Services include: Emergency and urgent care services including emergency surgery * Planned and on-going care and rehabilitation * Outpatient clinics in a range of conditions * Elective surgery * Diagnostic services * Maternity services * Children's services * End of life care * Therapies including physio, occupational and speech and language * Community services such as district nursing and health promotion The Contracting Authority delivers care from sites across Northumberland and North Tyneside including an emergency care hospital, general and community hospitals, an outpatient and diagnostic centre, an elderly care unit and an integrated health and social care facility. At present our proposed project would be predominantly based on the procurement of a comprehensive Virtual Consultations platform. Timescales: The Trusts current platform is under a contract that will expire on 31 March 2023 and we will require a fully implemented solution in place by that date.
