Point of Care Data Capture Systems

Delivering safe and efficient patient care depends on having the right information available at the right time to make the right decisions. High-quality data records are therefore the foundation of good clinical care delivery.

Arden & GEM has designed, developed and deployed point of care data systems which capture timely and accurate information.

Effective data capture systems provide clinical staff with the information they need to support decision-making at the point of care and provide health and care systems with a consolidated understanding of how their service is performing in terms of quality, cost or outcomes. This can include capturing data from disparate systems, services or locations and flowing it to one central place and providing ongoing data management services to deliver the necessary data sets.

Our methodology for delivering point of care data capture systems can be applied to any part of the health and care system and any data collection. It includes:

• Business and process mapping of data capture requirements
• Specification and build of point of care data capture system
• User acceptance testing
• Data capture and outputs
• Help desk support
• Platform and application assurance
• IG support
• Data testing and assurance service.

Through accurate and timely data capture we can increase knowledge of health and care quality, spend and outcomes to inform better decision-making on the allocation of resources, improvement of services and by clinicians at the point of care.
