Government response to the House of Lords Public Services Committee – our comments and thoughts
Whilst reviewing the government’s response to the House of Lords Public Services Committee report on homecare medicines services, we find an approach to Recommendation 2 particularly noteworthy. This recommendation urges NHS England to ascertain the extent of patient harm or illness resulting from homecare service deficiencies. We believe that without sophisticated analytical tools like ai365, analysing this information would indeed be challenging, if not near impossible. Retrospective analysis would be further complicated.
While leveraging existing data sources such as complaints and clinical incidents could offer some insight into the scope of the issue, we propose that a shift towards ongoing independent monitoring would be more effective. ai365 presents a promising solution in this regard. This advanced analytics tool has the capability to automatically generate alerts when patients do not receive the necessary nursing care or deliveries. These alerts signify potential deviations from planned care, warranting investigation before harm or illness occurs.
It’s worth noting that ai365 is already being utilised by major pharmaceutical companies to enhance their oversight of commissioned homecare services. This underscores its reliability and effectiveness in improving regulation and governance. Therefore, adopting ai365 or similar sophisticated analytics tools could significantly enhance NHS England’s ability to monitor and address homecare service failings in real-time, ultimately leading to improved patient outcomes and safety.
