Nelson Marlborough District Health Board will go live with the Health Connect South clinical information portal on Monday, joining the four other South Island DHBs in providing clinicians with access to the same shared electronic patient record for hospital care for the entire South Island population.
Based on Orion Health's Consult technology and underpinned by Orion's Rhapsody integration engine, Health Connect South (HCS) is able to pull information from disparate sources, allows users to update or add information, and presents it in a single patient view. Information includes test results, allergies, x-rays, medications and previous hospital admissions.
