Sharing for GP Practices
Systems for “sharing” come in many forms and provide differing degrees of satisfaction. Simple “folder based” systems are often focussed upon just storing and fetching files. GPTeamNet does that, of course, but we focus on how information is filtered and shared between people and practices in a collaborative community. Like all of GPTeamNet, this is functionality that has been designed in partnership with practices and CCGs.
The heart of GPTeamNet’s approach to sharing is to make the right information available to the right members of your team, with minimal effort and uncluttered with other irrelevant items. Your team needs one place to go for information; whether it’s produced in the practice, provided by your CCG, collected from elsewhere or shared from another practice. They just don’t have the time to look in two or three places and try to work out if they have the most up to date version. For example, a practice nurse can - in one click - list all the protocols directly relevant to them. This single list might contain local protocols, some shared from other practices and (if appropriate) some that are managed and maintained from the CCG.
Sharing within a practice team
Whether or not you choose to share information with other practices, GPTeamNet helps your practice team to find relevant, up to date information quickly and efficiently. This is not limited to files and documents. GPTeamNet applies these principles to diary entries, meetings, contacts and others.
Get straight to information important to you
GPTeamNet knows the roles of each person in your practice. Based on the roles, it presents the most pertinent information for you.
Avoid having to “rummage through” your mailbox to find things
By using GPTeamNet to share announcements, meeting details, documents, contacts and others, you can rely on GPTeamNet to keep the details that you are going to need later. Your email in-box can be used for communication again, instead of a long list of items you might need later.
Highlight items important to your practice
Even when you take account of people’s roles, some documents need to be close at hand, while others can be left for infrequent reference. GPTeamNet allows you to “pin” items that you regularly use in your practice, leaving the rest in the background.
