In-Patient Allergy Policy and Documentation Tool Implementation


From Frances Flint, Director of Nursing Practice and Informatics:

Implementation of the Allergy Policy and documentation tool, the Inpatient Allergy Record is scheduled for the week of June 2, 2008. The policy has been approved by NAC, PAC and MAC and is now posted on the intranet. The link is http://mysb.ca/data/1/rec_docs/6990_I_A_2150.pdf

The Inpatient Allergy Record is available through print shop PR # 999968. Please note the instructions on the reverse side of the form. Please inform the PAA’s of the new form and add it to your pre-admission packages.
The Inpatient Allergy Record should be placed in front of the physician order sheet of the health record. In due course the physician order sheet will be changed to indicate completion of the new Inpatient Allergy Record.
