Developed to support GP administrative staff in sorting, signposting and delivering administrative triage, 5 new elearning sessions aim to guide those administering a triage process in general practice through signposting to existing resources, questions and mini quizzes which are designed to record how confident learners feel in each topic area at the start and end of the elearning sessions.
In these sessions, produced in partnership with NHS England, the Practice Managers Association and Health Education England, learners will be introduced to:
introducing administrative triage and understanding the evidence behind using an online consultation system to support patient requests
designing a practice workflow and setting up a triage list
promoting the service to patients and understanding some of the considerations for the practice team when working remotely
confidently taking patients, or their nominated carer, through an online consultation request over the telephone or in person
sorting patient requests and signposting to the right place, service or clinician for clinical triage
The new elearning sessions take approximately 10 to 15 minutes to complete.
