    I am needing to see if anyone has a matrix they are using for staffing  in-clinic checks as well as in the hospital..  I have reviewed the updated HRS Consensus Statement which focuses on remote monitoring. 

    Thank you-

    Hi there! 

    Great news to share! The CIED Remote Monitoring Clinical Staffing Calculator is an easy-to-use, online calculator you can use to estimate the required number of full-time equivalent (FTE) staff needed for your remote monitoring services based on the number of patients seen in your RM clinic that also takes into account your work environment (i.e., # of hours in a full-time work week and # weeks worked in a year).

     

    The calculator was developed by the authors of 2023 HRS/EHRA/APHRS/LAHRS Expert Consensus Statement on Practical Management of the Remote Device Clinic using the data that supports the recommendations of 3.0 FTE staff per 1,000 patients on RM.

     As promised! I hope this will be helpful to you who have requested this.

    Aileen,

     

    Truly outstanding work!  I took the survey imbedded in e-mail and provide feedback for possible added features to calculator in the future.

     

    AHPs are the backbone of remote monitoring clinics and work.  This tool is long overdue!  Many thanks for all you and colleagues have done.

     

    Regards,

    Huge thank you to the group that developed this.  I plugged in our numbers and it totally validated our staffing model.  Great work, and big kudos to HRS for supporting the AHPs who carry the load for remote monitoring.
