Hints and Tips

• Incomplete Census items can be viewed on both the Clinical/Care Services and Admin/Billing Dashboards.
• A room/unit change in the system will not automatically update any clinical items (such as custom assessments/evaluations or Point of Care tasks) that you have on a room/unit specific basis. You will need to review these clinical items to determine if any additions and/or updates are needed.
