- Reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission in A&E settings
- Protect A&E for those whose need is most urgent
- Signpost and support the public to receive the right care in the right place, first time
- Reduce waits for treatment
Northamptonshire was selected as an early implementer of the programme and piloted it from late October, prior to the national launch on 1 December.
