The NHS Care Records Service is a service provided by NHS Connecting for Health for the National Health Service in England.
The project describes its objectives as follows:
| “ | Patient-centred care requires information to follow the patient so that it is available wherever and whenever it is needed. The NHS Care Records Service will allow this to happen. For the first time, information about patients will be mobile – as patients are themselves – and not remain in filing stores in the buildings where treatment or care has been received. | ” |
Famous quotes containing the words care, records and/or service:
“Feeling needy—mistaking vulnerability for weakness—doesn’t fit in with our image of what being a mother is all about. If we are needy, how can we care well for a much needier baby? There is a widespread feeling that we have to do it all alone, and if we don’t know something, or can’t manage it, or, heaven forbid, don’t want to, there is something lacking in our makeup.”
—Sally Placksin (20th century)
“It’s always the generals with the bloodiest records who are the first to shout what a hell it is. And it’s always the war widows who lead the Memorial Day parades.”
—Paddy Chayefsky (1923–1981)
“Whatever events in progress shall disgust men with cities, and infuse into them the passion for country life, and country pleasures, will render a service to the whole face of this continent, and will further the most poetic of all the occupations of real life, the bringing out by art the native but hidden graces of the landscape.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
