Work to create a useful GP Triage large poster to display Clinics available.

Also below is the recent email sent to GP Triagers:

Dear Triagers,

Emma, a few reviewers and I have been working on the local view of the
Map of Medicine to start to collate the local referral guidelines and
documents.
This is a PBC idea to use the Map, instead of creating a separate website of referral guidelines.

I am not sure how  much you all know about the Map of Medicine (see attachments).

There is now something to see and test.
We have created a section called
Brighton GPs - Quick referral Guide
This contains locally created pages with much of the guidance we have so far.
We are interested in testing what we have produced so far for:

• Content
• Usability

The link is http://mom.sou.ncrs.nhs.uk/
You need to be on an NHS computer (nww) for this to work (next year it should be available on the www).
Username and password are the same "C-Sussex" (case sensitive).

More Pathways are being drafted in the background.

For example the Dermatology in Brighton page is being redesigned as a Service map as this becomes clearer.
(Brighton GPs - Quick referral Guide>>Medicine-Brighton>>Dermatology - Brighton)
So please take a look as all suggestions are welcomed.

The rest of the Map sections contains the 400 Evidence-Based National Pathways.
You may find looking through these useful too.

Some pages in the Brighton GPs  section are repositories of forms (2
Week Rules, Prior Approvals, etc), others are guidance or service maps.

Each box on a page is called a Node, and these have info in them represented as a circle with a letter in it.
i - Quick info, or
L - Local Administrative Info
Click these symbols to open the info box to the right.

Please use the Feedback button on each page, so we can collect your responses.

Once we have ironed out the creases in response to your feedback, we will have a general rollout to clinicians in Primary Care.
However, this is a chance for us to test and adjust the work so far.
I'm sure many pages will need some adjustments, but we're at the stage where we could really use your feedback.

There are attached 2 documents:

• A quick reference guide on how to use the Map of Medicine, and
• one of the Map of Medicine Brochures giving a description/background.

(This
should explain some of the differences between Local Admin info and
Clinical localisation, also referral form nodes have not been activated
on our view, so we a linking to them.)

This is a lot of info to transmit via email, but it will be useful to
see how intuitive it is to use, or whether we need a more formal intro.

Also let us know if you want to contribute in a particular area.

Best wishes,
Darren
