Derbyshire Healthcare signs contract for SystmOne Mental Health

Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust has signed a contract with TPP for its SystmOne Mental Health module.

The trust said it went through a significant period of consultation and collaboration with employees to help identify better ways of working in meeting the needs of the Derbyshire community, and it plans to implement the platform in 2020.

Mark Powell, Chief Operating Officer for Derbyshire Healthcare “We know that SystmOne has been positive for our colleagues in substance misuse and children’s services.”

“The work we’ve been doing with users of our EPR systems indicates that working to a single system will make us more consistent, more effective, and ultimately, being able to provide the best possible services to our community. We feel that implementing SystmOne throughout the majority of our services provides the best opportunity to achieve those goals.”

The trust currently uses the SystmOne Community module for substance misuse and children’s services. The addition of the SystmOne Mental Health module will mean that the Trust will soon benefit from a single Electronic Patient Record (EPR) across the majority of their services.

Ashley Brook, Director, TPP  “I am particularly pleased to be extending our relationship with Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. We’re very much looking forward to working with the Trust to help them improve the effectiveness of how they record their patient information.”

“As many of the services across the Derbyshire region are already utilising SystmOne, the Trust will be aided in enhancing efficiencies and providing better care to patients through integrating their patient records internally and externally with the wider health care system ”.
