainees, where tasks are assigned to different individuals.

Workflow Sequencing

Completing a full patient admission can take time, especially for clinicians new to Connect Care workflows. In addition, front-line pressures may present multiple simultaneous admissions. It can help to break the workflows into discrete steps so that work can be initiated, interrupted, then resumed. The following steps and sequencing can be adapted to different work contexts.
