3 3 P age Report From: Tara Filby, Chief Nurse Date: 26 th June 218 Subject: Purpose: Safer Staffing Monthly Exception Report This report provides an overview of nursing and midwifery staffing and advises the Board of those wards where staffing capacity and capability fell short of what was planned and any mitigation. 1. Background This report will advise the Trust Board of those wards where staffing capacity and capability fell short of what was planned, the reason why and any impact on quality and the action taken to mitigate any risk in staffing from 1 st May- 31 st May 218. This report provides details of where compliance was less than 85%, our Trust internal target (Amber rated) along with those areas where compliance was less than 8%, national target (Red rated) 1 of the 38 wards fall into this red rated category for May May Position The overall fill rate for nurse staffing has been identified as higher than March 218. The Trust has continued to support the ward areas with moves across wards when appropriate. The percentage of actual to planned trained staff is less than 8% on one ward on days and zero wards on nights this month. This ward is part of Surgery and critical care where there are concerns due to the high vacancy rate on ward 25 and ward 1/11. A number of options are currently being worked though in the operations directorate to risks associated with this. There were 4 NICE red flag events for staffing identified for May, an increase from 31 in April, however 12 out of the 4 had been identified as being on one ward. These incidents were reviewed and showed a registered nurse short to the agreed establishment, although the staffing still met the 1:8 ratio (nurse/patient). FFT feedback scores remain high with most areas achieving 1%. Low ward return rates however do not show a complete picture at present, so this will be explored further in future reports. This reports show the number of all pressure ulcers and falls, previously reported were those falls/pressure ulcers deemed avoidable following RCA. Pressure ulcers for April grade 2= 44, grade 3 =1, Suspected deep tissue injury =21, unstageable= 6. This shows a decrease from April in grade 2 but an increase in grade 3. A focused piece of work is underway across the trust to reduce the incidence of pressure ulcers.

4 4 P age 3. Improvement Actions Each ward is reviewed daily by the operational matrons and Associate Chief Nurses and any redeployment of staff is undertaken on a shift by shift basis. The operational matrons plan the next day staffing requirements by reviewing the acuity and dependency of the wards they are responsible for and in conjunction with the ward sister/charge nurse. The skill mix of the nursing workforce is taken into account daily. We make conscious decisions to move nurses by ward or within their own ward according to competency and skills. Where we have vacancies in ward areas we are actively recruiting to these posts using social media, filming of ward staff talking about benefits of working in the ward and through Trust and NHS Jobs website. A focused piece of work is looking at non-eu nursing recruitment. A risk assessment is in place to empower midwives to escalate concerns re: staffing levels and the acuity and complexity of women in their care. Mitigating actions are then put in place as per the Trust escalation policy, including calling in supportive resource from the community midwifery team and informing the Matrons: sickness levels in the community need to be monitored to ensure cover can be provided. 4. Forward Planning and Opportunities A table-top review of Birthrate Plus was undertaken in May to ensure that the staffing levels are adequate to meet the current and proposed changes in the model of care and development in service provision. A report is expected to be received in July. A new deal for nursing is currently being developed to look at career progression across nursing and looking how we can sustain a safe, effective workforce. 5. Recommendation The Board is asked to note the report and support any further action required.
