We have a trauma pack pre-made for when the patient arrives. All the
paperwork comes in a manilla envelope. When EMS comes in, they hand their
run sheet to the trauma nurse and it goes in the manilla envelope. When
she transports the patient to another area, all her paperwork goes in the manilla envelope. This has really been a great system and we have not lost
any paperwork yet (knock on wood).

In our hospital some of the pre-hospital paperwork is making it
into the resuscitation room but is not getting finding its way to the patients
chart on the floor/unit. I am trying to improve the percentage of pre-hospital
paperwork that makes it with the patient to the floor/unit when the patient is
admitted. Our ER Critical Care Record (trauma resuscitation record) is tri-fold,
so it is a little to big for a clip board. Does anyone have any
suggestions?
