Two useful opportunities to help shape the forthcoming digital transformation for social care

Digital Social Care Record Minimum Operational Data Set Workshop – 28th November, 10:00-11:30

The NHS Transformation Directorate are developing the Digital Social Care Record (DSCR) Minimum Operational Data Set (MODS). This data set is a list of what information should be required in a Digital Social Care Record/Electronic Care Plan. The primary objective of the MODS is to ensure consistent baseline data is collected across the adult social care sector. The dataset should reflect regulatory requirements, facilitate increased capability for information sharing between health and adult social care systems and be the start of aligning the core information needed to deliver improved care.  To ensure that it is usable in a real-world context, the project team are consulting with people delivering care services in England. Register here

Adult Social Care Terminology Product Webinar – 29th November, 15:00-16:30

NHS Transformation Directorate have now published the Digital Social Care Data Catalogue alpha. This programme is focussed on developing a suite of adult social care terminology products that will enable local authorities, adult social care providers, and people and their families to share information quickly, easily and safely.  The Catalogue will become a national “home” for adult social care data standards, where new and existing standards can be consolidated and published and where the community can discover and contribute to data best practice.  Join this webinar to review the latest release of the Data Catalogue Tool. You can provide feedback on the tool, terminology and technical standards via the Feedback area. Register here
