Background of the project

The Emergency Department is one of the most critical areas of a hospital and one of the first to be affected by the indiscriminate arrival of users. Despite the efforts made in recent years to define a model of emergency care, the emergency department continues to be a priority challenge where there are opportunities for improvement.

It is the patients of less severity that act as a bottleneck since they are very numerous and their urgency is very slight. The Consorci Sanitari parc Taulí is creating an Advanced Resolution Assistance Unit (ARA Unit), which is equipped with a process that is different from the usual flow of patients, aims to respond to the needs of users by making more decisive use of the care model. The new model of patient care must be based on the empowerment of the autonomous role of nursing with the help of protocols and necessary medical supervision.

The objective of the ARA unit is to decongest the emergencies by means of the resolution of the less severe cases by a group of specialized nurses and with an ARA System that supports their decisions at a clinical level. This ARA system is what is procured in this tender.
