Electronic Palliative Care Co-ordination System Reports
The Electronic Palliative Care Coordination System (EPaCCS) is an electronic record that supports advance care planning conversations and improves the coordination of care for people approaching the end of life. It provides a summary of key recommendations, preferences and information essential to the high quality care for patients with palliative care needs and those choosing to plan ahead, irrespective of prognosis. Local and national data shows that when patients are given the opportunity to discuss and share their preferences they are more likely to achieve their end of life care goals.
This is a 2024-25 (Q1-Q3) Leeds Planning Ahead Report report, combining SystmOne and EMIS data for patients registered from all the practices across Leeds. To ensure a comprehensive view of advance care planning it collates EPaCCS data entered by all relevant care providers: Leeds Community Healthcare community services, hospice services, community palliative care teams in addition to primary care.
