DRAFT: Inpatient Mini-Squad
Background and Goals
Easily manage and support admissions, transfers and discharges for inpatient wards.
Give users basic information about patients on their ward to support clinical decision making (e.g. time since admission, time on this specific ward, important clinical information).
When needed, view connected/related patients on the same card in the ward view even if they are in separate wards (e.g. Mothers in postnatal and newborns in the NICUÂ Â
