Kia ora koutou
Does anyone have a template aside from a basic spreadsheet, for simply mapping out which clinical teams use which clinical systems? I’m not looking for complex plans on service roll outs. Just a simple plan so we can quickly work out who’s who in the clinical IT zoo.
Thanks in advance from @aimedack and I
This may be a good starting point. A littel old but does break down the main flavours of systems that are out there

Thanks @nathanb that’s a helpful start.
Does anyone from @hnz-tewhatuora know if there is an update to this?
It is quite a useful ‘snapshot’ and could be an excellent base for a publicly visible wiki.
@nathanb there isn’t a more recent update to this and I suspect a simple business architecture view will be more useful. I’ll see what the sector architects group have in this space.
Thanks all. What we will be landing is a clinical map of ICT systems used, with clinical risk associated with loss or access to systems and a link to the BCP (business continuity plan).
A simple overview of who’s who and what’s happening across clinical services - a loss of access to a radiology reporting system has, for example, the potential to cause more immediate risk to loss of life or limb than a system in outpatient Speech Therapy.
It could then easily be a simple tool for EOC to use, but also link with the triage work @karenshaw is looking at (Karen will talk at next meeting about progressing both pieces of work regionally if we all agree it’s useful).
I would prefer to keep synergy with any current work in this space rather than creating more silos.
Hi @alex , we don’t have one here but interested in what this could look like. We’ve just been keeping a local spreadsheet for team purposes. Be great to work together on a better option.
Don’t have a template but may have a tool for this task. I’ve found Airtable very useful for this kind of stuff. They call it a cross between a spreadsheet and a database. You can have one table of your clinical teams and one table of of your applications. When you start to link them together, it displays the links in both directions. That is: in your list of clinical teams, you can see which applications each uses. And in your list of applications, you can see which teams use them.
It is a cloud-based service so all the usual caveats and issues there. But their free plan could easily do what you’re asking about. Give me a call if you want to see more on how it works.
@MValentine legend thanks. Always good to catch up so I’ll send you a text!
