Data is fundamental in ensuring clinicians do what they do best, and that has to pass from one individual to another across a huge hospital system with integrity – always keeping patient safety at its core.
The challenge lies at the intersection of paper and siloes.
Heather Purvis, Director of Clinical Operations, recounts a recent conversation with CGT industry leaders, which uncovered a massive source of pain comes from the fragmented approach of assurance of data integrity for patients served.
Their process for communication around a simple selection of products for a patient and how that information was given to all the parties involved in collection, processing and administration involved a total of SEVEN formats:
1. Emails
2. Pieces of paper
3. Stickers or sticky notes
4. Forms
5. Teams messages
6. Manual spreadsheets
7. Some information from the EMR
Like we said.
Paper.
Siloes.
