Information
Hubs
In
the past, if a person had complex or long-term care and support needs
they might have had to repeat their story to several different parts of
the
system. Sinead
Brophy Consulting and Epic
Solutions have developed the
concept of Information
Hubs to deliver personalized
health and social care support by
leveraging
the power of the internet. Sinead
Brophy
Consulting will continue to
support the project as part of the
County’s
wider Transformation of Health and Social Care Programme through
personalisation.
The
pilot project forms part of the Department of Health’s
‘Putting People
First’ agenda which aims to give people the choice and
control to
commission
their own care and support services.
