Question
How 2a-type of mobile team can work effectively?
Problem description
In our network we don’t have common and integrated evaluation scales at our disposal, that could possibly make the work of the 2a-mobile teams effectively
Impact - effect
Firstly an impact on the 2a-team: at the first visits, that are very important in crisis situations, the team members are not well informed about the situation and feel unsure. Secondly an impact at network level: the acute ambulatory care pathway is not really integrated in the care programme of the network, and by consequence there is little communication between the several functions
To do
To do: introduce several practice supportive instruments like these are used in Birmingham: an IT-tool, a risk scale, a common file that contains several items which can be linked to the knowledge and specificity of the involved functions, and this trough out the trajectory of the patient within the network. A risk scale would help in any case to understand and assess the situation at the first visit, to manage the situation and to avoid situations involving risk. We are also in need of a common file to increase the effiency of 2a-interventions (not always necessarily done by two team members)
