Esta herramienta pretende facilitar la planificación, gestión y evaluación de los servicios sociales que se prestan en un ámbito territorial determinado.

This system provides a standard description of the whole array of services available for a target population both at horizontal and at vertical level allowing for the basic information required to assess integrated care. It is based in coding the "minimum units of production of care" within services called Basic Inputs of Care (BSICs). These units are labeled using the most meaningful activity or "Main Type of Care" (MTC). DESDE-LTC has been extensively used in different sectors such as mental health, disability, elderly and long term care, performed in over 17 countries both in Europe and America. However this system requires extensive training and periodical update of the information gathered. Innovation: In order to overcome this problem several eTools have been developed in the last 4 years. eDESDE-LTC (www.edesdeproject.eu/) is an electronic knowledge base that contains all the information required to code and use the classification system in long term care. It includes the reference documents (conceptual framework, usability, dissemination and reports), a toolkit (coding system, glossary and assessment instrument), and an on-line training package. The use of this knowledge base proved useful as complementary to but not as a replacement of face-to-face

Background: DESDE-LTC (Description and Evaluation of Services and DirectoriEs for Long-Term Care)... more Background: DESDE-LTC (Description and Evaluation of Services and DirectoriEs for Long-Term Care) is an international classification system that allows standardized coding and comparisons between different territories and care sectors, such as health and social care, in defined geographic areas. We adapted DESDE-LTC into a computer tool (DESDE-AND) for compiling a directory of care services in Andalucia, Spain. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the maturity of DESDE-AND. A secondary objective of this study is to show the practicality of a new combined set of standard evaluation tools for measuring the maturity of health technology products. Methods: A system for semiautomated coding of service provision has been co-designed. A panel of 23 domain experts and a group of 68 end users participated in its maturity assessment that included its technology readiness level (TRL), usability, validity, adoption (Adoption Impact Ladder [AIL]), and overall degree of maturity [implementation maturity model [IMM]). We piloted the prototype in an urban environment (Seville, Spain). Results: The prototype was demonstrated in an operational environment (TRL 7). Sixty-eight different care services were coded, generating fact sheets for each service and its geolocation map. The observed agreement was 90%, with moderate reliability. The tool was partially adopted by the regional government of Andalucia (Spain), reaching a level 5 in adoption (AIL) and a level 4 in maturity (IMM) and is ready for full implementation. Conclusions: DESDE-AND is a usable and manageable system for coding and compiling service directories and it can be used as a core module of decision support systems to guide planning in complex cross-sectoral areas such as combined social and health care.
