Janet,

The intervetions that display in the Worklist are there because they have valid 
directions and have not been documented.  If you have interventions that are 
not to be documented on, just remove the directions and they will not show up 
on the Status Board or in the Worklist.

If you have interventions that you want available from the status board or 
Worklist but not due at any particular time, you can use directions with a 
period in front of it. (For example: .PRN)  The period causes the program to 
ignore the directions but the intervention will be on the Status Board and 
Worklist at the very bottom with a due time of (...).

Hope this helps,
Kenny Whiteside

BlankI am working on setting up our Nursing Status Board (still!).  I have a 
couple of questions I'm hoping someone can help me with.  First, when I use the 
worklist function, every single intervention shows up.  We have a lot of 
interventions that we don't necessarily document on, they are just what we 
should be doing from the plan of care....skin care, etc.  We also have a lot of 
teaching interventions, but we don't have directions on them.  They are taught 
as needed.  I'd like the teaching interventions to show on the worklist but I 
don't want all of the other documentations to show.  Is there somewhere you can 
say to only show interventions with certain print priorities or something?  
Also, when we enter orders they are verified.  Is there someway to have the 
status board know that they are verified and do not need to be acknowledged?
Thanks.
