We’re very grateful to Richard Meddings and the teams from @econsult_thinks and @HurleyGroup for taking the time to come and see us. Driving positive changes and innovations within the urgent and emergency care pathway. @NHSHomerton @NHSEngland @NHSEnglandLDN @murrayellender

[Dr Murray Ellender @murrayellender]

It was a pleasure to host Richard Meddings - the Chair of @NHSEngland - today.
We showed him digital triage at the @EDHomerton
Then the power of @econsult_thinks in general practice.
As well as some of the other innovations that have emerged from @HurleyGroup

[eConsult @econsult_thinks]

Good to see sites using eConsult Health's digital triage platform for A&Es with below-average wait times, including @EDHomerton

eTriage auto checks in and triages patients based on clinical acuity so the right patients can be seen by the right clinician at the right time.

[Dr Murray Ellender @murrayellender]

Saturday night session at our Urgent Treatment Centre in Bexley.
Patients checking in on the @econsult_thinks iPads.
No queues. Calm waiting room.
Detail (and priority score) straight into Adastra (the electronic health record here).
Works a treat.

[eConsult @econsult_thinks]

"As patients book themselves in, #eTriage gives them a priority score between 1 and 5. Pretty much instantly we know how much risk – how many high priority, sick patients – are sitting in our waiting room." See how to take the guesswork out of triage.

So @rvautrey has been somewhat of a fixture throughout my career as a medical journalist. Always polite, kind, and patient, he never made a young, inexperienced reporter feel stupid (although I'm sure I asked stupid questions) rather he explained things clearly and succinctly.

This is James O'Brien's furious reaction to Sajid Javid's 'league table' to push GPs to do more face-to-face consultations.

Lesson for life-
“To give real service you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity,honesty,loyalty humility and integrity.
Allow yourself to be who you were meant to be, instead of what others say you should be.”
Good😊morning 🌹

General practice – we were never closed. https://t.co/sjGayGuES5 via @AbbieSBrooks

Brilliant piece - thank you!!
Take a few mins to pause and read.
And thanks @DrSimonHodes for passing it on.

"There isn’t a “one size fits all” model of access to general practice" - exactly 👏
