Jefferson Torresdale Hospital​

Emergency department (ED) clinicians routinely use clinical calculators and scores to aid in medical decision-making, and these evidence-based tools are built into Jefferson’s electronic health record (EHR). An ED physician, residents, and EHR experts at Jefferson Torresdale Hospital conducted a laborious review of the existent tools and updated clinical scores and assessments. These updates are more user-friendly and help clinicians create patient care plans more quickly and efficiently across 11 Jefferson EDs. ​
