NHS Problem

HR and Workforce issues are key challenges for the NHS. It’s estimated that the NHS loses 500,000 staff hours per year due to HR issues. Another example is the estimated loss of doctors-in-training time, which amounts to at least £20 million per annum (NHS figures from OurNHSPeople). Inefficient HR processes in the NHS are not only costly but also impact staff morale and patient care. Inefficient administrative tasks can lead to overworked staff and a downstream decrease in patient care quality. 

The Solution

Pyrexia develops automated HR tools tailored for the healthcare sector. The cloud platform focuses on reducing administrative burden and improving efficiency. The suite of tools utilises AI and machine learning to streamline key HR processes like staff onboarding, scheduling, and credential management. It’s designed to be user-friendly and interoperable with existing healthcare systems, ensuring ease of integration and use. The ultimate goal is to boost the work experience of healthcare staff and enhance patient care, significantly reducing the time and effort spent on HR-related administrative tasks.
