Infinity releases new app features to drive hospital team productivity
The next release of the Infinity mobile app has been introduced, helping NHS staff to coordinate patient care and collaborate more easily within and across multidisciplinary teams. Following rigorous testing, the refreshed app allows healthcare professionals to be more efficient by using a smarter platform.
Clinical and operational NHS staff use Infinity to create, assign and track tasks on a shared platform and have total visibility of their teams’ activities. A task is an activity that needs to be done for a patient, and incorporates the action to be carried out, for whom it needs to be done, by whom, by when, and the degree of urgency.
The Infinity app allows healthcare professionals to view and prioritise their task list, with all information up-to-date and in one place. The app has been redesigned to be more intuitive, make it easier for staff to edit tasks, and provide greater team functions.
The original Infinity app was developed in 2022 and as the number of people using the platform has grown, Infinity Health invited user feedback to ensure it meets modern healthcare challenges.
Infinity allows users to:
Accept tasks, mark their progress, and edit details such as title, description, start and end date, add/remove tags, and reassign to people
Set status to available or unavailable, individually and within a team, and enable/disable push notifications
Apply custom filters to help prioritise tasks
Have a clearer view of new/unread notifications and view task details in notifications
Track their team’s activity on a live dashboard
“Last year, Infinity helped the NHS coordinate over 200,000 patient cases and two million tasks. Every staff member should have access to a tool to manage their workload and coordinate care, reducing the burden of pagers, spreadsheets and meetings, and increasing their time and capacity to see more patients.
“Launching this slicker, more intuitive version of Infinity, based on user feedback, gives Infinity users greater options to action, track and prioritise tasks, individually and as part of various teams. We hope it will go some way to supporting NHS staff struggling with increased workload and burnout.”
The app is now live on Apple iOS and available for customers via a new update. Infinity for Android is coming soon.
