Please ensure you follow-up all your results in a timely manner.
If you are away find someone else to check your mail for you.
Try to verify contact info too for patients as you can and ensure that staff verify the personnel information if you see the “personal information sheet not verified” on the chart!!
We have had to send police to find patients a couple times recent! And many people are still dealing with a sentinel case (from 2015) that patient was never contacted about their positive blood culture and died!
If you can’t contact the patient to give them results ( for some reason) and need help to guide/support …call me and I will help direct you.
