9 Working with families as partners Josephine Ocloo and David Smith Family Members Learning from Deaths Programme Board
10 Compassion and Living Your Values Treat people with respect, kindness, care and compassion - too many people feel they didn t have this experience at the worst time of their lives. Families should be listened to and believed; not treated as the problem. Staff should recognise that families are grieving - they need to be mindful of their language and never disparaging. Staff need to recognise that when families speak up, they re only seeking the truth - don t simply tag them as troublemakers. 10
11 Communication Families will only hear the news that their loved one has died once. Clarity - a need to talk in plain understandable language. Transparency, openness and honesty must underpin all communication. Timescales should be clearly agreed with families and adhered to. Need consistent and clear communication with families. Need information about how to access medical and other records. Easy infographic guides and checklists should be provided for families. 3
12 Independence of Investigatory Systems Too many families find themselves having to become detectives. Deaths investigated if families push needs someone else to push. Families feel they have to fight against a culture that places corporate defensiveness above a corporate concern for the truth. All investigations must be and be seen to be independent. Regulators should sign up to principles of independence and transparency and not close ranks. Be honest lost notes etc. are seen as indicators of cover ups.
13 Imbalance of power The power imbalance can t be underestimated. Compared to families, Trusts have significant finance and resources, including: Legal support Understanding and control of : the processes the technicalities of the system the language of clinicians and NHS speak And Trust staff have access to support - families have to find their own The playing field must be levelled. 13
14 Empowering families Families should be central in investigations and treated as equals. Need a person-centred approach; a sympathetic environment; and respect for patient rights. Need a right to access all key information/medical records; and funded legal advice. Need strong sanctions when medical records are lost or missing. The CQC should contact and engage with families where there s been an Serious Incident (SI).
15 Empowering families (continued) Families need increased levels of independent support across the process, including: Free advocacy/support and signposting to the right information A person to support them in establishing the truth Ability to request a coroner from outside the local area; or post mortem by another Trust Counselling for families A review of PALS/Family Liaison Services
16 Balancing Learning and Accountability Families want learning but feel they also have a right to accountability. CULTURE change is essential in moving things forward and requires strong leadership. There should be penalties and sanctions when wrongdoing occurs and rewards for learning Being human - the culture is set from the leadership of the organisation. Saying sorry is important BUT it has to be genuine. Learning within one Trust needs to be shared with others. 7

19 Embedding learning from deaths within the work of trusts Dr Nigel Kennea Consultant Neonatologist and Associate Medical Director St George s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
20 Learning from Deaths - Building processes to support and learn Dr NL Kennea Associate Medical Director St George s Hospitals NHS FT
21 Summary of Presentation What we wish to achieve Challenges Our experience, what we have learned Future plans
22 What we wish to achieve Learning from deaths is about doing the right thing Building systems to understand deaths and support improvements Open information and family involvement Data and information / reporting Vital to link mortality review work to other Trust governance structures / processes to fully support families and improve care The case review is the start not the end of a process
23 Challenges Time and timeliness of case reviews / Independence of review Defining value amongst other quality measures (Reporting vs Learning) How best to involve and support families Health systems are complex Care pathways / other providers Build systems to collate information and learn Majority of case reviews have learning
24 Developing Processes All deaths reviewed in local M+M Service level mortality reviews Trust level mortality reviews
25 Trust-level Processes Identification of deaths and timely case review Support of families and processes in bereavement office Feed into essential work relating to specific patient groups Rapid escalation of care issues to drive change and learning Collation of data and Board-level oversight / challenge
26 Unadjusted mortality timely data
27 Unadjusted mortality timely data
28 Trust-level Processes Consultant review of deaths in bereavement office from case-notes (all reviewers trained in RCP review methodology) Seamless and timely escalation to clinical team and trust-level governance structures for investigation and/or learning Clear and sensitive communication with families IT systems and dedicated manager to collate data and information
29 Reviews of Deaths Reviewed Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov
30 Cases reviewed since April 833 full case notes reviewed 38 child deaths (15 NNU,16 PICU) 7 deaths notified to LeDeR programme 8 deaths in patients with mental health diagnoses 63 cases escalated for local investigation / action 11 case reviews identified potentially significant care issue requiring highlevel investigation 11/833 = 1.32%
31 Proportion of reviews Interval between death and case review Number of days Data: Sept Nov 2017
32 Benefits of early independent case review Identify and support families with immediate concerns Early identification of care issues that require action / investigation Adverse incidents Interaction with other health providers Support improved bereavement processes Death certification Coroner s referral Support specialist mortality review programmes
33 What we have learned Efficient bereavement processes improve experience of families Open culture of asking and creating mechanism for families to raise concerns is helpful poster, booklet, survey, Teams and other providers appreciative of rapid feedback Abundant opportunities to learn and improve the need to develop systems to triangulate information Issues of care contributing to death are fortunately rare. Strong central team enables timely data collection and reporting
34 Examples: Learning from recent case reviews Communication / Escalation ITU escalation / care planning / end of life care Handover / Transfer of care Inter-hospital referral Documentation Community dialysis patients NG tubes Operative risks / MDT involvement / consent Processes of care Out of hospital arrests Sepsis bundles Thrombectomy
35 Future Plans Enhance family communication and support Ensure care group review processes strengthened - further training Monitor the learning ensure sustainability champions Ensure seamless feed into other trust governance and improvement work Work with other providers
36 Summary Mortality data is one of several important quality metrics Timely case note review is an important way of identifying, and learning from, problems in care and supporting families Many care issues may (should) be identified by other routes Focus needs to be on improving care and learning Case mix and care pathways adds complexity Challenges in managing processes, data and outcomes

59 Where have the questions come from? NHS England held a two-day event in November ~ 75 family members and advocates involved NHS England invited ~30 family members to be involved in today s event Two x 2.5hr webinars recently held with these families to decide on the questions for today NHS Improvement have further added their questions to these 59
60 What we d like you to do: Each table has been allotted two questions each. If you have time, you can choose a further question. A family member will introduce each question and might possibly explain their related experience. As before, please then write your comments on cards (about 5-9 words on each one). Plenary: Your table facilitator will have less than two minutes to feedback please agree on two key points or actions per question. 60
61 Question Themes: Perception of recourse solely for financial recompense. Independence for investigators. Creating a just, open and learning organisational culture. Access to independent advice, advocacy and support. The power imbalance between families and organisations. Listening to and involving families and carers before things go wrong. Truth and reconciliation for harmed families. How will trusts demonstrate their words. 61
62 Last, but not least: Please be open warts and all! Please consider: What do you / your trust currently do? What gets in the way of doing the right thing? What support do you need? How can you address these questions locally with families and carers? 62
