We have previously successfully integrated our software with electronic health records (EHRs), enabling clinicians to access all relevant patient data through a single EHR.

Our systems used for identifiable patient data are hosted in ISO27001-compliant secure environments. All of our staff are trained in information governance, data security and data protection, and we comply with relevant NHS data security guidance.

We have worked across health domains and long-term conditions, from mental health to cystic fibrosis to cancer. We can also apply this to other areas as needed.

We have previously developed two software medical devices under the Medical Devices Directive, and can meet the more stringent 2021 Medical Device Regulations.

Our core values of commitment, respectfulness, excellence, collaboration, empowerment and making an impact mean we take a collaborative, people-first approach to deliver to a high standard while always seeking to improve our work.
