We had our MIS people build us some searches: Pharmacy searches include specific chemo meds, antibiotics and a miscellaneous category that includes irritant veisicatn drugs like phenergan, dilantin etc. I meet with the pharmacy MIS person and update that list annually.
We also have a report that prints census for the whole facility with diagnosis , age, isolation status, physician etc. It is custom for us we cross reference the diagnoses with list our "hit list" diagnostic groups and add the drug list references. >From there we have a jumping off point for chart review..... Everything including our emergency room ins on line for documentation and the physicians are in the beginning phases of computer based order entry. That gives us a lot of info right from our office. Of course we do identify a number of patients based on poor access as the only criteria. Those we find on rounds for PIV placement.
