The department is responsible for educating and assisting in working through the company’s policy and in dealing with policy breaches. Data security, quality, and integrity are valued commodities for a business who wishes to continue to prosper and grow, but the improper handling can also easily jeopardize its future (Pratt, 2008). Riordan’s need to consolidate data that has been created offline and potentially could be out-of-date is a data manager idea of a horror story. Through the use of data management solutions that support transactions processing in one location supports a more secure and efficient high-volume business. What also need to be considered are the multinational laws that Riordan had to adhere to because of its global footprint; legal requirements relating to data vary by country. It would be remiss to overlook the security of employees within the company because security falls under the domain of human resources. To take a safer, smarter approach toward personnel security the proposal will also include recommendations for company badges. A badge policy would keep track of employees as they come and go plus alert employees to the presence of a visitor. Monitoring equipment should also be considered as this would be ideal for public gathering places to record any activity after hours by using a motion sensor…

Records management is defined as the systematic life-cycle management of records that includes identification, collection, classification, storage, retrieval, and, eventually, disposition (Records Managment: Buisness Definition, 2010). There are many elements which fall under the management of patient records including but not limiting to; patient data maintenance, identifying, classifying, and storing records, and identifying information requiring capture. Questions six thru twelve of the interview assignment from week four discuss similarities and differences between the circulation, tracking and security measures for records handling and storage within small, medium, and large facilities.…
All sizes of facilities seem to have a few similarities and differences in how a facility handles loose reports. In reviewing our compiled data I noticed that most of the facilities prefer that their loose records are permanently anchored in the patient’s charts. Permanently anchoring files in patients charts can avoid files being misplaced or lost. The way files are organized depends on each facility policies. In the information the most popular form of organization seems to be chronological. While others file by personal information, doctors’ orders, medications, then legal information.…

The similarities that I found for the organizations of patient files are that most of the paper files between the small and medium facilities are handled the same way. With the demographics and administrative filed on the left and medical on the right. Such as reports of labs, patient progress notes, prescription documentation, and any miscellaneous reports. Some of the small and medium facilities seem to use this filing method. This filing works well in a small to medium facility because there are not many files for the staff members to handle on a daily basis. I believe this system would not work with large facilities because the large facilities will need to use a filing system that is beneficial to the facility to keep track of patient’s files.…

The Records Lifecycle and the Continuum Model of Records are similar, they both pass through the current stage, semi current stage and they are both archived.

In the past, 'records management' was sometimes used to refer only to the management of records which were no longer in everyday use but still needed to be kept - 'semi-current' or 'inactive' records, often stored in basements or offsite. More modern usage tends to refer to the entire 'lifecycle' of records - from the point of creation right through until their eventual disposal.…
