Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital to roll out Epic EPR in 2025

The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust (RNOH) has announced plans to implement the Epic electronic health record (EHR) in 2025. This decision follows funding approval by NHS England and will involve all three of the trust’s sites: the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital in Stanmore, the Bolsover Street Outpatient Assessment Centre, and the Enfield Musculoskeletal Community Health Hub. The implementation of Epic’s EHR aims to replace paper records and current clinical systems with a single, integrated clinical record, allowing staff to access accurate patient information. The partnership with University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (UCLH) will provide valuable insights and tools for staff to enhance patient care and efficiency. This digital innovation demonstrates the commitment of RNOH to advancing patient care and maintaining its position as a leading provider in the UK.
