Improving access to seven day services - Taunton 4th March 2015
The first of the regional events for the south took place in Taunton on 4 March. Over 100 delegates from local health and social care organisations came together with patient, public and voluntary sector representatives to hear about the expectations, opportunities and challenges of delivering seven day services and to review and further develop plans for their local communities.
Interactions between the delegates in their local health and social care communities, supported by the NHS Improving Quality team, made this a vibrant event with everyone contributing to the table discussions during the day.
Key themes emerging during the day included:
• The need for system resilience group members to fully understand the skills and “offer” that each of them can bring to the table to improve health and social care seven days a week. This was highlighted in discussions around clinical standard 9, which many groups focussed on as their top priority.
• The need to have an effective system of information sharing between all parts of the health and social care system.
• The huge role that patients and public groups have to play in planning services.

“#CWPZeroHarm”
Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (CWP) – a provider of mental health and community physical health services – has responded proactively with an initiative to tackle the patient safety challenge posed by Hard Truths. Its #CWPZeroHarm ‘Stop, Think, Listen’ campaign, underpinned by the 6Cs, aims to drive cultural change to deliver improvements in safe care and provide better outcomes. The case study describes how CWP has invested in a number of plans to tackle unwarranted variations in health care by helping staff to deliver continuous improvement. The campaign has already started to make a positive difference – CWP achieved the highest score in the country for ‘overall experience of services’ in the CQC survey of users of its mental health community services.

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.

Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.
CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)

Time to Change
• Five day service model not
meeting patient needs or
expectations.
• Increasing evidence of poor
outcomes for patients admitted
at weekends
- mortality rates
- re-admission rates
- length of stay
- patient experience
“This change
will be
difficult - but
it is the right
thing to do.”
Sir Bruce Keogh,
National Medical Director
5. Seven Day Services Improvement Programme in partnership with NHS England
Mortality rates
• Significantly greater risk of dying (up to 16%)
for weekend admissions
• Multi-factorial, likely to be result of:
Variable staffing levels
Absence of senior decision-makers /
consultant level skill and experience
Lack of specialist services (eg diagnostics)
Lack of specialist community and primary care
services to support patients to die at home
6. Seven Day Services Improvement Programme in partnership with NHS England
Other outcomes
Length of stay
• Factors contributing to unnecessarily longer stays
more pronounced at weekends
• Waiting for senior assessment equates to longer LoS
Readmission rates
• Working between different parts of system more
difficult, impacting on readmissions
Patient Experience
• Lack of senior decision makers hinders
communication
7. Seven Day Services Improvement Programme in partnership with NHS England
The journey so far…..
• Everyone Counts: Planning for Patients 2013/14
- “The NHS will move towards routine services
being available seven days a week.”
• Seven Day Services Forum established - urgent
and emergency services, supporting diagnostics.
• Forum’s recommendations approved by NHS
England – including adoption of 10 clinical
standards.
8. Seven Day Services Improvement Programme in partnership with NHS England
The journey so far… (cont’d)
• Forum scope widened -
consideration of a fully
integrated seven day service.
• Five Year Forward View: key
part of system transformation
“…we will develop a framework
for how seven day services can
be implemented affordably and
sustainably…”

Challenges
“There are
numerous plans
and strategies in
place but little
positive action and
achievement.”
“Stakeholders are
finding it difficult to
‘see outside their
own front door’ due
to operational
pressures and cost
reduction.”
“Everyone thinks that the CCGs should be
driving the agenda…but in some areas
leaders are questioning whether they have
the courage to be radical.”
“We were slow to realise
that it not about additional
funding or simply adding to
our workforce, we were not
thinking laterally across the
whole health economy.”
“Patients want 7 day
services but react
when we need to
relocate services to
offer a 7 day service."
“Competition between
Trusts and lack of trust
between us is one hurdle.”

