We use the bulletin board in our facility.  It does not become a permanent
part of the record, but is used in the way "post it" notes used to be used
on the paper chart.

Hi Lorna,

Our hospital is using the Bulletin Board feature in PCI.  It is primarily
used by our dieticians and social workers as a means of communicating to the
physicians such things as dietary suggestions, progress on patient 
placement etc...   (Sometimes they are also entering the information in 
the patient notes. They duplicate the information on the bulletin because
they fear that the physician may not go in and read the notes) 

It is not maintained as part of the permanent record.

The issue we are now facing is that we have implemented Clinical Review and
this does not display the bulletin. We are working with Meditech for a
custom to resolve this but even then -  the bulletin will not be able to
auto display  - the user will have to click on a button (which won't have
the ability of being "higher lit" if there is a new bulletin or an edit to 
an existing one).    So therefore - the user will have to always check it. 
 What they have to do now is access PCI to check to see if there are any
bulletins and so therefore have to access two different modules for 
patient information.     :(

Our dietary and social workers do not want to give up the bulletin
functionality. 

I would suggest if you are thinking about  implementing Clinical Review in
the future - that you consider the implications of implementing the PCI
Bulletin Board. 

Regards,
Sue

Hello,
 
We would like to ask users of Magic PCI if your organization is using the
Bulletin Board Functionality and in what context.  Are you using it as a
communication tool and if so, are all messages preserved and become a part
of your medical record?  Or Are the messages deleted at the end of the visit
with no existing archived copy except for the audit trail.
 
Thanks.
