Essential and Supporting Information (EASI)

In May 2006, the Knowledge Management Team launched the EASI (Essential and Supporting Information) system.  This system ensures that documents of relevance to Adult Social Care are identified and disseminated to appropriate employees.  'Essential' documents, such as legislation and Government guidance, are allocated to named key officers who ensure that appropriate action is taken within the Directorate.  All Adult Social Care employees are alerted to new documents via In the Know, Knowledge Management's fortnightly email bulletin.
