Swansea Bay University Health Board: What does good look like?

'What does good look like?' with Tracey Bell, Head of Digital Planning, Planned Care and Community at Swansea Bay University Health Board

Background

The Hospital Electronic Prescribing and Medicines Administration (HEPMA) has effectively replaced paper medication charts across secondary care settings in Swansea Bay University Health Board, with a highly accessible digital alternative. The system reached a new milestone in April and is now accessible across all adult inpatient medical and surgical wards in scope at Morriston, Singleton, Gorseinon and Neath Port Talbot hospitals. HEPMA has also successfully been implemented across all mental health sites with the learning disabilities implementation scheduled for August 2024, subject to a successful upgrade with enhanced functionality.
