Improve patient safety, reduce medical errors, enhance staff productivity through the capture patient data including demographics, medical history, allergies, wellness habits, symptoms, prescription orders, clinical procedures and patient outcomes using a controlled medical vocabulary.
Admission / Discharge / Transfer
Ongoing collection of information is essential to the improvement of quality through the continuum of care. The basic process of admitting, discharging, transferring and registering patients has evolved to provide better efficiencies, more accuracy and less redundancy in the process. Enhancements in resource management and medical records enable facilities to streamline the entire patient intake process from pre-registration to admission and transfer to discharge including both inpatient and outpatient.

Positive Patient ID
Positive patient identification is the absolute foundation of patient safety. Systems and tools are a necessity and most studies of barcode technology indicate error rates of less than one in 100,000, and that’s orders of magnitude better than the average human error rate of one to three percent. MoreDirect works with our clients to build flexible, open solutions that can work with the existing architecture, technology and clinical workflow.

Bedside Medication Verification
Safe administration of medications is one example of a complex task that caregivers are expected to do—and do perfectly. The accuracy standard is expressed as “The Five Rights of Medication Safety,” that is, Right Patient, Right Drug, Right Dose, Right Route, Right Time.
Technology can enable caregivers to perform their tasks at levels of effectiveness that are otherwise impossible to achieve, but successful implementation occurs only if it is part of a systematic transformation of the clinical care process.
Computerized Physician Order Entry can introduce a remarkable reduction in the rate of serious medication errors. This prevention is generally attributed to a system of structured orders and medication checks, however to maximize clinician adoption of technology, workflow evaluation and device selection must be taken into consideration.
