How Paramedic works in SkillScorer
Score
Each clinician in a ward is scored on the Paramedic skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank clinicians, compare two side by side, or compare your wards against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Paramedic skills need attention. Reports also follow each senior clinician's ward.
Paramedic scorecard: common questions
What skills does the Paramedic scorecard include?
SkillScorer's Paramedic scorecard covers 13 skills: Patient Assessment, Clinical Procedures, Decision Making, Communication, Documentation, Safety & Risk, Teamwork, Airway Management, Cardiac Care and Resuscitation, Trauma Management, Medication Administration, Scene Safety and Management and Patient Handover. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.
How are clinicians scored in Paramedic?
Every clinician is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one ward and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with Paramedic?
Paramedic starts with these levels (called “Band” in the app): Student Paramedic, Intern Paramedic, Paramedic, Senior Paramedic, Intensive Care Paramedic and Team Manager. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the Paramedic skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In healthcare the app talks about clinicians, wards and senior clinicians, and you can change any of those words too.
