Find out about digital innovations and developments in cancer care in our upcoming webinars
On Thursday 26 September, our digital team held a webinar to discuss some of the digital developments that have taken place over the last year, including our new maternity electronic patient record (EPR) system, our new staff communication solution Alertive, and how patients are managing their care more closely with our digital Patient Hub. The team also be looked ahead, discussing the role of AI at the Trust, and the new EPR system for the wider Trust that will launch next year.
You can watch back the webinar here on YouTube.
Patients and carers – please share your stories with us
As a trust we learn most from the people who use our services and the people who work here. We are looking for patients, carers or family members who have used any of our services to tell us your stories.
We use these stories to learn from what went well so we can do more of those things and in some cases we learn from when things didn’t go well or according to plan. These stories can be told in different ways, face-to-face, on short video clips or they can be written down. We listen to what matters most and then make improvements based on what we hear.
If you have a story to tell we would like to hear from you. You can agree to the format we use to record your story and what we can do with this once you have told it.
Click here to register your interest in sharing your story with us.
