Patient look up functionality 

Patient look up functionality enables patient/services users names and key demographic details to be added to an incident more easily, by pulling in data directly from existing Trust systems. We have produced a user guide that sets out how to use the patient look up functionality. 

This will help reduce duplication for staff recording information on Radar and also help to support consistent data capture and the quality of information added to Radar.  

If you have any issues identified using this new feature or requests for additional support using patient look up should be sent to the incident and risk team via email at incidentandriskteam@merseycare.nhs.uk

Learning from Patient Safety Events (LFPSE)

The additional questions relating to the Learning from Patient Safety Events (LFPSE) are live in Radar. Find out more about LFPSE, including FAQs on YourSpace.

Data quality on Radar

The incident and risk management team can provide guidance and support on the data quality aspects of the Radar incident and risk management reporting system. 

If you have any queries or comments about the quality of the data you are accessing on the Radar system, including to discuss or request training with the team please contact incidentandriskteam@merseycare.nhs.uk.

For all Radar system support needs (i.e. how to use the  system and queries on the reporting form fields) please contact Informatics Merseyside via the resources portal.
