Emergency Physicians of the Rockies

Emergency Physicians of the Rockies (EPR) provide emergency medicine in Northern Colorado. After a period of expansion, EPR needed a digital workplace solution to streamline and enhance communications across their emergency department sites.

Customer background

Founded in 1972, EPR are leaders in providing emergency medical care across Northern Colorado. With seven emergency departments staffed by 70 Emergency Physicians and 35 Advanced Practice Providers, EPR are constantly expanding and evolving to meet their patients’ needs.

Purpose of the system

After a period of expansion in 2013, it became clear that the current methods of communication were not working for EPR. Paperwork moving back and forth via interoffice mailers as well as too many emails meant that key information just wasn’t getting the attention it needed.

Claromentis’ digital workplace and intranet software was the perfect solution for EPR to propel their communications forward. Important departmental information is now posted, organised, and shared on the intranet, with mandatory read processes in place to ensure that staff acknowledge receipt of the information.

EPR have utilised Claromentis’ built-in e-learning software to design a variety of training programs for their staff, including mandatory Mass Casualty Incident drills and a physician sabbatical program designed to encourage wellness and avoid burnout.

Since implementation, the Claromentis intranet is now the go-to place for a wide variety of EPR’s essential day-to-day operations, including access to staff payslips and benefits, real-time trackers, medical records charting system, employees’ medical license information, and human resources handbooks. Productivity is also boosted via online policies, e-forms, expenses reimbursements, individual productivity statistics, timesheet tracking, and financial statistics.

The following applications proved to be critical in meeting EPR’s needs:
