Barnsley Hospital | North East and Yorkshire

This project addressed the supply of oxygen to patients, a critical issue during the pandemic. Oxygen treatment was key to care for patients with Covid-19, as such the demand tripled.

With surging demand & limited capacity/supply of oxygen, we required real-time data at patient level. We established a multi-disciplinary team, led by the estates team to create new systems rapidly, enabling the trust to maintain quality of patient care which was the reason we went for the COVID response award.
