Clinical documentation solutions for acute hospital trusts
Nuance solutions help acute hospital trusts to unburden clinicians of administrative tasks, improve the quality of patient notes, and accelerate the turnaround time of clinical documentation.
Reduce the burden of clinical documentation
Clinical speech recognition technology helps alleviate the burden of clinical documentation for hospital staff.
Concerns and benefits
Acute hospitals are cutting documentation turnaround times and eliminating outsourced transcription with speech recognition
Speech-enable the hospital electronic patient record (EPR) system to provide doctors, nurses, and allied healthcare professionals with an accurate, rapid, and efficient way to capture the complete patient story.
Improved clinician satisfaction
Research indicates that 85% of NHS healthcare professionals see the burden of clinical documentation as a significant contributor to burnout. AI-powered speech recognition is dramatically cutting the time clinicians spend on documentation, freeing them to spend more time on patient care.
Optimised and utilised EPR
AI-powered speech recognition and auto-text templates improve the quality of clinical notes and the richness of EPR data. Nuance speech recognition can also be used to navigate EPR systems more easily and to generate voice-driven content—including emails—outside the EPR.
Improved Transfer-of-Care
With speech recognition, notes are dictated directly into the EPR, helping NHS trusts to reduce clinic letter turnaround times from weeks to days. This expediency improves patient experience while ensuring that national targets are met.
Reduced outsourced transcription
In addition to reducing document turnaround times and improving Transfer-of-Care metrics, speech recognition also helps NHS trusts to significantly reduce or eliminate the expense of outsourced transcription services.
