Overview:

The Hospital Location file contains all the hospital locations such as wards and clinics. There is a Ward Location file. Add/Edit Beds [DGPM BED ENTRY/EDIT], and Ward Definition Entry/Edit [DG WARD DEFINITION] are menu items that are used for the stated purpose. However, they may or may not create things in the Hospital location file correctly. Wards apparently link from hospital location to ward location file. If it isn't in the hospital location file things do not work right. To take an location out of the CPRS-type lists change its location to something like OTHER LOCATION versus WARD or CLINIC and it will not show in the usual CPRS lists.

Here is a quick terminal session on getting into fileman transferring the existing WorldVistA EHR/VOE 1.0 default DR OFFICE location in the Hospital Location File and changing it to ICHS Admitting. Unfortunately, it appears as though some fields are blocked because of the clinic nature of WorldVistA EHR/VOE 1.0 so that I could not add Admitting as the type of setting:
