5 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY is committed to the provision of good quality care. The Trust provides a variety of services to a diverse population across the geographical localities and is committed to achieving the objectives set in the Vision, Values and Goals. These objectives include: Put in place clear and effective ways to manage and develop the organisation towards its goal Ensure these ways of working are supported by clear organisational policies, frameworks and standards Develop clear ways of measuring and understanding our performance so that we know whether we are making a difference Maintain and develop the Trust s culture so that it reflects our values and helps us provide services that are sensitive to the needs of a diverse population In March 2010, the Trust participated in the National Mental Health and Ethnicity Census ( Count Me In ). This survey is regarded as a key element of a national programme to improve services for patients from black and minority ethnic communities. The census is led by the Care Quality Commission and has received ethical approval from the NHS Research Ethics Committee and DH Review of Central returns. This annual national census started in 2005 with a predicted termination date of 2010; its objective is to support the Department of Health's fiveyear action plan for improving mental health services for black and minority ethnic communities. The aims of the survey are to: Obtain robust baseline numbers of black and ethnic minority inpatients using mental health services on a given date Encourage all mental health providers to have accurate and comprehensive sustainable ethnic monitoring and ethnic record keeping procedures in place Investigate the extent to which providers of mental health care have implemented culturally sensitive, appropriate and responsive services The project includes all inpatients (including patients on leave and on community treatment orders) at midnight on the 31 st March 2010 and includes: adult services, older people s services and forensic and secure services. In 2005 learning disability services were excluded but these have been included for the past 5 years. This report presents a summary of the results across all the participating services in the Business Development Units of Calderdale, Kirklees, Wakefield and Forensics. The census was completed for a total of 401 inpatients, 245 male patients and 156 female patients and 42 patients on community treatment orders 26 male and 16 female. Page 1

6 The following are the main results from the census: 100% of sleeping accommodation is classed as single sex 95% of inpatients have access to single sex toilets and bathing facilities but 32% still have to share lounge/day room facilities with members of the opposite sex The percentage of white British has remained constant for the last two years % of inpatients 100% 80% 60% 40% 20% 0% 83% 78% 78% 16% 20% 20% 1% 2% 2% White British Ethnic background Not stated 20% (83/401) of inpatients were from an ethnic background this included all non white British and excluded the not stated category The percentage of patients assessing their own ethnicity has increased from 74% in 2008 to 77% in 2009 and 88% in 2010 The percentage of patients admitted under a section of the mental health act has remained constant at 54%, but has increased on census day from 55% to 57% and then 62% (2010). This increase is partially due to the inclusion of the 42 patients on community treatment orders, without these it would be 58% 4% of patients were admitted informally but were then detained under a section of the mental health act 61% of patients from an ethnic background were admitted under a section of the mental health act and 69% of patients from an ethnic background were detained under a section of the mental health act on census day % of inpatients 80% 60% 40% 20% 0% 69% 61% 52% 54% 55% 58% formal admission 2010 detained on census day 2010 White British Ethnic background Trust total 97% of patients were on CPA, an increase of 9% from % of patients continue to be referred by a community mental health team, an increase of 7% in 2008 and The percentage of patients with an unknown referral source has decreased from 32% in 2008 to 20% in 2009 to 16% in 2010 The percentage of male patients admitted under a section of the mental health act and also those in hospital and on a section on census day, continues to be more than 20% higher than female patients and has increased from 2009 Page 2

7 The percentage of patients with a Christian religion/faith continues to decrease from 68% (2008) to 60% (2009) to 57% (2010). The percentage of not stated continues to increase The number of patients who were secluded, required constraint, who were involved in at least one incident of assault, accident or selfharm, all have increased from 2009 to 2010 % of inpatients 20% 15% 10% 5% 8% 8% 6% 11% 7% 10% 16% 15% 14% 19% 18% 17% White British Ethnic background Trust total 7% 6% 6% 0% self harm accident assault restraint seclusion The main conclusions are: There is a positive decrease by 16% of patients sharing a mixed toilet or bathroom and decrease by 6% of patients sharing a dayroom with the opposite sex which is directly due to the opening of new units at Fieldhead and the upgrading of some inpatient accommodation Following the changes to the CPA classification at the end of 2008, there was a decrease of patients on CPA in 2009, however this was a transitional stage in the implementation of the new guidance and 2010 has shown an increase to 97% for patients on CPA There is a higher percentage of patients from an ethnic background formally admitted and detained under a section of the mental health act compared to the percentage of White British patients, but this has decreased as a percentage of the whole detained population from 27% in 2009 to 24% in 2010 Apart from seclusion, the percentage of patients from an ethnic background recorded as having incidents of selfharm, assault, accident and restraint is lower than the percentage of white British The 2010 Trust results for ethnicity have been compared with the 2001 national census results and can be viewed in Appendix 3. The main recommendation is: Presentation and distribution of the results to the Business Delivery Units and the assistant directors for the formulation of action plans. Distribution to relevant Trust wide action Groups, Diversity TAG, Practise Effectiveness TAG and Clinical Governance and Clinical Safety Committee. Page 3

On the 31 st March 2010, the Trust participated in the sixth National Mental Health and Ethnicity Census Count Me In. The purpose of the national survey is to improve services for patients from black and minority ethnic communities. This report presents a summary of results from the census and a comparison with the main results of the 2008 and 2009 census. A separate report is available which breaks down the results by Business Development Unit. 1.1 Aim To provide a snapshot of census information on all inpatients within the Trust on a particular date. 1.2 Objectives The main objectives of the audit are: To provide patient information on ethnicity, language, religion, sexuality to support future service provision To make a comparison with the results of the 2008 and 2009 census To provide results that are comparable with other trusts and with national benchmarks 1.3 Methodology The census sheet (see Appendix 1) was produced nationally with a guidance sheet and was used to record census information for each inpatient on the ward or on leave at midnight on the 31 st March. Some of the information was provided centrally from the Performance and information team, some had to be completed by staff from their records and some by staff in conjunction with the patient or relative. In order to maintain confidentiality the census sheets were hand delivered and collected. 1.4 Sample size The census was to be completed for all inpatients including Adult Services, Older People s Services, Learning Disability Services and Forensic and Secure Services. A total of 443 census sheets were completed for the Trust. Page 5

