Hospitals with Emergency Medicine Residency programs have the need to support the education of residents and students while also meeting the needs of faculty.

Wellsoft EDIS supports each hospital in how they would like to handle charting in relation to the attending physician's oversight of the resident.
Robust Risk Management provides prominent and colorful alerts such as medical record flagging, patient care plans, re-evaluation needed, insufficient documentation, re-check vitals, and critical lab values. Clinical documentation templates have required data entry elements related to specific levels of care / service. 90% of all required clinical documentation is contained within the templates and pop-up boxes / menus. Order sets are easy to use and configure.
Sophisticated prompting, inherent in Wellsoft EDIS, helps avoid risks, (reason for study, high risk medications, is the patient pregnant). Wellsoft’s Integrated Medication System also provides a weight-based drug dosing calculator, drug interaction/drug allergy checking, and medication reconciliation. These features provide risk reduction and increased patient safety especially for those in a learning mode.
Wellsoft clients with Emergency Medicine Residency programs have reported that with Wellsoft EDIS, there is improved resident performance and greater attention to detail in much shorter timeframes than they had initially anticipated. As a result, these sites have found that the rapid resident adoption of the system has “raised the bar” for all system users, and ultimately enhanced utilization throughout the department.
Wellsoft Residency Program Features
Overwrite privileges for the attending enable them to add/delete/modify what has been charted by the resident. Entries in the chart show who made the modifications and when.
Security features are used to restrict who can disposition a patient. For example. A resident may chart, but ultimately the attending must review the chart and electronically sign before the disposition is made and the patient instructions and scripts are printed.
Prescriptions can be dropped in by the resident without an e-signature; requiring the attending to review and sign.
Resident-specific templates which guide/limit what each hospital would like to have the resident chart for the patient.
