children's health digital strategy 2016 - an introduction
TRANSCRIPT
www.england.nhs.uk
What is the Digital Strategy? • A roadmap which explores the options for transforming the way
children’s health information is gathered and used over the next 5
years.
• Currently child health information services (CHIS) comprise:
Child Health Record Departments (CHRDs)
Child Health Information Service Systems (CHISS)
Personal Child Health Records (PCHR or ‘red book’)
• Child health information services liaise across care settings and
agencies and regions to ensure that children and young people in
their local population are offered the universal services available –
the ‘Healthy Child Programme’ – and that key information on
children’s health is available to parents and professionals and for
public health purposes.

Strategy aim: Appropriate access to child
health information for all involved in the
care of children
www.england.nhs.uk
Why a new digital strategy now? • In recent years there has been a new emphasis on ways of
improving children’s health:
Focusing on the importance of early interventions and preventive measures in improving health
The idea of proportionate universalism – improving the lives of all, with proportionately greater resources targeted at the more disadvantaged groups
The need for more coordinated approaches to child health and wellbeing if outcomes are to be improved
Thinking of investing in the current and future health of children and young people rather than focusing purely on spend
Needing to listen to children and young people and families if we are to develop effective strategies
• But the way we manage and inform parents and professionals
about the health of children has not changed in over 20 years
and cannot support the new vision.
www.england.nhs.uk
• Changing perceptions about organisational boundaries to provide
joined-up care
• Overcoming technical constraints to provide information when it is
needed, in easily understandable formats
• More information sharing across care settings within health
• More information sharing with partners outside of the NHS who are also
responsible for the health and wellbeing of children
• Online access for children, parents and families to their own health
records
• Using the potential of new technologies to enhance health and wellbeing
Significant change is needed:

to meet current and future challenges

• Is fragmented – partial records in several different systems – Maternity,
GP, Child Health Information Systems, Acute
• No single picture of a child’s health interventions
• Is complex - disparate systems with very little interoperability
• Very limited access to information for our partners outside the NHS, for
example, Social Services or Education
• Information still largely recorded on paper and sent from care-setting to
care-setting
• Information re-keyed from systems to system creating large
administrative burden
• Possible for children’s information to be mislaid/delayed when they
move to a new area
• Impossible to easily view a child’s history and determine how healthy
they are

• Imagination and intelligence need to be applied to use information in
ways that enhance professional practice and personal/parental
responsibility for the health of children and young people
• We need to inquire into why we do things in certain ways and ask
whether there are better ideas and models available.
• We need to change our perspective to truly see and deliver integrated
care, no more working and thinking in silos.
• We need to do things differently
We need to think differently
www.england.nhs.uk
• We had a simple, almost real time, single view of whether the healthy child
programme had been delivered to a child?
• It acted as failsafe for the population and the child and the parents?
• It could be used easily by parents and children – what interventions should
my child be having, at what age, have they had them?
• It could be used by professionals managing a population cohort (or
caseload)
