Integrated Healthcare hospitals adopt new IT system to enhance patient safety.

System can help preemptively identify gaps in patient safety practices

By Healthcare Facilities Today


Integrated Healthcare Holdings Inc. is adopting a new health IT system that enhances patient safety to proactively deal with life threatening issues and compliance issues before they occur, according to a press release.

Pavisse, developed by RGP Healthcare, a division of Resources Global Professionals, is a new incident management solution designed to help hospitals manage patient safety, patient privacy and other compliance-related functions across the enterprise.

"Pavisse's comprehensive incident management system will help us create a safer environment for patients in our four hospitals," said Dan Brothman, IHHI executive vice president and chief operating officer said in the release. Brothman said Pavisse can help preemptively identify gaps in patient safety practices which will allow IHHI to improve existing procedures to ensure the utmost attention is given to patient care.

Brothman also noted in the release that Pavisse will help IHHI identify and address incidents in real time. 

"We have a responsibility to our patients to promptly resolve any concerns. If we are experiencing problems on the night shift with patient safety on the third floor, Pavisse will alert us to the event, analyze the root cause and allow us to take immediate corrective action with our staff to educate them and fix the problem," he said.
