    NHS Derbyshire Community Health Services Trust: Improving care and communication in the community

    Challenge

    Derbyshire Community Health Services NHS Trust wanted to leverage communications technology to reduce business travel and improve efficiency

    Solution

    The health authority is promoting wide scale use of BT MeetMe audio conferencing as an alternative to face-to-face internal meetings

    Value

    BT MeetMe audio conferencing is enabling more sustainable business practice, helping to release cash, improve productivity, and enhance patient care

    Challenge

    Derbyshire Community Health Services NHS Trust is responsible for providing healthcare services throughout the county. Like many progressive NHS trusts it’s keen to leverage new technology to improve productivity and release cash.

    Alvaro Pancisi, Head of Information Management and Technology Strategy at  Derbyshire Community Health Services NHS Trust, says: “Ours is a large county and our staff spend a lot of time travelling – collectively over five million miles each year. Much of that’s essential, visiting patients in their homes for example, but many other trips such as for internal meetings could be avoided.”
