Person-centred Records is a research project collaboration between NHS Grampian and Scotland’s Digital Health & Care Institute (DHI) running from April 2019 till April 2020.

NHS Grampian has committed to the implementation of in-patient electronic record keeping in order to provide a safer and more effective service for patients admitted to their hospitals. The Glasgow School of Art (GSA), as partners in the DHI, and NHS Grampian are collaborating across a year-long programme of work, and employing design innovation methodologies, to ensure that recommended solutions are achieved with the person, both patients and professionals, at the centre.

The GSA is working with NHS Grampian hospital staff across all disciplines to design a single, person-centred, multi-disciplinary, electronic record that will follow the patient on their journey from admission to discharge.
