First Contact Team (Dundee City)

													

The First Contact Team provides a first point of contact for anyone living in the community, aged 16 and over, and who does not have either a District Nurse or an Active Social Work worker.

First Contact provides a quick referral, quick assessment and where possible- a quick service. Customers are benefiting from this faster service which is improving referrals and assessment times for people in the city. First Contact provides a service for customers, their relatives and carers, and, with other professionals.

The Social Work First Contact Team improves referral and assessment timescales for services for people in Dundee. Our partnership with a range of services is improving customer outcomes. We work with colleagues from:
  • Community Health

First Contact will also assess cases that are only active to The Meals Service, Occupational Therapists, Community Alarm or District Nurses, if their involvement is only a one off visit.
