Child health support organisation Plunket has officially gone live with its new cloud-based electronic Plunket Health Record (ePHR) application, which has been built on Microsoft technologies and will eventually be deployed on around 800 Windows tablets to clinical nurses across New Zealand.
The app will replace the paper-based processes familiar to generations of New Zealand families. Nine out of every 10 newborns are seen by a Plunket nurse, accounting for between 50,000 and 60,000 babies every year.
