What about the Trust next door?
30 Jul 10 18:13

I know Morecambe Bay's go-live is now several months late (if not several years if you believe what was orginally envisaged as the NPfIT implementation timetable for acute trusts), but I'm really interested to know what's happening in the trust next door - Blackpool, Fylde and Wyre - since (and to be fair to them) they've previously announced a planned 10-week delay to their go-live with their non-LSP EPR. I think we should all be interested in watching this space towards the end of September.

At Last...

Think all readers of EHI have been waiting with baited breath and the doom mongers can't wait to pile in. Most of the posts here are nonsense, written from a pedestal of ignorance.

Lets be clear, a PAS replacement at an Acute Trust is a huge undertaking and inevitably problems occur whether NPfIT or not NPfIT. Problems occur mo matter where and no matter what system, usual problem suspects surface everywhere. Lets be clear, the only sensible way an Acute can roll out the PAS is big bang - to even suggest otherise (post 9) shows a complete lack of knowledge of the subject.

You shouldn't always believe what you read - especially in the North West Evening Mail.

Poor Reporting Again...

This is quite a poor representation of the facts. The implication in this story is that iPM is feeding Lorezno, it is not. There is no interoperability between the two systems. So the poster in post 9 can strike that off his list please. Also, its no feasible to do an Acute, ward by ward. Actually, probably better to keep your opinions to yourself as you clearly don't know anything about the project.

Lets be honest, no matter what system it is - it takes time to get used to it. Remember the fury of the clincians in Barts? when Cerner went in, a year later they actually said it was fine.
