RESPOND Arrivals is the quickest and most accurate way to track team arrivals. Upon responding to a trauma, team members simply wave their badge by the RESPOND Arrivals station and their presence is automatically recorded. RESPOND knows when they arrive, their role, and even their required time and compares it to their expected response time based on ACS requirements or your trauma management team's set policies. You can even set different response times for different levels and types of traumas.

RESPOND Review allows you to have all the tools necessary to help guide your team towards performance improvement.
RESPOND Review records everything that is done and said during a trauma activation, allowing you to review how your team interacts. It records the patient's vitals via an interface with your existing telemetry monitoring system so you can see how your team reacts to the changing condition of the patient. Then, when reviewing the activation with your team, RESPOND Review brings together the video, audio, patient vitals, your team's response time, and your clinical event goals, all on one screen. This allows you to have all the tools necessary to help guide your team towards performance improvement.

Scribe
We understand that the fast-paced nature of trauma resuscitation won't allow for traditional EHR reporting.
Ii is now possible to electronically document a trauma case. With RESPOND Scribe, we've developed a ground-breaking touch-entry system that allows you to input quickly and efficiently into the RESPOND flow sheet. This flow sheet allows your trauma scribe to transfer seamlessly to the new system.
