The Clinical Pathology Laboratory in the Purdue University Veterinary Hospital implemented Orchard Software’s laboratory information management system (LIMS) and outreach solutions in 2010 and has successfully used the system to make their jobs easier by automating and error-proofing their workflow.
Orchard Software’s solutions can address the advanced IT needs of a diverse testing menu and eliminate many of the concerns public health laboratories (PHLs) face regarding electronic lab reporting. Offering complete laboratory system integration, decision-support rule capabilities, configurable analytics, and case management tools, Orchard’s systems allow PHLs to efficiently track clinical and environmental test data, respond to public health emergencies, and capture key performance analytics.
Installing a new LIS is an exciting yet stressful, undertaking. Every step of your laboratory’s workflow is impacted. It is wise to carefully think through all the implementation steps and make sure you are properly prepared before a new LIS installation.
