Great job with the Orchid roll-out!  Here are a few updates/reminders:

  • Dynamic documentation is required.
  • Make sure to complete “Required Provider Note Information” daily.
  • Refresh often!
  • Reconcile meds and orders on a daily basis.
  • Convey all STAT orders with nursing verbally.
  • For portable CXR, specify “portable” under transport mode.
  • To hold medication, you must discontinue and then reorder at later time.
  • Forward all notes using the “SIGN” button instead of “REVIEW.”
  • In Urgent Care, housestaff may complete Econsults up until 11/13 instead of the Urgent Care attendings.
  • Notes need to be forwarded to attendings, but orders do n0t require co-signature by attending (unless written by medical students or IMGs, who should forward to the intern or resident)
  • When admitting patients via the GEN MED ADMIT power plan, UNcheck the MRSA screen since nursing are already doing this if indicated
