Electronic Devices (Toughbook’s & Infection Control) Management and Maintainance

Hi Everyone,

I hope someone can provide some direction to this query.

The National Ambulance Service (NAS) will in the coming weeks be in a position to used ruggedized Toughbook’s to begin capturing the first Electronic Health Records (EHR’s).

Although I have undertaken work relating to Infection Control and management of the Panasonic Toughbook’s that will be used in the Pre-Hospital Emergency Care Domain, there is always room for improvement.

I would be grateful f anyone can point me in the direction of any research, publication, policy or guideline that they wish to recommend that will assist me in completing a PPPG that is currently at version 4.

All recommendation are very welcome.

Thank you all in advance.

Hi David,

Have you got any contacts in the UK NHS Ambulance Service Trusts? They have had EHRs deployed for a number of years and may be able to point you to useful information.

Cheers,
