Phase one of the Great North Care Record gave accident and emergency, out-of-hours, ambulance, mental health and 111-services access to the GP record.

This was the first step in the process towards creating an integrated care record. This was vital to get information sharing agreements set up and for the region to adopt data sharing.

Much of the work during phase one was about building the right culture, trust and encouraging collaboration. Likewise, it was about setting up the networks and teams necessary to implement the next stage of the project.

Finally, it was about learning about how we bring different sectors and agencies together to work towards a shared vision.
