Note BC Children’s Hospital (BCH) does not use the Tracking Shell. Therefore, patients will need to be checked out from the Ambulatory Organizer to remove them from the specific location.

NOTE: In order for you to check out patients from the Ambulatory Organizer, your position requires to have Reg/Sched (e.g., Position: Ambulatory Nurse with Reg/Sched).

Navigate to Ambulatory Organizer on the toolbar.

WARNING: Ensure that you select the appropriate checkout from the drop-down options. If the wrong selection is made your patient will display at the wrong location

Click OK.

In Ambulatory Organizer, you can view that the patient is checked out.

The Checked Out status will display in the status column next to the patient’s name.

Once the patient is checked out in Ambulatory Organizer, the patient’s location is updated.
