The Trust also provides extensive community health services to people in Oxfordshire.
Oxford Health is comprised of more than 6,200 staff working out of 170 locations. At any time the Trust is treating in the region of 130,000 patients. In the last year there have been more than 1.2 million patient appointments completed, 30% of these took place in the patient’s home.
Oxford Health works in partnership with other organisations: with the University of Oxford to promote innovation in healthcare and to train doctors and psychologists; with Oxford Brookes University and the University of Bedfordshire and Thames Valley to train nurses and allied health professionals; with GPs, local acute hospitals, local authorities and voluntary organisations to provide joined up care.

Oxford Health’s vision is for ‘outstanding care delivered by outstanding people’. Further information about Oxford Health can be found at: www.oxfordhealth.nhs.uk/
The Next Generation EHR Project:
The Next Generation EHR Project is a major change project with a number of service improvement and technical components. The EHR will relate to potentially every part of the Trust’s operations. As such, it must be highly effective and usable beyond current systems, boundaries and processes. The new solution must address the challenges of the future and solve the frustrations of the present, whilst maintaining the flexibility, mobility and ease of use commonly associated with paper.
Over 8,000 smartcard users are currently active within the Trust, reflecting the existing health record system user base. The change required to deliver a successful next generation EHR will be far reaching. Success will rely on gathering the experience and knowledge of many clinical and managerial staff that currently use systems, use this valuable resource to envision a better way of delivering care, and work jointly with the successful supplier to create the next generation EHR.
The project must deliver this next generation EHR to all services, by the Summer of 2015, to ensure timely exit from the current system contract.
Estimated value excluding VAT:
Range: between 50 000 and 400 000 GBP
