Using innovative technology for wound care assessments

Case study

Integrating our services has supported digital innovation across the Trust. We are exploring and supporting innovative solutions that improve patient care and staff experience.

It is now easier for us to evaluate and roll out technologies. Our digital and clinical teams worked closely together. Supporting the adoption, information governance and integration into our clinical workflows. We are using the knowledge and expertise gained from merging.

We have adopted Minuteful for Wound by Healthy.io Trust-wide. Minuteful for Wound is a secure smartphone app for clinicians.

The app enables clinicians to:

take accurate wound images and measurements
accurately analyse wound size and progression
identify changes in wound healing earlier
objectively track wounds
document wounds consistently

Patients experience fewer delays in identifying changes to treatment plans.

Staff will be able to use their time more effectively. They can spend more time delivering high quality care, rather than administrative tasks.

Our ambition is to use technology to improve outcomes, enhance productivity and provide more personalised care for our communities.
