Unveiling NHS's automation journey to 7,000 hours saved.

Striving to provide innovative healthcare for its local communities and 1.5 million patient engagements, Newcastle Hospital's staff was exhausted by the years of strain brought on by the pandemic. The company wanted to improve the work-life balance of their employees, while still maintaining a high level of care.

Partnering with Automation Anywhere, NHS targeted highly repetitive tasks within Human Resources. After the pilot saved 4,000 hours per year, the company scaled automating document processing across multiple departments, saving an extraordinary 7,000 hours per year and giving staff two full days to prioritize patient care.
