There are three main states for a patient:
- Patient is currently en route to a location.
- Patient is currently at a location.
- Patient is no longer being tracked in the application, such as after being discharged or fleeing the scene.
EMTrack's Common Operating Picture (COP) provides the same patient summary information for all entities involved in patient tracking and allows interoperable communication between agencies. This enables you and other organizations to work together in the tracking and coordination of patient movement.
You can enter patient data into EMTrack using EMTrack Web, Mobile, and/or Lite.
Web
Authorized users employ EMTrack Web (hereafter referred to as “EMTrack”) to capture patient information and track their location or movement. EMTrack has many additional functions, including running reports, viewing regional and incident data, and family reunification.
Mobile
EMTrack Mobile runs on smartphone devices.
EMTrack Mobile is an essential tool for incident responders who work at the site of the incident and rely on mobile devices to gather critical client data. The app offers a key subset of EMTrack incident response functions in an easy-to-use app available for iOS and Android™ platforms.
Incident responders can use the app's forms to quickly and easily collect client data and tracking information by performing common, critical functions, such as scanning bar codes and triage tags, specifying triage and demographic information, and transporting, receiving, and discharging clients. With Internet connectivity, patient information is uploaded to EMTrack Web.
Lite for Windows
EMTrack Lite can be installed on Windows devices, providing you with quick access to a configurable list of patient entry forms while working online or offline. Additional features including PIN log in, prehospital patient notifications, and bi-directional communication with destination facilities that use EMResource or EMTrack are also available.
