Digital Transformation for Theatre Room Productivity
Effective management of hospital rooms is essential. The system’s effectiveness will avoid a shortage and overcrowding of patients in hospitals. THRIVE is a database-driven solution that provides oversight to improve managing hospital patient capacity in the short and long term.
Endoscopy demand is expected to increase. Furthermore, the NHS Operating Framework for 2012/13 proposed a standard would less than 1% of patients will have to wait more than six weeks for diagnostic tests. Because endoscopic diagnostic tests are included in that expectation, it is critical that endoscopy departments and lists run efficiently.
- Easy list management: Managing hospital rooms is done electronically by THRIVE with simple drag-and-drop and Stop/Start options.
- Record management: A database system that replaces paper records with online electronic records that are secure, accurate, reliable, and fast.
- Report Generation: The system creates and delivers real-time information on the state of the hospital's procedures and room capacity.
Why Choose THRIVE?
Scheduling is an important aspect of how an endoscopic unit operates. The way you schedule can be the difference between a well-organised, efficient, and effective department. Good scheduling respects the patient’s time, reduces waste, allows staff time to provide high-quality service, and promotes positive patient outcomes and experiences while also generating revenue for the organisation.
