4 Quality Statement During 2009/10 Humber NHS Foundation Trust provided mental health, learning disability and addiction services for children, adults and older people across the City of Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire. We also provided forensic services to patients from the wider Yorkshire and Humber area. Our income in 2009/10 was 83.9 million and as at 31 March 2010 we had whole time equivalent staff in post. During 2009/10 monthly reports on the Trusts performance against national and local quality indicators were reported to the Trust Board, these public reports provided the Trust Board with up to date and accurate information on the quality of care delivery across our services. These Board level reports are part of a three tier performance management system which runs from Ward to Board and ensures that high quality care is at the heart of all we do. We also recognise that, in order to offer assurance to patients that we provide high-quality care, we must be able to demonstrate, through quality reporting, that we have high levels of reported patient satisfaction, services that are as safe as possible, and clinical outcomes that are higher than the national average. In 2008/09 the Trust published its first quality accounts and set five priorities for quality improvement for 2009/10 and has been reporting progress monthly to the Trust Board. These quality accounts represent our achievements for 2009/10 and following consultation with stakeholders, set our priorities for 2010/11. The Trust was successful in gaining Foundation Trust status on the 1st February 2010 and therefore this document represents our final quality account as a NHS Trust and our first Quality Report as a Foundation Trust. The document outlines: Increased accountability to the public for quality, explaining the quality of the care we offer and how we are seeking to improve and engage the Trust Board in leading the quality agenda. That we are proud that feedback from patients tells us that they are largely satisfied with our services. That we rank highly in national league tables, for example patient and staff experience. That over the past year, we have made some significant quality improvements: successfully improving privacy and dignity for our patients. That we have also made great progress in the prevention and control of healthcare-associated infections. Along with improving the quality of care for our patients, we also want to be an organisation where staff feel recognised and rewarded. We want staff to work within an environment where they are able to provide the highest quality of care possible. We recognise that there will always be challenges to meet and will continue to strive for the highest quality in all care provided, putting our patients at the heart of everything we do. The information contained in this document has been subject to robust internal review and, where applicable external verification. Therefore, to the best of my knowledge these accounts are a true and accurate reflection of the quality of care we deliver to the communities we serve.

6 Q.1 Trust Quality Assessment Q.1.1 Historic and current view of Trust s position for delivering high quality care The Care Quality Commission (CQC), formerly the Healthcare Commission, undertakes an annual health check. This quality account has reviewed the CQC assessment 2008/09 results and has compared with previous years and with other mental health trusts in the Yorkshire and the Humber Strategic Health Authority. Our Trust was rated excellent for quality of services and good for the use of resources for the second year running based on performance in 2008/09. These results place our Trust alongside the best performers locally, regionally and nationally. As part of the East Coast Audit Consortium s 2009/10 annual plan for the Humber NHS Foundation Trust, a review has been performed to ensure that the Trust has a robust system for demonstrating compliance with the Standards for Better Health, and that there are effective reporting mechanisms in place to fully evidence the midyear declaration for 2009/10. The East Coast Audit Consortium have offered significant assurance that the Trust has developed and implemented a robust system for demonstrating compliance with the Standards for Better Health, and has a clearly auditable and linked process. The East Coast Audit Consortium sample testing of seven standards indicated that within the Trust there is a sufficient body of documentary evidence to support the Trust s fully met annual declaration for 2009/10. 6 QUALITY REPORT 2009 to 2010 Humber Mental Health Teaching Trust Humber NHS Foundation Trust

7 Q.1 Trust Quality Assessment Q.1.2 Overview of governance arrangements The keys to effective governance within the Trust are robust integrated committee structures and management processes, which give the Board of Directors confidence that all risks are being effectively controlled and managed and that attention is focused on the core business of the organisation to care for and treat patients. The Board committee structure is evaluated for effectiveness on an ongoing basis by the Board of Directors and committee members. Q.1.3 How we have prioritised our quality improvement initiatives To determine these priorities, we reviewed our clinical performance against Key Performance Indicators for the year. Through a series of reviews we assessed each initiative in terms of: impact on improving quality through considering the likely improvement in safety, clinical outcomes and experience feasibility, in terms of the ease of implementation, resources required and likely time to completion or delivery Clinical Governance Strategy We have an established Clinical Governance strategy supporting high quality care, which is underpinned by compliance with the Health Care Standards. This strategy provides a vision for the strategic development of Clinical Governance throughout the Trust and helps demonstrate its direction in the next three years towards the delivery of excellent mental health and learning disability services for both our patients and carers.

