Sunderland Royal Hospital has become the only hospital in the north of England to be awarded the highest attainable accreditation on the EMRAM.
EMRAM, or the Electronic Medical Record Adoption Model, measures the adoption and maturity of a health facility’s EMR capabilities from 0 to 7.
The hospital, which is recognised as a Global Digital Exemplar (GDE), was awarded Stage 7 following a two day virtual assessment, by HIMSS assessors after previously achieving Stage 6 in January.
WHY IT MATTERS
The accolade means Sunderland Royal Hospital joins an elite few organisations around the world to achieve the digital standard.
