ABOUT THE PROJECT
The acute medical unit (AMU) is the first point of entry for patients who are referred to hospital as emergencies, by their GP or who require admission from the emergency department.
THE CHALLENGE
AMU is a busy environment receiving roughly 30 to 50 admissions every day. It is not normally a long-term stay area for patients, who are expected to be sent home or moved a specialty ward within 24 to 48 hours.
THE SOLUTION
Created a digital solution that streamlined the AMU process, and allowed clinicians to view patient information and carry out physical assessments and diabetes tests.
