1 MINDING THE GAP COMMUNITY AND OLDER PEOPLE S MENTAL HEALTH SERVICE FRAMEWORK FOR: GOVERNANCE ASSURANCE AND PERFORMANCE.
2 1. INTRODUCTION AND CONTEXT Providing, delivering and developing the highest standards of care is an ambition shared across the Community and Older People s Mental Health Service in providing a complex range of inpatient and locality services to the communities we serve. The range of services delivered across many localities and disciplines requires a systematic approach to support staff to have the information they need to provide safe, high quality care as well as an opportunity to directly influence the way in which services are developed and governed. Minding the GAP is a structured approach to support the governance and communication across and within the Care Group, but also to provide a direct link to the wider Trust Governance Structure. Minding the GAP utilises the Care Quality Commission Key Lines of Enquiry (KLoE) to structure an approach to care group governance which aims to support all staff to understand, contribute to and achieve the highest standards of care, the structure will help us to answer the 5 key questions: - Are we safe? - Are we effective? - Are we caring? - Are we responsive? - Are we well led? Linked to the Trust Clinical Governance and Quality Reporting Structure (Appendix 1) Minding the GAP extends the structure of clinical governance and performance management to all services and staff within the care group in a network of structured conversations designed to support effective, safe, compassionate, responsive and well led services. Section 2 below describes the system to be established to achieve these aims.
