NHS England is launching a £35m Nursing Technology Fund to support safe, effective, efficient care. NHS England has identified a range of technology-enabled capabilities that will be funded, as part of a competitive bid process, to help NHS Trusts adopt relevant digital solutions for front-line nursing services.

The Silhouette solution meets the criteria for the Nursing Technology Fund in a number of capability areas:

  • Digital images for nursing care
  • Digital capture of clinical data at point-of-care
  • Real-time digital nursing dashboards
  • Remote face-to-face interaction
  • Mobile access to digital care records across the community

 

This is a unique and significant opportunity for Nursing Care Innovators to step forward and develop a vision and bid for adoption of the Silhouette digital wound assessment system and to push forward capability building and improvements in their wound management services.

The NTF2 Prospectus and application process details are due for release shortly on the NHS England website. See further information on NHS England website
