YH Toolkit. Health and social care providers face a tremendous challenge to provide comprehensive care and support to increasing numbers of people with complex care needs in advancing old age.

YH Toolkit

We have to start by giving people the means to look after themselves more effectively. We then need to ensure that clinical and social care expertise is available ahead of any crisis and targeted to the most vulnerable. Also ensure it is focused on prevention, avoiding hospitalisation except when that’s the right place for a person to be. Technology has transformed other parts of our lives; not by substituting for human contact but by enhancing it, and making key information available to the people I choose, when I choose and for the purposes that I choose. Redesigning care processes to make the best use of telehealth technologies is a quality and economic imperative. This Toolkit is designed to support emergent commissioners, provider organisations and individuals.

A report published by the institute today said some district nursing teams had already made significant changes to their practice as a result of new technology but others lagged behind. It acknowledged that this variation in uptake existed because some nurses were worried that devices allowing remote consultations or measurements could damage their relationships with patients, or increase their isolation. The report said: “The first, and possibly the biggest, issue is the attitudes of professionals to the adoption of new technologies, and their readiness to embrace such changes to practice.” It cited a Royal College of Nursing survey from 2010, in which 20% of 1,300 respondents thought an electronic patient record could be a “threat” to the nurse-patient relationship.
