About the solution
Ideagen Healthcare Guardian is a patient safety and governance platform. NHS trusts use it to manage incidents, PSIRF investigations, risk, audit, complaints and CQC readiness in one connected system, with certified submission to LFPSE. It has more than 30 integrated apps and dashboards. All the apps share one data layer, so the platform automatically links an incident to the related audit, risk, complaint and earlier events. Its AI features are user-triggered at the point of work: form summarisation, suggested answers, AI-assisted categorisation and recommended prevention actions. The team stays in control of every action. It is built for acute, mental health, community and ambulance trusts, and for ICBs coordinating across them, as well as private healthcare, care homes, clinics and hospices.
