Access a patient’s records - ACS and EPRF
When we attend to a patient, we capture all clinical information in our Electronic Patient Report Form (ePRF). This system creates an Ambulance Care Summary to make it easier for healthcare staff to access patient records – whether they’re transferred to hospital or not.
Patients can also access their own ACS if they like. A paper ACS sheet may be issued to a patient if they are not transferred to hospital; this sheet will assist in accessing the full electronic ACS.
Here’s how to access patient records, depending on your role:
Refer your patient for a medical alarm
Offer your vulnerable patients the confidence they need to stay independent and safe at home. It’s simple to refer and is the only mobile alarm that connects directly to us.
