Welsh Community Care and Information System
Welsh Local Authorities and NHS Wales organisations are working in partnership towards an electronic solution – the Welsh Community Care Information System (WCCIS) – which will enable safe sharing of information and help to deliver improved care and support for people across Wales.
The WCCIS will be available to a range of services, including:
- Community nursing
- Health visiting
- Mental health
- Learning disabilities
- Substance misuse
- Complex care
- Social care therapies
- Therapies
The functionality of the WCCIS was developed and agreed by health and social care practitioners and managers. A high degree of the functionality (70%) is common across the service areas. The higher level functionality includes:
- Referrals
- Assessments
- Care planning
- Case and contact management
- Alerts and notifications
- Diaries/scheduling
- Finance
- Documentation/forms
- Access to functionality on mobile devices
- User authentication
- Access control
- Reporting
- Integration to other (specific) national systems (WCCG, WCP, EMPI, Blue Badges, Home Care Scheduler)
