This is a continuously evolving situation” – how Sesui helped providers iterate and adapt to remote working
Oli White
Head of Commercial
Sesui Healthcare
At the start of the COVID crisis, Sesui’s primary task was to deliver the best service to our existing 111, Urgent Care and Primary Care clients. Then new problems presented, nearly every day, with many of them based around how to deliver secure and reliable services from outside the usual clinical locations. This case study shows how Sesui worked in a flexible way to deliver transformation with cloud-based phone, video and SMS communication.

Data-Driven Learning Health Systems and Automated Clinical Epidemiology Studies for NHS
Krish Nirantharan
Institute of Applied Health Research
University of Birmingham
In a Learning Health System (LHS) we aim to apply existing evidence-based knowledge into practice, capture data on current practice continuously within the healthcare infrastructure, analyse the data to identify gaps in practice and to generate new knowledge, and then close the loop by undertaking quality improvement initiatives and by incorporating new knowledge into practice. NHS has a wealth of data that can enable rapid learning health systems. In this presentation, an overview of existing tools that can enable LHS and an innovative tool for Automated Clinical Epidemiology Studies (ACES) by the University of Birmingham to conduct epidemiological studies that can facilitate LHS will be discussed.

Successfully Supporting Healthcare Technologies in the Socially Distanced World
Mike Patchett
Head of Public Sector (UK &Ireland)
Lakeside Software
In the Covid-19 prevalent world, it has become the norm that organisation’s staff “Work From Home” indeed as we emerge from the pandemic crisis it is questionable whether we will ever return to the office-based world as the “success of the experiment” forced on businesses by Covid-19 has been such that employees and leadership both recognise the positive outcome of the “new norm”
For Healthcare workers delivering essential care, both Acute and Chronic, this is not a possibility. True some GP consultations can initially be done online but at some stage for a large number of patients, their patient journey will take them to a healthcare facility.
But what about those Information Technology staff who are vital to keeping the underlying technology infrastructure functioning at peak performance?
Surely it is counterproductive for them to be visiting Wards and Surgeries to diagnose and fix problems. To so do will expose the healthcare staff and the IT professionals to an undue risk of virus transmission.
There has to be a better way.

Supporting Digital Transformation: FlexNHS
Aasha Cowey
Programme Manager
NHS South, Central and West CSU
In this presentation, Aasha will reflect on the relationship between flexible working and the digital, data and technology workforce, and it’s growing importance. On one hand, digital and remote working is a huge enabler for flexible working for the whole of our health and social care workforce. On the other hand, offering flexible working arrangements may encourage individuals to consider a longer-term career in the NHS with a better work-life balance. Both of the above have a positive impact on retention and recruitment for the workforce. COVID has forced us to reflect on some of this at a much quicker pace, but the culture has not necessarily caught up yet.

Transforming healthcare using technology
David East
Business Solutions Director
Visionable
We know that healthcare professionals’ time is of the utmost importance. It could mean the difference between life and death for their patients.
So when it comes to IT, there’s no time for issues with reliability and national outages, struggling through vital virtual meetings with limited sharing ability, low-quality images and limited participants. Time is precious and to make sure patients receive the best possible care, healthcare professionals need the best tools to work efficiently and effectively.
When the UK lockdown was announced in March, there was not enough time to really consider what video platform would be the best for enabling healthcare teams to continue working to the highest standard from wherever they were. Problems have started to arise and many platforms have seen national outages over the last few months, affecting numerous NHS trusts up and down the country.
Now that things are starting to settle down, it is a good opportunity to think about longer-term virtual solutions that meet the needs of your Trust.

NHS Robotics in Healthcare
Sean Houghton
Associate Director, Medical Devices Connected & Digital Health
Ipsos MORI
Healthcare has been evolving in leaps and bounds as we strive to keep up with the developing needs of the population. From the introduction of computers in the 1970s to surgical robots now, the healthcare industry is at the cutting edge of technology. Having an understanding of the uses of robotics in healthcare as well as some perceived advantages and disadvantages and examples of its uses will put you in good stead for your medical school interview. I’m going to briefly outline the history of robotic technologies in healthcare, go through the pros and cons and finish with some examples of where they’ve been used.
