Product Overview

Residency Programs

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.
