The service’s main stream of work is: 

  • Proactive referrals: A search has been created on EMIS that will pull a list of patients for the care coordinators to work on, this list will be pulled on a quarterly basis to ensure any newly coded patients be picked up as well.

However, the service will still accept the following: 

  • Organic referrals (received from networking/outreach events/incoming referrals): The service accepts referrals from primary and secondary care staff, VCSOs, and is open to self-referrals if the inclusion criteria is met. Referrals are sent to the service inbox, haringey.carenavigator@nhs.net, and will be processed within five days.
