AT encompass the pharmacists should be reviewing. You can give them authorization to change all meds to formulary. This saves any calls on statins, ppi, etc. You also should be pending your orders as soon as you know admit is coming. In Ace it when you make your admit templates make sure to add every prn for any situation, nausea, constipation, diarrhea, sob, pain, etc. This will make you able to do admit orders in just a few minutes. You can create specific templates like Stroke with HD, Post Hip, Ant Hip, Cardiac etc. I had at least 10 different order sets saved and never took more than a few minutes to do any admit orders.
The charge nurse should be able to look over the orders with dc instructions that come for anything missing as far as weight bearing but it should not matter much. If they arrive late they should have gotten scheduled meds or if they arrive in evening then only evening meds. Therapy wont start eval until in the morning and they stay in bed through the night. Nurses almost NEVER try to get them out of bed at night and use bedpans. If they arrive with a foley, leave it in, take it out in the morning.
