The transition to Universal Credit and the introduction of a lower benefit cap will become a reality for thousands of people this Autumn.
For the first time, Policy in Practice has modelled how welfare reform is affecting cities, towns and London Boroughs differently to create a national picture.
Using household-level data from different local authorities we’ve modelled the likely impact of continued deployment of welfare reforms on towns and cities that aren’t yet significantly affected.
By analysing the impact of Universal Credit on different types of councils we can predict how similar local authorities are likely to be hit.
Some areas in the UK will see a major impact almost overnight as a result of welfare reforms.
Listen to this webinar to learn:
1. How your local authority peers are impacted by welfare reforms (by council type)
2. What impact the lower benefit cap, Universal Credit and housing reforms will have (by council type)
3. How households in your local area are likely to be affected
A collection of resources for creating more effective slide presentations using PowerPoint, Keynote, etc. you can use to learn how to create memorable presentations to make people pay attention. Bullets Kill....Presentations that is. Don't wipe out the next room you speak in.

NICE has a long track record of producing guidelines for health and in 2013 expanded its responsibility to include social care. It is important that social care colleagues are aware of the forthcoming NICE Social Care Guidelines and Quality Standards. As part of our work with the National Collaborating Centre for Social Care (NCCSC) which is responsible for developing the NICE Social Care Guidelines, RiP/fA are holding a free webinar for colleagues across the social care sector.
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.

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)

Editor's Notes
We’ve responded to feedback from Panel 4 in March by devoting today’s event to real-life examples of how joined-up care is improving people’s lives and making work more rewarding for health and social care professionals.
We’re grateful to our partners for preparing today’s presentations. The case studies will be interspersed by discussion sessions that will influence the way partners commission ansd provide joined-up care in the future.

Caring Together will give people the support and information they need to take the best possible care of themselves and live independent, healthy lives. The joining up of care will ensure that health and social care providers work effectively together across organisational boundaries, managing care plans co-designed with the service user. Integrated care will focus primarily on people with long-term conditions, recognising that 20 per cent of people consume 70 per cent of health and social care resource. Joined-up care will reduce avoidale hospital admissions.
1. Governance structure and split between providers and commissioner;
2. Workstreams update, specifically mentioning progress made with community and ICT – Integrated Digital Care record
3. New Director for leading the work - Fleur’s arrival (who will be presenting the year ahead later on);
4. New public facing documents – specific focus on the vision and the integrated care system slides – are the two slides we have included as part of your presentation.
Copies of the document will be handed out on the day to delegates.
Caring Together will realise eight ambitions, each of which is underpinned by statements of what improved care will mean to the service user. The programme’s vision, values, ambitions and quality standards were all co-authored with the public.
This diagram shows how service providers will work together to give joined-up care that achieves the Caring Together ambitions and supports the empowered person.
Our four-minute video is based on a real story and shows how joined-up care is already helping people with long-term conditions to live independently at home. We’re grateful to the members of the public and clinicians who helped us make it.
Mention the work streams, governance structure, development of integrated care model, publication of public-facing documents, inclusion of Caring Together “shadow” measures in contracts awarded by commissioners for 2015/16.
Lots of important changes have already been made, not always as a direct consequence of the Caring Together programme but always in line with the Caring Together ethos. Examples include the development of integrated care teams working out of GP practices; the twinning of practices with local care homes; the care co-ordinators working across Bollington, Poynton and Disley; the falls service led by Peaks & Plains.
Big changes to come include STAIRRS, the Cheshire Integrated Digital Care Record, implementation of the risk stratification tool.
