UHSFT so on . That ' s mighty complex in its own right ,” said Pinto . Despite these challenges , UHSFT has partnered with InterSystems , an industryleading vendor for database management , rapid application development and integration . With InterSystems , UHSFT utilises its HealthShare platform that sits at the centre of the Trust ’ s systems . By integrating its solutions , InterSystems has been a key partner in UHSFT ’ s digital transformation .
Continuing with UHSFT ’ s digital strategy to improve operations At the heart of all of the Trust ’ s initiatives is its patients . Pinto believes in order for
UHSFT ’ s digital strategy to be successful , it needs to consider both inpatients and outpatients . Discussing outpatients , Pinto said , “ I ' m a great believer that what we need to do is empower patients to have the information they need to help them manage their care , and if they ' re a long-term patient in the hospital , they can easily access that when they need it . That , without any question , is a real focus on personal health records and sharing data with patients ; asking them where appropriate to rate their symptoms . It ' s called patient-reported outcome measures , which we then share with their clinical teams .”
