Safety Management
Environmental Tours Tracking & Monitoring
To help maintain a safe and effective environment for patients, visitors and employees, healthcare organizations need to conduct periodic environmental tours to determine whether current processes for managing safety are being followed and effective. These tours can help assess staff knowledge and behaviors, identify any emerging risks to the environment, eliminate workarounds, and reveal opportunities for improvement. Results from environmental tour activities can serve as a tool for organizations for improving safety policies and procedures, orientation and education programs, and employee performance.

Patient Tracers
Patient Tracers are used within healthcare organizations as a way to evaluate the organization’s compliance with The Joint Commission standards. One way to analyze an organization’s modules of providing care, treatment, and services, is to use actual patient profiles as the framework for assessing standard compliance. Since no two tracers are the same, Sentact has developed an easy to use Tracer survey using Priority Focus Areas (PFA) to help healthcare organizations report on house-wide tracer compliance and communicate issues to multiple departments or areas.
