PHHS PCP Finder
If you're discharging a patient from Parkland who doesn't currently have a primary care provider, and would like to send them to one of the satellite clinics instead of PCIM, you can use the tool below to determine their assigned clinic based on zip code. Please note that this tool is for eligibility only; obviously, you should use your own judgement when referring patients.

For ischemic CVA the heparin dosing is as follows: no bolus, and 600-1000 units/hr drip (not weight-based). For other indications, use the calculator below.
Heparin indication
(For ACS, strongly consider LMWH instead of unfractionated heparin. Also, if using a IIb/IIIa inhibitor with unfractionated heparin, dose the unfractionated heparin as though the patient has a STEMI.)
