PA EMS Protocols

This app just got a major update- a new "Resources" section! In this section is one killer feature- a hospital list that, if you enable geocoding, will filter the hospitals by those which are closest to you. Always make sure you're getting to the closest appropriate facility by enabling geocoding right away! Without geocoding enabled, you can still view/search the hospital list. Not only that, the new hospital list includes which resources are stemi, stroke, or trauma centers, so you can get to the right place that is closest to you quickly. Please note, most of the hospital entries were researched and done manually. If you notice any problems, please be sure to use the new contact-us feature in the app to let us know of corrections. The hospital listing requires a network connection to work, but it does allow immediate updates in the event something wrong is found. Also includes minor bugfixes, an option to remove ads through an in-app-purchase, and some general UI tweaks. Enjoy!

Updated protocol 7002, minor bug fixes and enhancements

New- Share links to protocols using the share button at the top-right of a protocol page. This creates a link that can be mailed, copied, messaged, or opened in any browser. New- Added a "Regional" page to resources to begin categorizing a searchable list of all regional protocols and important forms for each region. As many providers work in multiple regions, we display everything and make it searchable with a region prefix affixed to the start of each regional resource. Prior regional items have been moved. Official regional documents can be added by reaching out to support. Fixed- Increased compatibility for iOS devices that do not use a home button.

Fixed- bug that prohibited ALS drug list from showing. Fixed- bug that caused Stroke Centers not to be labeled correctly if they weren't a trauma or STEMI center.

Fixed: Bug that prevented search results from displaying stroke centers Updated: Hospitals with 12/20/16 stroke list, updated for newly constructed hospitals. If there are other hospital updates, please be sure to use the contact us link in the Resources section to let us know! Other: Minor back-end improvements to prepare for upcoming protocol revisions. This app does not yet contain the 2017 revisions.

New protocols are due out in a few months, and this update puts into place some back-end improvements so that when they are released, you have them available quickly! NEW - Push Notifications- Know when new resources are added or new protocols are added NEW - Update Log under the More tab, so you know when things have been added or changed UPDATED- Font size for bottom tab bar MIGRATED - Back end services to a different platform, some services may load faster

The content of this app has been updated to include the 2017 version of the latest protocols. Please check with your medical director if you plan to use the 2017 edition of these protocols prior to September 1st, 2017. Updates include- New Human Trafficking Protocol, New Glucose Measurement Protocol, Spine care changes, Naloxone administration updates, Excited Delirium protocol, and indexes added to the app. No Critical Care Protocol updates were noted, so the app still uses the 2015 edition of those.

New- Added a filter button to the Hospital List to filter by Stemi, Stroke, Trauma, Burn, or Pediatric Centers. Updated- Hospitals with latest joint commission, PA DOH, Mission Lifeline, and Chest Pain Center data to make sure capabilities are as accurate as possible. If you notice something missing or incorrectly labeled, let us know ASAP!

Critical update- due to a limitation with the prior hosting provider, we had to make a quick switch. This update restores connectivity to all resources

Minor hospital data tweaks and bug fixes. - Changed sharing url in order to prevent errors caused by url shortening. It may have a longer URL, but it shouldn't cause any sharing problems anymore - Tweaked the back-end rendering of protocols when clicked - Fixed some subtitle problems with hospital capabilities

This release is a major update- the entire application has been rewritten from scratch to fix some bugs and to work faster on more devices. The hospital filter function has been changed to not present an overlay that obstructs hospitals. Notification handling was also updated. Share function was fixed. Many other visual enhancements were added.

Minor bug fixes to keep things up to date.

Updates due to some changes in backend services. 1- Removed the "time to location" geocode function due to 3rd party provider announcing an end of support for the project. 2- Added a new link under the "More" tab to the EHSF's own "PA Medic" hospital status system, which may provide divert, phone numbers, and more for hospitals. 3- Fixed an issue where map locations were not opened in some mapping programs.

1) Added Dark Mode to all resources 2) Updated the Hospitals tab to make use of the EHSF's great PA Medic resource, which provides much requested phone numbers and geolocation again. This is a third party service, but the app now provides a convenient way to access it and quickly return to protocols. 3) Improved Protocol display handling 4) Updated notification handling 5) Minor assorted bug fixes and enhancements to prep for the upcoming major protocol reformat. Notification fixes.

This release is a major update to the app to make sure that providers always have access to the most current protocols when treating patients in the field AND now includes hospital traffic/distance/travel time information for all users! Ads were removed, the geocoding behavior changed, and search/overall appearance of this application tweaked to provide the best look possible. PLEASE NOTE: This version requires an active internet connection to function properly. This is to make sure that protocols do not sit outdated and allow for quicker updating when things change. If you require offline access to protocols, this version may not be for you.
