SharePoint solution for Liverpool Women’s Hospital eases access to information
NHS Informatics Merseyside recently worked with the Liverpool Women’s NHS Foundation Trust to deliver a bespoke SharePoint solution to support document management within the maternity department.
Microsoft SharePoint is an industry-leading web-based, collaborative tool that integrates with Microsoft Office.
Liverpool Women’s had been storing policy and procedure documents on an old instance of Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 but out-of-the-box functionality alone did not provide a suitable means of keeping documents easily in date nor was it providing a convenient means of accessing documentation quickly and efficiently.
In response, a new SharePoint solution was developed which involved a client search page being created, which junior doctors and other staff could use to search for policies and procedures, and an administration portal for uploading to and monitoring the underlying document library.
