Discuss the evidence that supports the use of the chosen information management strategy in promoting patient safety.

Evidence that an integrated information strategy can promote patient safety is the healthcare provider’s ability to quickly and accurately access accurate, complete and up-to date patient data. This can improve communication between clinicians and ensure that they have a full understanding of the individual’s health needs.

It can also reduce the number of errors caused by incomplete or out-of-date records, as well as time spent searching for relevant medical information or history. A centralized system can also help clinicians monitor the patient’s progress so that they can detect potential issues earlier. A central system streamlines processes like billing and schedules, resulting in improved efficiency for the entire healthcare organization.
