Overview
What is The London Care Record (LCR)?
The London Care Record (LCR) is an innovative digital platform designed to collate summary information from multiple health and care source systems. This integrated solution allows health and care providers to access and contribute to a comprehensive collection of patient information, ensuring a complete and up-to-date picture of each patient's health and care history and needs.
How to access the LCR?
Access to the LCR is seamlessly integrated within your local electronic patient record system through an in-context link. For patients, secondary care data is easily accessible via the NHS App, empowering them to stay informed about their health. Meanwhile, GPs and clinicians in primary care settings can view this vital clinical information directly within their clinical systems.
By providing immediate access to secondary and elective care data, the LCR enhances continuity of care for both clinicians and patients, supporting more informed decision-making and better health outcomes.
