Electronic changeover forms are improving how resident doctors hand over patient information – supporting safer, more efficient transitions between shifts.

By moving from paper-based processes to a digital solution, the project helps standardise handovers, reduce errors and ensure key clinical information is clearly captured and accessible.

HI NENC supported the work by helping to share learning and promote the adoption of digital solutions that improve patient safety and streamline workflows.

Yesterday, we were excited to see our Associate Director, Mark Henderson, attend a POCDOC Parliamentary reception in London.

This event brought together NHS leaders, policymakers, patient organisations, and innovators to explore how we can harness technology to improve cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes and support economic growth.

Mark was able to highlight and celebrate our Healthy Hearts Programme, which uses the PocDoc point-of-care cholesterol test to deliver community-based cholesterol testing across the North East and North Cumbria.
