"Ensuring a patient has an optimal experience in hospital and ensuring they do not come to any harm while in hospital are fundamental expectations. Patientrack in NHS Fife has improved the ability to identify any patients who are at risk of acute deterioration and helped improve our management of known risk factors which can lead to patient deterioration. Since its comprehensive roll out to the acute receiving Victoria Hospital in July 2015, the system has seen the recording and communication of over 70,000 sets of patient observations per month. Sharing of this information has ensured that nurses and doctors are able to quickly see and respond with certainty to the patients who are most at risk. Since its launch, we have seen a significant increase in our ability to ensure vital observations are taken accurately and on time for all patients; our ability to make early clinical decisions has improved and our cardiac arrest rate has halved.”
