Many Trusts are now benefitting from the recently updated on-line Risk Register. Feedback is overwhelmingly positive “This is the right tool for the job…the configuration has so many options for us…our managers will find this easy to use and we are really pleased with the presentation and logical flow of information”, Head of Risk Assurance, Leicester Partnership NHS Trust. Although only released in January, this new version is now implemented live in 12 Trusts, and as a test system in 9 others.

NRLS dataset version 2, enabling more in-depth analysis of pressure sores and maternity incidents, is being rolled out by Ulysses. In conjunction with the NPSA, we are helping with the small amount of remapping required. Ulysses is the only Risk Management vendor system to achieve compliance against the NPSA dataset version 2.

The lists of Trusts reporting staff assaults to the SMS via Safeguard is growing all the time. Ulysses is the only Risk Management vendor system to achieve SIRS compliance.

The next version of the Safeguard Alerts module is almost complete, with cascading down to multiple layers reflecting the complexity of information flows within organisations.

The next versions of Safeguard Customer Services, Request for Information and Litigation will be released on 18th March with additional functionality for attaching information to emails. The release notes will detail all the functionality provided.

Contact the help desk to find out how you can trigger emails automatically from the system. This development has proved very popular as it reduces the administration time required.
