Guy's, St Thomas', Evelina London, Royal Brompton and Harefield hospitals all have long histories of first class care, ground breaking research, innovation and teaching.
As part of one of the biggest ongoing investment programmes in the NHS, we always have a number of exciting projects in hand to keep us at the forefront of healthcare developments and provide our communities with world-leading care.
We want to provide the best possible care and support our staff to work efficiently and have more time to spend with our patients.
Apollo is our name for an ambitious programme to introduce Epic (a leading electronic patient records system) across all our hospitals, our community services and at King's College Hospital.
Epic is due to launch late September/early October 2023 and will transform the way that we work by replacing our historic IT systems and paper records. It will allow everyone involved in a patient's care to have access to all their records, whether in hospital, in a community clinic, or at home.
Our teams will have more time to spend with their patients and a complete overview of their care.
The better data capture will bring unique opportunities for research from basic science to patient-driven service improvements and greater efficiency.
Epic and other healthcare applications are used in some of the best hospitals around the world, as well as in the UK. It has been implemented in Cambridge University Hospitals, University College London Hospitals, Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children and Royal Devon and Exeter.
We're also going to be empowering our patients through the implementation of a new secure patient portal. This will allow our patients to gain access to their medical records, to book and manage their appointments, and engage actively and directly in the management of their health with their clinicians.
