More than 5,000 healthcare professionals will be trained to use Bru-HIMS to improve the quality and efficiency of healthcare services throughout the continuum of patient care.“The new system will enable healthcare staff to retrieve patients' records through a database without manual searching, and doctors will be able to access patients' medical information and history from their computer and order prescriptions through their computer. This eliminates the use of paper pushing in the hospital and thus will help to reduce patients' waiting time. Doctors can enter and retrieve patients' medical information regardless of locations within the public health system because the data is stored at one place in an integrated system.” Pg Hjh Saadiah binti Pengiran Muda Hj Hashim, Acting Director of Health Technology Department at the Ministry of Health.
“The wide implementation of our Brunei Healthcare Information and Management System (Bru-HIMS) this year will also mark another milestone that will transform our healthcare system particularly enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of our services.” Pehin Orang Kaya Johan Pahlawan Dato Seri Setia Awg Hj Adanan, Minister of Health.
The completion of Bru-HIMS rollout to all four district hospitals, health centres and clinics across the country will see every patient in Brunei with a single electronic health record, making the “One Patient, One Record” journey a reality.
