Healthcare for the Digital era

When emergency department capacity is exceeded, patients wait hours before seeing a doctor and even longer before being transferred to a department. Overcrowded emergency departments contribute to poor patient care and frustration for patients and families.

IBOX ED Module provides a Live Status visualisation that brings together the many core metrics required to manage patient flow along with a patient facing welcome screen to ensure patients are informed of waiting times.

Release Staff Time For Patient Care

From admission to discharge, our Patient Flow software helps teams and services work together, improves handover and information sharing, and dynamically reports on blockers so they can be proactively managed. Better visibility of patient flow helps to increase efficiency, improve patient care and release staff time.

Visibility Of The Whole Patient Journey

IBOX Patient Flow can be integrated with services and systems external to the Trust. That means that there can be visibility and communication across the whole patient journey – before admission, within the hospital and into the social care system.

Approximately 7.33 million people are currently waiting for treatment, with 3.3 million patients waiting over 18 weeks. The median waiting time for treatment is 14.1 weeks, double the pre-Covid wait. Manual prioritisation is time consuming, prone to bias and error, and leaves tens of thousands in the same category.

Effectively managing waiting lists is crucial to address these challenges and improve patient experience in elective care.

Waiting List Management module, integrates into existing pathway management tools and can triage hundreds of thousands of patients a day, processing and reprocessing the waiting list dynamically. Support to help identify which patient to optimise prior to operation or outpatient consultation.

Timely and well-planned maternity care is crucial for positive maternal and child health outcomes. However, poor maternity services, as highlighted in the Ockenden Report, can have severe consequences. The report reveals significant concerns in care for maternal deaths (75% of cases), stillbirths (25% of cases), and neonatal deaths.

To address these challenges, our Maternity Module, provides comprehensive solution to optimise patient flow and streamline maternity department operations by utilising live status visualisation, personalised care pathways and care risk assessment tools.

Patient Care, Key Staff and Asset Orchestration

Over 30% of NHS Nurses reported they spent one hour per shift simply looking staff time wasted looking for equipment. This equates to around £900 million in wasted nursing time each year.

This is a significant amount of time and money that could be better spent on patient care. By implementing asset tracking systems, hospitals can help to reduce the amount of time nurses spend looking for equipment, and free up their time to focus on providing care to patients.

HealthTrack searchable maps the real-time location of any IoT tagged resource or assets. Reducing search times to minutes.

Open data, put simply, is data that can be accessed, used and shared, by anyone, for any purpose. Many organisations collect a broad range of data in order to perform their tasks: making this data publicly accessible contributes to the transparency agenda, which is important for:

• improving outcomes and productivity in our public services
• promoting higher quality and more efficient services, choice and accountability
• encouraging economic growth – it enables the development of tools to support users, commissioners and providers of public services

IBOX along with Facts and Dimensions have created a platform to allow visualisation of open data coving areas like Mortality, Waiting Times, Urgent Care and much, much more.
