Hands-Free Computing is the leading provider of speech recognition systems to the NHS.
With more than a decade of experience working within the health service, we understand the pressure to meet targets and reduce waiting times - and it’s here that speech recognition has been proven to be an incredibly powerful tool.

Specialist Vocabularies
Hands-Free is rightly proud of its specialist volcabularies, many of which have been created by our inhouse technicians. These are available for a variety of disiplines. They contain all the words related to your area of specialism.
"I have been using voice recognition for 4 years - I simply cannot do my work without it. There is a greatly enhanced safety aspect when compared to old days of reporting. The pathology request form, the slide and a ready report on the computer screen are all with you at the time of reporting. No other method gives you all three at the same time. Time taken to deal with individual cases is certainly shorter, there is no need to edit and revisit on a later date"
