Welcome to the seventh edition of the Electronic Patient Record (EPR) programme newsletter. The EPR team concluded the first round of roadshows with a visit to PRH. We had an amazing level of engagement across both sites and feel very encouraged by the positive comments we received. We were very lucky to have met so many of our wonderful Change Agents whilst out and about. In the next edition we will be focusing on business continuity plans for the Go Live weekend. Get ahead now, are your plans up to date?
