Deployment of LIMS across One Dorset Pathology network
The One Dorset Pathology network is up and running with its new CliniSys laboratory information system following a big-bang go-live at all three of its laboratories.
The WinPath Enterprise implementation included the first deployment of the CliniSys Specimen Processing module, a cloud-based system that can be used to track tissue samples and slides through the testing process.
The One Dorset deployment approach will now be used as the model for a wider roll-out to Southern Counties Pathology, which serves six neighbouring trusts in the south of England.
Stephen Harding, head of service at One Dorset Pathology, paid tribute to staff who worked with CliniSys to configure the LIMS for the network while coping with the demands of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Despite the challenge of remote working, the project team was able to establish a strong collaborative approach using video collaboration software and ran more than 3000 test scripts ahead of the go-live at 9.30 am on Tuesday, 17 August.
“We want to say a big ‘thank you’ to everybody who was involved in this project, because they really went above and beyond,” Harding said. “It was a big job that had to be done in addition to the day job while dealing with COVID-19; but it meant the go-live went really well. Now, we are in a better position to support each other as a network and to keep delivering the great service that we want for clinicians and patients.”