8 Q.1 Trust Quality Assessment Q.1.4 Our 2009/10 selected priorities and proposed initiatives updates Our Trust uses a Traffic Light system to report on performance and on the quality of services, e.g. Green = Good, Amber = Fair and Red = Weak. This is translated to reflect the organisation s performance on the selected priorities and initiatives. To achieve quality performance our traffic light system has allowed our Trust to: monitor critical clinical processes and activities using metrics of clinical and corporate performance that trigger alerts when potential problems arise analyse the root cause of problems by exploring relevant and timely information from multiple perspectives and at various levels of detail manage people and processes to improve decisions, optimise performance, and steer the organisation in the right direction. The following were the priorities and updates for 2009/10 Priority 1: Single Sex Accommodation Priority 2: PEAT (cleaning, food and infection control) Priority 3: 7 day follow-ups to patients following discharge from an inpatient stay Priority 4: To prevent delays in discharge from inpatient stays Priority 5: Gatekeeping/Single Point of Access to ensure a multi-disciplinary Approach to admission to an inpatient ward 8 QUALITY REPORT 2009 to 2010 Humber Mental Health Teaching Trust Humber NHS Foundation Trust

9 Priority 1: Single Sex Accommodation Description of issue and rationale for prioritising: All Trusts must be compliant with the same sex accommodation requirements by 2010 including the Department of Health minimum standards of: no shared sleeping accommodation no shared toilets patients do not have to pass through opposite sex facilities to access their own Aim/Goal: To ensure that our Trust is compliant by Position as at 31/03/2010 All our inpatient units are fully compliant. However, the Trust not only wants to meet the target, but to exceed it, therefore it acknowledges that further work is required at Townend Court to enhance the facilities provided to our learning disability inpatients. Further information on our work to deliver same sex accommodation Every patient has the right to receive high quality care that is safe, effective and respects their privacy and dignity. The Humber NHS Foundation Trust is committed to providing every service user who is receiving services within our inpatient units with same sex accommodation, because it helps to safeguard their privacy and dignity when they are often at their most vulnerable. The majority of our inpatient services are provided within single bedded rooms. Where patients have to share a room this will be with members of the same sex, and same sex toilets and bathrooms will be close to their bed area. Lounges for women only use are available on all of our inpatient units on request. Looking back to 2009/10, how have we measured success? By seeking the views of people who have used Humber NHS Foundation Trust inpatient services. The Trust carried out regular patient surveys to ensure that the standards have been maintained. We have regularly updated the Trust Board on how our inpatient services are viewed by patients in terms of privacy and dignity issues. These reports have been published on our website. Humber Mental Health Teaching Trust Humber NHS Foundation Trust QUALITY REPORT 2009 to

10 Priority 2: PEAT (cleaning, food and infection control) Description of issue and rationale for prioritising: The Clean Hospitals Programme has been implemented and monitored by the Patient Environment Action Team (PEAT) and involves patients and carers. For this year the programme has been adapted to reflect the changing expectations of patients, the way the NHS is organised and to ensure that the results of the programme provide an accurate picture of the standards that should be achieved. Aim/Goal: To maintain and improve on previous PEAT scores. Position as at 31/03/2010 Our focus in 2009/10 was on cleanliness. Although this was not a mandatory requirement, the Trust completed 90% of deep cleans, excluding the forensic units. Within the forensic units, a limited deep clean has taken place due to building works. We have undertaken a full analysis of all PEAT assessments. The data gathered guides the Trust in producing 2009/10 s Clean Hospital Programme. To support this programme, the total capital allocation awarded to address Privacy and Dignity standards, including same sex accommodation, was 253,500. At December 2009, the Trust was reporting two units which were attaining unacceptable overall scores. Following proactive activity, we can now confirm that one of these units is reported as very good with a PEAT score of 95% and the other unit reported as acceptable with a PEAT score of 90% ensuring that the Trust is fully compliant with the Clean Hospital Programme. Looking back to 2009/10, how have we measured success? By seeking the views of people who use Humber NHS Foundation Trust inpatient services. The Trust has regularly surveyed the patients of inpatient units to ensure that the standards of food and cleanliness are maintained or improved. 10 QUALITY REPORT 2009 to 2010 Humber Mental Health Teaching Trust Humber NHS Foundation Trust

