Well my friends, here is what I am hearing from my friends at Wayne Township Fire. They went online with Medusa today at 0700 hrs. By 2100, they were being called and told to go back to paper. The problems? Crew members log into the system and show up, but disappear later in the system. Run sheets that disappear then reappear later. Run reports that won't transfer from the first responding unit to the transporting unit, and run sheets that wont fax to the hospital when the patient is dropped off. To top it all off, apparently there are some "dead spots" on the west side near at least one firehouse that the system is lost in.
Wayne is currently running no more than 5 ambulances. What happens when IFD and Wishard go live? We see a lot of problems coming up?
Any problems we haven't heard about yet?

Only the best for IFD. Can't wait for this cluster f*ck to start when we go paperless.
Its already paperless for the fireman they don't write down general patient info anyway
