Source: DRH PGY-1 handoff

Blood pressure cuff for patients with hypertensive disorder of pregnancy:

  • Order blood pressure cuff prior to discharge.
  • See blood pressure flowsheet for process and who patient should see for BP check.

Follow-up appointments:

  • Send internal communications for every practice except county health department patients (Person County, Durham County, Wake County, etc.).
  • Dot phrase: .internalcommunication

Summaries:

  • Make sure they’re done between you and the team (build personal D/C summary list because people come off the list quickly).
  • Same-day surgery going home → NO D/C Summaries.
