Digitising the on-call medical team's patient list system: a QIP by Fahad-Bin Zahid

“…Feedback was collected after each cycle to address challenges and refine functionality, including: • Removal of unnecessary columns • Removal of the ‘low-priority’ category (eg, falls, social issues), because such patients were delayed for extended periods, raising clinical safety concerns; • Improved navigation by fixing headers and introducing alternate row colouring to support dyslexic users1–3; • Enhanced visibility for same-day emergency care department (SDEC) and patients who were post-take; • Created a video guide for staff and clarified the log-in process; • Created a secure folder for archived spreadsheets to improve data storage; • Developed an automatic timestamp for when details were entered.Efficiency gains: • Reduced handover times by 13.5 min (on average) per handover; • 73% of registrars reported improved workflow efficiency; • Features, such as live updates and centralised tracking, minimised information loss and streamlined referral management.Environmental impact: • Eliminated 100% of official paper-based referral list, aligning with NHS sustainability goalsUser satisfaction: • 91% of registrars preferred the electronic system. • 73% rated the system 8–10 for usabilityEquality impact: • The project had no adverse effects on any protected characteristic groups. …”
