💙 Supporting our prostate cancer patients with new technology!

Our Nurse Specialist Helen and patient Jonathan have been helping us introduce a brand new automated service designed to make life a little easier for people after prostate cancer treatment.

📱 Patients can now receive their PSA results by text, thanks to Robotic Process Automation — meaning no need to attend a clinic appointment just to get results if they’re in that person’s normal range.

This change:
✨ Reduces waiting and worry
✨ Helps detect rising PSA levels earlier
✨ Frees up clinic time

Where a result is not within normal range, these are flagged by the RPA to the clinical team for review.

We're proud to bring this innovation to our patients — made possible through Innovation funding from NHS West Yorkshire and Harrogate Cancer Alliance

A huge thank you to everyone involved! 💙
