"We have been using Medisec in our Department for approximately ten years. It initially helped us to reduce our dictation workload and speed our discharge letter output. With increasing pressure on us in secondary care to provide rapid information after discharge or clinic appointments, it will be the kingpin in our efforts to do so. Medisec is an excellent system which I would recommend without hesitation."
Professor Paul Edwards,
Consultant General and Vascualr Surgeon,
Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust
"Healthcare professionals and GPs need as much detailed information about patients as possible to offer the best quality of care. We've developed the most comprehensive [stroke] template possible to make sure that GPs get the right information; the Medisec software then makes sure they get it in the right format and at the right time."
Dr Ganesh Subramanian,
Consultant Stroke Physician,
Central Manchester University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
"Medisec has been hugely beneficial in improving patient care and also the day-to-day working lives of secretarial and medical staff in the Countess of Chester Hospital. The secretaries are completely sold on the system and wonder how they managed in the past. Medical staff, likewise, use it on an everyday basis and are able to instantly access letters without the need to obtain case notes. This has major benefits, eg while speaking on the phone to patients and GPs, to put results in context and to get the background on emergency admissions, pending arrival of the case notes. It has also revolutionised our communication with GPs."
Dr Richard Worth,
Consultant Physician in Diabetes/Endocrinology,
Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust
“Medisec tells me how many letters I have pending to approve and lets me check and sign
them off electronically from any of the three hospital sites where I work. Now I can dictate a
letter in one clinic in the morning and approve it in the afternoon from another site. As soon as I authorise a letter, before a patient has even left the clinic, the surgeries are able to access it, regardless of the system they use, as it just drops into their inbox.”
