New Features


1.  Multiple Actions Workflow
  • What - Introduced a comprehensive multiple actions workflow that allows users to combine multiple medication events (usage, transfer, remove, count) into a single workflow while maintaining independent documentation for each action in the background. The feature includes a "Complete and Sign Later" function for saving progress and resuming workflows, a centralized Pending Signatures panel on the dashboard, and intelligent validation for count events as workflow terminators.
  • Why - This new feature was developed due to customer request to streamline medication documentation workflows by allowing multiple related actions to be processed together while maintaining individual audit trails, reducing workflow interruptions and improving efficiency during busy shifts when multiple medication activities occur simultaneously.
  • How - Use the multiple actions workflow across different areas:
    • Dashboard Workflows:
      • Start Count from Due Panel - Displays multi-action interface with "Add Actions" disabled
      • Start Usage event - Becomes first event, then add additional actions
      • Count after Usage - Modal displays dropdown of Med Kits from selection, filtering out non-CS kits that don't require counts and are empty
      • Pending Signatures Panel - New centralized view for completing signatures on queued medication actions without leaving dashboard
    • Med Kits and Med Supply Workflows:
      • Start from any event chosen by user to initiate multi-action feature
      • Add actions using "Add Actions" button
      • Count event must be last action performed (terminates workflow)
      • Remove actions using "Remove Action from this Flow" before saving
      • Note: Once saved and actions changed, cannot be deleted or edited
    • Complete and Sign Later:
      • Save progress on completed events during multi-action process
      • Resume from last entered event at convenient time
      • Flexibility for interrupted workflows
    • Sign and Finish:
      • Resume saved multi-action process
      • Complete remaining events
      • Sign all events in the workflow simultaneously
    • Workflow Rules:
      • Applies to: Med Supply, Med Kit NON CS, and Med Kit CS
      • Count event: Cannot add another process after count (seals the flow)
      • Signatures: Completed according to setup configuration
      • Log updates: All actions documented independently in background
  • Use Case - Paramedics responding to a cardiac arrest can document a complete medication workflow in one session: start with a Usage event for epinephrine administration, add a Transfer event for moving naloxone from the drug box to the jump bag, add a Remove event for expired atropine discovered during the call, and finish with a Count event to verify remaining controlled substances - then use "Complete and Sign Later" when dispatch assigns another call, returning after the shift to complete signatures for all documented events through the Pending Signatures panel, maintaining complete audit trails while accommodating the unpredictable nature of emergency response operations.




Enhancements


1.  Med Log Filter Update
  • What - Enhanced the Event name filter in Medical Logs by converting the dropdown component from single-select to multi-select functionality, allowing users to filter logs by multiple event types simultaneously for more flexible and comprehensive log review.
  • Why - This enhancement was implemented due to customer request to improve log filtering capabilities by enabling simultaneous selection of multiple event types, reducing the time needed to review related medication activities and providing more efficient audit and compliance review processes.
  • How - Use the multi-select event filter:
    • Navigate to Medical Logs
    • Locate the Event name filter dropdown
    • Select multiple event types simultaneously from the dropdown
    • Filter displays logs matching any of the selected event types
    • Clear selections to reset filter
    • Apply additional filters in combination with event type selections
  • Use Case - Quality assurance coordinators reviewing medication administration patterns can now select both "Usage" and "Remove" events simultaneously in the log filter to analyze all medication dispensing activities during a specific shift, enabling comprehensive review of medication handling procedures without requiring multiple separate filter operations or manual data compilation.



2.  Update Medications Forms
  • What - Expanded the medication form volume unit options to include milliunit (mU) as a selectable option in the volume unit dropdown. The dropdown displays all units in alphabetical order with mU positioned accordingly for consistent and intuitive selection.
  • Why - This enhancement was implemented due to customer request to support specialized medications measured in milliunits, such as certain hormones and enzymes, ensuring accurate medication documentation and proper dosing information for clinical care and pharmaceutical inventory management.
  • How - Access the milliunit option when adding medication forms:
    • Navigate to Medication Form creation or editing
    • Access the Volume Unit dropdown
    • Units display in alphabetical order
    • Select mU (milliunit) from the available options
    • Complete medication form configuration
    • Save the medication form with mU unit selection
  • Use Case - Pharmacy coordinators adding insulin preparations to the medication formulary can now accurately specify volume units in milliunits (mU) for medications like Humulin R, ensuring proper documentation of insulin concentrations and enabling paramedics to document precise dosing information in patient care reports that matches pharmaceutical labeling standards.


3.  Med Supply in the Mobile App
  • What - Added Med Supply as a selectable option in the Location field for Transfer and Remove events within the mobile application version, providing field personnel with the same medication management capabilities available in the desktop version for these event types.
  • Why - This enhancement was implemented due to customer request to enable complete medication management workflows from mobile devices by including Med Supply locations in transfer and removal operations, supporting field operations where personnel need to document medication movements to and from supply locations while away from station computers.
  • How - Access Med Supply in mobile medication events:
    • Open the mobile application
    • Navigate to medication events
    • Select Transfer or Remove event type
    • Access the Location field dropdown
    • Med Supply option now appears in the list
    • Select Med Supply as source or destination location
    • Complete the event documentation
    • Submit for processing
  • Use Case - Field supervisors restocking ambulances at the station can use their mobile devices to document Transfer events moving medications from Med Supply directly to Medic 5's kit while standing at the supply cabinet, eliminating the need to return to a desktop computer for documentation and ensuring real-time inventory tracking that prevents medication shortages during subsequent emergency responses.




BUG FIXES

1.  Med Kit Due Date Banner
  • What - Corrected the Med Kit due date banner to properly update after scheduled medication counts are performed, automatically removing the current due date banner and displaying the next scheduled count date instead of retaining outdated information.
  • Why - This fix was implemented due to customer request to resolve display issues where the due date banner was not updating after count completion, causing confusion about medication count status and potentially leading to duplicate counts or missed scheduling.
  • How - The banner update occurs automatically:
    • Perform a scheduled medication count
    • Due date banner automatically removes after count completion
    • System displays the date of the next scheduled count
    • No manual refresh required
    • Banner updates reflect current medication count status
  • Use Case - Paramedics completing the monthly medication count for Medic 3 on October 15th will now see the banner automatically update to show "Next Count Due: November 15th" instead of continuing to display the October 15th due date, eliminating confusion about whether the count has been completed and ensuring crews understand when the next count is required.
