VitalHub Corp. (the “Company” or “VitalHub”) (TSXV: VHI) is pleased
to announce the deployment of newly-acquired Intouch with Health’s
digital patient flow solution at newly-built Clatterbridge Cancer
Centre – Liverpool (“CCC-L” or “Clatterbridge”).
The new Clatterbridge Cancer Centre – Liverpool (CCC-L) is a
major new hospital that will transform cancer care in one of the
worst-affected areas of the UK, and is part of The Clatterbridge
Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust. Clatterbridge has deployed
VitalHub’s newly acquired Intouch with Health’s digital patient
flow solution, to help improve the patient experience and drive
efficiency across its cancer clinics.
Clatterbridge, an 11-storey hospital, is part of a £162m
investment in transforming cancer services across Cheshire and
Merseyside. The hospital has deployed Intouch with Health’s central
outpatient flow management platform to allow staff and clinicians
to track the location and status of patients for the duration of
their appointment, as well as room and resource management to
control clinic allocation and room occupancy across its three
sites. The Trust has also introduced self-service kiosks to allow
patients to register their arrival without attending reception and
digital patient calling screens to transfer patients from waiting
areas to clinic rooms when appropriate.
“A quick check-in process with no queues and clear instructions
on where to wait, followed by discreet, clear instructions when the
clinician is ready to see the patient make a huge difference to
their overall experience. Many patients have already commented on
how easy and straight forward the process is,” said Jeni Bradshaw,
Digital Programme Manager at The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS
Foundation Trust. “Intouch with Health’s technology is helping us
operate much more efficient clinics. Staff are notified of a
patient’s arrival on the live dashboard and can see which clinic
they are attending and which waiting room they have been directed
to.”
She continued: “Staff are given visibility into the status of a
given patient, including whether they’ve arrived, where they’re
located, and whether they’ve been called for their appointment.
This is all supplemented by the digital management of clinic
allocation and room utilisation across our three sites using the
central dashboard. Clinical staff can review room availability and
arrange job plans accordingly with access to a clear view of
clinics across the whole Trust, which has previously been difficult
to visualise.”
“As new healthcare facilities continue to be developed, there is
a considerable opportunity to implement automated patient
visibility and operational management solutions that streamline
efficiencies and improve access to care,” said Dan Matlow, CEO of
VitalHub Corp. “Having been selected in a competitive scenario by
CCC-L - a prestigious, world-leading cancer centre - demonstrates
the depth of our product platform, and evidences the market need to
deploy these solutions across premier healthcare sites.”
