Helping the UK stay healthy on a shrinking budget. It’s the major challenge facing health and social care organisations. Managers are looking for a way to cut costs, be more efficient and deliver better services. And digital transformation is the remedy.
That’s the case for the London Borough of Islington. We’ve developed a secure, electronic system that pulls together data from all the different care providers into one place. It allows the borough’s 10,000 health and social care professionals to access integrated care records online and get detailed information about their patients’ medical consultations and care programmes. Having 100% visibility is helping Islington’s clinicians to improve the level of care provided.
Helping your staff connect is the key to digital transformation. Technology can give them instant access to any application on any device, from anywhere. Mobile setups can help community nurses reduce paperwork by 60%, and increase face time with patients by 29%.
The Mid Yorkshire NHS Trust works with us to help its community healthcare workers access the data they need and fill in reports on the go. The result? More time with patients and less time doing admin.
When it comes to digital transformation, you want your organisation to lead from the front. That’s where we come in. With Intelligent Connectivity, we’ll make it easy for your staff to connect with patients and colleagues. Quickly, reliably and securely. Plus, it’s smart. But isn’t intelligent the same as smart? We don’t think so.
