SMS is dedicated to helping health professionals reduce their risk of litigation.

We specialise in products and solutions that improve the doctor-patient relationship, reduce the risk of litigation and increase patient satisfaction.

SMS offers two Risk Management products:

1. INFOrm4U
   

2. be INFOrMED
   

INFOrm4U is a library of over 245 patient information documents.

be INFOrMED is a web-based training resource on the medico-legal principles of consent to treatment.

We believe that informed consent should be a process, based on discussion and dialogue - rather than just a signature on a piece of paper.

Patients need to be properly informed so that they can share in the decision-making process. Clinicians need support in order to provide timely and comprehensive information to their patients.

We believe that it is vital for health professionals to have a solid understanding of the current law surrounding consent to treatment and for patients to be informed about their proposed treatment so that valid consent can be obtained.
