The Facility Transfer – Sending and Receiving forms have replaced the existing Transfer form. These are now 2 separate forms within TechCare®. Each form has the patient’s current medications pre-populated into a grid layout displaying Medication and Quantity columns. You are only able to edit the quantity column. You must enter the quantities for each medication before you can save the form. This ensures that the correct quantities are filled in for the medications listed in the Facility Transfers – Sending and Receiving forms. To access these forms, from the Global Menu, select Queues, then click Nurse’s Queue.
The system displays the Nurse’s Queue. The Alerts tab is the default tab when you enter the queue. You can click any tab along the top to display information for that tab. To view the Facility Transfer forms, click the More Reports dropdown menu, and select the Facility Moves option.
You can use the Action dropdown menu to select which form you need to complete for the patient. If you are sending the patient out of your facility, use the Facility Transfer – Sending option to complete this form. If you are receiving a patient into your facility, select the Facility Transfer – Receiving form.
