Case Study: Buckshaw Village Surgery transforms anticoagulation treatment management with Dakota Integrated Solutions

Buckshaw Village Surgery Mobile Computing Solution Transforms the Management of Anticoagulation Treatments

Buckshaw Village Surgery, a healthcare provider serving a large elderly and dementia patient population, faced significant challenges in managing its anticoagulation treatment program. The process was inefficient, requiring multiple patient journeys to clinics, delays of 3-5 days for results and prescriptions, and increased clinical risk. They partnered with Dakota Integrated Solutions to find a better way.

Dakota Integrated Solutions implemented a mobile computing solution using Motion C5 Tablet PCs running EMIS Web and INRstar software, alongside mobile diagnostic devices. This allowed healthcare staff to conduct tests, analyze results, and electronically prescribe medication in real-time during home visits or at new drop-in clinics. The solution from Dakota Integrated Solutions drastically reduced process times, cut costs, improved medication compliance, and significantly enhanced the quality of care for vulnerable patients.
