When outdated comms make it harder for 20,000 staff and 14,000 devices to stay connected across five hospitals, the impact is felt everywhere. That was the challenge facing Barts Health NHS Trust.
Working with Block, Barts mapped every device, migrated to the cloud, and consolidated systems into one resilient platform. The outcome? A transformation that’s measurable, tangible, and empowering.
Proof you’ll see in the infographic:
-
33.6M calls handled in a single year
-
98% reduction in connection costs
-
13.5 days saved in switchboard admin in just one month
-
300% increase in softphone users, boosting mobility and flexibility
-
Decluttering: from a roomful of hardware to just a few resilient boxes
Big numbers, real impact, better care.
