## Description
NCH&C provides community-based NHS health and care via more than 70 different service locations across Norfolk, serving a population of nearly 900,000 people.
We believe that people are better looked after locally and this belief drives us to work hard to bring our expert care to patients in our seven community hospitals, within GP surgeries and in patients' own homes.
Our focus is on continually improving the quality of care we offer to local people and on improving access to that care, helping people to move seamlessly from one service to another.
To increase the quality of care provided to our patients, NCH&C are looking to enhance use of our Electronic Patient Record (EPR) system, by accessing and updating patient records in real time in our ward environments. The trust would like to consider how using mobile/agile computer on wheels systems  (COWS) will enable delivery of this vision, and are are seeking expressions of interest from qualified and capable service providers and re-sellers able to provide products that satisfy our criteria.
