If you don't mind me asking.  What questions are the facilities asking for both 
pneumonia and flu ?  We have been doing this for about 2 years now and have 
been having issues with the staff still not understanding how to complete the 
assessment.  The group keeps going back to what they chose as their screening 
tool but they never change anything.  I think that is the hold up with the 
staff.  I think if we could find something that was more streamlined and easier 
for the group to use their wouldn't be such an issue with the screens.

Jodi,

Create a NUR type CDS and attach it to the intervention.  The CDS should
have all of the queries you have on the eligibility form including a
query of eligible Y/N.

Then, create a NUR custom output format (NPR report with the DPM of
NUR.PC.WORK.zcus.prt.....)
Add a select field that checks the eligible query for Y

Then, add that output format to the NUR Intervention Dictionary, page
two with a destination of HERE or PHAR.

The result: When the nurse documents the intervention, if the patient is
eligible, the form will print to whichever destination(s) you set up.

Brian

We are currently using a paper form for assessing patient need for
pneumonia and flu vaccinations.  Would like to document in Meditech.  We
do not use POM or eMAR at this time.  How can I have the nurse document
the assessment in MT and automatically send this as an order to
pharmacy?  Our policy is such that if the patient meets the criteria and
there are no contraindications the physicians order is not needed.  

Thanks
