Transforming community nurses Significantly more productivity by cutting down on travel time Using Toughbook helped transform the working life of community nurses at Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. “There is no doubt in my mind that using the Toughbook has helped to transform my productivity and would be a major benefit to community nurses and patients in helping to carry out our duties.” Penny Millington
Derby NHS goes wireless Notebooks Allow smooth transition of collecting patient information wirelessly Panasonic’s Toughbook has been used within the boundaries of the hospitals, as well as used by community based district nurses, social care workers, occupational therapists and physiotherapists. The notebook has enabled the smooth transition of collecting patient information wirelessly and updating data instantly.
Improving patient safety & care Pioneering revolutionary new technology on mobile clinical assistants Toughbook’s MCA was the hardware used to support Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust’s new state-of-the-art software solution. “Panasonic’s MCA display allowed for easy review of patient data on wards, once it has been collected on the PDAs. The visual displays are clear and bright, so graphs and colour-coded risk scores are clearly visible. ” Professor Gary Smith
Kids order meals on Toughbooks Birmingham children’s hospital has implemented a new food ordering system The hospital introduced a new food ordering and management system using Panasonic Toughbook MCA. “We believe it’s a brilliant system and we’re very excited at the benefits this will bring our patients and our staff. If patients see a picture they are more likely to order the correct meal, suited to their needs, reducing waste and improving their experience.” Louise Kiely
Efficiently recording patient data Improving care where it’s needed most Revolutionising the way East Midlands Ambulance Service crews recorded patient information. “We quickly realised Toughbooks were right for the job we wanted to do in the field. A lot of the time our crews are out in the cold, wet and snow, and in dirty conditions, such as under cars at RTAs. In these conditions, the products we use regularly take hard knocks.” Andy Evans
