Change Management

CLINICAL & BUSINESS PROCESS MANAGEMENT

Clinical processes are at the heart of clinical governance and continuous improvement and are directly affected by the implementation of Clinical Information Systems.  Business processes are about the cost-effective delivery of services and the efficient use of resources.  Managing processes is a critical component in the management of a healthcare organization and enables your organization to adopt change and continuous improvement.

Throughout a Clinical Information System implementation program it is important that change processes are well managed.  At every stage you need to ensure that all clinical and business processes are:

  • Validated and authorized
  • Consistent
  • Integrated with job roles and departmental accountability
  • Visible to all stakeholders
  • Presented in a format that is usable by staff
  • Communicated to staff through training and other methods
