Welcome to MPFT Digital, the home of digital services for Midlands Partnership NHS Foundation Trust.

MPFT Digital's vision is to enhance care through digital innovation, with 3 ambitions that make up this vision:

  • Our service users and staff experience an NHS and social care that acts as one, working in seamless partnership with 3rd sector colleagues across all care settings through the processes we digitise
  • We connect our service users and staff to secure and reliable systems that are flexible, accessible and offer more choice in how care is accessed and delivered
  • We inform our service users and staff through data that remains private and is used and shared for the purpose of health and social care only

We hope the information contained within this section of the site will help you find out about digital within MPFT, and support you in your own use of digital technologies when engaging with our services.
