Care Connect > Home

	Welcome to Care Connect CareConnect is a regional initiative by the four Northern Region DHBs (Auckland, Counties Manukau, Waitemata, Northland) to improve information sharing among community and hospital healthcare providers for the benefit of patients. Information sharing helps healthcare providers 'complete the picture' so they provide the best care to their patients as quickly as possible. “When you’re not well you don’t want to waste time” CareConnect builds on previous successes and is the home for new services becoming available.

Visit the TestSafe site.		2011 is the year to swap pen and paper for mouse and keyboard to manage referrals in Auckland. Referrals are a critical part of the patient journey, enabling doctors to work together to provide the patient with the right care at the right time. eReferrals improves information transfer between primary and secondary care providers by reducing duplication and minimising errors that occur through incomplete information or lost referrals. It also means that GPs can spend less time on paperwork and more time with patients. Visit the eReferrals site.		Coming Up...
