Paperless NHS
Dear North West Ambulance Service NHS Trust,
The Department of Health intends the NHS to become paper-free.
For your NHS Trust, please confirm the following:
1. Have you deployed commercial IT software products to automate your policies around patient observation and the capturing of vital signs for early-warning of deterioration?
2. If your answer to Question 1 is YES, please confirm the commercial names of these software products and confirm the date when their current support contracts will expire.
Yours faithfully,
C. Mir
North West Ambulance Service
