PIPD Update March 27, 2025

Peer FIT testing

Next dates for fit testing on the ward:

April 15/25 0930-1400

April 28/25 1930-2300

May 8/25 0930-1400

May 13/25 1930-2300


Measles

There is a work standard for placing suspected measles cases on the ward. The key point is these patients NEED to be in the negative pressure rooms (2301 and 2305). Having them in a regular room with the door closed and an air scrubber is NOT sufficient. If the patient is needing obs level of care we will need to adjust staffing to provide that level of care in those rooms, not move the patient to obs.

There is a copy of the work standard and the posters for the entrances in the charge nurse binder under M.

CNE Update 

Info tip of the Week - did you know that there are many pre-made discharge information sheets on the S-Drive? This includes information for you, the nurse, to teach on discharge and information for families on caring for their child after discharge! 

Check out the S-Drive: Pediatrics-Acute Care 🠆 Discharge and pt information (folder)

We would love to know what is missing for teaching families - send your ideas to us and we will reach out to physicians and the Outpatient Nurse Coordinators for that specialty.
