Checklist for configuring FH Medic administration
When your department purchased FH Medic, someone from the department filled out a form from FIREHOUSE Software, listing the administration site logins needed for the department, the districts the department covered, logins for their medics in the field, the medications they administer, hospitals they transport to, EMT certifications, states, counties, cities, zips codes, counties, and more. This information is sent to the FH Medic Cloud administration team, who set up and pre-populated the department's FH Medic administration web site using this information. The department was then sent the URL and login credentials they needed to access their administration site on the FH Medic Cloud.
While most of the initial configuration is already done for the department, you should review the data that is there and configure some basic tools that your department might need, such as searches that may be frequently used, and filters that determine which incidents the users may see. Other administration tools can be configured later, as the need arises.
Caution: Below is a high-level checklist of the steps an administrator for your department needs to perform to set up the FH Medic administration site on the FH Medic Cloud. Detailed information for the steps below are available in the following pages of the FH Medic Administrator's Guide.
