2 Objectives Brief background: Goal of NEW Regional Trauma Advisory Council (RTAC) for injury prevention Goal of Brown County Prevention Coalition specific to falls prevention Background that led to development of electronic application for EMS to refer a faller to community services Overview of the application and how it works Pilot and Implementation results with Green Bay Metro Fire Department (GBMETROFD) What s next - future plans Q&A
3 Brief Background on What is RTAC A Regional Trauma Advisory Council (RTAC) is an organized group of health care entities and others who are interested in organizing and improving trauma care in a specified region of Wisconsin. The purpose of an RTAC is to develop, implement, and monitor a regional trauma system plan to facilitate trauma system networking within a region. RTAC membership may include, but is not limited to, hospitals, physicians, nurses, Emergency Medical Service (EMS) providers and their medical directors, rehabilitation facilities, communications centers, injury prevention organizations, and community groups. RTACs collaborate with the State Trauma Advisory Council (STAC), the Department of Health Services Injury Prevention Program, and all other entities involved with, and affected by, injury.
4 NEW RTAC Injury Prevention The North East Wisconsin (NEW)RTAC focus is on injury prevention, reducing the severity of injuries, and decreasing the number of deaths. Our objective is to optimize the quality of care and outcomes for all trauma patients. The patient is the focus of this organization. We also believe that education of trauma providers on all levels is essential. NEW RTAC Region 3 includes 7 counties: Brown, Door, Florence, Kewaunee, Manitowoc, Marinette, Oconto Falls make up the highest % of trauma cases in Region 3
