Brigid – TPP’s Clinician App
Brigid is TPP’s clinician app, fully integrated with SystmOne to put key information and functionality at clinicians’ fingertips. The app, developed alongside clinicians, continues TPP’s work giving staff better understanding of their workload and the needs of their patients. Whether providing easy-to-access patient and task lists, ensuring vital observations are recorded or allowing communications with patients on our patient-facing app, Airmid, Brigid puts key SystmOne functionality directly into the hands of clinicians.
The following page provides an overview of functionality available within the app.

Schedule Observations
- Select and schedule specific observations for individual patients, setting observation frequency for repeat observations
- Utilise SystmOne’s Workflow Support Engine through the app to automatically schedule observations
- Set up automatic reminders for due or overdue observations
Record Observations
- Pre-configure templates and scoring groups
- Easily record into data-entry templates or receive readings from external vital signs monitors
- Score results are automatically calculated
View Observations

- Change to grid view for concise viewing or graph view for a full set of observations at a glance
Escalate Observations
If an observation score is too high, Brigid can automatically escalate the case to those higher up, schedule more observations and include a THINK SEPSIS warning.
Escalation functionality includes:
- Automatic notifications sent to those the case is escalated to
- Easily update escalation details
- Timeout feature – if the escalation is not responded to within a locally-defined time period, it is sent to the next available recipient
