ePCR Instructions

 

  • The Run Number/Incident Number should be the letter "A" for Advanced EMT, followed by the 2 digit month, the 2 digit day, and the 2 digit year, followed by a hyphen (-), then 001, 002, 003, etc.  For example A051524-001. The next ePCR would be A051524-002, etc.
  • Do not enter the patient's real name. I recommend a name representative of the patient type, such as "Jane Chest Pain", "Donnie Dyspnea",  "Larry Leg Pain", etc.
  • However, you MUST enter the patient's actual date of birth in order to display the patient's actual age, due to Patient Assessments by Age clinical requirements. 
  • Enter all procedures and medications in the appropriate location in the ePCR, as well as in the narrative section.
  • Enter all vital signs in the appropriate location in the ePCR.
