North Middlesex University Hospital NHS Trust to implement 'Unity' as part of their Trust wide EMR project

North Middlesex University Hospital (NMUH) is one of London’s busiest acute hospitals, serving more than 350,000 people living in Enfield and Haringey and the surrounding areas, including Barnet and Waltham Forest.

Fortrus are delighted to have been selected by NMUH for the provision of a new Electronic Document Management System (EDMS), which will form part of the Trust wide EMR project to be fully digital by 2017 at the very latest, ensuring all patient records are digitally available at the point of care. The Unity solution will initially be deployed in Paediatrics, enabling users to access digitised patient records amalgamated with patient attendance information. By providing an augmented timeline view and numerous tools for navigating and searching the record, the solution will help clinicians make better informed decisions for patient care.
