Digital Social Care Records

Is your Assured Digital Social Care Record Solution accessing GP Connect?

GP Connect - NHS England Digital

With GP Connect, authorised care staff can access important parts of a client’s GP record directly through the Assured Digital Social Care Record (DSCR) system. This includes;

• Last 3 encounters of interaction with professionals at the GP, including any summary information if this has been added to the record.
• Details of current and previous medications
• Information on allergies and adverse reactions
• Active concerns and medical history
• Immunisation record
• Test results and referrals (Read only where available)

Having this information at your fingertips can support you in planning and delivering care more effectively. It reduces the time spent chasing information, such as changes in a person’s care regimen.  It supports better co-ordination and communication between care providers, GPs and health professionals which in turn can help with smoother admissions and swifter hospital discharges.

GP Connect is free to use, and already available via all of the Assured DSCRs. Once set up there’s no extra work needed from the GP practice, it’s seamless.

To get connected, simply contact your DSCR supplier, who will guide you through the process of enabling GP Connect at your location.
