Overview
Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust (LGT) is embarking on the biggest programme of digitally-enabled clinical and operational transformation we have ever undertaken. The Electronic Patient Record (EPR) Acceleration Programme aims to transform how we deliver health and care in a clinically and financially sustainable way. We will join regional partner organisations (Guy’s and St. Thomas’ and King’s College Hospitals) to create a shared acute and community record across south-east London, enabling increased joint working and improved patient and staff experience across the region.
Key to the success of the EPR implementation is configuring the existing EPR to meet the needs of Lewisham and Greenwich. Our analysts will work with analysts from the other trusts to prepare for the EPR go-live in 2027, ensuring the system configuration meets Trust needs and supports testing of the solution prior to go-live.
