Wye Valley NHS Trust is a hospital trust where the Pharmacy department and ITU have adopted Eolas Medical for managing clinical guidelines. The platform replaced their previous knowledge management system, with the goal of providing a more user-friendly editing experience for the team responsible for maintaining the trust's antimicrobial stewardship guidelines.
The onboarding process was described as straightforward. The transition from their legacy system to Eolas Medical was motivated in part by the challenges staff had experienced completing edits in the previous system, as well as the desire to encourage wider adoption of digital guidelines among junior team members.
The standout benefit for the trust has been the improved editing experience. Guideline editors have found Eolas Medical much more straightforward to use than previous systems for creating, updating, and managing clinical content. The ease of managing and editing guidelines has been a clear positive, reducing the friction previously associated with keeping content up to date.
The team responsible for editing and managing guidelines has praised the platform's usability, noting that the streamlined editing workflow represents a significant improvement over the previous system.
"For me as an guideline editor, Eolas is much more straightforward."
The trust has identified broader access as a key area for future development, expressing a desire for guidelines to be accessible to all NHS staff regardless of their employing organisation — a feature that would particularly benefit locum staff and trainees rotating through the trust from other areas.
