Excellent App if in NHS - Isolates Privates

This is an excellent app if your working for one of the Trusts.

BUT I really feel that only allowing NHS Trust to access this data is both isolating of the raft of private clinical providers that now make up a huge portion of those working pre-hospital.

Both Trust and Private providers should be working off the same protocols for the benefit of the patients we care for.

By not allowing privates access to this information on the Plus app you limit ability to work seamlessly for the good of the patient.

Is there a reason private providers staff canโ€™t access this info ?

Very glitchy

The app continues to be unreliable, often failing to open during critical times, despite clearing the iPhones cache. Please can this be resolved asap.

Difficult to navigate.

Really good app for information if you have the time to sit and search for it. When needing to check dosages or facts while on a job it is a total pain to get information from.
Needs a much clearer way of navigating.

Response from developer

Hello HCPmedic, Thank you very much for your feedback and sorry to hear you find searching for information and navigating the app time consuming. There is an upgrade to JRCALC Plus coming soon and we will be inviting people to trial the updates, which will include an enhanced search functionality. If you would like to get more information about being one of our trialists, please just email us on ContactUs@class.co.uk. In the meantime, if we can help further just let us know.

App freezing

The app in general is good when it works but on a few occasions Iโ€™ve the past few weeks it has failed to load and the screen has went black. This is despite numerous re-downloads. Not what you need when trying to cross check medication dosages.

Hi 1905pauly, sorry to hear you've experienced issues with your app. Please can you contact us at apps@class.co.uk with some details so we can look into this for you?

Great app but needs a little optimisations

This is a great app, especially when paired with an ambulance trust account. Having all trust clinical notices in one place is great, though it would be amazing if we could STAR or Favourite particular notices for quick reference in the future? Could this be implemented?

App also needs a little optimisation in on the iPhone 13 with gaps at the top and bottom but thatโ€™s me being a little OCD. Overall a very useful app.

Thank you kindly for your review of the JRCALC Plus app. I am so sorry to here that you have been having issues with it. We are in the process of creating a how-to video on how to force restart the app, as this may help. The best thing to do for now, if you could, is to send us an email using the Send Feedback button on the app dashboard - this will allow us to work with you to investigate further to find a solution.

Difficult to navigate

This app has all the information thatโ€™s covered in the JRCALC pocket guide and more. Itโ€™s just a pain to navigate through to find what you need. The pocket book is easer to use sadly and so I donโ€™t end up using this very much.

Response from developer

Thanks for your review of the JRCALC Plus app. We're sorry to hear that you are finding it tricky to navigate. If there is anything in particular you think could be improved or made easier to locate, please do contact us at apps@class.co.uk . We are planning some improvements in 2021, whereby you will be able to search within guidelines for keywords - look out for updates to this later this year.

Itโ€™s okay!

Seem to be okay but frustrating the you have it installed on two devices as it dose t seemed linked so have to re do all my book marks and acknowledge clinical notices. Same has good potential this app

Response from developer

Hi Mat, thanks for your feedback. The Plus app does support syncing between devices, however, whether information is stored to be able to do that depends on which organisation you are part of. I would presume that you are part of one of the organisations who have asked us not to externally store details like your acknowledgements, but do get in touch with us at apps@class.co.uk if you'd like to discuss.

Poor

Every time you need it, the app does not load. You then have to delete and then upload the whole app again for it to work again.

Will be buying the pocket book instead!

Hi Izzy, sorry to hear you've experienced issues with your app. Please can you contact us at apps@class.co.uk with some details so we can look into this for you?

Pretty Pleased

Was unsure at first on how to navigate and use the app (EMAS) version. Once I got to grips with it, it is very useful on the road.

I would say the only thing that could do with a rejig is when you look at charts etc they donโ€™t fit on the iPhone X (or at least mines) screen so you miss some writing, which in a time critical situ is not something that helps. But overall, app wise, it is an excellent resource.

Hi Alice, good to hear the app has been helpful to you! Thanks also for bringing up the problem with the images, this is surprising as we code our images to fill 100% of the screen to circumvent any problems with different sized screens. Could you give us a little more detail on which images are affected and maybe send us a screenshot example to apps@class.co.uk so we can look into this? Many thanks, Shanon at Class

JRCALC+ (EMAS)

Iโ€™ve been using this app since it was launched within the Trust and have found it to be a real game changer. Always current, with frequent up dates. Trust Bulletins always to hand, rather than having to search folders or notice boards.

It is so easy to navigate and great for CPD.

I had to contact the developers, once, when I had been told I had missed an App version update. I hadnโ€™t and I was running the latest version, but the team were responsive and helpful.

Thanks for saving my pockets from splitting and for providing me with an extensive reference guide.
