A GRC-centric approach for enhancing management process of IoT-based health institution

Abstract

In hospital emergency wards, tasks are extremely complex to manage and pose serious health risks to patients. Related tasks, which are mainly focused around patient management, are achieved through conventional methods that lead generally to management breakdowns. Consequently, these latters that directly disrupt the patient’s care chain and degrade their quality should be reduced with the exploration of efficient management approaches. In this paper, we will use Governance, Risk and Compliance approach (GRC) coupled with Internet of Things technology (IoT) we will call this new approach tGRC (things GRC). Such approach will provide a set of tools that may effectively address medical staff vital needs and improve the quality of patients’ care. We wish to provide an effective support enabling by the way finer management features of the related tasks, providing an efficient data collection by using sensors and wearable devices and a real time awareness around the occurring events.
