Track down patients with no meal order on file

Every hour during ordering windows, WebRun opens Computrition, finds patients with no meal order on file for the next service such as a new admit not yet ordered or an expired diet order, and posts the diet office a Slack list so someone can call the unit before the tray line closes.

In short

How do I catch patients with no meal order before the next tray line closes?

WebRun checks Computrition every hour for patients with no meal order on file for the next service, whether a new admit, an expired diet order, or a unit transfer. It posts the diet office a Slack list grouped by unit with the reason for each gap, so staff can call the floor and get an order placed before the tray line closes.

  • Missing orders get caught every hour instead of at tray line close
  • New admits and NPO reversals surface at the top of the list first
  • Diet office follows up with time left before the next meal service

Questions, answered

Does it place a meal order for the patient automatically?

No. WebRun only flags who has no order and alerts the diet office. Placing the actual order in Computrition is always done by a person after checking with the patient or unit.

Does it contact the patient directly to ask what they want to eat?

No. WebRun only posts an internal Slack list for your diet office. It never messages or calls a patient itself.

How often does it check for missing orders?

Every hour during your meal ordering windows, so a gap gets caught with enough time left for the diet office to call the unit before the tray line closes.
