Benefits

What your quality and safety team gains on day one.

Near-miss and incident capture

Any staff member submits an incident or near-miss report in under 2 minutes from any device; anonymous reporting is available to encourage a just-culture environment.

Root-cause analysis tools

Structured RCA with fishbone diagram, 5-Why and fault-tree analysis tools are built into the workflow; findings are linked directly to corrective action tasks.

CAPA tracking

Corrective and preventive action tasks are assigned to named owners with due dates; escalation fires automatically for overdue actions; closure requires evidence upload and supervisor sign-off.

Patient safety dashboard

Near-miss rate, sentinel events, time-to-close and repeat-incident rate visible to quality and risk management without waiting for a weekly summary email.

Accreditation-ready reporting

One-click report packs for JCI, CBAHI and MOH submissions; all incidents are classified to WHO international adverse event taxonomy and NCC MERP medication error scale.

Sentinel event escalation

Severity 1 incidents trigger immediate notification to the quality officer, CMO and CEO; escalation rules, notification recipients and response timelines are configured per incident type.

Part of metaSOFT HMS

Incident Management is one of 20+ integrated modules on the metaSOFT HMS platform — one database, one patient record, one source of truth.

The Incident Management module is fully integrated with clinical data in the HMS. When a medication error incident is reported, the system automatically pulls the patient's medication administration record and the dispensing log into the investigation workspace — investigators do not request reports from pharmacy; they see the data directly. When an equipment failure is reported, the asset register entry from the Fixed Assets module is attached to the incident record.

For accreditation bodies and regulators, the module generates submission-ready report files with all required data fields pre-populated. JCI Required Organisation Practices, CBAHI Hospital Standards and MOH adverse event reporting requirements are mapped to incident types in the system — so every completed incident record automatically satisfies the documentation requirement for the applicable standard.