11 Priority 3: 7 Day Follow-up Description of issue and rationale for prioritising: Supported by the evidence set out in the National Suicide Prevention Strategy for England (Professor Louis Appleby 2002), it is recognised that anybody being discharged from inpatient care should be contacted by a mental health professional, either face to face or by telephone, within seven days of that discharge. Aim/Goal: To ensure that everyone who is discharged from our inpatient care is followed up within the required criteria. Exceptions to this are: people who die within seven days of discharge where legal precedence has forced the removal of a patient from the country patients discharged or transferred to other NHS hospital for psychiatric treatment Position as at 31/03/2010 For Quarter 4 the 7 day follow up rate Trustwide was 100%. The graph below shows that the Trust has achieved a 100% follow up rate for seven months of the last financial year (09/10) and has consistently achieved or been above the national target of 95% for the other five months. Looking back to 2009/10, how have we measured success? In July 2009 the Performance Team implemented a more robust pro-active process for the tracking of discharges and 7 day follow-ups. This, along with the standard that all patients should be seen face to face within seven days of discharge and that telephone contact should only be used as last resort, has had a positive impact by increasing the Trustwide average 7 day follow-up rate from 95.02% (April 08 to March 09), 0.02% above the national target, to 98.73% (April 2009 to March 2010) which is 3.73% above the national target. 102% 100% 98% 96% 94% 92% 90% 88% Trustwide Figures for 7 Day Follow-up 2008/ /10 86% 84% 82% Apr-09 May-09 Jun-09 July-09 Aug-09 Sept-09 Oct-09 Nov-09 Dec-09 Jan-10 Feb-10 Mar-10 Target 2008/ /10 95% 95% 95% 95% 95% 95% 95% 95% 95% 95% 95% 95% 98% 89% 94% 95% 93% 96% 96% 96% 97% 96% 96% 95% 100% 95% 96% 97% 100% 98% 100% 100% 98% 100% 100% 100% Humber Mental Health Teaching Trust Humber NHS Foundation Trust QUALITY REPORT 2009 to

12 Priority 4: Delayed Discharges Description of issue and rationale for prioritising: In the last quarter of 2008/9 our Trust was 2% above the national measure of 7.5%. Our traffic light rating for this period was weak and there was an expectation that delays in discharges would be kept to a minimum. Aim/Goal: To reduce the number of delayed discharges in the Trust below the national key performance indicator set of 7.5%. Position as at 31/03/2010 In Quarter 4 of our Trust had an overall delayed discharge rate of 6.16%, this being a favourable 1.34% below the national target of 7.5%. As Care Quality Commission only examines delayed discharges where NHS provision is the delaying factor, this reduced the figure significantly to show the Trust as being a favourable 3.98% below the national measure of 7.5%. Looking back to 2009/10, how have we measured success? As part of a transition programme, over 2009/10 Humber NHS Foundation Trust has worked in collaboration with a local private provider who offers long term care for older people and for patients no longer requiring treatment within an NHS hospital. Four patients in our older people s services who were classified as "Delayed Discharges have now been successfully transferred to more suitable accommodation. As a Trust we are still working collaboratively with the private sector to maintain high quality of care. 12% Delayed Discharge Figures 2009/10 10% 8% 6% 4% 2% Target 0% Apr-09 May-09 Jun-09 July-09 Aug-09 Sept-09 Oct-09 Nov-09 Dec-09 Jan-10 Feb-10 Mar QUALITY REPORT 2009 to 2010 Humber Mental Health Teaching Trust Humber NHS Foundation Trust

13 Priority 5: Gatekeeping/Single Point of Access Description of issue and rationale for prioritising: To comply with Mental Health Policy implementation guidance Crisis Resolution Home Treatment (CRHT) must ensure that all admissions to an inpatient unit have a Gatekeeping assessment (an admission has been gate kept when a multidisciplinary decision includes CRHT staff agreeing that home treatment is not a suitable alternative). Aim/Goal: 90% Position as at 31/03/ % Single Point of Access This service is accessed by patients at the start of their mental health journey (ease of access) and quickly refers callers to the most appropriate NHS resource. In such circumstances appropriate means the service best able to clinically meet patient needs in a timely manner. Gatekeeping Assessments This is the role CRHT teams play in deciding who needs to be treated in hospital and who can be treated at home. In the initial assessment by the team, additional information is sought, with patient permission, from family and friends to gain a full picture of how mentally ill the person is and the risk they present to themselves and/or others. Following assessment, the community services then review where best that patient s needs can be met. Looking back to 2009/10, how have we measured success? We have looked at performance data from the existing Single Point of Access Service in Hull with a view to implementing this model in the East Riding Business Unit. 102% Gatekeeping Figures 2009/10 100% 98% 96% 94% 92% 90% 88% Apr-09 May-09 Jun-09 July-09 Aug-09 Sept-09 Oct-09 Nov-09 Dec-09 Jan-10 Feb-10 Mar-10 Humber Mental Health Teaching Trust Humber NHS Foundation Trust QUALITY REPORT 2009 to

