“Regardless of digital transformation in the NHS, over 85% of Clinicians are still noting their tasks down on scrap pieces of paper or Excel/word handover sheets to remember, prioritise and manage their workload. Despite strenuous efforts from clinical teams, this inefficient process is time-consuming, risks data security breaches and safe clinical task delivery relies heavily on the stretched cognitive capabilities of a burnt-out workforce.
Founded by two NHS clinicians, The Lister platform enables the MDT to handover and record their clinical tasks digitally using an intuitive and hyper-optimised user interface, obtaining real-time task data and providing unique operational, governance and workforce insights.
Lister is currently undergoing real-world validation through various pilots and is excited to be part of the Leeds innovation community.”
