We understand that in order to provide the best possible care to your patients, you need the right tools to work together at scale. Enabling teams to work collaboratively across organisations within your network can allow you to relieve pressure, free up valuable time and provide a wider range of services to your community. What’s more, data insights can help you to shape these services around the needs of your patient population – tackling health inequalities and embracing opportunities for proactive, preventative care.
EMIS Web has helped us to break down boundaries across the NHS
With EMIS Web PCN Hub, we've brought together the core components you'll need to run your Primary Care Network effectively, including EPS, GP Connect appointments and care record sharing, as well as our GP workload tool and Consultation Write Back functionality. Supported by the relevant sharing agreements, PCN Hub is enabling the relevant clinicians in any service to access the patient records they need to deliver accurate and personalised care, and to manage patient needs from within a dedicated hub environment.
Enabling your clinicians to work effectively together to meet patient needs is essential for a successful PCN. Our technology is designed to support collaborative working, promote safety and enable efficiencies. We’re making it easier to share valuable clinical expertise across your local area whilst ensuring patients are cared for by the right teams.
The ability for PCNs to share administrative services and capabilities can have a huge impact on time saving and patient experience. Our solutions can enable your PCN the flexibility to deliver services in a way that works for you – from centralised administrative functions to multiple teams collaborating together.
We understand that your workforce is your most valuable asset, and you need to be able to deploy your people flexibly to meet changing demands. With effective workforce planning, you can ensure you have the right people, with the right skillset working in the right place at the right time. We’ve got the tools to help you upskill your teams to work effectively wherever they’re needed, and to connect you to a pool of healthcare professionals when you need additional support.
Obtaining a full picture and understanding of the needs and pressures across your PCN can enable you to make effective changes that drive efficiency and improve outcomes. Data driven insights allow you to get a holistic view of care delivery across your network, and redesign services to align to local needs, meaning you can focus not just on reactive care, but preventative treatment pathways.
