IV Site Assessment – Quick Tips
Wondering how best to document a reassessment of an IV site? Need to relocate an existing IV? This quick video walks you through the process to evaluate an existing IV and act based on that reassessment. If you are looking for more in-depth training, check out the IV Site Assessment – Overview course.
How to Defer Hard Stops
Hard Stops are in place to help ensure proper documentation has occurred prior to locking the record. However, there are times when it is not possible to document as required. This short course demonstrates the correct way to defer these hard stops.
EMS Treatment Prior to Arrival
When patients arrive via ambulance, it is important to document treatment that was given prior to their arrival. In this course, we review where to document this information.
Dischage Instructions
Exit-Writer updates the discharge instructions as new information becomes available related to COVID-19. Currently, we monitor these updates quarterly, making them available to our clients.
For this quarter (Q2) there are no new instructions, but these instructions were modified
- Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19): Overview
- Vaccines and Prevention
- Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19): Caring for Yourself or Others
- Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19): Pregnancy and Childbirth
- COVID-19 and the Flu: What’s the Difference?
- Understanding the mRNA COVID-19 Vaccine
These modified instructions are not available in EV, so for clients that want to include them, we recommend adding them as customized discharge instructions for COVID-19.
To retrieve the Exit-Writer COVID-19 discharge instruction file: EV Help > Help Topics > EV Administration Help > Tools > Discharge Instruction Manager > Create custom instructions > COVID-19 PDF discharge instructions (see screenshot below)
EV Help describes how you can create customized discharge instructions: EV Help > Help Topics > EV 6.1 Admin Help > Tools > Discharge Instructions Manager > Create custom instructions
Cloud-based clients should reach out to Client Support to create, edit, or customize your discharge instructions
Staff Turnover? We can help!
Many of our clients have recently been impacted by staff turnover. This presents an added challenge when onboarding users to existing software applications. Our clients have access to a wealth of education materials and videos using our online learning system. Using our curricula, you can easily enroll users in the courses that pertain to their role:
- Clerk – Curricula – EV
- Nurse – Curricula – EV
- Provider – Curricula – EV
Your LMS Administrator can assign these courses to your users. If you do not have an LMS administrator, please send an email to us at tsystem@corrohealth.com.
Additionally, we are hosting a 1-hour webinar for Nurses on August 16th at 1 pm Central time. We will cover the basics of nurse documentation from Triage to Discharge. Please click the link below to register:
