Case Study: Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust achieves greater mobility and collaboration with Microsoft Surface by Microsoft Corporation

Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust - Customer Case Study

Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust needed a better way to support mobile working, clinical collaboration, and remote ward rounds across multiple sites. By adopting Microsoft Corporation Surface devices, the Trust also had to upgrade its Wi‑Fi and infrastructure so staff could access systems seamlessly in wards, offices, and off-site locations.

Microsoft Corporation’s Surface and Teams enabled clinicians to work anywhere, update records instantly, and replace long in-person meetings with online sessions. The result was major time savings and easier collaboration: one ward-round meeting dropped from about 2.5 hours including travel to just 20 minutes, while the Trust also improved connectivity across sites and reduced the need for separate collaboration tools.
