This and other problems happen in all areas of the NHS whenever the network goes down depending upon how digital they have become.
We have no backup in the instance that the network goes down and the majority of people’s work grinds to a halt, or is significantly limited, less accurate and potentially more risky.
You have no access to anything, no access to notes as no paper records anymore, no access to GP records, phones go down as using IP telephone, electronic prescribing system prints out a slew of paper charts which nurses have never used before provided that doesn’t fail also, no access to pathology results, etc etc.
