The Prescribing module of LINKS CarePath provides the tools to make producing detailed and flexible scripts simple. A host of automatic functionality allows scripts to be created in seconds whilst validation allows the system to prevent against invalid pick-ups and duplicate scripts.
We worked in partnership with large NHS and non-NHS prescribing services to develop a fully compliant and integrated Prescribing Module for LINKS CarePath. The module is currently being used by statutory and non-statutory prescribing teams across the UK and by working in partnership with these services we ensure that the system continues to meet clinical governance.
