Brian, In our facility the Shift Assessment is required q shift and subsequent assessments are done PRN. We list the frequency for the Shift Assessment as Q Shift so it is "due" each shift. Subsequent assessments done after the shift assessment are in process interventions as interventions but we list the frequency as PRN or .PRN so they don't show up on the status board as interventions but they do not show up as "due". Hope this helps. Janet L.

This could be an alternative to "pop up" boxes. We have avoided using pop ups by adding the questions to a new "page" of the CDS, and skipping them (with attributes) if not applicable. This has worked well, until we started using the Status Board. Our "Shift Assessment" intervention CDS has nearly 1,000 queries on it. Most queries are on individual interventions as well (i.e. Skin Assessment, IV, WOUND, Patient Teaching, etc.) But, when we document the queries on the Shift Assessment, the individual interventions are still "DUE" on the status board. What we are thinking of is: Removing the queries from the Shift Assessment CDS and replacing them with one query (per individual intervention) that asks: "Document Skin Assessment" "Document Wounds" "Document...." A "Y" response would open up the individual intervention, document it, and file it, returning to the "Shift Assessment intervention each time. Any ideas?
