Sláintecare hosted our fourth Right Care, Right Place, Right Time, Webinar - ‘eHealth’ on 10 September 2020.
The theme of our fourth webinar was ‘eHealth’ and how eHealth initiatives are supporting the delivery of Sláintecare leading to improved care pathways and better health outcomes.
This webinar shared stories of how, through the use of eHealth and digital supports we are working to provide right care, right place, right time by the right team. We heard from projects which are funded through the Sláintecare Integration Fund as well as a HSE funded project.
Presentations from three projects:
Ben Cloney, Head of Digital for the HSE, and his team presented two projects which are being supported through the Sláintecare Integration fund and which will deliver:
Julie Bellew, IT Deputy Delivery Director for Primary Care, HSE presented her project titled ‘Attend Anywhere’ which is a platform to allow clinicians to undertake secure video consultations, both one-on-one and via virtual clinics. This platform helps bring care directly into peoples’ homes, minimises physical contact between providers and patients and reduces the burden of the COVID-19 pandemic on the acute care service.
Professor May Cleary, Orthopaedic Department Lead, University Hospital Waterford was interviewed by Dr Gráinne Healy. Professor Cleary’s project works to provide rapid GP access to an orthopaedic specialist through mobile telemedicine. This project will help GPs deliver non-urgent care in the community, which is convenient for patients and helps them avoid the acute hospital setting. Ultimately, the efficiencies gained will lead to a reduction in the waiting list for Orthopaedic Elective Outpatients.
This webinar was the fourth in a series of webinars and is being hosted by Sláintecare in partnership with HSE and IFIC Ireland.
