The Critical Care and Medicine Database has data collectors at all [[Site and Location table|sites]] where we operate. | |||
Our collectors are all Critical Care trained nurses, allowing them to interpret the information they find from a medical point of view. | |||
They work on the wards/units several times a week, generally while the patient is still admitted, allowing them to ask questions of ward/unit staff when the contents of the charts are not clear. | |||
The clinical training and presence at the point of patient care help our collectors gather data that is of higher quality than what would be available from a purely administrative data set like the Discharge Abstract Data ([[DAD]]). | |||
