Feature Enhancement
Field Relocation for ePCR Forms
- What - Administrators can now customize the placement of fields within the ePCR (Electronic Patient Care Report) form, allowing fields to be reordered within subsections or moved across different sections. This enhancement provides greater control over form layout, enabling agencies to tailor documentation screens to better match operational workflows and improve overall usability.
- Why - EMS agencies often follow varied documentation workflows, and a fixed ePCR layout can create inefficiencies and slow down data entry. This improvement introduces flexibility so agencies can align the system with real-world processes, reduce time spent searching for fields, and improve accuracy and user adoption while still maintaining compliance with reporting requirements.
- How
- Navigate to Module Stack → Incident Documentation → EMS Setup → ePCR Sections
- Select a section (e.g., Response, Assessment) and expand subsections
- Click the Eyeball icon to view available fields
- To reorder fields:
- Click and drag a field to the desired position (changes save automatically)
- To move a field to another section:
- Click the Pencil (Edit) icon
- Select the desired Section and Subsection
- Click Save
- Drag and drop the field to reposition if needed
- To use custom sections:
- Ensure the custom section is activated before editing fields
- To locate fields:
- Use EMS Setup → Workflows search or Field Customization search to view breadcrumb paths
- Note: Fields moved to a new section will appear at the bottom by default and can be repositioned as needed
- Use Case - An agency restructures its ePCR so that vital signs, medications, and assessments are grouped in the order crews typically document during a call. By placing frequently used fields at the top of sections and aligning layouts with real-world workflows, crews can complete reports faster, reduce errors, and spend less time navigating the form during high-pressure situations.
