Connecting People - Improving Health
The European Centre for Connected Health, launched by the Minister for Health, Michael McGimpsey on 22.1.08, has been established to promote improvements in patient care through the use of technology in health and social care and to fast track new products and innovation in the health and social services. While the Centre will have a Europe-wide focus, it will build momentum initially by focusing on the Health and Social Care system in Northern Ireland.
The primary purpose of the Centre is to improve the patient and client experience, providing for better quality and more effective care. By supporting the more efficient delivery of health and care services, it will also enable the care system to better respond to the future needs of the population. In addition to this, the Centre wishes to work to secure economic gains through the growth of knowledge-based, high value added businesses in Northern Ireland serving European markets.
