Job description
Job responsibilities
The OneEpr Program exists to implement a single integrated electronic patient record (EPR) designed to improve patient outcomes and the experience of delivering care for our colleagues.
The solution is the direct result of the combined vision and strategic goals of:
1. Isle of Wight NHS Trust (IWT)
2. Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust (PHU)
3. Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (HHFT)
4. University Hospital Southampton Foundation Trust (UHS)
The Trusts will work together with their clinical and departmental experts alongside regional digital colleagues to procure and implement a joint EPR over the coming years.
The introduction of EPR will support us in transforming how we work every day, helping us to run our services with the information we need at our fingertips. It will also help us to deliver care in a different way, according to best practice, efficiently and consistently.
Our EPR will act as an enabler for a greatly improved integrated healthcare system, in which caregivers and patients have electronic access to more complete health records and are empowered to make better health decisions.
