The implementation of electronic health records (EHRs) dramatically transformed how healthcare organizations track and process vital patient information.

New Charts in Property Prices Portal
I’ve just added a couple of new charts into the Property Prices Portal that I think will help you to make sense of what’s happening in the Irish Property Market.

The gap has closed a little since then, with an easing of sales and a drop back in average prices in general – but take a look on the portal to see how your area is being affected.More
