LWH Guide app for iPhone and iPad

The LWH Guide is a new app to improve induction and support for Obs and Gynae Trainees at Liverpool Womens Hospital.

Clinical Session Log
Designed to help you to track your clinical experiences and provide reminders for the e-portfolio. The information you collect is for your own use only. It is not collected or compared centrally.

Session log sends data out in a spreadsheet format ‘Session log.csv’. You can copy the data into your copy of the Session Analysis spreadsheet available on the Obs & Gynae Doctors intranet site to help you monitor your clinical experience. You should keep the data in the app to a minimum and send it out at least weekly.
DATA WITHIN THE SESSION LOG IS NOT SECURE, EITHER WITHIN THE APP OR AS IT IS SENT OUT SO DO NOT STORE OR SEND PATIENT IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION.

Clinical Guidelines:
Relevant quick reference versions are available on the App. Full guidelines are available on the ‘CLINICAL GUIDELINES’ intranet site.

Handbook
Practical information including summaries of the IT handbooks, standard operating procedures and referral criteria. The handbook is also available in pdf format on the Obs & Gynae Doctors intranet site

Forms:
The medical equipment competency forms can be completed within the app and sent to LWH Guide automatically by email. Completing and sending the form is regarded by the Trust as the equivalent of completing the paper version.

Evaluation:
We welcome your feedback and suggestions as updates will be issued throughout the year.
