The transformation of pathology services across Northern Ireland has achieved another milestone, with the completion of phase three of the CoreLIMS programme to deploy Clinisys WinPath to all five health and social care trusts and the blood transfusion service.
Clinisys held its third customer summit in Dublin at a moment when Ireland’s pathology services are under scrutiny and could be on the verge of significant change.
In early September, the pathology system at Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust (NUH) failed, leading it to declare a critical incident. The root cause was a software issue, which meant the failure lay in a server platform that was not supported by Clinisys and was not related to its software. However, Clinisys arrived on site and the system was still restored within 24-hours. Trust Chief Digital and Transformation Officer Andy Callow explains.
Clinicians across five NHS trusts can now see pathology and other diagnostic test results from across the region, using the familiar ICE button.
Pathology has invested heavily in digital pathology, but that investment will only pay off if this new way of working is adopted by staff and results are reported digitally, argues Jake Morrow.
Clinisys will be once again inviting our customers in Ireland to the Clinisys Customer Summit Ireland 2024 at The Anantara Marker Hotel, Dublin on the 24th October 2024.
Clinisys’ annual conference has become such a major event that it has been split in two. This time, it was Clinisys WinPath laboratory information system customers who gathered at The Belfry to discuss the major challenges facing pathology, and the role of technology in addressing them.
In 2023, Clinisys delivered 467 UK go-lives to new and existing Clinisys WinPath and ICE customers; and is likely to exceed that in 2024. We talked to Adam Chapman and Steven Dexter about their work and what makes their teams so successful.
Clinisys is exited to attend and exhibit at the Annual SHOT Symposium on the 9th July 2024 at the Mercure Manchester Piccadilly Hotel. This one-day interactive event will cover key highlights from the latest annual SHOT report and will give all attendees a unique opportunity to network and share ideas about Transfusion safety.
When BSPS wanted to upgrade to the latest version of Clinisys WinPath, it knew that pathology services across two counties were depending on a smooth go live. Close, partnership working with Clinisys’ experts delivered that, alongside a move into the Telefonica Tech UK data centre enabling the network to gain new functionality to support digitalisation of histopathology reporting.
