The RCSLT Identification Tool is a new resource developed by London ODN SLTs as part of a national OD SLT working party to support unit SLTs in identifying babies who would benefit from SLT input. It uses the ‘specialist’, ‘targeted’ and ‘universal’ framework to support prioritisation and to inform service delivery and design. The mapping tool has been provided so that unit SLTs can plot what they currently deliver against the funding parameters, helping to identify future opportunities for growth. This national resource has been presented to Unit Leads and Matrons at the London ODN Clinical Oversight Groups over the last two weeks, and was also introduced to Neonatal SLTs in London.
