Start from the dispatch board

Open Operations → Dispatch. Use priority, status, time, and assigned units to identify the incident that needs attention.

Open the incident details

Confirm the incident identifier, location information available to your role, assignment, and current operational status before taking action.

Review protocol recommendations

When recommendations are available, open the matching protocol and verify its title and published version. A recommendation helps navigation; clinical judgment and department policy still govern care.

Continue into the clinical record

Use the incident’s linked workflows for guided protocol execution and the PCR. Keep the incident open until operational and clinical documentation are complete.

Keep support material free of protected information

These examples use synthetic records. Never capture or send patient information, passwords, API keys, access tokens, or real incident details when asking for help.
