Unity full dress rehearsal – 3 days to go

February 8, 2019

We are now 3 days away from the full dress rehearsal (FDR) of Unity. Thank you to everyone who is taking part in this important activity.

Be sure to check out this video of Chief Nurse, Paula Gardner talking about the importance of Unity to our organisation and why the FDR is essential to ensure a safe go-live of our electronic patient record.

So what have we been doing to prepare?

  • Working with operational and clinical leads to ensure clinical processes are ready for use within Unity.
  • Created a support team for clinical areas consisting of operational and training colleagues.
  • Ensuring colleagues are able to log on and access Unity.
  • Delivered devices required for FDR.
  • Developing Quick Reference Guides (QRGs) and Standard Operational Procedures (SOPs) to support clinical colleagues on how to use Unity.
  • We have held 6 transcription workshops with 27 colleagues. This means colleagues are able to transcribe medicines from patient paper drug charts into Unity.
  • Over the past three weeks we have held 16 briefing events for colleagues taking part in FDR. The briefings have included:
  • A run through of the agenda during FDR
  • Colleagues roles and responsibilities
  • How to use Unity during FDR
