COVID-19 Vaccination Status

 

As of August 12th, 2021, patient COVID-19 Vaccination Status is being captured in a NEW EPR Assessment on ED and GIM Units. The ED Triage Nurses are capturing the information upon admission in the ER Triage and Pharmacists have begun documenting COVID-19 Vaccination Status as part of the BMPH on admissions of new patients on GIM. All other units will be supported by Pharmacy beginning August 23rd. Any vaccinations occurring on IP units are to be documented by the Clinician administering the dose at the time of administration.

 

There is no pharmacy support for OP areas at this time but individual clinics can complete the assessment as appropriate.

 

The COVID-19 Vaccination Status Assessment is accessible to EPR users with appropriate scope of practice in all IP and OP Areas. Clinical Leadership from all IP and OP areas are in the process of cascading education and all users are encouraged to utilize the tool as soon as they feel comfortable doing so.

 

Retroactive documentation will be completed on a unit by unit basis over the coming weeks.

 

Once vaccination status is documented, information will appear on the Patient Dashboard.
