Challenges
Real-time and secure information delivery

The many paper-based systems in today's NHS make it unnecessarily difficult for a team of medical experts to have a complete, up-to-date 'single view' for patients. Such an approach could greatly enhance the quality of care and would also reduce the possibility of medical errors occurring. A good way to achieve this would be by introducing electronic patient records, making for more effective information sharing between healthcare professionals. In addition, the advances in medical care collaboration between hospital, GPs and research organisations will allow medical staff to have the latest medical knowledge at their fingertips and to follow best practice.
