Coronavirus vaccinations
Covid vaccination information is now available via NCRS and NCRS integration to support patients and healthcare professionals. It presents information about a patient's coronavirus vaccination history, so health and care professionals can make a more informed decisions about the direct care they provide to patient.
The service will help clinicians providing direct care to patients, who might not have a GP medical record or a Summary Care Record with Additional Information. It also supports clinicians whose systems do not include coronavirus vaccination event information.
This functionality will provide the broadest possible nationally available mechanism to present coronavirus vaccination events. This may be particularly important when planning ongoing care or responding to symptoms or changes to a patient’s health, which may be linked to coronavirus or a possible adverse drug reaction to a coronavirus vaccine.
Coronavirus vaccination information is presented in NCRS on the Clinical tile on the Overview tab as follows.
1. Clinical tile
2. Overview tab.
3. Covid-19 vaccination information
