Covid-19 update: Temporary changes to children and young people’s services
In June 2020, NCL CCG began a clinically-led review to make recommendations on how to provide the best possible emergency and planned care for children throughout the pandemic, when any potential increase in demand from Covid-19 cases is likely to create added pressure on the NHS. This review reported in August 2020, and on the basis of this clinical advice, several temporary changes to children and young people’s services were implemented in October 2020.

Area specific guidance for Camden
Dr Oliver Anglin is pleased to announce that the Integrated Paediatric Service (IPS) will be rolled out across Camden following the success of the IPS pilot. Triage is gradually being switched on – your practice will be contacted when it is your turn. If you have any queries about this please email Oliver Anglin or Nnamdi Nwanze.
When considering the child, it is important to think of their health within the context of their family and their wider social circumstances. Over the last few years, we have been working with the local authority, schools, mental health, primary and secondary care and community health services and the voluntary sector to provide integrated services.
