    • Community Triage Tool Implementation


      If your service is interested in implemented the CoTT, you will find some information below. If you have any more questions or would like to discuss the implementation or licensing further, please contact manchestertriage@alsg.org


      In order to implement the CoTT, you will need the following:


      • A license with the Manchester Triage Group and ALSG for your service
      • Instructor training for your instructors who will be responsible for the training and sign off of the providers in their service
      • Audit and governance agreement with the Manchester Triage Group

    • Licensing the use of MTS Clinical Risk Management Tools

      The Manchester Triage System (MTS) is a series of clinical risk management tools used by clinicians worldwide to enable them to safely manage patient flow when clinical need far exceeds capacity. The following MTS tools are available:


      • Emergency Triage: Emergency Departments and Ambulance Services
      • Telephone Triage and Advice: Urgent and Emergency Care
      • Prehospital Pathfinder: Ambulance Services
      • Community Triage Tool: Community settings (non-clinical)


      The licensing process for MTS content is managed by Wiley on behalf of the Advanced Life Support Group and the Manchester Triage Group. A formal governance structure for MTS ensures that training, audit and robust ongoing review is carried out routinely so that the tools stay safe, up-to-date and relevant to current practice.


      All MTS tools are licensed to recognise the ownership of the intellectual property of MTS content and also to provide ongoing funding for the governance processes. The licensing agreement also provides a formal connection between the MTS and its users ensuring that users receive the correct training, engage in audit and are fully aware when updates are required.


      The first step is to register via our online portal to ensure that you understand the governance processes in terms of training, audit and licensing. Different MTS tools have different licensing requirements and you will find the information needed on the MTS hub page for each tool.
