Carers Personal Details (To Be Completed By The Carer)
Patient Being Cared For (To Be Completed By The Patient)
Enhanced Summary Care Record (To Be Completed By The Patient)
The Summary Care Record (SCR) is an electronic record of important patient information, created
from GP medical records. It can be seen and used by authorised staff in other areas of the
health and care system involved in the patient’s direct care. Access to SCR information means
that care in other settings is safer, reducing the risk of prescribing errors. It also helps
avoid delays to urgent care. If you are registered with a GP practice in England your SCR is
created automatically, unless you have opted out.
As a minimum, the SCR holds important information about; current medication, allergies and
details of any previous bad reactions to medicines, your name, address, date of birth and
NHS number. We are encouraging patients to opt in to enhancing their SCR to provide other
health care professionals with a better understanding of your history. Enhancing your SCR
would include the following information;
- Significant medical history (past and present)
- Reason for medication
- Anticipatory care information (such as information about the management of long term conditions)
- Communication preferences
- End of life care information and Immunisations
