Royal Adelaide Hospital goes live with Allscripts EHR solution
November 13 2017 - 4:30PM
Allscripts (NASDAQ:MDRX) is in partnership with South Australia
Health to deliver the Allscripts Sunrise™ product suite across the
state of South Australia. The latest activation occurred on
September 4 at the new flagship, 800 bed Royal Adelaide Hospital
which replaces the old hospital originally built in 1841.
The new hospital was completed in August this year and is the
latest addition to the specially designed Health Precinct which
includes the South Australia Health & Medical Research Center
and campuses for the University of Adelaide and the University of
South Australia. The hospital has 700 private rooms, 100-bed day
patient suite, 40 operating rooms, 60 ICU beds and 70 emergency
cubicles. Patient rooms are within two minutes’ walk of more than
70 courtyards, terraces and sky gardens. The site has more than
100,000 trees and plants across nine levels. The $2.3 billion
hospital, the second most expensive building in the world, will
provide care to about 85,000 inpatients and 400,000 outpatients per
annum.
The Royal Adelaide Hospital is promising to be a genuine ‘high
tech hospital of the future.’ From stainless steel high-tech robots
that can talk to lifts, doors and portable phones and carry goods
around the hospital to a pneumatic tube system that transports
specimens to 74 stations, this is one of the world’s most advanced
health facilities in the world and it is only appropriate that
Allscripts Sunrise is the hospital’s electronic health record.
Allscripts Sunrise is an integrated suite of clinical and
financial solutions used by leading hospitals and health systems in
the USA, U.K, Canada, Australia and Singapore. Sunrise is a highly
configurable solution that offers clinician-specific workflows to
help drive adoption of clinical decision support, which can lead to
improved patient outcomes.
“The activation of this wonderful new hospital was very capably
delivered in a professional manner with excellent attention to a
successful outcome,” said Allscripts Chief Executive Officer, Paul
M. Black. “I’d like to express my appreciation and congratulations
to the South Australia Health and Allscripts teams for their
effective leadership and focus in driving the successful transition
to this new, state-of-the-art hospital. The Sunrise suite will
provide South Australia Health with an even greater opportunity to
transform health care delivery through better technology to the
benefit of patients and clinicians.”
David Chambers, Allscripts Asia/Pacific Managing Director said
that Royal Adelaide Hospital offers the latest innovations across
health, education and research and has been established to offer
the highest quality of patient care to South Australians. “The
partnership between South Australia Health and Allscripts will
enable South Australia Health to continue to develop integrated
models of care for its patient population,” he said.
