Complementing the growing healthcare investments in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Nursing Information System is being installed at the King Fahad Medical City (KFMC) by CompuGroup Medical (CGM) – one of the leading e-Health companies in the world – to provide full automation of all nursing forms. CGM CNG Nursing Information System has been designed to collect, store, process, retrieve, display and communicate timely information needed in nursing practice and administration education, while providing easy access to a patient’s electronic medical records (EMR) including patient previous encounters, signs and symptoms, diagnosis, clinical evaluations, medications and procedures and results like laboratory, according to Saudi Gazette.
Conforming to standardized coding systems NANDA, NIC and NOC, CGM CNG Nursing Information System also makes it possible to log to the nurse work-list all action/instruction requested by the physician. Moreover, it provides easy access to previous care plans to help in the creation of a new care plan. Thomas Reitmayr, Vice President Business Development of CGM CEE, said: “The Saudi Government continues to strengthen the Kingdom’s healthcare infrastructure by investing in state-of-the-art technologies and expertise. CompuGroup Medical is strongly positioned to provide strategic support for the government to realize its healthcare objectives and ultimately cope with the evolving healthcare needs of the Kingdom’s fast expanding population. The implementation of the CGM CNG Nursing Information System at King Fahad Medical City is an excellent example of our successful collaboration with Saudi Government to introduce innovative solutions that add value to the country’s healthcare system. CompuGroup Medical will continue to focus on delivering value-driven solutions for KSA’s healthcare sector, which remains a key component in our continuing growth and success in the Middle East market.”
