1 Cluster Network Action Plan Neath Cluster 1

2 Introduction The Neath Cluster Network includes a cluster of 8 GP practices, seven of the practices are engaged in GP training. The cluster network estate includes eight main practices, two of which are located within the new purpose built Briton Ferry Health Centre. Four practices are in Neath town centre and two are in the Skewen area of Neath Port Talbot. The Neath Cluster Network area contains 9 Nursing/Residential Homes. There are 10 community pharmacies and 7 dental practices. The cluster serves a registered GP population of 56,700 (a slight increase from 56,470 in 2015). The registered population changes have varied between practices with 4 out of the 8 practices showing an increasing list size and 4 a decreasing list size between January 2011 and January ADD deprivation data The cluster achieved a number of priorities during 2015/16 including: The development of the Neath Primary Care Hub, with NHS Pacesetter status. The Neath Hub supports GP practices in their efforts to respond to increasing patient demand whilst achieving quality of access for the patient. The hub provides a range of services including physiotherapy and a mental health support worker role from a central point in Neath, as well as a prescribing pharmacist and technician working in practices throughout the cluster. GPs are able to refer directly into from the point of triage and to support this the cluster has commissioned V360 a shared appointment and clinical system to enable GPs to book directly into the hub and give practitioners in the hub access to the practices clinical record. 2

3 The Neath Cluster Action plan will support practices and multi-agencies to work collaboratively to: Understand local health needs and priorities. Develop an agreed Cluster Network Action Plan linked to elements of the individual Practice Development Plans. Work with partners to improve the coordination of care and the integration of health and social care. Work with local communities and networks to reduce health inequalities. The Cluster Network Action Plan includes: - Objectives that can be delivered independently by the network to improve patient care and to ensure the sustainability and modernisation of services. Objectives for delivery through partnership working Issues for discussion with the Health Board For each objective there are specific, measureable actions with a clear timescale for delivery. The Cluster Action Plan compliments individual Practice Development Plans, tackling issues that cannot be managed at an individual practice level or challenges that can be more effectively and efficiently delivered through collaborative action. This approach supports greater consistency of service provision and improved quality of care, whilst more effectively managing the impact of increasing demand set against financial and workforce challenges. 3
