Escalation pathways

These pathways are intended to provide a clear process for use by local public health teams for any communicable disease issues that need:

  • peer discussion with national teams
  • to be shared with national teams for information/awareness
  • escalation to national teams for a nationally enabled response (e.g. coordination of an IMT)
