Hi Mark, We also made the same change. We use the temporary location function in OE to give temporary access to the prior unit. It is available on the admin data screen or a separate routine that can be added to menus. The prior unit calls ICU and requests they temp locate to their floor. When they are done with their documentation, the requestor is responsible for removing the temp location. In 5.5 there is a new parameter Access Prev Pt Location ___ Hrs after Xfer that addresses this issue.

HTML will be converted to attachments. The meditech-l web site is MTUsers.com ====================================== We are a Magic 5.4 SR3 site. We recently changed our MIS user dictionary page 3 for most inpatient nursing staff to restrict by location of the machine. This has also presented a problem for transfers to the ICU following a code or change in condition. I have been tasked with finding out if there is any workaround for documentation after a patient has transferred to another location. Currently, the nurse from the prior unit has to go to ICU to document on the patient once they have transferred over to ICU. Any help or suggestions are appreciated. We have no intentions of changing the MIS dictionary setup back to not restricting by location. Just wanted to see if anyone else has had to deal with this issue and if you have anything in place that might help. Thanks. Mark H.
