Supporting the sustainability of the NHS: Making a difference beyond the hospital walls
We are pleased to be sponsoring the NYHDIF Annual Conference 2023 in Harrogate on 16-17 November. We will be on hand to support 'Are we sustainable?' and meet informatics and digital health leaders and colleagues across the region.
Sustainability in healthcare extends beyond environmental concerns; it encompasses financial viability and long-term effectiveness. As healthcare demands continue to put increasing pressure on already stretched resources, digital solutions have a key role to play in improving efficiencies in the delivery of care.
Lengthy ambulance waits, delays discharging patients, widespread strains on resources, poor visibility of patients ready for discharge and poor visibility of available capacity across the organisation are common challenges across the NHS. The time for action is now.
In our session, 'Supporting the sustainability of the NHS: Making a difference beyond the hospital walls,' Mark Hutchinson, Vice President Healthcare Strategy and Transformation for Altera will provide healthcare leaders, IT professionals, and clinicians with valuable insights on the current reality as we look to the future and consider the impact and benefits to be gained from technology.
Mark will share insights and best practices covering:
- The importance of sustainability in healthcare and the role of EPRs to ensure long-term viability, resilience, and a future-proofed healthcare system.
- How technology can improve patient flow and drive efficiency.
- The vital role of interoperability and data integration.
- Actionable steps for healthcare institutions to make a difference beyond hospital walls.
- The importance of adopting a holistic approach to patient care and resource management.
- How it is possible to accelerate digital maturity with a cost-effective approach.
