Clinical media, sorted. Galerie app for NHS Trusts  

Find out how NHS Trusts are using the Galerie app for secure, simple and connected clinical photo sharing. 

Clinical photography is a vital part of modern patient care. But for many NHS Trusts, it can still be a disconnected process. 

Clinical photos need to be taken and accessed 24/7, but often department services are limited to regular office hours. Trusts must also ensure they have full ownership, proper consent and compliance regulations for all patient media. 

Add in a connection to the NHS Spine, and there’s a long list of requirements for one app to solve!

Why NHS Trusts need a solution

  • Images can often be trapped on devices or in inboxes.
  • This can then lead to unclear ownership and consent.
  • Disconnected systems and solutions can lead to delayed decisions for patient care.

Galerie in action with Lewisham & Greenwich NHS Trust 

The Galerie app, created in partnership with Lewisham & Greenwich NHS Trust, is the first solution to solve this clinical media sharing challenge. 

The goal? Replace disconnected photo capture and sharing with a secure, scalable application. 

The application has helped speed up patient care coordination (especially during field visit appointments), and ensures that clinicians have accurate, up-to-date information to provide the best standard of care for their patients. 

How does Galerie help NHS Trusts?

Powered by Microsoft technology, the Galerie application is designed to make clinical photography safer, simpler and more joined-up across NHS teams. 

Governance is at the heart of the app, so you’ll always have control over how long media is stored and how it’s managed. 

Clinicians can add notes to images when they’re uploaded, and other colleagues are able annotate them. That means care reviews are smoother and everyone can keep track of conditions and care over time.   

Patients receive faster care as the right people can access the right information with ease, helping to speed up decisions that matter.   

Media is kept within the Trust if a clinician leaves, ensuring images are retained safely and avoiding shadow copies or lost data. 

Admin and risk is reduced as photos are no longer left on phones or buried in inboxes, making things simpler, more secure and more compliant for your team.
