Digital Pen

Streets Heaver, one of the UK’s leading suppliers of administrative and clinical systems for independent hospitals, clinics and NHS private patient units, has today announced a partnership with the digital pen technology experts, Ubisys.  Digital pen and paper functionality will be integrated into Streets Heaver’s Clinical Manager and Compucare systems, helping clinicians to reach efficiency targets while reducing the time they spend on paperwork and administration.  Compucare is Streets Heaver’s patient administration and hospital information system, providing clinicians with patient, mangement, financial and clinical support, while Clinical Manager is its therapy management system.

The digital pen and paper technology from Ubisys enables clinicians to write reports or assessments on specially formatted paper, which can be pre-populated with key data.  The stored pen strokes are then converted into electronic format, and the pens can be docked or connected to mobile phones to securely submit information to the system, enabling the appropriate patient record to be updated.  The technology is already delivering substantial cost savings for other NHS users.

Paul Heaver, Managing Director of Streets Heaver says:  “We see this new partnership as a way of delivering benefits to our customers, allowing them to cut costs, reduce paperwork and minimise the amount of time spent in front of the computer.” 

Tarek Ghouri, Managing Director of Ubisys says: “By delivering a truly integrated end to end solution for the Healthcare market, Streets Heaver are demonstrating their leadership and innovation in their specialist market.  We are delighted to be working with them in developing the exciting opportunities Digital Pen has brought NHS practitioners.”

Ubisys are specialist providers of digital pen and paper technology to the NHS.  Their easy to use software platform (Formidable) enables organisations to easily and quickly build, print and deploy digital paper applications that positively improve traditional paper based processes.  See www.ubisys.co.uk for further information, or contact Tarek Ghouri on 01937 420543.
