Emergency Medicine (ED) – NHS data standard and CQUIN requirements

USAGE

Emergency Department (ED) software facilitates the tracking and management of patient flow throughout the A&E or urgent care visit, including registration, triage, orders, assessment, medical records, and discharge. The application can be customised to meet evolving CQUIN and NHS standard dataset requirements.

With extensive and critical reporting capabilities, ED software is a key tool in supporting the end-to-end Emergency Department process.

BENEFITS

  • Customisation to support more efficient patient triage

  • Improve security to ensure only relevant tabs and patients are displayed for a specific staff group

  • Order/events rules logic to improve the overall triage and departure process

  • Efficient and accurate recording of documentation, incorporating prompt alerts

  • Reports can be executed by staff to extract key Emergency Medicine information

SCOPE

Depart Process and Discharge Summary
Efficiently manage and document all aspects of patient discharge in one view. This typically includes PowerForms, registration conversations, tracking events and a discharge summary clinical note. The discharge summary can be localised according to the trust’s requirements.

Toolbars and Menus
Assign functions to custom toolbars and display icons.

Security views and Filters
Tracking shell tabs/views can be customised for trust-specific requirements (e.g. location, position, speciality).

Triggers and Rules logic
Automate patient tracking processes when you open a specific registration conversation or a FirstNet action occurs (e.g. opening your default form or setting events/event status).

Orders and Tracking Events
The Emergency Medicine Orders and Tracking Events Integration function combines the processes of placing orders and setting events, allowing you to effectively track the status of a given order.

In the Order Event Association window, you can associate any order activity type, individual orderable item, or care set in your system’s order catalogue with a tracking event. This enables you to view event information at a glance, with clearly ordered columns, icons, colours, and alerts.

Reports
We offer a catalogue of reports developed specifically for the Emergency Department.
