RLDatix announced that it has acquired oneSOURCE, a SaaS database that provides online access to updated instructions for use (IFU) and preventative maintenance documentation.
This acquisition further enhances RLDatix’s Applied Safety Intelligence framework by helping healthcare delivery organizations comply with global accreditation standards while ensuring the safe and effective use of medical equipment―a fundamental component of patient safety.
“Proper usage of medical equipment is a critical component of patient safety and compliance,” said Jeff Surges, CEO of RLDatix. “With oneSOURCE, we are further catalyzing Applied Safety Intelligence―the move away from reactive risk management toward proactive prevention―while deepening our enterprise compliance capabilities that help our customers more effectively align with The Joint Commission and other global accreditors. This acquisition represents the latest chapter in our growth and further cements our position as the global leader in patient safety.”
With oneSOURCE, healthcare delivery organizations can access IFUs and other maintenance documents and retrieve the latest, most up-to-date manufacturer information available, including critical recalls. These databases are the most comprehensive in the industry, with more than 80 percent of U.S. hospitals utilizing them for surgical instruments and equipment; tissues and implants; dental; and facilities maintenance. At the end of August, a new user platform providing better access to more than 250,000 manufacturers’ IFUs and services manuals was released to the market. “
When we founded oneSOURCE more than a decade ago, we sought to create the gold standard digital medical and equipment database,” said Jack Speer, cofounder and president of oneSOURCE. “Our latest platform is a testament to that vision and to our commitment of providing the best and most comprehensive solutions for our clients. Now, as we take the next step in our journey, we are joining an organization who is transforming global patient safety. We are thrilled to be a part of the RLDatix family and look forward to what lies ahead.”
