Dental service introduces electronic signature technology
Date published: 18 July 2016
Pennine Care NHS Foundation Trust, which provides dental services at Whitehall Street Clinic, The Phoenix Centre and Nye Bevan House, has introduced electronic signature technology as an alternative to paper forms.
Using eSignature means that patient signatures can be captured on a device or mobile tablet and then instantly transferred onto a secure electronic patient record.
Richard Valle-Jones, Clinical Director of the Dental Directorate with Pennine Care, said: “The new system will help us deliver a more consistent forms management process and bring a new level of efficiency to our service.
“It means that the most accurate, up-to-date patient information will always be readily available to use, to help deliver quality care efficiently.”
