RIVIAM's Discharge service helps hospital teams speed up a person's discharge from hospital

Hospital ward teams are stretched like never before. They need secure digital services that support efficient ways of working as well as improvements in patient care.

RIVIAM's Discharge service provides ward teams with the ability to refer people in one go to a wide range of community and third sector services.

RIVIAM helps speeds up people's discharge

A Discharge dashboard then provides clear indicators of the status of care being prepared or provided. This gives hospital teams confidence about community and third sector support arranged or delivered for people about to be discharged enabling quicker discharge decisions and freeing up beds.

“We’re delighted our Discharge service will help people leaving hospital access community care more quickly, and, using RIVIAM, health, social care and third sector services will be coordinating care for people more easily and efficiently.

This is a great example of technology improving people’s care and, as a Bath-based organisation, we’re delighted to make a difference to our local community.” Paul Targett, MD, RIVIAM Digital Care

Auto feed of hospital data

RIVIAM can take an auto feed of data from the hospital's EPR to update the Discharge dashboard with the latest information about a person's ward, Estimated Discharge Date and Actual Discharge Date.

This data is then securely shared with community and third sector providers using RIVIAM's Multi-agency Referral Hub and Discharge dashboard. This gives them greater confidence about when to visit a person and how best to co-ordinate care.
