Epro includes a specialist Discharge Summary module designed to eliminate unnecessary delays in production of TTOs (drugs to take home). This module was developed in conjunction with West Suffolk Hospital, and includes full support for recording of drugs, plus integration with pharmacy to support the clinical processes around checking, tracking and dispensing of TTOs.

Discharge summary templates ensure that all required data for the discharge summary is included by autopopulation of the appropriate fields with accurate patient details e.g. demographics, diagnoses and drug data, for timely forwarding on to the GP.
