Emergency Care Summary

The Emergency Care Summary (ECS) is a subset of GP data held centrally in the SCI Store for every non-dissenting patient. It is intended to provide data for use in care contexts where clinicians do not have access to the core GP record, for example, Out of Hours, A&E.

To access the ECS Summary Management Summary screen:

1. From Consultation Manager select the patient required and open a consultation if one does not open automatically.
2. Select List - ECS Management Summary, the ECS Summary Management screen displays.
3. Click on the Emergency Care Summary tab.
