EmPoweR Electronic Patient Record (EPR) is due to go live across the trust sites next month.
An EPR is a digital system that consolidates a patient’s medical information, including notes, forms, and test results, into a single, secure record.
This will completely change the way the trust admits, assesses, treats and discharges patients, modernising and improving the way we deliver patient care.
What does this mean to patients
A smoother patient journey
Information is available electronically across the trust, reducing the need for patients to repeat information and helping colleagues access records more quickly
Better informed care
Clinicians have access to a complete view of the patient’s information in real time, helping them provide safer and more effective care.
More time for patients
By reducing duplication and streamlining administrative processes, EmPoweR helps colleagues spend less time searching for information and time time focusing on patient care.
A more digital trust Moving away from paper records supports faster access to information, improves the flow of information between teams, and contributes to a more sustainable way of working. EmPoweR is a key part of the trust’s digital transformation journey, helping deliver safer, more efficient, and more connected care for patient.
