NACEL 2023 Pilot
In preparation for the roll out of NACEL in 2024 and 2025, the NACEL team launched the NACEL pilot earlier this year. The aims of the pilot included:
To evaluate whether quarterly data collection is effective.
To evaluate whether emergency department (ED) deaths can be collected in NACEL.
To test the target sample size for the Case Note Review collection.
To test out the revised Case Note Review questions.
To understand the scope and limitations of data, statistically and clinically.
To understand and determine the most appropriate way to report.
To understand whether the language used within the Case Note Review is applicable for the various care settings.
To help define an IT portal for the participants.
Feedback from the pilot has been invaluable in evaluating the proposal put together for the re-designed audit. From the feedback and findings, the information was used to contribute to the final design.
We’d like to thank all the participants that took part in the pilot - your feedback and insight is invaluable to the NACEL audit.
