Case Study: Peterborough and Stamford Hospitals achieve safe transfer of 600 patients and 3,500 staff with DeskAlerts

Peterborough and Stamford Hospitals - Customer Case Study

Peterborough and Stamford Hospitals, an NHS Trust operating across two sites with over 4,000 employees, needed a reliable backup to email while moving services into a new building. To manage the safe transfer of approximately 600 patients and 3,500 staff and to communicate time-sensitive issues during the move on a limited budget, they selected DeskAlerts.

The hospital IT team deployed the DeskAlerts notification system to every PC to send instant messages about system outages, system moves and other move-related issues in real time. DeskAlerts proved easy to implement and maintain, had no negative impact on workstation performance, and delivered a cost-efficient solution that helped ensure the safe transfer of 600 patients and timely communication to roughly 3,500 staff, becoming the Trust’s main channel for urgent messaging.
