Waiting Well Standard Operating Procedure (S115)
This Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) has been developed to set out the expected clinical standards for DCHS and DHCFT by which we manage our access to services for people who are either not yet receiving a service from a specific team or who are awaiting this intervention. There will continue to be a DCHS and DHCFT policy and procedure due to systems and governance and to refer to the relevant one as appropriate. This SOP is to support the safety and well-being of service users (and those around them) who are waiting to access our services.
Requesting and Managing Pathology Results within DCHS Community Hospital Wards SOP (S98)
The purpose of this Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is to outline the steps required to effectively manage the requesting, receiving, filing and actioning of all pathology results by either an electronic process or by a relevant paper-based system. Utilising an electronic system (such as ICE) enables pathology requests to be requested, reviewed and actioned electronically via the electronic patient record within TPP SystmOne. There are an estimated 1.12 billion pathology tests undertaken each year in England (NHS England, 2020) It is imperative a record of all pathology samples is accurately maintained to avoid patient harm and improve patient outcomes (WHO, 2021). The Care Quality Commission (2021) inspects the management of test results to ensure processes are robust, practice is safe and care is effective.
