“Our vision is for a fully integrated digital patient record across all care settings by 2018” SAFER HOSPITALS, SAFER WARDS: ACHIEVING AN INTEGRATED DIGITAL CARE RECORD, NHS England 2013 A Clinical portal is an electronic window that allows clinicians to view defined information about individual patients in a ‘virtual’ electronic patient record drawn from information held in different clinical systems. This conference focuses on implementing and developing clinical portals within clinical services, organisations and across organisations as a key tool in integrating systems and delivering the government recommendation of a paperless NHS by 2018. This approach to enabling the sharing of data using a connect all rather than a replace all approach using best of breed architecture which NHS England recently highlighted “A ‘best of breed’ architecture can provide more flexibility to implement digitisation gradually, piece by piece” SAFER HOSPITALS, SAFER WARDS: ACHIEVING AN INTEGRATED DIGITAL CARE RECORD, NHS England 2013 “The rise and rise of the clinical portal in the NHS has been driven by the end of the national programme for IT and now by the new information strategy. If there is not a portal near you now there soon will be” Health Service Journal. “The primary driver for whatever approach is chosen to create the technology stack must be clinician ownership and buy-in. If the doctors and nurses won’t use it then it doesn’t matter what technical functionality and capability has been introduced.” SAFER HOSPITALS, SAFER WARDS: ACHIEVING AN INTEGRATED DIGITAL CARE RECORD, NHS England 2013
