Post ED Follow-Up (Order)

• There is a “Post ED Follow-Up” order that can be accessed from the ED Quick Orders or by searching the order catalog.

• This order can be used to send a request to schedulers to contact the patient and attempt to get them scheduled for a follow-up appointment.
• Please note that this process does not guarantee a follow-up can be accomplished in the specified timeframe but that an attempt will be made.
• Ensure that patients talk to registration before leaving, because they collect the necessary contact information for this process.
• Best practice is to verify directly with patient the contact information on file

Post Discharge Clinic (PDC)

• Monday - Friday, 8am-5pm
• Located at Kirkland Clinic. There is also a Gardendale location open on Fridays.
