Description

The ICB's Continuing Healthcare (CHC) team assess some of the most complex and vulnerable patients in our community. The needs have arisen because of disability, accident, or illness so it is vital that cases are assessed, reviewed, and managed in a timely manner. The purpose of the digitalisation of the assessment process is to improve patient and family experience by: - driving increased productivity; and - speed in decision making. A new digital end-to-end patient management system will provide NHS Somerset ICB with an opportunity to develop, improve, advance, and refresh the current ways of working as well as providing a new CHC model that provides optimal patient outcomes and experience through an innovative digital approach. A 'Digitalised CHC End-to-End Patient System', where information seamlessly flows between processes that will eliminate ongoing challenges with duplication and interoperability by connecting the entire CHC lifecycle into one platform. This system would need to support integration by the inclusion of other business functions and other patient cohorts from within NHS Somerset ICB. This includes a system that could be used by the Children's Continuing Care, Mental Health, and Safeguarding Teams in NHS Somerset; ideally, we would like a system to be optimised for their requirement.
