The Tsunami of COPD
• All these people in hospital are there because
there are more people out there, all getting
worse
• We need more beds to cope
• People come to hospital with COPD after
hours
What were we trying to change?
• Patient response – how to stay well
• Ambulance responses - assess severity by agreed
criteria, knowing patient prior status
– Call practice if well
– Involve Acute Demand / 24 hour surgery if less well
– Severe exacerbations or uncertain – ED
• ED and AMAU responses – consider early supported
discharge – ADMS or CREST
– Acute Demand nurses in ED and AMAU
– Enhance Acute Demand skill to treat COPD
• Visibility of patient history / plan through technology
CCMS & eSCRV