Standard 3 - Multi-disciplinary
Team (MDT) review
“All emergency inpatients must be assessed for complex or on-going needs within 14
hours by a multi-professional team, overseen by a competent decision-maker, unless
deemed unnecessary by the responsible consultant. An integrated management plan
with estimated discharge date and physiological and functional criteria for discharge
must be in place along with completed medicines reconciliation within 24 hours.”
Supporting information:
• The MDT will vary by specialty but as a minimum will include Nursing,
Medicine, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy and for medical patients, Occupational
Therapy.
• Other professionals that may be required include but are not limited to:
dieticians, podiatrists, speech and language therapy and psychologists and
consultants in other specialist areas such as geriatrics.
• Reviews should be informed by patients existing primary and community
• Appropriate staff must be available for the treatment/management plan to
be carried out

PERFORM Seeks To Challenge
Traditional Ways Of Working
Fire fighting
“I’m working long hours fixing the latest issues...it never seems to stop”
I am frustrated with social service
There is a high variation in clinical performance including discharge
process and consumables used
Management by email
“I received 200 emails yesterday, how do you expect me to meet with my
team”
The blame game
“We cannot discharge patients on time because social service cannot
accommodate
“Poor communication regarding clinic scheduling, working lists and clinic
cancellations”
Sickness levels are high
The performance disconnection
“I’m not sure how I impact our department’s performance”
Active management
“I understand issues before they happen because of
increased visibility of performance and more regular review”
From a traditional way of working... ...to the PERFORM way of working
Management by walking the floor
“I have a structured day that allows me time to understand
problems and best practice in my team”
Working together
“When things go wrong we raise problems and work
together with other teams to resolve them”
Connected performance
“I know what is required of me on a day-to-day basis and
can see how it impacts my department”

What Trust Staff Are Saying About
PERFORM
“Perform has given us
daily communication
with key people such as
Physiotherapists and
Occupational therapists.
It has given us instant
feedback from these
teams.”
Ward Manager
“I was not enjoying my
job before Perform and
was thinking of leaving
– now I look forward to
coming into work
again”
OT Manager
“Multi disciplinary teams
identifying opportunities to
improve quality and
performance through
collaborate working to deliver
change and share best practice
whilst not forgetting to
celebrate achievements and
success.”
Lead Business Manager
“Engagement from all the
MDT is brilliant- decisions
are being made quickly,
efficiently and staff feel
empowered to make
decisions.”
Ward Matron
“Perform has improved the efficiency of the team as a whole, given the scope
for many members of the MDT to contribute collectively at the care of the
patients. It has also allowed us to focus on which patients can be discharged,
and the barriers to this.”
Medical Consultant
“Before Perform I was not
enjoying my job – I did
not look forward to
coming into work. Now
with improved
communication I feel I can
do my job better.
(paraphrased,
anonymous)
“I have worked at 5
other Trusts and no
where have I seen
effective working like
this – I am now looking
to stay at Durham”
Medical Registrar
“Perform has given the inpatient areas a daily
platform for multi-disciplinary working. This
model gives the teams an opportunity to focus on
actions that are needed to address areas of each
patient pathway in order that they have timely
and appropriate interventions that leads to a safe
and effective discharge.”

Further 7 day Projects Which Have
Stemmed From The Implementation
Of Standard 3…
There are 4 key issues which are blocking medically fit patients from leaving the ward…
On average the information centres across the six wards are typically seeing 30 patients
per week who are now medically fit for discharge but are “blocked” in the system due to
problems which are being addressed.
Just over one
third of the
patients ready to
move on are
under the Trust’s
control
By making problems visible on information centres, the teams have highlighted 4 key areas
of focus: CHC assessments, Nursing Home discharges, Diagnostics and community
hospitals.

