NHS strike action continued and spread to radiographers. The Department of Health and Social Care held an NHS Recovery Summit that included demonstrations of AI and virtual reality headsets. NHS England announced the roll-out of a hospital at home service for children and asked ICBs and trusts to prepare for a new planned discharge metric.
In a small flurry of electronic patient record news, Jersey General Hospital implemented the MAXIMS EPR, Liverpool Women’s upgraded from MEDITECH Magic to Expanse, and South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust announced that it will be the first to go-live with the Epic-led Encompass programme in Northern Ireland.
