The solution?

The NPfIT implementation at Morecambe Bay, where IT specialists went live with part of the NPfIT Lorenzo system, was exemplary. It was very small scale and planned on the assumption it would fail.rnMorecambe Bay is a small community: its nurses told Computer Weekly they know many of the patients or their families. They didn't want anything to go wrong. They duplicated manually everything done on Lorenzo. It was a lot of work for small gains. But it builds confidence. It is safe.rnMorecambe Bay is an example of a trust which would refuse to test the Care Records Service on patients. Just one patient who suffers as a result of an ill-tested implementation is one patient too many. Yet thousands of patients in the London area might have suffered. That's a disgrace the government and its advisers may never live down.
