The AHSN and Centre for Implementation Science is working as the independent evaluator for the Happy, Healthy, at Home Vanguard programme in North East Hampshire and Farnham.
This was the second symposium of the independent evaluation and focused on the Farnham Locality. The event included presentations from the Farnham Integrated Care Team and the Farnham Referral Management Service, as well as a series of ‘Evaluation Stations’ where delegates spent time with teams from Farnham, North East Hampshire and Farnham CCG and NHS England.
The event was attended by a wide-range of people who are interested in seeing how the vanguard programme is making changes to the local health system in North East Hampshire and Farnham and who are interested in evaluation approaches. These are the collected slides from the day.
This is our Business Plan for the next year; 2017-18.
In health, as in other sectors, innovation and adoption at scale is increasingly driven by interdisciplinary research, synergies between industries, and a step-change in end-user (citizen, consumer, patient) engagement in the process. Seeing the wood from the trees, making connections, spotting opportunities, and understanding how to get traction requires a breadth of perspective and strong roots into, and across, that landscape.
Academic Health Science Networks (AHSNs) connect horizontally across research, industries, commissioners, providers and users; and network vertically between policy formulation, system design, operational coal-face and end-user experience. That role takes us across all parts of the NHS, into industry, local government and other public agencies, into universities, charities, start-ups, and into funders. And up and down the system; from the role of the GP receptionist in improvement and innovation; to dialogue with policy makers and regulators about refining system design to support adoption and spread of innovation.
Networks which are open to, and embrace, the diverse perspectives of these stakeholders will, in turn, help the systems and members which they support be open to the adoption and spread of innovation.
That is what we, Wessex AHSN, aspire to. We hope you find this spirit reflected in our business plan.

What can we do?” More specifically, “What do we mean when we say ‘patient engagement’?” The Patient Activation Measure is a powerful tool for understanding where someone's at and how to interact with them differently.

The Canadian Cancer Survivor Network (CCSN) conducted a survey in April 2013 the discover the impact that being involved in volunteer advocacy and/or the development of public policy has on cancer patients, survivors, caregivers and family members. 51 people completed the survey. Findings were that patient advocacy generally has a positive impact on the self-image of those doing it, that many volunteer advocates felt better, prouder, more useful, more hopeful, more effective and more powerful. Still others felt less angry, less anxious, and less sad. But some survey respondents did feel sadder, angrier, less hopeful and less content. CCSN recommends that organizations ensure that cancer patients involved in advocacy activities receive skills to help them and support to deal with the often slow-moving and sometimes frustrating healthcare, cancer care and government systems in Canada.
This workshop brought together, for the first time, the pioneers and the partner organisations of the Integrated Care and Support programme. It focused on building a learning community that will help develop, share and spread knowledge and solutions at scale and pace across the country.

Allina Health used actionable data to identify potential areas of bias, then applied the right interventions to decrease implicit biases. For example, data revealed that the African American populations receiving care at Allina Health were not enrolling in hospice programs when they were eligible because the hospitalists weren’t referring African Americans at the same rate as other populations.
Vivian Anugwom, Health Equity Manager at Allina Health, shares how she led a team to implement new measures, including implicit bias trainings, to help address and overcome these biases to ensure health equity for all.
During this webinar, Vivian will help attendees:
- Understand how Allina Health uses data to identify disparities.
- Define bias and its impact on health disparities.

Expo is the most significant annual health and social care event in the calendar, uniting more NHS and care leaders, commissioners, clinicians, voluntary sector partners, innovators and media than any other health and care event.
Expo 15 returned to Manchester and was hosted once again by NHS England. Around 5000 people a day from health and care, the voluntary sector, local government, and industry joined together at Manchester Central Convention Centre for two packed days of speakers, workshops, exhibitions and professional development.
This year, Expo was more relevant and engaging than ever before, happening within the first 100 days of the new Government, and almost 12 months after the publication of the NHS Five Year Forward View. It was also a great opportunity to check on and learn from the progress of Greater Manchester as the area prepares to take over a £6 billion devolved health and social care budget, pledging to integrate hospital, community, primary and social care and vastly improve health and well-being.

An integrated model of psychosocial cancer care: a work in progress…Cancer Institute NSW
Cancer patients are faced with a multitude of stressors, from diagnosis, through treatment, at recurrence, in the stages following treatment completion, and in the terminal phase. Psychosocial care has been highlighted as a critical aspect of providing comprehensive patient-focused care. Specifically, one of the goals of The NSW Cancer Plan 2011-2015 is to improve the quality of life of people with cancer and their carers. This project was initiated to improve the current psychosocial model of care at The Kinghorn Cancer Centre (TKCC), to better reflect an integrated, holistic and comprehensive model of patient-centred care.

solutions which will improve their health and wellbeing,
often using services provided by the voluntary and
community sector”.
(Social Prescribing Network Conference Report: January 2016
6. Making Connections Delivery

12. Qualitative Evaluation
Interviews with 8 people identified four themes:
1. Strength of the relationship
“We just chatted about everyday things and we thoroughly
enjoyed each other’s company”
“ I keep thinking that it’s a privilege them sharing with me what
their lives have been and are, to allow me to come in and assist
them”
“I’ve loved her coming”
2. Practical assistance
“She comes and takes me out occasionally, which is
wonderful.
13. Qualitative Evaluation
Interviews with 8 people identified four themes:
3. Match between client and service
“ I’m only a youngster at 72 and quite active”
4. Service infrastructure
“(attending the MDT meetings has) raised the profile of the
voluntary sector with the health professionals and social
services”
“They’ve been absolute gold dust to us, they come every week”
14. Impact on A&E and Emergency Admissions
• The Commissioning Support Unit have analysed the
emergency activity records of 206 clients referred to
Making Connections between August 2015 and
November 2016.
• Their analysis compares clients use of A&E and
emergency admissions to hospital for the 120 days
before referral with the 120 days that follow.
• The majority of patients are still within 120 days of
their referral date so haven’t been included yet – so
the findings are very early and come with a
health warning.
15. Impact on A&E and Emergency Admissions
• The very early and caveated findings are showing:
– A reduction in the rate of A&E attendance of 18%
– A reduction in the rate of emergency admission of 19%
• These are encouraging and comparable with other
social prescribing services evaluated by the AHSN.
• We will continue this analysis to firm up the rates of
change and use these to undertake an economic
evaluation of the service.
16. Active ingredients that support this model
• Co-design of project with CCG.
• Time to develop the relationship with the client – guided
conversations
• Practice buy-in and support.
• Being part of the MDT is essential. When it works best,
the Coordinator is an equal player at the table - this takes
time to build.
• Good local knowledge and connections
• The benefits of the Coordinators being hosted by an
organisation that is focused on community development
and partnership.
