Datix

Datix Safety Alerts software has been designed to help you disseminate communications from the
Department of Health’s Central Alerting System (CAS), the Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) and the National Patient Safety Agency (NPSA). You can also use Datix to distribute communications from your own or other organisations, including internal security alerts and NICE guidance.

Broadcast information about medical devices and other safety issues, automatically recording responses and formulating action plans.

Datix helps you to keep staff, partner organisations and GP practices informed about major health incidents such as pandemic flu. In the event of an outbreak, Datix software can manage and monitor the flow of information between healthcare professionals responsible for dealing with the outbreak.

Compliance with standards

Using Datix can help you meet the requirements of the Care Quality Commission and the NHSLA, as your organisation can use Datix to demonstrate that it has systems in place to monitor overall compliance with the relevant policy documents.

Tracking equipment alerts

Datix Safety Alerts software allows you to record the items of equipment that are in use at your organisation and where they are located. This means you can instantly see whether an alert about a medical device applies to you and which departments or people the alert should be sent to.

Reporting to the Board

Reporting to the Board is simple as Datix generates a wide range of reports quickly and easily. Information from Datix can also be made available on the Trust’s Intranet, allowing managers to view progress and action plans for alerts. Comprehensive security ensures that only those people who need to view the information have access to it.
