9 Year Investors in Carers GP Standard Accreditation 9 4 levels of attainment: 1. Bronze 2. Silver 3. Gold 4. Gold Plus Scheme aims: Improve identification of and support available to Carers Acknowledge work undertaken to support Carers by Northamptonshire GP teams Provide an accredited framework for GP teams within which to develop services and good practice Modelled on schemes in Ceredigion & Wiltshire. Hoped it may become part of a nationally recognised Investors in Carers Standard. Accreditation panel constituted (inc Carers, CASW s, GP, CCG & County Council) Surgeries can submit evidence to the panel in April and October each year Accreditation valid for two years, after which further evidence required to maintain award.

10 Investors in Carers GP Standard Levels Gold Plus (the sparkler) Creative initiatives. Sustained engagement. 5% min of PP to be registered as Carers 75% of the 5% referred to NC for support Gold (the cherry) Health checks & specific support initiatives. 4% min of PP to be registered as Carers 60% of the 4% referred to NC for support Silver (the icing) More proactive activity by surgery. 2% min of PP to be registered as Carers 30% of the 2% referred to NC for support 10 Bronze (the cake) Most important level ensures identification, reg and ref systems in place. 1% min of PP to be registered as Carers 15% of the 1% referred to NC for support

11 Investors in Carers GP Accreditation (first applications April 14) In first round 6 submitted applications All surgeries achieved standard applied for (5 x Bronze, 1 x Bronze & Silver) All expressed intentions to work towards the higher levels. Many surgeries intend to apply for accreditation in the next round of applications at end Oct 14. Scheme put forward as example of good practice at NHS England and RCGP Carers summit July Carers Wellbeing & awards event 1 st Oct attended by around 100 professionals and Carers including the Chair and CEO of local NHS Foundation Trust, Chair of Nene CCG, Cabinet Member for Health & Wellbeing, Director of Adult Social Services

12 Investors in Carers GP Accreditation Gives surgeries something to aim at Provides framework for team discussion Clearly defines areas for development and improvement Allows them to see what best practice should look like received 31/10/14 from surgery who achieved Bronze in first round: 12 Hi Louise, we won t be submitting for the Silver Award for Carers because although we are well over 2% of carers identified we have not referred 30% of these to yourselves only 20%. We are going to look again at how we approach referrals with our carers, since we offer to refer but seem to be getting carers saying they will take away the pack and think about it, rather than accept a referral now. Also a couple of our clinicians may be saying to patients to self-refer, rather than doing it there and then. Hopefully you will run the award scheme next year too and by then we ll have got this referral process sorted again.

13 Outcomes creating a BUZZ! 51/76 (67%) of Practices completed the 2013 Carers Audit Unprecedented interest by funders and stakeholders Most surgeries have improved systems and Carer signposting Since audit and IiC introduced referrals have more than doubled 6 surgeries applied for IiC accreditation with 5 achieving Bronze and 1 achieving Silver at least 4 more applications in Oct = 10 min led to piece of work with CCG looking at SystmOne & Emis Carer Template to include Health Checks - essential for robust more automated identification, registration, referral and continued monitoring of Carers health 96% of all Practices have made referrals since

14 Outcomes improved Carer support. By Mar 15 around 2,000 Carers should have received support and access to services as a result of referral by Primary Care since These Carers have reported improvements in their health and wellbeing and a reduction in use of GP and hospital services. 45% less likely to access hospital services for themselves or cared for 86% reported an improvement in physical health 77% feeling less stressed 82% felt more confident to carry on caring 50% felt treated with more respect by professionals & expert partner in care 76% reported an improvement in their quality of life From Outcomes Monitoring Survey of 500 long terms Carers who received NC service

15 Over to you Points for discussion: 1. Have you / would you introduce Audit and / or Investors in Carers GP Standard in your area? 2. What would you / have you done differently? 3.
