Organisation: King’s College Hospital
Department: Neurosurgery
Setting: Tertiary Hospital
Tool Introduced: Eolas Medical Platform
Primary Uses: Induction, guideline access, patient leaflets, departmental knowledge sharing
The Challenge
The Neurosurgery team needed a reliable, structured platform to reduce information loss and improve access to key resources like:
• Teaching materials and academic papers
• Departmental induction content and team member lists
• Antimicrobial and clinical guidelines
• Patient-facing leaflets for outpatient clinics
In a fast-paced environment with frequent new starters and a high academic workload, these resources were often poorly distributed or easily forgotten.
The Solution
Eolas Medical was introduced to centralise educational resources, guidelines, and department handbooks. The app’s intuitive layout made it particularly valuable for new staff and its integration with patient education materials (like the British Association of Spinal Surgeons leaflets) improved clinical conversations in outpatient settings.
Results and Impact
• Onboarding and education: Eolas helped ease transition for new staff, improving early confidence and familiarity with departmental operations.
• Outpatient care: Use of QR-linked patient leaflets streamlined consent and education in clinics.
• Clinical accuracy: Hosting antimicrobial guidelines within the platform improved adherence and access in clinical settings.
