Covid Clinical Assessment Service
Closed for New Applications
Thank you for your interest in the Covid-19 Clinical Assessment Service (CCAS). With the support of your colleagues, we have recruited sufficient clinicians to ensure that the service is able to meet the current and anticipated future demand. As we move in to a new phase of the pandemic where we have seen the infection rate remain low, we are now closed to new applications.
We thank you for your interest and will update the site should the situation change and we need to recruit new clinicians in the coming months.
Effective from 21/08/2020 16:00
NHS 111 online is the first port of call for people with COVID-19 symptoms. NHS 111 has been commissioned nationally to provide a dedicated COVID-19 response service to free general practices and other areas of the healthcare system to focus on managing those most at risk of complications from COVID-19.
This has been set up as the COVID-19 Clinical Assessment Service (CCAS). The CCAS has been set up to manage patients who require a discussion with a clinician following their use of NHS 111.
To deliver this service we are mobilising additional workforce, including from the experienced returning clinicians’ community. You will be employed to remotely support CCAS to ensure high quality clinical triage on which the healthcare system can rely.
