TELECARE DEFINITION
Telecare is the delivery of health and social care services to people in their own homes using a combination of sensor and information and communication technologies (ICT).

TELECARE – The Challenge• Limited mainstream telecare in England as yet, no
joint commissioning – telecare not provided as a ‘care option’.
• Single assessment still a vision rather than a reality in many areas – telecare not in the current summary record for SAP
• 150 SSDs, 152 PCTs, 238 DCs, housing assns, alarm providers would need to be involved in assessment and care planning utilising SAP/CAF with information sharing
![Page 11: TELECARE – A NEW MODEL OF MANAGING CHRONIC DISEASE](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052510/568146b2550346895db3cefe/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
TELECARE – The Challenge
Common Assessment Framework (CAF)– Based on SAP– Health & Social Care delivery– Tools needed to include Telecare assessments– For all client groups
![Page 12: TELECARE – A NEW MODEL OF MANAGING CHRONIC DISEASE](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052510/568146b2550346895db3cefe/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
TELECARE – The Challenge
• Some processes could be lengthy – project managers, ethics, charging, procurement, agreements, training, information sharing protocols etc – need to start NOW
• Paper systems too complex for SAP – must use IT to aid the integration of care
• Timely accurate information flow essential• Lack of clarity over what are the ‘assessed needs’
that can be addressed with telecare – do we have the evidence?

CORE PROCESSES FOR CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT
• Involve the patient and customise for their needs• Easy access• Manage populations through integrated databases –
screen and risk manage• Develop robust networks between: - patients (support groups) - patients and professionals (communities of care) - professionals (communities of practice)
![Page 15: TELECARE – A NEW MODEL OF MANAGING CHRONIC DISEASE](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052510/568146b2550346895db3cefe/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
CORE PROCESSES FOR CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT
• Training and development for patients and professionals
• Develop expert systems:
- expert patients
- expert professionals
- expert ICT with protocols, guidelines etc that develops shared knowledge
• Clinical governance that depends on good evaluation and the ability to track the patient in the system

THE PARKINSON’S DISEASE SUPPORT NETWORK
New Electronic Support Network for People with Parkinson’s Disease
• A collection of linked websites, or “virtual communities” to help patients, their families and healthcare professionals to support sufferers of Parkinson’s Disease
![Page 18: TELECARE – A NEW MODEL OF MANAGING CHRONIC DISEASE](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052510/568146b2550346895db3cefe/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The Workload
• Caseload of c.800 patients with approximately six new patients registered each month.
• In the year ending April 2006, the two nurse specialists made over 950 home visits and received over 3,000 phone calls from patients.
• Out-patient clinics 1-2 weekly with the Consultant Specialist and GPwSI
• Since 2003 there has been a sharp rise in patients seen in both in- and out-patient departments.
![Page 19: TELECARE – A NEW MODEL OF MANAGING CHRONIC DISEASE](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052510/568146b2550346895db3cefe/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Objectives of the PDSN
• To assist in the management of the workload
• To provide patients quicker access to information and assistance
• To provide patient links to their healthcare professionals
• To link healthcare professionals to one another
![Page 20: TELECARE – A NEW MODEL OF MANAGING CHRONIC DISEASE](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052510/568146b2550346895db3cefe/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Features of the Website
• Bulletin Board (Local events, service update, PD in the news)
• Discussion Forum (topic specific discussion between patients)
• Health enquiries (general health questions from patients)
• My PD Nurse (secure area for personal communication between patient and professional)
• Professional Site (secure communication between PD specialists)

Pilot Phase
• Launched September 2004
• Evaluated April 2005 – April 2006
• 50 patients and carers with own PC registered as users
• 20 health professional registered as users
![Page 23: TELECARE – A NEW MODEL OF MANAGING CHRONIC DISEASE](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052510/568146b2550346895db3cefe/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Evaluation
Impact on:– Patients and carers– Health professionals– PD Society policy implementation– NHS Policy implementation
![Page 24: TELECARE – A NEW MODEL OF MANAGING CHRONIC DISEASE](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052510/568146b2550346895db3cefe/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Patients and Carers
• Monthly use of the site has stabilised at around seven hits and six pages per person
• ‘I am grateful for this service, it makes me feel that I have a contact close at hand and gives me information as and when I need it. I hope it continues. Thank you for asking me to take part.’
• ‘The website is just fantastic – so easy to use and has answered lots of questions. I will certainly be using it a lot in the future.’
![Page 25: TELECARE – A NEW MODEL OF MANAGING CHRONIC DISEASE](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052510/568146b2550346895db3cefe/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Healthcare Professionals
• Professionals found that their communication with patients is easier and quicker as the patients have a better understanding of their condition and treatment goals, saving time during clinic sessions.
• Phone contact minutes for a five month period before and after PDSN was established show it is possible that a 21% saving in contact costs could be achieved over a year.
![Page 26: TELECARE – A NEW MODEL OF MANAGING CHRONIC DISEASE](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052510/568146b2550346895db3cefe/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Implementation Challenges• Scaling up the service would require dedicated time to train
and register patients and professionals on to the system.• The system needs to be kept alive for patients with prompt
responses to questions and by regularly updating the bulletin board.
• Further work is required to demonstrate the benefits of PDSN to healthcare professionals to improve the assimilation into mainstream.
• There will be a requirement to investigate other delivery modalities and funding for home equipment through the local budget for assistive technology.

Implementation Challenges
• PDSN platform is in place– Database now required for PD patients
• Frailty registers for other chronic disease management groups could follow
• Medication compliance project is being planned and could be appropriate for all client groups

CONCLUSIONS• Major Service Redesign• Whole System Integrated Approach• For Primary and Secondary Care now read Generalist and
Specialist Care• Use the IT Agenda as a catalyst for change• Single Assessment Process to mainstream Telecare• Telecare enhances delivery – it is an adjunct to the system not a
substitute for care and hands-on delivery • Cross Organisational Workflow and Workforce required• Managing the Risk is essential• Clinical involvement in the Change Management Agenda is
imperative• Patient and Carers need to be part of the team• Accuracy of Data essential• Win Win
