Medical imaging technology and cybersecurity provider, Sectra, announced that it has been chosen by Homerton Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust to offer its fully cloud-based enterprise imaging solution. Following the announcement, Sectra will be responsible for the hardware, software, and other aspects of IT for Homerton Healthcare.
"Having our new imaging solution as a fully managed cloud service will allow us to shift the focus of our IT staff. Our team will be relieved of IT management responsibilities, which will be a significant benefit. We also expect to see clinical benefits, such as faster access to new features and new technology. Moving to a scalable cloud solution furthers our ambitions for a consolidated cloud system supporting all hospitals in our ICS (Integrated Care System) and is a vital first step towards realizing our collaboration potential in the north east London.
-Niall Canavan, Homerton Director of IT and Systems
Homerton Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust is a trusted provider of health services for communities in Hackney and surrounding London boroughs. The contract will enable Homerton Healthcare to make the most of Sectra’s cloud service for enterprise imaging.
"Sectra and Microsoft share a dedication to improving healthcare and provide high availability, performance and security. I am excited to leverage our experience of providing enterprise imaging in regional and collaborative settings to help Homerton Healthcare achieve clinical benefits, share workloads, and provide their clinicians with modern tools."
- Jane Rendall, Managing Director at Sectra, UK and Ireland.
