====== Rooming ====== ---- - Don’t need to ask about reason for visit. Can ask here today for f/u on asthma/ eczema/ allergies? to keep it brief - For med allergies: ask if any change from last visit if follow up - Ask other questions briefly - Start asking smoking history at 12 - Remember to ask about signs of sickness - Usually a good idea to put all pts into rooms ASAP unless it would interfere with the schedule Ex: 10:00 gets to office before 9:30. If a pt is more than 35-40 min early, can ask MD - Use judgement based on where MD is during day Ex: if MD is running 20 minutes behind, can spend a few more minutes in room with pt if needed - For all ordered testing (EXCEPT SS), can put on all if pt is following up within reasonable time. Always a good idea to ask food testing pts (especially kids) if there are any new food concerns - SS will always see pts first, so can put pt in room and let her know they are here - MAs to check schedule for current day and chart on pts that were added after you checked for week. - MAS always check huddle notes for that day - let FD/ nurses know if they need to call pts/ make trays - If they have a dx of asthma or used an inhaler in the past year, do PFT unless EO pt. He will put in huddle note.
