If like us at Heart of England NHS Foundation Trust you have the need for crucial Emergency Department guidelines, flowcharts, and scoring systems to be instantly accessible but are unable to find them quick enough, this is an app that will help. The Emergency Medicine Application (eMapp) is the idea of Emergency Medicine Consultant, Dr Mustafa Sajeel from Heart of England NHS Foundation Trust (HEFT). It is an electronic resource designed for use at the bedside by registered practitioners working with patients. It contains key information, flowcharts and tables designed to help practitioners to deliver safe, reliable evidence based care at the point of care. The App contains essential information extracted from HEFT and national policies and Guidelines. Content is based on top safety issues and frequently used policies and guidelines in the HEFT Emergency/Acute Care Units. The following changes have been made to the eMapp.
• Several new guidelines have been added or reviewed
• Better organisation of the app guidelines and contents
• A new user interface for easy navigation
• Search option to make it easy to look for relevant documents
• Favourites section to add frequently used guidelines and scores
• Easier to give feedback to the eMapp team via an online form or email
• Option to print the documents using AirPrint

• Option to view the emappNHS twitter feed so you can keep up to date with the latest news in Emergency Medicine
