Baker to Vegas: Leveraging Pulsara to Manage a Planned Event
Although they have the advantage of prior awareness and preparation, large-scale planned events pose unique challenges...
“If you have a message you need to get out to 10 people you have to make 10 phone calls. With Pulsara, everyone is on the same page almost instantly as new information becomes available.”
“Communication is there all the time, You don’t have to worry about getting a missed phone call or the ER thinking we’re ready when we're not. The app helps us notify everyone at the same time what’s going on. It alerts us even before the patient’s here. We can get our room and our table ready for the patient. It’s also eliminating multiple phone calls back and forth to doctors and the ER.”
"The Pulsara app has allowed for immediate notification of an incoming stroke patient. This allows me and my team to plan accordingly with staffing the angio suite, etc. ultimately speeding time to treatment."
“With Pulsara, EMS activates [the stroke team via Pulsara] and we have the entire team ready in the ER, we have all the information we need. We just scan the patient and make a decision. We can tell a lot from the app: if they’re an IV tPA candidate or if we can cancel the stroke early, for example, if the patient resolves en-route to the hospital.”
