PROMPT – PROtocol Management & Production Tool 

The PROMPT system is a web-based document management system designed by medical specialists specifically for the Health sector.

What is does : Prompt provides a single point of entry for easy access to any health organisation’s policies and guidelines enabling staff to perform their role in a safe and effective manner.  They can use PROMPT just for their own organisation, or make their policies available to the full PROMPT user network.

Searching on PROMPT : Every user can search their own oganisation, and if given permission, also search across all other user organisations for research, guidance, best practice and general information to value add to their own policies.  PROMPT provides a list based on match strength – if the searched phrase is in the title, this will be at the top, or used multiple times in the body of the document, towards the top or if only once, towards the bottom.

Document Control : Each document is auto-allocated a unique identifier which then has full audit trail of who loaded it, who changed it and when is it due for review.  Users can be given a range of powers from view only to full system control.

Technical set-up : Prompt offers secure, central document storage via internet with access via icons on desktops and an in-built disaster recovery set-up.
