Our Practice is in the process of digitising all paper medical records as part of a national NHS initiative. 

This means that all paper-based patient notes will be securely scanned and saved into patient electronic medical records.

The nationally-funded digitisation process is due to begin in April 2025 and will take several months to complete.

Digitising these records will:

• Improve access to patient information for healthcare professionals
• Reduce the risk of lost or damaged records
• Free up valuable space within the practice for improved patient care

This project aligns with the NHS Long Term Plan published in 2019 to modernise healthcare systems and improve efficiency.
