Business Wire, Nov 27, 2006
CALABASAS, Calif. -- Aspyra, Inc. (AMEX:APY) today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary Aspyra Technologies Ltd has implemented the AccessNET Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) at the Cheshire and Merseyside NHS Treatment Centre. The Cheshire and Merseyside NHS Treatment Centre is managed and operated by Interhealth Care Services (UK) Ltd, provides full diagnostic and rehab services, as well as a comprehensive outpatient service. Aspyra's AccessNET[TM] system is connected to all of the imaging modalities and staff can view patient data on either static or mobile workstations. Workflow has been enhanced by integration with the centre's Patient Administration System (PAS).
The centre, which opened on the 1st of June 2006, offers a convenient "one stop shop" service where patients can have their outpatients' consultation and diagnostic investigations in one visit. Over the next five years, approximately 5,000 procedures will be carried out each year along with 15,000 out-patient clinical assessments.
Dr. Roger Cheesman (Support Services Officer-InterHealth Care Services (UK) Ltd) stated, "We are very impressed with the speed at which Aspyra was able to implement the solution and the level and quality of support they were able to provide to us before, during and after the implementation." Stephen Ringwood (acting Head of the Radiology Department) says, "The system is very user friendly," a comment which was echoed by Philippa Boland (PACS Administrator) who added, "The Aspyra system has proven to be very reliable and the clinical workflow which has been employed makes the system very easy to manage." Shawn Larson (Product Manager - Aspyra Technologies Ltd) concluded, "Aspyra's comprehensive implementation, training and support program helps our clients to use our software to get to where they want to be. We see PACS as a means to an end, not the end itself."