10 1.5 Limitations Some of the issues encountered during the census period included: Changes to the audit tool and code sheet from the Care Quality Commission Problems with the instruction/code sheet and the lack of clarity of some questions on the audit sheet Lack of care in completion of audit tools Changes to the audit tool and inclusion of new questions Inclusion of patients not in hospital but on community treatment orders information not easily available for completion of the tools 1.6 Staff Involved Dawn Stephenson Gillian Marley Stephen Pidgeon Suzy Whitehead Liam Redican Director of corporate development Clinical governance support team Project lead Performance and information Project development analyst CGST Clinical audit facilitator CGST Information and project support officer Page 6

11 2. OVERALL RESULTS AND COMPARISON WITH 2008 AND 2009 The benchmark was set in 2005 with the first Trust wide ethnic census of inpatients. There were some changes in both the data required and the population included from 2005 to 2006 and changes again to some categories in 2007 and again in 2008 and once again in 2010, therefore it is impossible to make a comparison of the whole of the census information for the last 3 years. In 2005 information on asylum seekers was required and in 2006 a question on sexual orientation was included. In 2008 more questions around single sex accommodation were included and in 2010 questions on deprivation of liberty were included. In 2005 patients with a learning disability were not included, but have been included for the last 5 years. Due to space limitations comparisons have been made where possible for 2008, 2009 and It must be noted that information on patients on community treatment orders (CTO) was also requested, as these were not inpatients the same audit tool was not appropriate and therefore the full range of information is not available for all 443 patients. 2.1 Accommodation It was noted from the census sheets that 301 (75%) inpatients were not in single sex accommodation (wards / unit), 90 (22%) were in male only accommodation and 10 (3%) inpatients were in female only accommodation. This was a similar result to the previous years 77% in 2008, 73% in 2009 Questions were included regarding access to single sex toilet/bathing facilities, sleeping accommodation and a single sex day room: % of the sleeping accommodation is single sex % of the sleeping accommodation is single sex % of the sleeping accommodation is single sex % of the inpatients shared mixed toilet & bathing facilities % of the inpatients shared mixed toilet and bathing facilities % of the inpatients shared mixed toilet and bathing facilities % of the inpatients shared a dayroom with the opposite sex % of the inpatients shared a dayroom with the opposite sex % of the inpatients shared a dayroom with the opposite sex 32% of the inpatients continue to have to share lounge/day room facilities with members of the opposite sex, but only 5% sharing toilet and bathing facilities. This question was not applicable to the 42 service users on community treatment orders. Page 7

12 2.2 Gender inpatients 245 (61%) male, 156 (39%) female patients 2010 (CTO) 42 patients 26 (62%) male, 16 (38%) female patients inpatients 250 (65%) male, 135 (35%) female patients inpatients 255 (62%) male, 155 (38%) female patients The age range and gender has remained constant over the last 3 years. 2.3 Age Range The ages of the inpatients ranged from 18 to 88 years and 24 to 77 for CTO patients. Figure 1 shows the age range by gender for The age ranges for 2008 and 2009 are similar for the main group of inpatients aged between 25 and 54: /401 aged between 25 and 54 57% 2010 (CTO) 31/42 aged between 25 and 54 74% /385 aged between 25 and 54 56% /410 aged between 25 and 54 52% Figure Age range of respondents (n=443) Number of respondents male inpatient female inpatient total inpatient total CTO Age Range Page 8

13 2.4 Length of Admission The length of admission for the inpatients ranged from 1 day for some patients who had been admitted on the 31 st to 16 years for one patient from Newton Lodge. 2.5 Ethnic Category The following table shows the categories for the question on ethnicity: Table 1 Ethnic Category Ethnic Category Inpatient (n=401) 2010 (n=443) CTO (n=42) 2009 (n=385) 2008 (n=410) White British 312 (78%) 29 (69%) 300 (78%) 342 (83%) Caribbean black or black British 23 (6%) 3 (7%) 21 (5%) 17 (4%) Pakistani Asian or Asian British 27 (7%) 5 (12%) 18 (5%) 12 (3%) Indian Asian or Asian British 9 (2%) 3 3 Irish White & any other white background 13 (3%) 3 (7%) 15 (4%) 16 (4%) White & Black Caribbean, African & Asian 4 1 (2%) 7 (2%) 4 Bangladeshi & other Asian African & other black background 3 8 (2%) 3 Other ethnic group Not stated/patient refused 6 (2%) 1 (2%) 7 (2%) 5 Other ethnic groups/mixed backgrounds were: British Moroccan, Goa, and Kashmiri. In male inpatients, (24% of the total male patients) and 25 female inpatients (16% of the total female inpatients) were from an ethnic background (all nonwhite British excluding not stated/patient refused ). In male CTO patients, (31% of the total male patients) and 4 female CTO patients (25% of the total female patients) were from an ethnic background. 30% of the male inpatients aged between 16 and 34 were from an ethnic background this includes 1 CTO patient. In 2009, 57 male inpatients, (23% of the total male patients) and 21 female inpatients (16% of the total female inpatients) were from an ethnic background. 28% of the male inpatients aged between 18 and 34 were from an ethnic background.
