Introduction

This Clinical Risk Management System (CRMS) outlines the processes to be followed to ensure that all healthcare IT used to support care withinthe Organisation is developed, implemented and used in a safe manner.

This CRMS provides a framework that promotes the effective risk management, by the Organisation, of potential health IT hazards andoperational incidents.

This CRMS complements existing risk management processes that should be defined in the Royal College Digital Growth Charts Team's Risk Management Strategy and wherever practical, uses existing procedures, processes and governance arrangements.

This CRMS addresses the requirements of DCB0129 and DCB0160 and follows best practice in clinical safety, development practice, security, and transparency.

This CRMS will be reviewed and maintained in accordance with the the Royal College Digital Growth Charts Team's policies.
