Who writes/types the PCR EMT or Paramedic in your agency?

[Handsome Robb]

That doesn't make sense to me...like others have said ...the one who techs the call. But in your situation where you all helped...the person in charge (usually transporting medic) will sign the PCR and indicate who did what under the meds given and interventions part.

*At least where I interned (since there were multiple medics on scene) where I work there's only 1 medic so it's a lot more simple.

I guess it just doesn't seem like a good idea to have an EMT complete the chart when he/she did little to no care (unless it was a BLS call, but sounds like it wasn't)

My AEMT writes the majority of the charts on traffic accidents, especially if they're AMAs without a complaint that would indicate a full ALS work up.

I do the BLS calls, my medic does the ALS calls.

I think it's unfair to make a medic do all the paperwork, that's BS.. Yes, it's still paper for us. I know how to read and write, my hands aren't broken.

This.

Where I work whoever techs the call will be writing the ePCR.
