Levels of Service Provision • Level 0 Five days a week, Monday to Friday 9-5, (8hrs
service) • Level 1 Services limited to one department or a service
that is beginning to deliver some services beyond the 8am – 6pm Monday to Friday service.
• Level 2 – Services that are delivered 7 days per week, but not always offering the full range of services that are delivered on week days.
• Level 3 – A whole service approach to 7 day service delivery that requires several elements to work together in order to facilitate clinical decision making or treatment, often covering more than one work force group.
• Level 4 – A whole system approach to 7 day service delivery by integrating the requirements for elements of 7 day services across more than one specialty
