The Universal Care Plan for London is going live London wide on the NHS app & web browser from 23 January 2024. Accessed via your health>care plans. This will enable everyone with a UCP to view it independently via this digital platform . Gary McAllister @lucycolleer Nick Tigere

It’s been a long time coming! From 23 Jan, Londoners with a Universal Care Plan for London will be able to view care plans on the NHS App. This is a huge achievement to integrate with a national platform. Next step is read/write access so patients can share and update their own wishes on the app.

Very proud to have been a small part of this. Huge for OneLondon and the Universal Care Plan for London team - well done to the whole UCP and NHS England Transformation team!

We are pleased to announce that the UCP has integrated with NHS Digital’s National Record Locator (NRL) service. The London Ambulance and the London Urgent Care services can now view UCP care plans via the National Care Records Service (NCRS). #LondonUCP #careplanningsolution

We are delighted to confirm that from next month the Universal Care Plan for London will be extended to support people with sickle cell disease, helping to ensure they get the right care wherever they are in the Capital. Find out more here: bit.ly/3I0EfeW

Today, a colleague and I visited Acton Care Centre to see some of the amazing Marie Curie nurses in action. They use the Universal Care Plan for London with all their residents to enable care planning discussions! Every DSPT compliant care home in London can have access! ucp.onelondon.online

This time next week, we will be going live with our first major change to the UCP template. From 14 March, users will be able to co-create and share pain plans for people with sickle cell disease.

Wishing all of our colleagues attending the Commitment to Carers conference a wonderful day! The UCP team can't be there in person, but if you might see our Carer contingency video featured at the conference... #NHSThinkCarer #Hellomynameis Debbie (she/her) matthew mckenzie FRSA BEM youtube.com/watch?v=s5L5Hs…

Well done to the team. Be great to hear how the user feedback goes

Big week next week with release 2.1 incoming. Starting ‘small’ with SCD (~4,000 patients) and then scaling up to dementia, frailty, learning disabilities and autism, BCYP and others later in the year, closely followed by patient editable access via NHS App

It's live! From today, the UCP can be used to co-create and share pain management plans for people with sickle cell. This is a pivotal development as our first new use case since launching the UCP, and will help reduce inequalities that people with Sickle Cell face.

June was another record-breaking month for the UCP, with 4,200 new care plans being created and over 19,000 care plans being accessed. There are now over 64,000 patients in London who have a UCP that is visible to everyone who cares for them.

Co-designed by the Frailty network, the expanded UCP will capture more detailed information about patients' daily activities and support needs, such as washing, dressing, meal preparation, mobility and managing medication. #UCPexpansion
