1 Changing practice to support service delivery Office of the Nursing Services Director
2 Introduction Irish law was amended in May 2007 to give prescriptive authority to nurses and midwives under specific conditions. The legislation allows a registered nurse or midwife who has completed an approved education programme, has the appropriate clinical experience, is registered with An Bord Altranais as a Registered Nurse Prescriber (RNP), and has authority from their health service provider to prescribe a range of medications within their scope of practice. The first Nurse and Midwife Prescribers in Ireland were registered with An Bord Altranais at the end of January The National Resource and Implementation Group on Nurse and Midwife Prescribing, established by the Minister for Health and Children to guide the developments, recognised at an early stage that this major service development would require a standardised approach to monitoring. It was agreed to use a National Nurse and Midwife Prescribing Minimum Dataset to record and monitor the introduction of prescriptive authority for nurses and midwives across the country (see Table). However, it was recognised that many organisations did not have processes to conduct this monitoring, so a system needed to be developed to collect the information. Nurse and Midwife Prescribing The Office of the Nursing Services Director commissioned the development of an IT system to provide a simple, user-friendly, readily accessible way of collecting and reporting the information in a comparable format. Funding was provided by the Health Service Executive and the contract was awarded to the company Client Solutions Limited in early January The system came into operation in early February Purpose of the System To allow each individual nurse and midwife prescriber to report on the number of prescriptions written by them and for what principle clinical indication (prophylaxis, diagnosis or treatment) over the two-year review period. Office of the Nursing Services Director 2
3 Accessing the System Access to the system is at The system is password protected - access is role-based and restricted to the Registered Nurse Prescriber(s), the Prescribing Site Coordinator and the Director of Nursing/Midwifery/Public Health Nursing. For ease of use, registration is self-service and online. New users are requested to summit a registration request form for verification and approval by the system administrator at the Office of the Nursing Services Director. Passwords are system generated, unknown to any other person, and issued when confirmed that the applicant s name is on the Registered Nurse Practitioners Division of the register maintained by An Bord Altranais. Security The system is in compliance with the requirements of the Data Protection Acts. The patient s medical record number (MRN) is used as a unique identifier to count the number of patients treated - the number is encrypted and is not reported outside of the organisation. A privacy statement is incorporated. All information is entered retrospectively and is not linked in any way to individual patients. Patient or clinical information is not recorded in the system. The information input is owned by the organisation where the service is delivered. User Roles For security and access purposes, users are assigned to security roles. These roles govern the functionality available to each individual user, for example: Registered Nurse Prescriber Prescribing Site Coordinator Director of Nursing/Midwifery/Public Health Nursing HSE Prescribing Area Coordinator HSE Prescribing National Coordinator Application Administrator. 3
4 System Description The structure comprises a navigation bar and three simple screens for data input. Input for a prescription item takes less than 30 seconds and involves 13 simple clicks. No new skills are required for the use of the system. Navigation Features New Prescription: the form allows the Registered Nurse Prescriber (RNP) to record the prescription information (minimum dataset). Last Prescription: assists the RNP to identify the last prescription entered to the system. Search Prescription: enables a user to search for saved prescriptions over a time period. The action is dependent on the role of the logged-in user. My Profile: allows users to update their own details and select from a master list of medicinal products the names of drugs they have prescriptive authority to prescribe within their scope of practice. 4
5 Reporting: allows the user to run a suite of standardised reports, for a selected period of time, dependent on the role of the logged-in user. Glossary: leads the user to the standard definitions for the minimum data set and information for all terms used in the system. Resources: will provide access to key support material for RNPs. Alerts: provides for notices to be shared among system users and the Office of the Nursing Services Director. Privacy Statement: leads the user to the detailed statement. Help: provides hints and contact details for the system support team Logout: provides a quick exit from the system. Standardised Reports One of the great advantages of the system is its facility for preparing standard reports and exporting information for further statistical analysis. Report running privileges are role-based, and reports can be accessed by RNPs, Prescribing Site Co-ordinators, Prescribing Area Co-ordinators and Directors of Nursing and Midwifery. System Highlights User friendly Requires minimum time input Offers a structured, standardised approach Uses an intuitive logic and is based on existing skills Requires minimal training Includes an automated password functionality incorporating response for forgotten password RNPs can maintain their own user profile Access via web ensures optimum accessibility and availability of the system. Provides a tool to demonstrate the scope of RNP practice and continuing competence. Allows for immediate availability of standard reports at four levels (RNP, organisation, HSE area and nationally) Incorporates a robust security model. 5
6 Education and Training An education and training manual is provided to all users. An online demonstration system is provided within the system. Online help is available. Staff of the Office of the Nursing Services Director provide the education and training sessions to all Registered Nurse Prescribers and Prescribing Site Coordinators/Directors of Nursing. Table Minimum Dataset: Standard Definitions Data Field Definition 1 Site Name (title) of employer (specific organisation/service) where the nurse/midwife prescriber is employed 2 Personal Identification Personal Identification Number (PIN) issued by An Bord Altranais for each Number (PIN) individual nurse/midwife on the Register of Nurses maintained by the Board.

Each patient is assigned a unit number which is printed on the outside of the healthcare record chart and used as a unique identifier for that patient.
