25. Relieving Pressure on Parking
and Encouraging Active Travel
Dan Saunders, Product Manager
Basemap
26. PARKING PRESSURES IN NHS
• Pressures of hospital car parking constantly in
the news
• Reduce the number of car parking spaces &
introduce a sustainable parking permit system
• Parking very emotive
• Complaints about lack of spaces
• People who could travel by alternative means or
park somewhere else
• Need fair system for monitoring and controlling
to ensure spaces allocated in the best way
27. ENCOURAGING ACTIVE TRAVEL
• Active travel relieves parking pressures &
encourage staff health and wellbeing
• Promote cycle to work and car share scheme
- Provisions for cycle racks & showers
• Communicate the benefits of walking/cycling
• Highlight public transport options & routes
• Collaborate with local transport
partnerships/companies
• 2030 target of reducing carbon emissions by
40%
28. OXFORD HEALTH NHS FOUNDATION TRUST - THE PROBLEM
• Needed to introduce sustainable car parking permit system following increase
pressure on parking
• Increase due to business growth, changes in services & staff travelling further
• Health & safety issues - cars blocking emergency access
• Wanted to increase active travel & reduce congestion around hospital
• New car parking management system needed to be fair to all
• Manage over 100 sites
• Straight line or circle approach not sufficient - important to look at travel time &
consider all variables
30. ▪ Quick easy analysis of travel time and distance
• Public transport (all modes)
• Car
• Cycle
• Walking
▪ Can adjust the transport network
• Add new roads, exclude dangerous roads
• Add or remove a bus service
WHAT IS TRACC?
• Outputs
• Travel time contours maps
• Origin to destination
time/distance spreadsheets
• Origin to destination path report
• Demographic data reports
• Catchment maps
33. OXFORD HEALTH NHS FOUNDATION TRUST: THE SOLUTION
Get the union to decide to cut off travel times
• 25 minute Cycle
• 25 minute Walk
• 45 minute public transport outbound – morning peak
• 45 minute public transport Inbound – afternoon peak
Analyse every postcode within a 2 hour buffer
• New and Existing Staff
• Results outputted as a large CSV file
• Results imported linked into existing HR system
• Gave a score where travel time was an element
Change in travel behaviour after system went live
• Increase in active travel
• Reduction in congestion
• Robust evidence for appeals
37. “If we hadn’t had TRACC, our only alternative would
have been a system that wouldn’t have considered public
transport options and we wouldn’t have been able to
achieve these very detailed results”
“We have seen an increase in people travelling a
different way & finding different solutions as a result”
Tanya Street, Estates & Facilities Business Change Manager at Oxford
Health NHS Foundation Trust
www.basemap.co.uk/oxford_nhs
38. HOW IS TRACC USED IN OTHER NHS DEPARTMENTS?
• Distance: staff and patient access to NHS sites
• Travel times to NHS sites for staff and patients using postcode data
• Have an educated look at bus subsidies
• Looking at public transport access to NHS sites
• Impact on service cuts
• Look at new developments and impact of site/unit closures on staff and patients
• Use TM-Speeds data to look at car driving times
• Look at catchment areas of hospitals and services
• Look at commissioning of new and existing health services
41. SUMMARY
• Saves time
• Easy to use
• Accurate demographic reporting
• Flexible - view and edit data
• Influence new site proposals or closures
• Assist with pressure on parking
• Encourage active travel for staff & patients
• Control of data/queries - no need to outsource

