The UKE has one of the most advanced IT infrastructures of any health care provider in Europe. Our division is responsible for maintaining IT services for the UKE and its subsidiaries – services that are integral to patient care and patient administration. As a result of growing cooperation between departments, IT services now play an increasingly significant role in the fields of teaching and research.

IT services penetrate all areas of the UKE and its procedures. Physical copies of patient folders no longer exist, and therefore it is of paramount importance that the IT system is always available, dependable and efficient.

Crucial to our success is the maintenance of a highly coordinated relationship with our users i.e. doctors, nursing staff, functional departments. To achieve this, we strive to integrate our systems as deeply as possible into daily hospital procedures.
