Orchid Updates
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
