Hold Type — Hold Types refer to a special type of timer that is for Behavioral Health holds. These kinds of holds often concern the patient's mental health or drug abuse. Usually the state where the campus is located determines the length of time a patient must be held to allow caregivers to decide the appropriate and most effective treatment plan. Sometimes, there are multiple different kinds of Behavioral Health holds each requiring a different amount of time. Administrators may configure different kinds of Behavioral Health holds in the Admin Tool > Dictionaries and in the Admin Tool > Enterprise > Campus sections. Hold Types are set for a campus, and each campus can have a maximum of three active hold types.

This is NOT the patient's estimated length of stay (based on the length-of-stay value associated with the unit or the enterprise). It is the actual number of days since the patient was admitted to the hospital, rounded to one decimal place. If a discharged patient appears in search results, then the LOS value will be the number of days from the patient's admit date to discharge date. If there is no admit date for this patient, then the column is blank.

Patient Attribute Icons and Attribute Category Icons: Icons that represent individual patient attributes, such as Fall Risk, Hard of Hearing,

Patient Name: If you have the View Patient Diagnosis and Name permission, you may view the patient's name in the Patient Name column in the Capacity IQ® PreAdmit application and Patient Tracking Portal application. If an alias was entered and the Confidentiality check box was selected on the Patient/Placement Details form, and the Display Alias for Patients setting under Console Settings is enabled, then the alias appears instead of the patient's name.

Patient Status or Pt Status: This column displays the patient status such as PendT for Pending Transfer or ConfD for Confirmed Discharge.

Patient Type: The Patient Type column in the Capacity IQ® PreAdmit application and Patient Tracking Portal application displays the patient type.

Placement (Plc) Status: This column displays the patient placement status such as Assgd for Assigned or Rqstd for Requested.

Patient Placement Status or ST - This column displays a combination of the patient status (such as PreAdmit or Pending Transfer) and placement status (such as Assigned or Requested). It also indicates whether the patient is incoming or outgoing. You may also see whether the patient is in a status of Inhouse, or Outpatient.

PCP Physician - The patient's primary care physician.

PPI (Patient Placement Indicators): The PPI column displays bed and patient attributes, and isolation types associated with a patient's placement request.

PreAdmitTimer—The PreAdmit Timer column shows the number of hours and minutes that have elapsed since the placement request was created for a patient who is in Pending Placement status. The timer stops automatically if 1) the patient's status changes from Pending Placement to any other status or 2) the placement request is cancelled through the ADT system. In the Admin Tool or in Admin > Settings > Capacity Management, the administrator can set up to two time limits, called placement timer thresholds, for each unit. The placement timer thresholds represent a number of hours and minutes after the placement request is created (such as 01:30 for 1 hour and 30 minutes). If a patient is not placed before these time limits expire, notifications are sent to subscribing users and the PreAdmit Timer column becomes yellow (when the first time limit is exceeded, if two time limits were set) and then red (when the final time limit is exceeded). For example, the administrator could set the first placement timer threshold to 1 hour for the Blue Unit. If a patient with a home location in the Blue Unit is not placed within one hour of the placement request being created, then the PreAdmit Timer column for that patient on the Pending/Confirmed Discharge list view becomes yellow. Notifications about the placement timer threshold being exceeded are sent to users who subscribed to them. If the administrator set 3 hours as the second placement timer threshold, then if a patient is not placed within 3 hours after the placement request is created, then the PreAdmit Timer column for that patient becomes red and notifications are sent to users who subscribe to them. If only one placement timer threshold was set, then the column becomes red when that threshold is exceeded.

Procedure: Any notes that were entered in the Procedures/Precautions box on the Patient Placement/Details form or in the Procedure column of a list view for this patient.

Projected Discharge Date—The patient's projected discharge date. You may click the date in the list view to change it. The patient's discharge milestones are displayed in the Milestones column.

Projected Discharge Time—The patient's projected discharge time.

RTLS Badge: The column is only available if the RTLS Integration Master Configuration setting is enabled. If a patient who appears in a list view has a badge, then the badge number appears as a link in this column.

RTM@ (Ready to Move): The RTM@ column in a patient row can display the Ready to Move button (- -). If the RTM@ field displays a time, then the patient was marked "ready to move" at that time.

Ready to Move (RTM) Timer: Displays (in a patient row) the number of hours and minutes between when the patient's placement request was activated and when the patient was marked "ready to move" to a bed.

Referring Physician: The physician who referred the patient for care.

Requested: This column displays the date and time that a bed is needed for the patient. If the column is blank, then the patient does not have an open placement request.

Requested by User (Req User): The user who created the placement request for this patient. If the column is blank, then the patient does not have an open placement request.

Requested Date/Time—The date and time that the placement was requested. The date and time are in the format selected for Date Time Settings in the Enterprise-Wide Settings section of the Admin Tool or Admin > Settings > Capacity Management component.

Spec Location: If the patient currently has a procedure in progress, this is the bed that the patient is assigned to for the procedure. Depending on selections made in the Admin Tool or Admin > Settings > Capacity Management component, the column displays either the bed's IVR ID code, the bed's abbreviation, or the bed's name.

Specialty Unit—The specialty unit associated with the patient (for example, CCU, ICU). If the patient is associated with multiple specialties (for example, Neurology and Cardiovascular), then multiple entries appear. Specialty units are configured in the Dictionary Management section of the Admin Tool or Admin > Settings > Capacity Management component or of Admin > Settings > Capacity Management.

Staff Type: You can display staff assignments for each bed row and patient row based on staff type. The staff member information that displays in the column for each bed or location will be based on whether or not your organization has shifts assigned.

Target—The patient attribute that is selected on the Patient/Placement Details form. Patient attributes are used in conjunction with bed attributes to match a patient with an appropriate bed. For example, a patient with a MRSA patient attribute could be placed in a bed that has an Isolation bed attribute. (Some patient attributes appear in the Bed Attributes column.)

Target Unit: The preferred unit in which to place the patient. A target unit is selected when a placement request is created or edited or from the Patient Status or Placement Status column in the Patient Tracking Portal application. If the patient does not have an open placement request, this column is blank.

Transport Status: If a patient who appears in a patient row of the list view has an active transport job, the status of the patient's earliest active job appears in the Transport Status column.

Unit—The unit that the patient is or will be admitted to. The list of units is configured in the Dictionary Management section of the Admin Tool or Admin > Settings > Capacity Management component or of Admin > Settings > Capacity Management.

Visit Number: Visit Numbers are codes that identify each of the patient's hospital stays. The visit number is used in conjunction with the medical record number to identify the patient. If you have the View Patient/Placement Details or Edit Patient/Placement Details permission, you may click the visit number on a list view in the Patient Tracking Portal application to access the Patient/Placement Details form for this patient. Either the visit number or the medical record number (MRN or Med Rec #) must be unique for each patient visit.
