Hospice network solutions for the cloud era.
Digital transformation
In the hospice care sector, where the primary focus is to provide comfort and dignity to patients in their final stages of life, technology plays a crucial yet often overlooked role. A robust IT infrastructure is essential for delivering high-quality services, ensuring that health providers have the time and resource to focus on care delivery.
The digital landscape in healthcare is evolving rapidly, and hospices are not exempt from this transformation. As more services shift to digital platforms, the need for seamless, secure connectivity becomes even more crucial to delivering compassionate, high-quality care to patients and families.
Cloud-first networking for hospices
Hospices, like many healthcare providers, are increasingly adopting cloud solutions to benefit from increased cost-efficiency, flexibility, and scalability. This shift aligns with the government's Cloud First policy, which encourages public sector organisations to prioritise cloud solutions for their technology needs.
Essential HSCN services for hospice care
However, much work remains to be done. Many essential services that hospices rely on, such as EMIS, SystmOne, NHS Mail, and GP Connect, still require a Health & Social Care Network (HSCN) connection for secure access. This means hospices need to integrate various connectivity methods and ensure their network infrastructure can support these services, while maintaining the highest standards of data security and patient care.
As an HSCN accredited provider, we understand the unique networking challenges faced by hospice organisations and provide compliant, secure access to critical NHS systems.

HOSPICE CARE FAQS
Answering your FAQs on hospice care networks
The cloud is quickly becoming as an essential element in the hospice ecosystem, and is used for a range of purposes including data storage and application hosting.
Leveraging the cloud as a centralised record repository empowers hospice professionals with a unified source of truth to access patient information, including their history and available care pathways.
In a hospice setting, network reliability is critical. Uninterrupted access for sites and users to reach EPRs and NHS applications ensures that providers can make informed decisions quickly and efficiently.
Network downtime, latency problems, or connectivity failures can lead to delays in care coordination, potentially affecting patient outcomes and family communication during critical moments.
In any healthcare setting, protecting patient data is paramount, and hospices are no exception. Given the sensitive nature of end-of-life care, hospices have a legal duty to maintain confidentiality over the patient information they hold and process.
The risk of nation-state cyber attacks continues to rise, and the adoption of new technologies is widening the potential attack surface. As a result, IT outages are expected to increase in frequency. Hospices must protect patient data during this turbulent period.
