how much time do you spend on PCR documentation?
hi everyone! a couple of friends and I are building a tool called SceneSafe, and we'd love honest feedback from people actually working in EMS.
we're EMTs from Chicago who got frustrated with spending so much time documenting after calls, especially after long shifts when narratives become repetitive and details are harder to remember accurately. we're developing an AI-powered documentation assistant that listens during patient encounters and helps generate PCR narratives and organize information like interventions, SAMPLE/OPQRST findings, and vitals trends. the goal is to reduce documentation burden while keeping providers in control of the final report.
a few questions for those currently working in EMS:
- how much time do you spend on documentation during a typical shift?
- what's your biggest frustration with your current PCR workflow (ESO, ImageTrend, Traumasoft, etc.)?
- have you tried any AI documentation tools? if so, what worked and what didn't?
brutal honesty is welcome.
thanks in advance!
