Paul Brockbank, Business Development Director at Cambric Systems Ltd, explains how Cambric is empowering NHS operations by providing affordable, integrated, and offline-first software tailored for clinicians, ensuring they have the tools they need to deliver better care
Empowering the NHS clinicians to deliver connected, patient-centred care
For over three decades, Cambric has partnered with the NHS to deliver software that works where and how clinicians need it. Founded on a belief that technology should serve care delivery, not complicate it, Cambric is a trusted supplier of powerful, intuitive, and affordable software systems across the UK’s healthcare landscape.
Cambric’s approach is simple but rare: Close collaboration with clinical teams to build tools that fit seamlessly into real-world workflows. This is not development at arm’s length; it’s co-creation with those on the front lines of care.
With an expanding presence in Scotland, Cambric is now growing its partnerships across the UK, bringing its proven, integrated, user-focused EPR (Electronic Patient Record) platform, Morse, to a broader NHS audience.
Simplicity that works – anywhere, anytime
Morse is engineered with two critical principles: Mobile-first and offline-first. It delivers the same powerful functionality whether accessed in a clinic, at a patient’s home, on the go, or on the ward. Its consistent and responsive interface supports care anywhere, ensuring clinicians can focus on patients.
Unlike many healthcare IT systems, Morse feels intuitive. Its simplicity is a strength. Built hand-in-hand with the professionals who use it, Morse prioritises the user experience. Everything else is a by- product of that interaction: structured data, detailed reporting, system integrations, and operational insight.
A responsive, human approach to software delivery
What sets Cambric apart is its technology and how it’s delivered. As a compact, specialist team, Cambric offers agility and responsiveness. Customers are never passed through layers of account management. Instead, they work directly with knowledgeable, committed people who know the systems inside out.
This focused delivery model means faster feedback loops, quicker iteration, and more meaningful relationships with partners. Development is guided by those who use the tools, with changes and enhancements made in close conversation, not in isolation. Cambric’s customers consistently highlight this personal touch as one of the company’s greatest strengths.
Tools that reflect real NHS priorities
Cambric’s solutions align with national and devolved digital health strategies, including NHS England’s What Good Looks Like, A Healthier Wales: our Plan for Health and Social Care and Scotland’s Digital Health and Care Strategy, showcasing a transformative approach to enhancing healthcare delivery and improving patient outcomes. Morse directly supports:
- Better data sharing across services;
- Integrated care and multidisciplinary team working;
- Mobile access to health records, even in remote or rural settings;
- Reduced clinician admin burden through smart automation; and
- Improved outcomes through structured data and informed decision-making. Cambric’s solutions are designed to evolve alongside national priorities and support the NHS’s shift from reactive to preventative, data-driven care. Morse doesn’t just capture data, it captures the right data. By structuring clinical inputs, it unlocks insights for population health programmes, predictive modelling, AI-driven planning, and large-scale research. This makes previously unavailable data accessible and usable, supporting more targeted care, earlier interventions, and system-wide improvement.
Delivering public sector value through proven NHS partnerships
Cambric’s long-standing collaboration with the NHS demonstrates its commitment to successful public sector technology delivery.
Deployed across nine NHS health boards and used by over 16,000 clinical staff, Morse is helping deliver care to more than half of Scotland’s population. Organisations such as NHS Dumfries & Galloway and NHS Fife report transformative results:
- £730,000 saved annually at one site through time efficiencies;
- 34,000 clinical hours freed, redirected back into patient care; and
- Real-time admission alerts, preventing wasted visits and improving coordination.
Cambric’s technology has become a vital enabler of care in the community, helping NHS organisations meet their goals while managing resource constraints and rising demand.
Built for the NHS.
