ED Muskoka Physicians - Living the Dream

Huntsville ER

Anyone upset if the fixed mount computer in the trauma room is removed as this has been suggested by nursing leadership?

Never gets used, taking up space and hope to use elsewhere!

A WOW gets pulled in whenever needed and is preferable to the nurses.

Just asking before pulled.

SMMH er shifts

Hi all,

Please send me an email confirming what shifts you picked up in July that qualified for the incentive . I need confirmation from each of you this applies too to try and get pay aug 15th from hospital and to let Liz Coombs know.

ALSO – last two shifts not covered in august in SMMH aug 25th and aug 26th nights!! If night doesn’t worked for you then we can try and swap things around!! Both qualify for the $500 incentive per shift too of coarse!!

I have talked to many, many locus about these and no luck so far…

ectas

If you have a concern with a etas level then please send the mrn, initials and visit day to carmen.shakespeare@mahc.ca or scan the facesheet to her . She has taken Leslie Secords role and is actively looking at how we can use/modify/educate around ectas to make cats levels more in line with what is practical for the patient.

The nurses or us can send information to Carmen so please don’t just complain about the ctas levels try and do something about it.

Open Shifts SMMH

For regular shifts ( day, evening, nights) that are still open in July and August there is now a $500 incentive per shift available ( $400 from hospital and $100 from group). This is not available currently for the 13-19 shift.

Please let me know what you pick up of these shifts and we can log this to ensure you get paid.

Critical results communication ( DI)

I added the document outlining the communication of critical results into media if you are interested. The latest revision was adding DVT.

ISITE comments

Please put your interpretation for every diagnostic test that you interpret without a radiology report in isite. Its a pivotal way to trigger our critical result pathway if you miss something on a x-ray, ct or misinterpret an ultrasound tech report .

I recently misinterpreted an ultrasound tech report so please put your comments in for ultrasounds too!

locum seeking shifts

Hi all, If you re interested in giving shifts aug 16-22 or aug 5-8 inclusive let me know asap at either hospital . If I can string together shifts a locum will come up. Maybe this will let you pick up another open shift??hint hint!

Tuesday mock

If anyone is free roughly 1 – 3pm or so on this coming Tuesday.  We have a mock event on Tuesday in Bracebridge. Any ED doc that is interested in this please text me or call me and I can give details! Keep confidential please.
