Patient outcomes in mental healthcare can be enhanced through new technologies that place more care into the hands of patients. Communication-based technologies can reshape how services are delivered by connecting patients, providers, and real-time data to improve access to treatment, clinical management, and early intervention. This allows for more empowerment and a better experience for patients, while also making mental healthcare services more efficient and cost-effective to deliver on a local and national level.

This document discusses improving mental health service quality through measurement and feedback. It outlines the challenge of a quality gap in community mental health services and lack of evidence for their effectiveness. The theory presented is that systematic measurement of client progress and feedback to clinicians can improve outcomes. The Contextualized Feedback System provides standardized measures, dashboards for feedback, and training. Preliminary randomized trial results found feedback influenced clinician behavior and led to reduced client symptoms and improved functioning compared to no feedback. Plans are discussed to continue developing and testing the approach.
Parallel Session 1.8 Leading General Practice into the Future - Meeting Deman...NHSScotlandEvent
The document discusses applying lean principles and techniques in general practices to meet increasing demand. It describes how lean can help practices improve quality and reduce waste to more efficiently deliver primary care. Examples are given of practices that implemented lean tools to create more appointments, reduce staff costs, improve efficiency, and enhance patient experience. The document advocates that practices innovatively redesign processes and work together across the healthcare system to achieve the 2020 vision of delivering high quality primary care.
This document discusses efforts to improve post-diagnostic support (PDS) for people with dementia in Scotland. It describes 5 pillars that are being used to guide improvements to PDS, including establishing PDS leads and networks, capturing the impact of PDS through evaluation, developing a quality improvement framework, and relocating PDS services into primary care settings. Specific projects underway include testing a quality improvement framework with various sites, and shifting delivery of PDS from mental health teams to general practitioner practices in 3 locations. The benefits of relocating PDS to primary care are being explored. Overall, the document outlines initiatives to enhance and transform PDS for people with dementia in Scotland.
Scripps Health standardized their approach to improving patient experience across their large healthcare system. They examined their history of focusing on patient-centered care and defined new processes for leadership rounding. Their strategy involves increasing staff engagement through education, tools, and accountability. Data analysis is used to evaluate tactics and drive continuous improvement. The goal is for Scripps to be the leading system for quality, safety, and satisfaction through focus on compassionate and patient-centered care.
The document proposes gamifying an adherence to drug therapy (ADT) program by offering an online and mobile incentive program. It suggests leveraging human motivators like feedback, recognition, competition, cooperation, and rewards to engage non-adherent users and drive sustained behavior change. A gamified approach would take members through the behavior change process by appealing to key emotional drivers. This could promote healthy behavior among the 40% of non-adherent members that the current ADT program is unable to change.

The document discusses plans for a new youth mental health service in Sussex. It proposes a collaborative model involving the NHS Foundation Trust, Youth Parliament, and other partners. The service would provide a "one stop shop" for young people ages 15-25, with accessible, specialist staff. It would focus on improving transitions between services and reducing dropout rates. The project manager has developed a training package and promotion strategy. Their goals are to break down stigma and create a place called "Free Your Mind" for youth to discuss mental health openly. Challenges include concerns over overwhelming services and maintaining support amid financial pressures.
The Mindful Service provides outreach mental health services for 16-25 year olds in Surrey who are not accessing traditional services. It is run by Surrey and Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. The service aims to engage hard to reach youth, provide consultations and training, work with other agencies, and prevent long-term mental health issues. It operates flexibly in Guildford and Redhill to meet the needs of homeless, substance using, socially isolated, and transitioning youth. Challenges include managing a large geographic area with few staff, prioritizing work, and engaging those most in need of support.
The document discusses the Right Here initiative, a 5-year pilot program funded by MHF and PHF to improve mental health services for youth ages 16-25 in Brighton and Hove, UK. It is being run by Sussex Central YMCA and Mind in Brighton and Hove through resilience activities, campaigns, peer research, and fast-track counseling. It also details work being done with GPs, including youth research on experiences with GP services, assessment visits to GPs to provide best practices, and developing digital tools like "Doc Ready" and "My Places" to help prepare youth for doctor visits and find local mental health resources.
The Kent Youth Mental Health Pilot aimed to understand the needs of young people in Kent regarding their mental health and wellbeing. The project engaged over 50 young people aged 12-25 through focus groups to hear their perspectives. It also sought to build community resources and potentially commission a youth-friendly mental health service for the area. The goals were to meaningfully involve youth, improve understanding of youth mental health issues, and ensure accessible support services with a strengths-based approach focused on resilience, hope and recovery.
This document outlines a project plan to investigate youth mental health services in Kent, England. It involves:
1) Conducting focus groups with young people to understand factors influencing their well-being.
2) Providing mental health first aid training to various community organizations working with youth.
3) Analyzing findings to identify service gaps and options for developing an integrated youth mental health model.
The goals are to hear youth perspectives, build community support networks, and inform potential service changes. Benefits include informing service priorities and improving resource allocation to better support young people's mental health. Risks involve navigating organizational boundaries and managing expectations for potential new services.
This document summarizes the development of a dedicated youth mental health service in Norfolk. Key points include collaborating with young people, clinicians, and commissioners to address gaps in services between child and adult mental health.

Outcomes and further research were planned to evaluate prevention of long-term social disabilities. Challenges included gaining buy-in from all stakeholders and securing necessary resources.

“Buddy helped me communicate
better with my therapist, and it
helped me to spot patterns and see
what I was doing or not doing.
Buddy really felt like a friend
checking up on me at the end of
the day. Sometimes it was the only
contact I would have throughout
the day. It's something that helped
point me in the direction of change,
and which I then felt better able to
act on."
Helena, Service user
10. CLINICIAN FEEDBACK
Eric Morris, Clinical Director, EIS, SLaM
"The idea of Buddy is to put the person's goals at the centre of their treatment. I've
noticed that the ones who are using it have become more focused in what they want
to get out of our meetings. Early intervention service users usually have problems
with depression and anxiety and Buddy gives them support during the week when
they're not seeing a therapist."

We live in a digital world that has transformed society to put consumers in control, but Public services (the NHS and mental health) have embraced technology for interventions, data management and medication BUT remain analogue in harnessing technology to empower consumers. In mental health, we have: Users who are often passive, not in control, not engaged with treatment Culture of professionally-led care Paper-based user tools (mood diaries, help books, leaflets)
