Viewing the Level of Care Report

The report first displays the report title, Level of Care, and the report date. Then for each level of care, the report displays the following information sorted by descending care level value.

(Optional) Facility: If your organization has more than one facility, the report displays the abbreviation for your selected facility.
Level of Care: The Level of Care group name and its abbreviation, such as Critical Care: CC
Level: The group's care level expressed as number between 1 and 10.
Effective Date: The date of the most recent change to the group.
Locations: The locations assigned to the group, such as SICU or 9E ICU.
Alert Ranges: The percentage of a patient's length of stay in the level of care group that will trigger an alert when the specific level of care group defines the patient's library pattern.
- For example, assume that the following values are set up for critical care, and a patient's expected length of stay in Critical Care for Pattern A is 3.2 days (76.8 hours). The Level of Care alerts then start and stop as follows:
