Abstract

Moorfields Eye Hospital use excel spreadsheets to record patient information and update their appointment schedules. This is inefficient - ocularists and admin staff have to navigate and modify across several different spreadsheets in order to perform simple actions such as book in appointments.

Our workflow management web app was designed to eradicate the frictions with the current system, we believe that this system will help ocularists better prioritise their time on what they do best, allowing them to spend less time on tedious admin work and more time consulting patients and creating ocular prosthetics.

We provide a simple user interface that intuitively displays information. It is easy to navigate the patients and appointments, with the ability to filter and search by a variety of factors. Ocularists can view their own and their colleagues rotas at the click of a button, with expanding windows if they desire to see more information. The system automatically fills new appointments into the ocularists rotas.

By simplifying the admin work, this app reduces the time spent on tedious tasks and gives ocularists more time to do what they do best!
