Emergency Care Consultants (ECC) started their scribe program in 2006 as the first scribe organization in the Midwest. During the program's lifetime ECC has helped start numerous scribe programs throughout the Midwest. We aim to provide our scribes with the richest opportunity to explore the different areas of medicine before they attend any health professional school. As of today, we have seven emergency departments (ranging from urban to rural), outpatient clinics, and inpatient hospital settings where we staff scribes in the Twin Cities, MN.
