Home › Staff › Role: External Stakeholders & System Partners

As we develop more communications for our external partners, including primary care, community services, social care and other colleagues in health and care, we’ll add it to this page.

Our EPR doesn’t just change things inside our trusts. It may change how information moves between us and our partners.

Partners will get advance notice ahead of major milestones, especially go-live, so you have time to plan your own response. You’ll also have a named contact rather than a general update sent to everyone. This reflects how we already work together, through briefings, governance forums and direct correspondence.

We’ll keep you informed as we approach go-live, and we’ll work with you to manage any impact on shared pathways and processes between our organisations.

External Stakeholders & System Partners FAQs

  • What is Huron's role?

    Huron Consulting Services UK joined as delivery partner in May 2026. They are working alongside the programme team to design, build and configure the MEDITECH Expanse system for use across all three trusts. Hunter Healthcare is part of the Huron team.

  • I work bank or agency, or I'm a rotating doctor. Will I be trained?

    The programme knows staffing changes, rotations and agency use create training needs at different times, and the plan is being built to accommodate that. The aim is that anyone using the EPR is trained before they use it. Specific arrangements will be confirmed and shared.