46. “Beyond Assessment”
County Durham and
DarlingtonBarriers to sharing information?
• There shouldn’t be any.
• Ensuring we comply with the legal and regulatory
framework and various requirements (e.g. Caldicott 2
report)
• Professional/public attitudes to sharing information differ.
47. “Beyond Assessment”
County Durham and
DarlingtonOvercoming the ‘Barriers’
• It’s not ‘we can’t share’ – its ‘how can we share’
• An Information Sharing Agreement (ISA) is a document
for all parties to agree :
• Assist compliance with information rights law and
practice.
• Set’s out standards and consistency that have to be met
by all signatories.
• Ensure patient consent is achieved in process
48. “Beyond Assessment”
County Durham and
DarlingtonApproach
• North East Information Governance (IG) Managers
developed Multi Agency Information Sharing protocol –
ISA Template used is an appendix of this.
• Balance between legislation (e.g. consent) and best
interests of the patients for their healthcare
• Engagement between IG leads essential to understand
concept and agree way forward.
49. “Beyond Assessment”
County Durham and
DarlingtonWhy We Needed to Share
Information
• Identified and agreed to develop two phases of
information sharing for specific parts of project:
1. Data analysis across health and social care
organisations to inform planning (e.g. identify
patient cohorts, team roles required, capacity)
2. Sharing of relevant client information across
partner organisations to support new ways of
working and processes across partners
* Examples used are for the Darlington MDT for frail elderly
50. “Beyond Assessment”
County Durham and
DarlingtonPhase 1 – Data Analysis ISA
• Data Analysis ISA:
– Allow sharing of information to identify the cohort of patients we needed
to target for the project.
– 3003 frail elderly patients identified
• 76% were in GP practice DES (direct enhanced services)
• Care homes – 12% of DES
• Assumption 88% care home population were included in the
initial 3003 identified patients
– Data then shared across Social Services/Mental Health and Acute Trust to
determine how many of Frail Elderly cohort already known to them
– Results surprising and very beneficial; informed planning of roles/capacity
required
51. “Beyond Assessment”
County Durham and
DarlingtonPhase 1 – Data Analysis ISA
Challenges
• Question whether using NHS number for
planning/commissioning purposes met regulatory/legal
framework
– Issues with NHS number “used only for direct patient
care”
• After local and national review over several months –
NHS Number could be used if appropriate ISA was
agreed by all partners
52. “Beyond Assessment”
County Durham and
DarlingtonPhase 2 - MDT Process ISA
• Can only start ISA when processes have been agreed by
staff involved.
• ISA detailed what information will be shared, how it will
be shared, how it will be transferred, stored and securely
disposed of, also covered a range of other areas e.g.
training, incident reporting etc.
• ISA for Third sector organisations were new, challenging
and surprising.
• Full Communication between all parties crucial.
53. “Beyond Assessment”
County Durham and
DarlingtonPhases 1 and 2 - ISA lessons learnt
• Must be a single lead / facilitator
• Standards have to be met by all parties, discussions of
how these can be worked towards / met.
• Version control is a must to track different comments.
• Central point for all comments and signatories.
54. “Beyond Assessment”
County Durham and
DarlingtonFuture Challenges
• Identified a broader range of Voluntary Sector
Organisations who have not yet signed current ISA
• Lack of understanding - CCG’s for the need for this
protection (seen as red tape)
• Integrated working outside the public sector
• Shared / integrated electronic systems
• Acceptance of the learning and sharing across other
organisations - don’t reinvent the wheel

National actions: Progress.
• Background: SDSIP support to CDD 7DS team.
– two way conduit for information.
• Purpose:
1. Data analysis.
2. Sharing of relevant information.
• Escalated to NHSIC/NHS England IG to clarify.
– A conference call allowed the process followed to date,
following local guidance, to be presented for clarification and
support, and for debate to allow greater understanding both
of the full extent of the issue, and the solutions
recommended.
57. Seven Day Services Improvement Programme in partnership with NHS England
• Case study being written up.
– Contains process followed, outcomes, copies of
documentation produced (inc’ Information Sharing
Agreements).
– To be shared via NHSIQ/SDSIP website.
• Escalated to NHS England (7DS Implementation Board).
• Recognition that the scale of the problem has not been
identified nationally.
– Purpose of the EA sites is to identify these issues.
• Clear national guidance to be developed about how to
overcome these problems.
• Assurance of how the NHS number can be used for
these purposes.
58. Seven Day Services Improvement Programme in partnership with NHS England
• Further learning from 7 Day Services Early Adopters
• How Healthwatch have contributed to the 7 day services agenda
• Approaches and solutions to workforce issues and how Health Education
England can support 7 Day services
