Shared Care Record: A vital tool for enhanced patient care and collaboration
Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust
Our vision is simple: improving mental health wellbeing.
In our current healthcare landscape, patient information often resides in silos across various providers and organisations. The Shared Care Record revolutionises this by creating a secure, digital platform that consolidates health and social care information for a comprehensive view of each patient's history.
This centralised access is key to improved care delivery.
