Stools and urine¶

The Stools / urine button of the resident’s sheet opens the screen. A stools or urine care of the Tasks list opens it too, for that kind.

Recording an observation¶

1. Choose Stools or Urine. The line below says where the follow-up stands: how long since the last one, and the volume of urine over 24 hours.

2. Under Passed?, tap Yes or Nothing passed.

3. For stools, choose the Bristol type, from type 1 (separate hard lumps) to type 7 (liquid).

4. For urine, enter the Volume (mL), if measured.

5. Add a remark under Anything to add: pad change, catheter bag, aspect…

6. Tap Save (or Save and tick the care).

The follow-up¶

Each resident followed carries a status for stools and for urine:

• Not recorded — no observation at all;

• Up to date;

• To watch — stools: 60 hours without any; urine: 20 hours;

• Alert — stools: past 72 hours; urine: past 24 hours.

The delay counts from the last stools or urine documented. Recording Nothing passed does not reset it.

The status shows:

• on the resident’s sheet, in the stools and urine card;

• in the bell, under Stools and urine: the residents to watch or in alert, the alerts first. A line opens the resident’s sheet.
