Retrospective. The provider must develop a patient care record (PCR) plan which should at a minimum include: • Compliance with County EMS Policy “Santa Xxxx County Patient Care Record”. Frequency of PCR review. Review for AMA Policy compliance. Verify that the requisite ECG documentation is on the record. Ensure proper documentation including xxxxx xxxxx. . Evaluate appropriateness of care rendered and the times documented. . Ensure that all records are properly filed and archived for future review according to the standards outlined in CCR, Title 22. . Base Station contact made according to protocol. . Ensure that copies of are timely and properly routed to the EMS office and base hospital. . Ensure that the destination hospital was appropriate. . Ensure the prompt filing of Radio Failure Reports and IO Reports. AMRW: Pages 7-8 & 10 EMSIA: PCR Plan Tab, Section A Data Collection and Analysis: Every record for responder and patient encounter must be entered into the County electronic PCR program. A policy must be developed that provides a method of ensuring compliance. Each agency may want to also consider developing their own database of information. AMRW: Page 8 EMSIA: Data Collection Analysis Tab, Section B Incident Review: A policy must be developed regarding the process of incident investigation and follow up. The policy should outline the process when inquiries are received from outside agencies as well as internal incident investigation. Additionally, personnel polices should address the personnel disciplinary process. AMRW: Pages 10 EMSIA: Incident Review Tab, Section C Response: For a number of reasons delayed medical response is an inevitability. A plan should be written that identifies a process of problem identification and resolution. AMRW: Page 10 EMSIA: Delayed Response Tab, Section D Remediation Plan: A process should be established regarding personnel remediation in the event that an investigation indicates this need. The County EMS never abrogates its authority to separately conduct its own investigation. AMRW: Page 11 EMSIA: Employee Remediation Tab, Section E Sentinel Event Review: Some issues in EMS deserve urgent individual scrutiny and follow-up procedures. Examples of this would be esophageal intubation, medication error (either route or dose), a late response with an adverse outcome, or patient complaints. A plan for dealing with these issues on an urgent and timely basis should be developed. AMRW: Page 11 EMSIA: Sentinel Event Review Tab, Sectio...
Retrospective looking behind. In epidemiology, a type of study in which the populations are identified after exposure to a presumptive toxic agent, in contrast to a prospective study. Reversible – not permanent, applied especially to adverse effects which diminish when exposure to a toxic chemical ends. Right-of-way – a corridor of low growing shrubs or grasses that facilitate the maintenance and protection of utility and transportation routes. Riparian habitat – areas adjacent to bodies of fresh water whose vegetation is influenced by its proximity to abundant water. Risk – the chance of an adverse or undesirable effect. Risk assessment – the qualitative and quantitative evaluation performed in an effort to estimate the risk posed to human health and/or the environment by the presence or potential presence and/or use of specific chemical or biological agents. Risk communication – the exchange of information about health or environmental risks between risk assessors, risk managers, the general public, news media, interest groups, etc. Risk management – the process of evaluating potential alternative regulatory and non regulatory responses to risk and selecting among them. The selection process necessarily requires the consideration of legal, economic, and social factors. River basin – the geographic area drained by a river and its tributaries. Rough fish – fish not prized for sport or eating, such as gar and suckers. Most are more tolerant of changing environmental conditions than are game or food species. Route of exposure – the way in which a chemical or biological agent enters the body. Most typical routes include oral (eating or drinking), dermal (contact of the agent with the skin), ocular (eye contact), and inhalation. Run-off – that part of precipitation, snow melt, or irrigation water that runs off the land into streams or other surface water. Safety Data Sheet (SDS) – a compilation of information required under the OSHA Communication Standard on the identity of hazardous chemicals, health, and physical hazards, exposure limits, and precautions.
