New system for long-term conditions

Clinical Solutions is due to launch its new system for the management of long-term conditions (LTCs) at the Healthcare Computing conference and exhibition (HC2007) this month.

By placing patients’ needs at the heart of the service, the case management and decision support software enables GPs and nurses to support care of patients with LTCs more easily.

When integrated with telemonitoring devices, it allows clinicians to support and advise patients on ongoing care without the need for a home visit or surgery appointment.

Jackie Rice-Haga, Clinical Solutions’ Director of Nursing explains: “We must acknowledge the fact that there is an ageing population around the world that will require ongoing care. Within health services globally, there is an ever-increasing need to use existing resources in the most appropriate way. This system uses primary care givers’ time more effectively to empower patients with long term conditions to take more responsibility for how they look after themselves.”

Visit Clinical Solutions at stand B50 at the Healthcare Computing exhibition, held at the Harrogate International Centre, 19–21 March.
