#GMVEMSC: Quarterly Triage Day Oct 1-2 Part 3: Sign Up for OhTrac/RHNS "Lottery"

During Quarterly Triage Day on October 1st and 2nd, we will emphasize use of all MCI Communications Tools. In the past, GDAHA has created the OHTrac incident and the Regional Hospital Notification System message. This time, we’re going to select some of you for those tasks.

In each case (creating the OHTrac incident, and sending out the RHNS message), all it takes is a phone call. We’ll provide you with the “script,” and the phone numbers. You make the call!

We’ll select four or five people for this from anywhere in the region. If you would like to be considered for this, just click the link below and fill out the short form. Again, if you’re selected, we’ll provide all the information you need.

#GMVEMSC: Quarterly Triage Day Oct 1-2, Part 2: Additional Information on OHTrac & App

For those of you who haven’t yet used OHTrac, this email will let you know how to sign up for, and operate OHTrac during an MCI, whether real-world, or an exercise such as the QTD. We hope to have as many people as possible use OHTrac during the Quarterly Triage Day, and enter EVERY ED patient for 24 hours. Below is a link to a brief PowerPoint on OHTrac and how to use it. Here’s how to quickly sign up.

Getting an OHTrac Log-In:

Talk with your agency/hospital to see if they have access and if they have added you as a user. Facility Administrators can add new users to existing facilities.
If your agency doesn’t have access yet, go tohttps://gdaha.surgenet.org and click on Request Access. Each agency should have at least two “facility administrators” who then approve other personnel or apparatus access. Once your Request for Access has been reviewed, you will be contacted by the Regional Hospital Coordinator who will add your agency to OHTrac and associate your user name with that agency.

Downloading the OHTrac App:

Go to the Google Play or App store and Download the free App
- or
Use the log-in provided by your hospital/agency to get access
Once you are in the app, select the correct incident
Click on the Bar Code or “Add Patients” button to begin adding patients using your mobile device
