EHR Enhancements April, 2015 Summary | Quick Guide
ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD (EHR) ENHANCEMENTS FOR
APRIL 21, 2015 SUMMARY
FACILITY TO FACILITY DISCHARGE CLEAN UP
This will affect providers.
Currently when a Facility to Facility Discharge is completed it sits as a planned
admission medication reconciliation on the patient's chart. These planned admission
medication reconciliations are never removed if they are not used.
In order to remove clutter and to limit the potential of these old orders being activated
on an encounter three months down the road, they will be removed 21 days after being
planned if they have not been activated.
PROPOSED ORDERS FROM PHARMACIST
All pharmacists have been given the ability to write proposed medication orders to
providers. This access will be in addition to the existing Suggest Order used today.
What is the difference?
Proposed orders activate immediately when accepted by the provider.
A suggested order typically comes in a PowerPlan that is reviewed and then entered by
the provider.
NM NOTIFY ORDER
This will affect providers, nursing, allied health and support staff for inpatients and
emergency patients.
Nuclear Medicine orders will generate NM Notify orders for inpatients and emergency
patients.
The NM Notify order will alert personnel that the provider has entered a Nuclear
Medicine order.
The notify order will generate:

A nurse review notifying the nursing staff that nuclear medicine has been
ordered for their patient
P a g e |1
Partnering with you to deliver excellent patient care through technology and innovation.
Version: 3 | Date: April 8, 2015

A NM notify task is also available for use for those that choose to add the DI
notify task type to their task list
Status of NM Notify Order
When an NM order is placed, it will automatically generate an NM Notify order in a
Future (On Hold) status.
When the chart is closed, the order will go to an Ordered status.
ED NM icon
In the ED’s the NM icon will appear as a ToDo event on the tracking board.
CHANGES TO ECHO ORDERS – REMOVAL OF OTHER IN THE REASON
FOR ECHO FIELD
This will affect anyone who enters Echo referrals for:

LHSC Non-invasive Diagnostic Cardiology Department

St. Joseph’s Cardiac Investigation Unit
This change is a result of accreditation review.

report giving access to view the ECG once it is final.

faxing of the ECG tracing.

IV’s in line with how continuous IV’s are ordered.

DISCONTINUE (FUTURE) TPN (EXCLUDING LIPIDS) AND DISCONTINUE
(FUTURE) TPN & LIPIDS ORDERS
This will affect providers, dietitians, nursing and pharmacy.
A new Discontinue (Future) order(s) will provide a consistent method to future
discontinue TPN solutions. It will also ensure the patient receives the prescribed amount
and avoid manufacturing and delivery of TPN when it’s not required.
This document explains the workflow for providers, dietitians, pharmacy and nursing.
Reasons for the new order

Phone calls from the provider requesting future stoppages does not provide a
paper or an electronic trail

Canceled TPN (amino acid/dextrose) order removes the order from the MAR and
pharmacy but it does not reflection the true time period until the TPN is actually
to stop

Waiting to cancel the order in real time can be costly as pharmacy can create
TPNs that are not required
P a g e |7

Communication orders do not flow to pharmacy

Modifying the stop date/time of the TPN order changes the TPN entry to the
base solution it was built from causing confusion about the order

Blood Work and glucose related TPN orders within the “Total Parental Nutrition
(TPN) (Module)” are not canceled