146. ALIGNING WITH THE NEEDS OF THE NHS
• We don’t just ensure that you
achieve your goals….
We make it harder for you to fail.
147. LIVERPOOL WOMEN’S HOSPITAL - THE
CHALLENGE
Liverpool Women’s Hospital is a specialist NHS Trusts in the UK that is dedicated
to the healthcare of women, babies and their families.
Over 8,000 babies delivered and
10,000 gynaecological procedures
untaken each year, as well
multiple genetics departments to
maintain.
Vital that the trusts waste
disposal methods are as safe and
sustainable as possible.
148. THE CHALLENGE
DISPOSABLE ‘BURN’ BINS ISSUES
Safe?
The single-use system was not the safest option for sharps disposal.
• Small size
• Absence of protective features (permanent locks, pre-assembly)
Efficiency
The time taken to construct some of these containers impinged on carers’ time.
Plastic Disposal
Single-use containers saw the disposal of 6.5 tonnes of polypropylene plastic
per year
- Not in line with the 2008 climate change act
- Costly
149. THE CHALLENGE
REDUCE CLINICAL WASTE & CO2
Promoting Sustainability
One of Liverpool Women’s biggest environmental objectives
was to reduce their clinical waste and, consequently, their
carbon emissions.
Compliance
• Independent audit had highlighted instances of non-compliance with waste
guidelines
• Trust were concerned that they were incinerating significantly more waste than
necessary
• Wanted to ensure they were fully compliant on all fronts
• Trust’s environmental manager was under growing pressure to introduce an
offensive waste stream.
151. WHAT IS THE SHARPSMART SYSTEM?
A Reusable Engineered Safety Device designed for point-of-care disposal of sharps,
pharmaceuticals and recyclable devices.
Reusable sharps containment system &
accessories designed for traceable safe point-
of-care disposal.
Bespoke blended learning programmes built on
‘5 Moments’ Concept including hard copy ‘touch
point’ training tools and e-learning modules.
Auditsmart Perpetual Audit system designed
for continual optimisation and compliance
153. WHAT IS THE BAG TO BED SYSTEM?
A total waste optimisation solution including an array of bespoke blended-learning tools and accesories ensure
that optimised segregation, safety and compliance can be achieved routinely without compromising correct
segregation techniques.
Flexible accessories designed to ensure safe,
compliant point-of-care segregation/disposal
Bespoke blended learning programmes built on
‘5 Moments’ Concept including hard copy ‘touch
point’ training tools and e-learning modules.
The system reduces the possible risk of
infection by the removal of the infectious
waste bins from patient areas.

155. THE RESULTS – SHARPSMART
Forecast:
Sharpsmart will not have to manufacture any additional containers for the hospital to use for the next 10 years,
leading to an estimated 560 tonne reduction in CO2 emissions from the trust & 65 tonnes of plastic being
removed from the incineration stream.
In 19 months since the Sharpsmart installation:
• Sharps Management Savings of 10%
• 10 tonnes of polypropylene plastic saved from being incinerated
• CO2 emissions reduced by approximately 56 tonnes
• Safer working environment for staff
• 6,000 fewer containers are handled by both clinical and portering staff each year.
• Reduced waste volumes and educational opportunities for all staff.
156. THE RESULTS - CLINISMART BAG-TO-BEDSIDE
All cost and time-related savings from introducing these systems have been diverted to the maintenance and
improvement of frontline services, including waste, portering and domestic services.
In 6 months since the Clinismart Bag to Bedside system installation:
• Minimised the presence of waste containers in bay areas
• 40% of waste diverted from clinical to offensive and infectious streams
• Cost savings of 45%
• Touch-point education available for all staff involved in the production
& movement for healthcare waste
• Its value as an educational tool has helped the Trust stay compliant with CQC guidelines and 2012
Controlled Waste Regulations.
157. PROJECT FEEDBACK
Regarding the success of the project, John Foley, Environment Manager at the
Trust, commented;
“By providing a significant reduction in carbon emissions and clinical waste volumes, the
introduction of the Sharpsmart and Clinismart systems to the Trust has greatly assisted
with our efforts to become more sustainable in line with the Climate Change Act.
Results were noticed almost immediately by both staff and patients, which has greatly
enhanced the Trust and its prestigious reputation as a safe and environmentally-conscious
healthcare provider. The ability to audit and see what is inside a container is a real eye-
opener and extremely useful in educating staff.”

