IoREs, a project launched this year by the Balearic Islands Health Service, has received the Ennova Health 2026 award in the Digital Transformation category. The system enables Health Service professionals and staff at residential centres for dependent people to work with the same electronic health record and access updated patient information in real time.
The project gives professionals a single and up-to-date view of each resident’s health and social care situation. Information that can be shared includes medical tests, hospital admission reports, consultation and follow-up records, required care and prescribed medication guidelines.
The system has required the integration of clinical information platforms used in both healthcare and residential care. Patient data can be incorporated and transmitted through NEXA, the corporate information system and interoperability platform.
Software developments at residential centres allow their systems to connect with NEXA, while an additional system enables the exchange of administrative and healthcare information. The CIVITAS population database has also been integrated to keep residents’ administrative information up to date.

Estefanía Serratusell, deputy director of Chronic Care, Health and Social Care Coordination and Rare Diseases at the Health Service, and Carmen Moreno, coordinator of the technical team for Chronic Care and Health and Social Care Coordination, collected the award at an event held in Madrid. The Ennova Health awards are presented by Diario Médico and Correo Farmacéutico.
IoREs is already being rolled out across all the islands. A total of 25 residential centres in the Balearic Islands currently have the connectivity requirements needed to share the information, giving 1,892 dependent people access to the shared electronic health record system.
Further centres will gradually join the project until it covers all 43 facilities in the public dependency care network in the Balearic Islands, representing a total of 3,567 places.
IoREs forms part of the strategy to transform social and healthcare provision into an integrated model combining both forms of care. The aim is to streamline health and social care coordination according to the needs of each user, including new care demands linked to an ageing population and an increase in chronic diseases.
The project has a budget of €1,573,579 and is financed through the Programme for Sustainability, Improved Efficiency and Equitable Access to the National Health System.
IoREs is one of the measures included in the Health Service’s Strategic Plan for Digital Health Transformation and Innovation 2025-2029. Among its objectives is ensuring interconnected and accessible health information through an interoperable, digitalised data system capable of supporting faster and more accurate diagnoses.
The project joins other initiatives within the Strategic Plan that have received awards since the plan was launched in July 2025.
The Ennova Health awards are holding their sixth edition this year and recognise digital initiatives developed by professionals, institutions and companies that have provided value, contributed to the sustainability of the system and improved patients’ lives.
