NHSI provides a view of the data on a secure web portal where you can check your Sitrep submissions, manually add or change values on screen, and then authorise your submission. You will be able to see previous admissions on the portal, and edit and authorise returns for the last five days (up to and including the current day). 


You will need to register for the NHSI collections portal in order to view, check and authorise your Sitrep submission. Please contact the NHSI Support team for this: nhsi.sitrepsupportteam@nhs.net


Once you have submitted your data, there should be a delay of no more than two minutes before it is available to view on the portal.


Your submission must be validated within the portal for the submission to be completed. NHSI allows a five-day window (up to and including the present day) to validate automated returns, and to submit and validate manual returns from the previous five days (up to and including the present day) to allow for staff absence, weekends and Public Holidays, and to correct any errors. However, any trusts that have not submitted and validated their Sitrep data by 11a.m. will be logged and contacted by the Sitrep support team.


There is also the option to auto-validate your return, i.e. to dispense with the manual validation process, if you are confident that your automated return does not need to be checked again once it has been submitted. Further details on how to achieve this can be found in the NHSI portal once you have an account.


It is important that you do not submit only a single metric on its own, as this will be rejected – at least two metrics should be included in the submission (even if they are NULL values).
