Try going into the pharmacy dictionaries and opening the “Directions”
dictionary. You can create a mnemonic for your 15 minute interventions then
enter down to your facility then shift R arrow from your facility to the
modules, then shift R arrow from the NUR module into the times and enter the
times.
Use that direction mnemonic for the q 15 min intervention when you set
up the intervention in the NUR Intervention dictionary and make sure you set
documentation limit percents so meditech will recognize that documentation has occurred
and remove each episode of required documentation as it occurs and pop up the
next one.

======================================
All,
I've been trying to create a pilot program for implementing our Status
Board and Flowsheet functions in Meditech. We demo'd what we have to
some of the staff the other day, but Labor and Delivery had a question I
could not answer. The Status Board reminders for scheduled
interventions are WONDERFUL and would be of great help to many areas in
our hospital, but there seems to be some issues with timing. I'm hoping
it is just something I am missing in the dictionary for directions
and/or the status board/flowsheet dictionaries themselves. I'd like to
have these features available to all our units eventually.
I have tested these features with interventions as close as Q2H, and
they seem to work fine. The reminder notices show in the Status Board
and I can click on the '+' on the flowsheet to see more detailed info
for interventions documented in shorter time periods than what the
columns define.
The question L&D has is that many of their interventions are Q15M
(Every 15 minutes). When I try to assign this in the directions, I get
the initial reminder notice, but none of the other upcoming
interventions display...even after documenting one, I won't get a
reminder for the next one. I know I can assign status board/flowsheet
by location, so I just need to know what settings to change to have
these reminders pop up for them at Q15M if possible.
If anyone out there has successfully implemented the Status Board and
Flowsheet, I'd love to get input from you! Our nursing staff really
believes this is the one thing we've been missing to tie it all together
and I'd like to have this up and running as soon as possible for them.
Thanks in advance!
