Team rounds can be conducted virtually using Switchboard through inpatient virtual meeting rooms.
Coordination between care teams is important to ensure other virtual team meetings are not scheduled during the same time period. Coordination between rounding team members should also be considered (i.e. meet in patient room x at x time on Switchboard).
Once logged into Switchboard, select "CHOOSE INPATIENT":
1. Select your entity
2. Select BY TEAM
3. Select your team from the dropdown menu
Note: Your primary team may designate a specific patient, such as the first patient on the list, for rounding purposes.
4. Select Video meeting
5. Select Join meeting
Once all clinicians are in the meeting, the option to lock/unlock the room is available on the upper-left corner of the meeting.
When rounding is complete, it is recommended to “DROP EVERYONE” from the meeting to ensure privacy for the next meeting.
