UNIVERSITY MUST STAGE ITS GRADUATIONS ELSEWHERE WHILE IT WAITS FOR NEWS
A FULLY digital patient record system is being rolled out in Plymouth, which is expected to transform the way the health service is delivered, how it operates and how patients get their information.
University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust is transforming from a paper-based hospital with many different systems across departments, to a digital one where all records are stored in one place for access by patients, hospital departments, consultants and GPs.
Patients will just have to log in through an app on their phone or desktop to access the patient portal My Care where they will be able to see the results of their tests, medications and book appointments.
Plymouth City Council's health and adult social care scrutiny panel heard on Wednesday that the new electronic patient record (EPR) system, by American healthcarefocused software company EPIC, had been implemented by the Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust in 2020, and Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust would be coming online at Easter.
