East Midlands Minimum Data Set and Data Collection and Reporting System Resource Pack

The National Health Trainer Programme proposed four outcomes for the Health Trainer service, as a way of measuring the impact of this intervention on Health Trainers, their clients and local communities. These four Outcomes provide the basis of the National Minimum Data Set for Health Trainer Services and can be found here.

To enable the much broader and in depth service provided by Health Trainers to be captured and reported on at a local, regional and national level the DH have also supported the development of a national Health Trainers Data Collection and Reporting System (DCRS). The Minimum Data Set is now an integral part of the DCRS and all data fields within the minimum data set have been made mandatory within the DCRS.

To obtain more information on the DCRS a system overview presentation is available at nww.trainersinhealth.nhs.uk or, alternatively, please contact the DCRS team at htSupport@bpcssa.nhs.uk

The East Midlands Health Trainer Hub has developed the following National Minimum Dataset and Data Collection Reporting System Resource Pack to offer paper-based collection of the National Minimum Dataset and subsequent input into the DCRS:
