Prevention of COVID-19 and long COVID

About this activity

Use the QI template below to design practice-specific models for you and your team.

Goal
Identify patients at an increased risk of COVID-19 infection and possible subsequent long COVID. Resolve to raise these matters within a certain timeframe.
Measures
Use Pen CAT4 to identify patients considered at increased risk of COVID-19 infection and severe illness, and those at higher risk of developing long COVID.
Improvement ideas
  • Set reminders for ‘higher risk’ patients for winter planning.
  • Use Pen CAT4 to pull a list of patients who are at a higher risk of COVID-19 infection and subsequent long COVID. 
  • Use pre-existing templates for at-risk patients enabling them to quickly access the best treatments available if infected.

Download the QI template below for more improvement ideas.
