She made phone calls and eventually spoke to the attending which resulted in the discharge order being placed.
Today when I came into work for my 7am shift, I had a discharge at 8am. This patient did not have any discharge orders, and the on-call hospitalist was unable to help at that time. I was unable to reach the on-call social worker. Tiffany was walking in to start her shift and had not even set her belongings down when she offered to help me. She made phone calls and eventually spoke to the attending which resulted in the discharge order being placed. As a result, the patient could go to a skilled nursing home for continued care. Tiffany is always such a team player no matter the time of day or the patient. We are so appreciative of her!
