Cellma Expansion at NHSGGC

Cellma has successfully expanded its services across 5 further hospitals in Greater Glasgow and Clyde. Cellma went live on 3rd November 2014 for all rheumatology services across Victoria Infirmary, Gartnavel General Hospital, Southern General Hospital, Stobhill General Hospital and Glasgow Royal Infirmary. This is in addition to Cellma’s existing implementation at hospitals including Inverclyde Royal Hospital, Royal Alexandra Hospital and the Vale of Leven District General Hospital.

Cellma currently provides full Electronic Patient Record and Document Management modules for Rheumatology Services provided by the Greater Glasgow and Clyde Health Board, the largest in the UK, for the past 2 years. Cellma has already been implemented to integrate with the existing Patient Administration and Scheduling systems, produce Cellma generated GP letters within 24 hours, standardise assessments and generate standardised and ad-hoc reports, within these sites.

The 2014 service expansion will lead to an increase in patient throughput as Cellma’s new dashboard reporting capability will be deployed to facilitate increased effectiveness in patient monitoring, hospital management and pharmaceutical applications. Cellma’s existing Electronic Patient Record module, containing all demographic and care data, has been extended to continue allowing access to one electronic patient record at the point of contact, improving decision making and patient outcomes.

Enhanced benefits that Cellma will now provide Greater Glasgow and Clyde include:

• Increase in efficiency of clerical and nursing staff to book and manage patient recalls
• Faster retrieval of patient records
• Reduced duplication of effort by clinicians
• Quicker generation of letters for referral to other healthcare professionals
• Drug interaction, allergy and adverse events recording
• Introduction of standardised processes for the assessment and management of patients
• Benchmarking of service performance vs national and local guidelines
• Encouragement of patient participation in their care through standardised self assessment modules
