Digital Learning Disability and Autism Dynamic Support Register
The NHS plays a vital role in improving the lives of people with learning disabilities, autism, or both, helping them to achieve longer, healthier, and happier lives.
NHS initiatives, such as the Care, Education and Treatment Review Policy and Building the Right Support, emphasise the importance of early intervention to identify and support individuals at risk, preventing unnecessary admissions to mental health or learning disability hospitals.
What Is the Learning Disability and Autism Dynamic Support Register?
The Learning Disability and Autism Dynamic Support Register (LDA DSR) serves three primary aims:
- Centralised Record: Maintain a single, up-to-date record of individuals with learning disabilities and/or autism based on Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) membership and SNOMED codes.
- Risk Identification: Identify adults and children most at risk of admission along with their RAG status (Red, Amber, Green) to indicate risk levels.
- Data-Driven Improvements: Support reporting needs to drive transformation, ensure continuous improvement, and maintain quality assurance.
Both the centralised record and the risk identification allow care professionals to drill down into an individual’s integrated care record, providing essential insights to inform decision-making.
How Graphnet Supports the Dynamic Support Register
Graphnet’s cutting-edge Shared Care Record features a dedicated module designed to transform and optimise the management of the LDA DSR.
Many health and care organisations still rely on manual data collection through tools like Excel or Word for managing the LDA DSR. This traditional approach often leads to challenges such as limited accessibility, fragmented communication, and inefficiencies in reporting issues across multidisciplinary teams.
Graphnet’s solution tackles these limitations by digitising and automating the entire LDA DSR process. This innovation enables streamlined collaboration, real-time data sharing, and precise risk management, empowering teams to deliver faster, more coordinated care for individuals with learning disabilities and/or autism.
Benefits of Graphnet’s Approach
· Centralised Information: Eliminate scattered documentation by storing all data in one secure location.
· Enhanced Collaboration: Enable multidisciplinary teams to share caseloads effectively.
· Improved Interventions: Timely access to risk data helps prevent unnecessary hospital admissions.
· Data-Driven Decisions: Support continuous improvement through robust reporting and analytics.
