Driving digital change in health and care
PRSB is dedicated to the development and implementation of health and care information standards.
By using digital standards in health and care IT systems, vital information can be accessed by the right people, in the right place, at the right time.
How can standards benefit you?
People and
carers
If your care provider uses standards in their systems they can record your information consistently and safely with the right people, at the right time.
Health and care professionals
Using PRSB standards in your IT systems will reduce time consuming admin and duplication, enabling you to deliver high quality care.
System
suppliers
Aligning to nationally agreed information standards will support the delivery of cutting-edge health tech solutions for the NHS.
Health and
care providers
Share accurate, standardised clinical information and coded data across all your services for streamlined care.
Transforming digital information sharing
Our standards demonstrate our commitment to harnessing the power of data sharing to improve patient outcomes.
Find out more about where we are making an impact.
Better records for diabetes care
Standards are instrumental in improving diabetes care management. The Diabetes Record Information Standard supports a person’s self-management of diabetes by making sure that the right information is sent to the right professional.
Transferring care between services
Our standard for discharge summaries can streamline the process of transferring patients from hospital back to the care of their GP and local community services, ensuring safe and seamless care.
Supporting social care
PRSB’s About Me Standard enables people to share information that matters to them with professionals, improving their care experience and ensuring that information is consistently captured between health and social care services.
Closing the gap between potential and practice
Standards are only useful when they are used. We have created implementation toolkits to support health and care professionals, transformation leads and digital specialists to adopt them in their systems and drive change towards more digitised and integrated care.
Our members are our strength
Partnering for progress
The PRSB Standards Partnership Scheme connects IT system suppliers and commercial organisations with the PRSB to accelerate the implementation of standards.
The scheme is supported by system leaders in the NHS and social care and offers standards conformance assessment led by experienced PRSB clinical advisors.
