The Nervecentre Electronic Patient Record (EPR) is coming to NUH
Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH) is excited to announce the official launch of a new electronic patient record (EPR) system over the weekend of 31 October 2025 to 2 November. This will be a major step forward in transforming the way we deliver and manage patient care, and this change will positively impact services across NUH.
We already use Nervecentre within many of our clinical and operational services at NUH to deliver patient care. However, Nervecentre EPR is a 10-year journey that will allow us to significantly enhance the way in which care is delivered to our patients, as well as improving our administrative processes by introducing new technology and opportunities for development.
Our new EPR – Nervecentre - will benefit both staff and patients thanks to:
- Seamless access to patient data across departments.
- Improved coordination of care, supporting decision making leading to better outcomes.
- Smarter use of data and technology allowing us to spend less time on paperwork and more time caring for patients.
- Improving quality and cost effectiveness of patient care.
As we move into 2026, we will start to introduce further functions on Nervecentre such as the Patient Centre module which allows patients to get more involved in their own care using digital tools. More information on this will be shared in due course.
This move to Nervecentre marks a significant milestone in NUH’s digital transformation journey and will support us in our plans to use digital, data and technology to enhance the work that we do at NUH. This is a 10-year partnership with Nervecentre and we look forward to working with them to build on our EPR system.
