Technology & Digital Health

We use plenty of different technologies in the practice,  aimed at providing a better service to our patients. The various programmes or services do this in a range of ways, such as enabling timely communications with our patients, speeding up the clinician’s workflow, helping to pick up early signs of cancer, or taking and summarising consultation notes automatically to free up more time for the clinician to spend with their patients. Below is a list of current software that the practice uses:

Accurx/Accurx Scribe

 Accurx is the easy to use platform where patients and healthcare professionals communicate through text message and/or email. It is used across the NHS for sending and receiving messages from and to patients. Accurx Scribe is a software that helps the clinicians when taking clinical notes.
