ePCR Patient Care Records
Clinical-grade patient documentation for fire-based EMS
What is ePCR Patient Care Records?
Fire-based EMS agencies need patient care documentation that works at the pace of emergency response — not a desktop application designed for a billing office. Station Boss ePCR puts assessment tools, medication references, and structured documentation at the fingertips of your crews on any device.
Built-in clinical assessment scales — Glasgow Coma Scale, AVPU, AOx4, MMSE, and Quick5 — let providers document neurological status with standardized scoring. Interactive body diagrams capture injury locations visually. The burn calculator computes total body surface area automatically. Medication and procedure databases reference NEMSIS-standard codes so documentation is complete from the start.
Patient records link directly to the incident, the responding units, and the personnel on scene. When an incident is submitted to NERIS, the associated ePCR data flows with it. No duplicate entry, no reconciliation, no data gaps between operations and EMS.
Key Capabilities
Clinical Assessment Tools
Built-in Glasgow Coma Scale, AVPU, AOx4, MMSE, and Quick5 assessment scales with automatic scoring and documentation.
Interactive Body Diagrams
Tap or draw on body diagrams to document injury locations, wound types, and treatment areas. Visual documentation that supplements narrative notes.
Burn Calculator
Calculate total body surface area (TBSA) for burn patients using the Rule of Nines with age-adjusted charts for pediatric patients.
Medication & Procedure Database
NEMSIS-standard medication and procedure code references built into the documentation workflow. Search, select, and document without memorizing codes.
Incident-Linked Records
ePCR records link directly to the incident, responding units, and personnel. Data flows between operations and EMS documentation without duplicate entry.
Care Transfer Documentation
Document patient handoffs with receiving facility, provider, and condition at transfer. Maintain chain of care documentation for every transport.
Benefits
- ✓
Document at the Speed of Response
Mobile-first interface with tap-based assessment tools lets crews document while on scene rather than hours later at the station.
- ✓
NEMSIS-Compliant from Day One
All codes, fields, and data structures follow NEMSIS standards, eliminating compliance gaps in your EMS reporting.
- ✓
Unified Operations and EMS
One platform for incident operations and patient care eliminates the data silos that plague departments using separate RMS and ePCR systems.
How It Works
- 1
Create PCR from Incident
Start a patient care record directly from the incident. Dispatch data, unit assignments, and timestamps auto-populate.
- 2
Assess and Document
Use clinical assessment tools, body diagrams, and structured fields to document the patient encounter as it happens.
- 3
Record Treatments
Document medications administered, procedures performed, and vitals captured with NEMSIS-coded entries from the built-in database.
- 4
Transfer and Submit
Document the patient handoff and finalize the record. Data flows into NERIS and NEMSIS reporting automatically.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Is Station Boss ePCR NEMSIS-compliant?
- Yes. Medication codes, procedure codes, and data elements follow NEMSIS standards for state and federal EMS reporting.
- Can crews document on a tablet?
- Yes. The ePCR interface is fully responsive and optimized for tablet and mobile use in the field.
- Does ePCR data link to the incident report?
- Yes. Patient care records are linked to the incident, so all data — operations, EMS, and personnel — is connected in one record.
