POLST Champion Certificate Program Is Your Organization Ready for the California Statewide POLST Electronic Registry Launch? Since 2009, POLST (Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment) has been the gold standard tool for discussing, documenting, and communicating treatment wishes of persons with serious illness. POLST is a portable medical order set that must be honored across all healthcare settings and transfers. In 2021, the state of California authorized funding to establish a state-wide POLST electronic registry (eRegistry) to facilitate and expedite documentation and retrieval of POLST orders from any location or in the field.
The Coalition for Compassionate Care of California (CCCC), in collaboration with the California Emergency Medical Services Authority (EMSA), has served as steward of the California POLST program since 2009 and, since 2022, as close partners in the development and coming launch of the POLST eRegistry.
This is your opportunity to ensure your team is “Registry Ready” and up to speed on the requirements and benefits of the POLST program.
