The challenges

Fragmented Data Slow Down Patient Care

Silver Hill Hospital was grappling with an outdated system for managing patient data. The institution relied on multiple legacy systems, which resulted in scattered data and considerable confusion among staff. This fragmentation led to an enormous amount of manual effort to review data entries, hampering the overall workflow.

Employees had a hard time tracking patients' treatment histories, hospital capacity, and equipment usage due to the disjointed data. These inefficiencies not only slowed down operations but also compromised the quality of care provided to the patients. The hospital urgently needed a new data management system to alleviate these issues.

The solution

Salesforce Solution Brings All Patient Data into One Place

To tackle these challenges, Redtag implemented a customized data management system based on Salesforce Health Cloud. Our approach was tailored to meet the specific needs of Silver Hill Hospital, ensuring that all relevant patient data could be tracked seamlessly.

First, we configured a custom data model to suit the hospital's unique requirements. This model integrated all patient data into a single, cohesive hub, making it easier for caregivers to track patient information and treatment histories.

Next, we implemented a custom timeline Lightning web component to monitor key hospital metrics such as the total number of patients, planned duration of stay, and room occupancy rates. This real-time tracking feature allowed staff to manage hospital capacity and resources more effectively.

We also configured a set of Salesforce screen flows to streamline data capturing processes. These flows included a series of questionnaires designed to track patients' treatment histories, disease progression, and exposure factors. Such automation reduced the manual input required from staff, significantly improving data accuracy and efficiency.

Furthermore, we leveraged Salesforce's powerful reporting and dashboarding capabilities to enhance the hospital's reporting initiatives. These tools provided comprehensive insights into various aspects of the hospital's operations, enabling more informed decision-making.

The RESULT

Automation Reduces Errors and Manual Data Entry

The Salesforce implementation at Silver Hill Hospital yielded impressive results. Here are some of the key achievements:

  • Improved Data Quality: The new system drastically reduced the time required for manual data entry, which had previously been done on paper. This automation improved the overall quality and accuracy of patient data.
  • Enhanced Efficiency: The cohesive data hub and real-time tracking features streamlined workflows, allowing staff to focus more on patient care rather than administrative tasks.
  • Better Resource Management: The custom timeline component enabled more effective management of hospital capacity and resources, ensuring optimal usage of rooms and medical equipment.
  • Comprehensive Reporting: The advanced reporting and dashboarding tools provided valuable insights, empowering the institution to make data-driven decisions and improve overall operational efficiency.

By integrating Salesforce Health Cloud into their operations, Silver Hill Hospital successfully overcame its data management challenges, enhancing both efficiency and quality of care.
