Our second Scottish Annual Telecare Data Report, covering January – December 2017, addresses the following key deliverable within the Scottish Government’s Technology Enabled Care (TEC) Programme:
Develop a national data monitoring repository/information system which supports the use of TEC data as part of local service planning and routine care management
Having the ability to measure how TEC enabled changes convert into real improvement on an individual and service level basis is crucial to evidencing benefits and outcomes. To support this, the national measurement tool was developed in Scotland in collaboration with TEC partners. It aims to support local teams to consider how they routinely collect and use data to demonstrate change and improvement. Collecting and measuring robust data is the first step on a journey to understanding and using data more proactively.
