We should be able to add a sliding scale to the insulin orders in the item master so the nurses don't always have to enter this when they enter an order.

Right now it sounds like the only capability to do this is to create an order set. In Healthland Centriq we were able to add a sliding scale to each medication we wanted, and then when the nurses ordered it in the chart, the scale would be there and if they needed to change it, they could just change it.

    My work around for this: we use order 'sets' for providers but we use order 'lists' as quick picks for each department. Since adding a sliding scale is time consuming and a little confusing - we have a section in the order lists with the header Sliding Scales. I built the order with the sliding scale attached, then labeled it in the 'long description' so the nurses will know what they are picking. Ex: Hospital Protocol Regular insuling sliding scale; or Dr. John Smith's Regular Insulin sliding scale, etc.
