Birmingham Total Place Pilot Drugs and Alcohol Customer Insight Steve Rose – Birmingham City Council Simon Dickinson – Aperia Neil Mackin - CACI
Total Place Birmingham One of 6 themes. Also: mental health, learning disabilities, guns and gangs, early intervention, total community, leadership & governance; Drugs and alcohol: Drug recovery programme Reducing alcohol-related hospital admissions Alcohol availability and pricing Customer insight The emerging threads
Birmingham Total Place Moving beyond treatment to recovery: “ Unemployment, poverty, and homelessness make up the soup on which addiction and criminality feed. Work, prosperity and decent homes are aspirations which encourage abstinence and honesty” Paul Hayes, NTA Birmingham, Sept. 2009
Every £1 spent on  treatment  saves £9.50 in the criminal justice system Every £1 spent on  recovery  orientated treatment and community reintegration should save Birmingham considerably more Drug Recovery Programme
Alcohol: reducing admissions In Birmingham the equivalent of 1 hospital ward is occupied all year by patients suffering from alcohol  specific  conditions About 12 wards are taken up by patients with conditions which are  linked  to alcohol use to some degree One person was admitted 24 times in a year and cost £34,000 to treat Total hospital service cost in Birmingham is £5.7m

Job Centre – didnt help Summerhill terrace – RRAT dont treat individual Moving from JSA to ESA can be frustrating Methadone Came out of DIP – not enough support DIP East – no follow up around relapse control Government owned services are less capable Chest infection – got codeine and started to seek drugs again Waiting to go to Mum+Baby rehab – delayed by child+fam Doctors dont listen and seem to want control.  They are happy to keep you on script for as long as possible Getting back with other users Aftercare coming out of prison was poor.  Worked hard for 3.5yrs, but no support  Rehab was forced on me – I wasn’t ready for it Doctors don’t want to cut down meths Found other people using drugs (went looking for them) Waiting time after DIP is too long Other things other than methadone (morphine, pills/amps, Df118s) Too much free money – unlikely to get job that will pay enough to make it worthwhile Give a straight detox in prison Swansell – drug worker changed, things went downhill Prison was too easy – no deterrent, not enough help from CARAT team Prison – lack of help from drug services, no rehab Social services – tried to take kids and then dropped me No dry houses for women Penalised if you have kids Workers in the system get moved around – not enough professionalism DRUGS – What hindered?

Initial Views – the system No clear shared understanding across the system of what works and what doesn’t work No clear relationship between customer outcomes and service measurement / management No visibility of performance across the stakeholders  and no Risks and benefits are not shared across partners Users believe there is a system, but providers / stakeholders do not perceive a system Very heavy skew towards tier 3 – only about 5% is spent on prevention Reliance upon fixed cost resource solutions, rather than networking, training and information No pathways  Very service and contract placement led
Initial Views – customers Using Advocate as a gateway to long-term recovery planning and broader into public-service More flexibility in service consumption – allowing users to design recovery pathway One size doesn’t fit all  More aggressive reduction from methadone (drug-free wings in prisons?) Encouraging more service user leadership and self support (alcohol)  Time / target interventions around life events such as bereavement, child-birth and family break-up “ Use my fear / pain” Earlier referral into the system – by GPs, Adult Social Care, Housing Use initial contacts to build relationship, rather than “fast-track”  Evidence base for controlled drinking

Summary Findings Limited insight into what works and what doesn’t work No shared visibility of performance Service / contract system, not focused on outcomes Does system drive cyclical dependency? – less than 5% is spent on prevention We control the money…..No customer insight or control over service consumption Budgets don’t relate to need, drugs disproportionately greater than alcohol funding
Drug/Alcohol assessment against TP principles Shared clarity of objectives    Health and Crime engaged    Minimal input elsewhere Performance measuring against genuine outcomes    Totally lacking Pooled budgets    For treatment    Not for prevention Shared responsibility and accountability for outcomes    NI indicators for LSP    Limited cascade to drive outcomes Joined-up commissioning of services    For treatment    Not for prevention Services wrapped-around customer needs    Health management focused, not need or outcome driven Sharing of information    Parochial record keeping, is this in the customers’ best interests Personalised for efficiency and effectiveness    Limited, predominantly  one-size fits all
Key Recommendations – Drugs and Alcohol Make sustainable and incremental improvements in Drugs and Alcohol services, moving towards Total Place approach Establish outcome tracking and service demand Drive transformation through a number of pilots Undertake review and tightening of all contracts and the DAAT operation
Service Redesign Pilots Ideas….

    Initial Views –customers Using Advocate as a gateway to long-term recovery planning and broader into public-service More flexibility in service consumption – allowing users to design recovery pathway One size doesn’t fit all More aggressive reduction from methadone (drug-free wings in prisons?)

    Summary Findings Limitedinsight into what works and what doesn’t work No shared visibility of performance Service / contract system, not focused on outcomes Does system drive cyclical dependency? – less than 5% is spent on prevention We control the money…..No customer insight or control over service consumption Budgets don’t relate to need, drugs disproportionately greater than alcohol funding
