Priority Access Card (PAC) for the Homeless Titanium Database Training Resource for Oral Health Providers

Purpose This training resource has been developed to provide you with instructions. Part 1: Titanium data entry Part 2: Running reports from Titanium For the second phase of implementation of the Priority Access Card (PAC) for the homeless.

Background Information The Priority Access Cards (PAC) were printed with unique identifying numbers for the second phase of implementation. These cards were distributed to each homeless centre with the numbers noted. With your help, we are able to reconcile and identify, the homeless centre and the method of distribution.

Background Information: Priority Access Cards – Unique Identifiers What do we mean by two methods of distribution? Method A card Method A: Active – Case Manager or Community Nurse intervention (BLUE CARD) Method B: Passive - Client collects from the waiting area (GREEN CARD) Method B Card Unique identifiers preprinted here A10001 P80010

Part 1 data entry: What do the Unique Identifiers mean to us? Codes have been added to the Titanium database to assist in evaluating the second phase of implementation.

Rationale: When a Homeless Person presents with a Priority Access Card Why did we use code numbers in Titanium? We needed to identify; 1.Which Homeless service distributed the card 2.The type of distribution method (active or passive) 3.Build on current procedures for Oral Health Services rather than create additional spreadsheets (electronic or paper)

Part 1 Data Entry: When a Homeless Person presents with a Priority Access Card Codes have been formatted in the Titanium database that correspond to the numbers on the Priority Access Cards……however we were unable to exactly match due to character limitations. So…

Part 1 data entry: This is what it looks like in Titanium
