Case Study: Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust achieves faster digital transformation with Altera Digital Health’s Sunrise EPR

How Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust achieved rapid benefits realisation through its fast implementation of Sunrise EPR

Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust, an NHS provider serving a population of 590,000, faced challenges with time-consuming, paper-based clinical processes and significant data duplication. These manual workflows kept clinicians from patient care and introduced safety risks. To address this, the trust partnered with Altera Digital Health to implement its Sunrise electronic patient record (EPR) system.

Altera Digital Health implemented its highly configurable Sunrise EPR in a fast, phased rollout that was clinically led. The solution streamlined workflows, improved the visibility of patient data, and released time back to care. The measurable impact includes over 27,000 documents now created electronically each day, eliminating paper and improving patient safety. The trust achieved this rapid digital transformation affordably using its local budget.
