This page is intended to assist organisations in implementing the roll out of PKB, facilitating the adoption of the new service model with a specific emphasis on digital care pathways for patients and staff. Additionally, it addresses establishing a comprehensive record for each patient, granting them access to data, care plans, and the capability to communicate with their hospital teams.

...

PKB allows patients to input their own data that can help inform the pathways a patient is on and, in turn, empowers patients to take greater ownership of their care.  It can be accessed by patients and professionals anywhere and at any time, allowing for digital interaction to occur early on and at key points in a patient’s journey.

What’s involved in an Organisation-level Go Live

...

• Create all patient records in the PRT (Patient Record Team) (via HL7)

  • The PRT is where all patient's records are created and is set up to have no access to patient data by default . This means professionals in the Org cannot see any data in a patient's PKB record until the patient is added to the speciality team.

• Turn on data feeds (via HL7).  Patient records start to get data from the organisation's integration with PKB ready for when they  register 

• Comms sent to patients and staff, including details on how to register, features and data included

• Record benefits and Goals, including pre-go live metrics

• Links and files added to the Org’s Central Library 

• Central care plan and questionnaires added to the PRT

• Trust /organisation welcome message added

• Invite professionals 

• Turn on universal messaging for admin teams

• Invite patients to register
