Dutch St Elisabeth Hospital Tilburg chooses Clinical Risk Management System

After an intensive selection process the Dutch hospital St. Elisabeth Hospital in Tilburg has chosen for the Clinical Risk Management System (CRMS) of The Patient Safety Company (TPSC). The TPSC CRMS will replace the current incident registration system.

By means of this software solution the St. Elisabeth Hospital will be able to professionalize and anchor the whole process of incident registration, analysis and the planning, monitoring and measurement of improvement actions within the organization. This approach will lead to an increase in quality and patient safety. The Clinical Risk Management System purchased by the hospital consists of the Reporting Management System (TPSC Notify), the Quality Improvement Tracker (TPSC Improve), and module for analysis, like PRISMA and HFMEA.

The St. Elisabeth Hospital Tilburg is going to use TPSC Notify to register incidents and complaints. Based on the gathered data different in depth analyses can be executed by use of the TPSC Investigate and TPSC Anticipate modules. The hospital will also implement TPSC Improve to deploy improvement measures in a structured way, that will be constantly monitored through indicators.
