A central command centre has been set up at Regent’s Point in Newcastle, providing a space for health and social care operational teams to co-locate and a hub for staff to hot-desk and meet.
The Command Centre continued to operate virtually throughout Covid-19.
A digital dashboard, displaying a wealth of real-time health and social care data from across the City (including A&E statistics, hospital admissions, hospital bed and care home bed figures, live staffing and Covid data) informs joint decision-making on a daily basis.
This shared, collective data helps to ensure that residents are getting the best possible care and support – in the right place at the right time.
