NHS Seizing Technological Opportunities
Rapid developments in technology are opening up new ways to effectively and efficiently improve quality of care and maximise the value of the NHS and the social care budget. New Health Secretary, Matt Hancock, has proved to be dedicated to digitally overhauling the NHS with a number of recent announcements declaring increasing amounts of funding being allocated to technology. This month’s announcement has proved to be no exception as it stated that there will be a further £200m of funding allocated to creating additional global digital exemplars.
Tackling Chilly Temperature with IoT Technology
The challenges associated with funding the care for an ageing population in the colder months continue. In one week alone last winter, the NHS had over 31,000 escalation beds open to cope with the demand, the equivalent of opening an additional eight hospitals. Yet many of the emergency admissions of the elderly due to falls, pneumonia, even dehydration, are avoidable – if there was a way to better identify and proactively address emerging problems.
Care & the social ecosystem
The challenge associated with supporting and funding the care for an ageing population continues to escalate. And while rapid developments in technology are opening up new ways to effectively and efficiently improve the quality of care, and maximise the value of the NHS and the social care budget, it is essential to question how these digital solutions can be utilised to make a real difference to the care industry.
