Announcing our new partnership with St Gemma’s Hospice

We are delighted to announce our new partnership with St Gemma’s Hospice, a leading palliative care provider.

This collaboration represents an important step towards achieving our shared commitment to delivering exceptional care, for everyone.

As a purpose-driven organisation, we are dedicated to empowering organisations with data-driven insights. Our expertise in health analytics, cloud-based data warehousing, and system configuration helps organisations make informed decisions that improve the services they offer to their communities.

As part of this partnership, we will utilise our established infrastructure to provide St Gemma’s with a flexible and scalable data platform.

Our system will integrate seamlessly with St Gemma’s existing tools, enabling real-time insights to support better, data-driven decision-making for patient care. From securely managing data storage, and transformation to delivering advanced data dashboard, we aim to create a robust, transparent, and efficient data environment.

Tony Deighton, Information Manager/Data Protection Officer at St Gemma’s Hospice, said:

“We are delighted to collaborate with Here as we transition to a new data warehouse model for all our data. This partnership marks an exciting step forward for St Gemma’s, and we are confident that together, we will generate comprehensive data insights that drive informed decision-making.”

Matthew Riley, Head of Informatics at Here, said:

“St. Gemma’s Hospice exemplifies the critical role that hospices play in our healthcare system. By embracing this work, St. Gemma’s will be able to use data to truly understand the value they bring and work more efficiently and effectively. We are proud to collaborate with such a forward-thinking organisation and look forward to working with the team.”

What sets this partnership apart is our shared values. As a social enterprise, Here focuses on building partnerships that create direct, meaningful benefits for the people seeking care.

Our collaboration with St Gemma’s will also prioritise knowledge sharing, allowing their team to upskill and grow their in-house analytics capability, ensuring the long-term success of their data-driven initiatives.

Helen Curr, CEO of Here, said:

“When we work in partnership, we seek like-minded organisations, and it is no surprise that we have started to find these in the hospice sector. We feel privileged to support the work of St Gemma’s and to share our learning in this new partnership.”
