Health

A major objective of the NHS, and private healthcare is to efficiently improve the use of resources to raise the standard of patient care. A measure to achieve this is to move away from paper-based information by introducing leading-edge technology, making information available at the point of service including theatres, wards, outpatient areas, surgeries and various other sites.

A growing challenge for Public and Private healthcare is the increasing demands of legislative and regulatory compliance such as Clinical and Corporate Governance, Risk management, CNST requirements, Criminal Negligence, Freedom of Information, Data Protection Act, and the control and dissemination of clinical and non-clinical information.

Maxima's solutions are widely used in the healthcare sector to facilitate compliance, and deliver consistency, efficiency and accountability across the organisation. Our proven on-line library allows you to provide large volumes of easily accessible, up-to-date clinical and non-clinical information to staff – and the general public – securely via your intranet or Internet. Working practices will be improved by dispensing with the traditional burden of paper file management processes and using electronic document management.

Some of the document and record types Maxima's solutions manage for our customers include:

• Health and Safety manuals
• Nursing Practice Handbook
• Drug formularies
• Care protocols, NICE Guidelines and practice manuals
• Service Plans
• Laboratory and imaging services
• Patient information leaflets
• Major Accident Procedure
• Standing financial instructions and invoices
• HR forms
• Contracts, maintenance agreements and tenders
• Patient information (including hand written documents)
• Incoming and outgoing letters and e-mails.

Whilst the content of these documents will be spot on, getting people to use them will be another matter. Structured writing plays a key part in enabling people to find the information they need quickly and easily. Maxima's information mapping methodology will ensure that all written material from clinical guidelines to everyday letters and e-mails is composed and presented in a clear, concise and unambiguous style and format.

Our Documentation Services team have comprehensive expertise in writing effective, complete and compliant documentation for the health sector. They can help you update your documents, fill in any information gaps or train your staff how to do it themselves. Our structured writing workshops have enabled many customers match the quality of the content with the speed and accessibility of the delivery mechanism.
