UHC / Datix Safety Intelligence
As part of our ongoing commitment to advancing health care quality and improving patient safety, GHS uses the UHC / Datix Safety Intelligence (SI) system for events and complaints.

UHC / Datix Safety Intelligence
Safety Intelligence was developed by the University HealthSystem Consortium (UHC), which is an organization dedicated to helping academic medical centers attain national leadership in health care by achieving excellence in quality, safety, and cost-effectiveness.
SI is a reporting tool that will assist to:Capture information about safety-related incidents or
concernsImprove both communication and collaboration among
patient safety team members

UHC / Datix Safety Intelligence
Using a standard taxonomy, SI captures information involving patients and visitors regarding:
Adverse eventsNear misses or good catchesUnsafe conditionsPatient, family, and visitor complaints
The use of this taxonomy allows events to be categorized and analyzed to identify trends and make improvements.
Staff events will not be reported in this system. Those type of events will continue to be reported on SREO forms.