Providing a more sustainable patient journey
Overview of presentation
163. • NEAS provides a number of NHS services, and covers the
counties of County Durham, Northumberland, Tyne &
Wear, along with the boroughs of Darlington, Hartlepool,
Middlesbrough, Redcar, Cleveland & Stockton on Tees
• 60 Stations spread across 3,200 square miles
• Our fleet of more than 500 vehicles clock up 10 million
miles per year
• We employ > 2000 staff in Emergency Care, Patient
Transport, Contact Centre including 111, along with
Support Services
Introduction to NEAS
Who we are
165. • Emergency Care 999
service for life
threatening calls
• Patient Transport (PTS)
for those that require
transport to outpatient
appointments
• NHS 111 for urgent
healthcare needs
Introduction to NEAS
What services we offer
Emergency Care and
PTS are both supported
by NEAS contact centres
in Newcastle & South
Tyneside
2015/16 Phone calls:
• 400,000 x 999
• 83,000 x urgent
• 665,000 x 111 calls
• 353,000 x PTS calls
167. NEAS will reduce the carbon emissions from our
operations by 30%, from a 2012/13 baseline of
11,017 tonnes CO2, by the end of March 2020. This
represents a reduction of 33%
The potential cost of taking no action on carbon
reduction, compared to achieving the target in this
plan, is a cumulative sum of £10.6 million by March
2020.
Carbon Management Plan
Overall target
168. What our overall target
means for the fleet:
* NEAS needs to reduce
the carbon produced by
the fleet by around 2500
tonnes by 2020 to be in
with a chance of hitting
the overall target *

Overview
172. A number of potential wide ranging benefits:
• Improved driver behaviour
• Increased fuel consumption & reduced CO2 emissions
• Reduced traffic collisions
• An improved patient experience
• Increased evidence to defend
motor claims
• Reduced maintenance & repair
costs
• More accurate statistical analysis
Fleet Sustainability
Telematics
173. • Dual Crewed Ambulances (DCA) restricted to 56mph
when not on blues and RRVs to 70mph
• Monitoring & Speed limiting produced an initial 10%
fuel saving on DCAs and 14% on RRVs
• From this success it was rolled out to the full
Emergency care fleet
• Savings stabilised at 3.2%
• Having the system on its own will not produce
savings, must be used as a driver behaviour
management system
Fleet sustainability
Telematics savings so far
174. • Driver feedback systems in conjunction with Cranfield
University
• Monitoring and targeting driver behaviour
• Potentially a further 10% reduction in CO2
• Couple with fuel efficient driver training
• League table drivers based on their off blues driving
• A 10% reduction = around 800 tonnes CO2 and just
under £300k
• Potential for PTS fleet if payback right

New technologies
180. • Compass 4D – 12% reduction in fuel savings
• A reduction of 66% in time spent below 5pmh
• Real world reduction was small as few vehicles &
junctions
• Huge scope for creating a smoother, more efficient
patient experience
• 2017 – expanding the number of junctions, and
potentially vehicles.
Fleet Sustainability
New technologies - savings
181. By end 2017/18 20% of 999 calls will result in ‘Hear &
Treat’ or ‘See & Treat’ rather than a conveyance to
hospital
Further reductions are planned through use of
Advanced Practitioners in RRVs rather than Dual
Crewed Ambulances (DCAs)
Changes to how crews are despatched – currently on
average 1.7:1 aim to reduce to 1.3:1
Fleet sustainability
CIP projects
182. • Huge way to go – unsure if its even possible to create
the CMP reductions by 2020 on the fleet
• Need full buy-in from Ambulance Manufacturers
• Invest to save budget to be set up – fleet specific. Try
and replicate the success we have seen with estates
invest to save
• Engine cleans
• Engine remapping
Fleet projects
Plans for the future
183. Large geographical area of NEAS doesn’t lend itself
well to electric vehicles
Ambulance manufacturers need to buy-in to the low
carbon agenda
In-house resources
Needs all Ambulance Trusts to work as one through
Green Environmental Ambulance Network (GrEAN) and

work, with specific issues identified and resolutions suggested.
