Co-ordinating Care Workshop
Pauline HeslopAnna Marriott
Co-ordinating Care• Good co-ordination can reduce
health service inefficiencies and provide a better patient experience
• Lack of co-ordination of care across and between the different disease pathways and service providers
• This was a factor that made people more vulnerable to premature death
Problems• Systemic problems with the
organisation of services• Lack of holistic care• David’s story• Emphasis on episodic rather than
on-going care• Lack of awareness of others’ roles
Good practice
• Good communication is essential for well co-ordinated care
• Susan’s story• CLDTs and LD liaison
nurses can help with care co-ordination
Recommendations• Co-ordination of care role
enshrined and monitored in contracts across health and social care
• Named lead professional to take the healthcare coordinator role
• Co-locating CLDT nurses into primary care
The way forward?
