Shared Care Planning Tool – Orion Visit for Solutions Workshop

by Jambavati McQuhae / Thursday, 12 October 2017 / Published in News, Orion

On Wednesday August 30th, Integrated Care hosted an all-day Orion workshop.

The Northern NSW team comprising a local GP, LHD clinician and LHD project team met with 7 Orion people from Melbourne, Sydney and Auckland.

The focus of the day was making Orion easier to use, and improving clinical safety and quality.

We focussed on:

– Building the capability to let GPs upload an existing care plan from their system to Orion

– Fixing the current issues with medications

– Allowing GPs to upload procedures to Orion

– Some small technical and user experience improvements

Our priority for rolling out these fixes is as follows:

  1. Medications
  2. Procedures
  3. Upload
  4. Everything else

Orion have provided some rough timelines on these issues, and we hope to have some more definite dates soon.

After these things are finished, we will re-engage with GPs to “relaunch” Orion.

If you have any questions about the Orion project, contact Tim Marsh on 02 6620 0829 or from here (https://integratedcare.nnswlhd.health.nsw.gov.au/orion/help/).
