FH Medic User's Guide for the iPad

FH Medic, a powerful cloud-based, electronic patient care reporting (ePCR) system, is engineered to meet the needs of emergency medical service (EMS) organizations nationwide from large-scale agencies to the smallest, most basic services. FH Medic is gold-compliance certified by the National EMS Information System (NEMSIS). The FH Medic for the iPad User's Guide is designed to help you record crew member, response, and patient data on the incident scene, to generate reports and forms from the data entered, and to send the necessary information to the appropriate individuals and facilities.

Caution: The FH Medic User's Guide documents FH Medic with its default display settings and field labels. If a FH Medic administrator uses the FH Medic administration web site to hide fields or change field labels, not all the fields referenced in this User's Guide may be available to you. Contact your FH Medic administrator about possible changes if you are not able to find fields referenced in the User's Guide.
