Why a quality management system?

When purchasing a quality management system, it is important to understand why the organisation needs such a system.

Most health and welfare institutions have designed processes to guarantee and improve quality and safety. However, in many organisations responsibility is divided between different parts ofthe organisation; between different departments; between different staff members.

When responsibility is divided between different parts of the organisation, the organisation has an insufficient clear view of where the risks lie. A digital quality management system provides the tools to identify the risks within the institution and to address them in a holistic manner.

Activities are managed centrally, so the organisation knows what actions are taken, when, and by whom.

Collecting data for your healthcare organization’s quality and risk management programs isn’t just necessary for patient safety and compliance—it’s also the right thing to do to foster the delivery of better care by using staff input. There are many ways to collect the information that’s vital for quality improvement and risk management. Incident reports, complaints/compliments forms, and satisfaction surveys are just a few of the data collection tools that have proven successful in healthcare organizations of all types and sizes.

The traditional way of approaching third-party cyber risk management (TPCRM) is outdated and full of inefficiencies and missed opportunities that leave organizations vulnerable to cyber risk.

But that doesn’t have to be the case.
