Ideal Training provide floor walkers for West Somerset Cerner
Millennium deployment
30 January 2008
Ideal Training have successfully supported a Cerner Millennium
go-live at Taunton and Somerset NHS Foundation Trust by providing a team
of ten floor walkers.
The Trust went live at Musgrove Park Hospital and some of the local
community hospitals (known as West Somerset Family) with Millennium
release 0 in mid December.
Musgrove Park is the largest general hospital in Somerset with 700
beds and 4000 staff, of which 1800 are Cerner system users. This
implementation is the culmination of two years work and is the largest
IT project the hospitals have experienced.
Neil Stevens, Head of Somerset Health Informatics Service and
Programme Director for the Cerner Project was delighted with the
professional, smooth running and controlled implementation programme. He
said “The support we received during and post implementation was of high
quality”.
Carole Shuff, Programme Manager said, “We recognised the enormous
impact a good floorwalking team has on the success of project
implementation and working with Somerset Health Informatics trainers and
the training guides produced we felt we could provide an excellent
support service. With Ideal Training’s previous track record and
experience in Cerner implementations, we felt confident in the service
offered.”
Ideal Training continue to support Musgrove Park and associated
Somerset Community hospitals within the West Somerset Family and are
currently looking after their data entry needs.
