Perspectives on NHS IT security

Co-ordinating health and social care

(News) Permanent link

Have you seen our latest article in the BJHC&IM: "Secure information systems are the foundation for co-ordinating health and social care"?

BJHCIMBelow is an extract:

"By 2022, 20% of the English population will be aged over 65 and by 2027 the number of people aged over 85 will have increased by 60%. As well as putting more demands on our healthcare system, this increases pressure on social care organisations as they face growing numbers of patients with complex conditions such as dementia and chronic illnesses associated with old age."

Hytec's Director of Information Security Alan Hunt continues by outlining some of the current initiatives for co-ordinated care, and explains how safer information sharing is a key factor.
