Sorting By Patient Information

   The Sort/Show dialog displays.
2. Select Sort By: in the Sort/Show dialog.

   

   The Sort By option list displays.
3. Select one parameter from the Sort By list to organize the grid by this parameter. For example, select LOS to display the patient list in order from the shortest to longest length of stay in the facility.
