CMR
is committed to assisting GP practices,
hospitals and PCT’s. YourHealth promises to make a considerable
improvement to both the quantity and quality of patient data
collection processes. CMR is convinced that the best way of
making things more efficient and saving costs is to maximise
the use of automation. This means that YourHealth must pass
data quickly and accurately to existing and future systems.
Equally, while the
dependency on statistical data increases, everything possible
needs to be done to reduce the administrative load on health
practitioners. CMR recognises that YourHealth has a major role
here too. Early indications are that advanced collection and
more efficient presentation of patient data could help to reduce
consultation times and help GPs, Consultants and nurses make
the most of their face to face time with their patients.
YourHealth
will encourage patients manage their health better.
The process of pro-active engagement through a Touch Screen
has already shown itself to be popular with patients. CMR’s
YourHealth can support the education process by offering advice
through a carefully constructed questionnaire programme. This
can help GPs to focus services on the whole person and make
it easier for them to provide supplementary information and
literature to patients. YourHealth could also be configured
as a powerful resource for Universities and schools to use for
promoting healthier lifestyles while they fulfil their academic
programme.
If
your GP Practice, Hospital or PCT would like to spend more time
on patient consultations
and less on time consuming administration; if you are looking
for a more pro-active approach to clinical intervention and
want to encourage ‘self-care’ amongst your patients
then YourHealth could make an invaluable contribution.
