The healthcare environment has been recognised as a reservoir for organisms and has been identified as associated with the spread of infection.
Therefore, in order to ensure it is safe for patients, staff, visitors and other service users, audits of the patient environment are essential to providing safe effective care.
Medical Audits Estates and Facilities audit software provide real-time, dependable, accurate audit data for NHS, Private and HSE Hospitals.
This audit software then gives your healthcare organisation visibility on the risks and elements that need your attention and provides evidence of the high quality care and services you provide.
Facilities Audit Software designed specifically for Hospitals
Whether your organisation is a private hospital group, an NHS foundation trust or NHS community care team, a HSE hospital or you work with intellectual disabilities the need for audit to evidence compliance with Key Performance Indicators is an essential part of your quality programme.