14 Q.1 Trust Quality Assessment Q.1.5 How did we review our services The Trust provides services for Mental Health, Learning Disability and Addictions specialties/areas. For 2009/10 the Trust has undertaken 29 service reviews. The data from these audits has been presented and discussed at relevant committees, clinical networks and clinical teams who have reviewed the available data on the quality of care in their sections of these specialties/areas. The Trust has undertaken specific reviews in the following areas; Working Age Adult 8 Older People 2 Addictions 5 Children s 5 Learning Disability 2 All Service Areas 7 TOTAL 29 The relevant committees and clinical networks have used the results of these reviews to develop plans for improving the quality of the Trust s services. The Trust has robust governance arrangements in place to manage any adverse incidents. For this reporting period we have undertaken 30 serious untoward incident (SUIs) investigations and 14 management reviews. Outcomes found during these investigations have been shared with all relevant parties and any lessons learnt are acted upon. Information on participation in clinical audits The Trust was eligible to participate in three national clinical audits and related clinical quality data collection programmes, such as national confidential enquiries, covering services it provides.

18 Q.1 Trust Quality Assessment Commissioning for Quality and Innovation (CQUIN) CQUIN are measures which determine whether we achieve quality goals or an element of the quality goal. These achievements are on the basis of which CQUIN payments are made. 2009/10 was the first year in which CQUIN was implemented for mental health trusts, in this first year the Trust was required to demonstrate its ability to report on quality improvement and innovation goals which were agreed between the Provider and its Commissioners through the CQUIN payment framework. The Trust achieved this and was awarded a maximum quality payment of 314,749, this is broken down as follows:- Commissioner Final CQUIN payments 2009/10 Commissioner Final CQUIN payments 2009/10 NHS Hull 149,987 NHS East Riding of Yorkshire 117,772 Commissioner Final CQUIN payments 2009/10 NHS Barnsley 47, QUALITY REPORT 2009 to 2010 Humber Mental Health Teaching Trust Humber NHS Foundation Trust

19 Comments from our Commissioners and other key stakeholders NHS Hull I welcome the opportunity to review and comment on the Draft Quality Report for Humber NHS Foundation Trust. I can confirm that, to the best of my knowledge the report is a true and accurate reflection of the quality of care delivered by Humber NHS Foundation Trust and that the data and information contained in the report is accurate. Our joint commitment to continuous quality improvement and learning lessons has led us to restructure our formal contracting process so there is a specific focus on quality. This allows us to scrutinise issues of quality and outcomes with the same rigour that contracting has previously afforded to finance and performance. The development of local scrutiny of serious and untoward incidents allows us to monitor action plans locally, collect evidence of lessons learnt and revise specifications and services if necessary. During the period covered by this report Humber NHS Foundation Trust, NHS Hull and NHS East Riding of Yorkshire accepted the findings of a joint Independent Inquiry (SUI Reference 2005/95 and SUI Reference 2003/1578) commissioned by Yorkshire and the Humber Strategic Health Authority. An action plan was produced which addressed the recommendations from the Independent Inquiry reports, and has been thoroughly implemented. As commissioners and provider we have had significant input into the shaping of both regional and local CQUIN schemes mentioned in the report and will continue to set challenging targets in order to provide incentives to improve services and service user experience.

20 Comments from our Commissioners and other key stakeholders NHS East Riding of Yorkshire We would like to see a continuation of the positive working between Humber NHS Foundation Trust and NHS East Riding of Yorkshire to deliver improved quality of patient care and the patient experience. It is encouraging to see local quality standards (CQUINS) reflecting commissioner priorities within the Quality Account. We would welcome further developments in capturing the patient experience to inform service delivery and how some of the targets identified translate into improved outcomes for patients.

21 Comments from our Commissioners and other key stakeholders Hull Local Involvement Network (LINk) Hull LINk welcomes the opportunity to comment on the Trust s Quality Accounts. Since the LINk was set up a very constructive relationship has been built up with the Trust, enabling us to engage with the service to deliver our key aim of improved services for patients. In our view the document is representative and provides comprehensive coverage of the Trust s services. It is encouraging that the Trust is meeting the same sex accommodation requirements for inpatients and also the seven day follow up for discharged patients. We also welcome the progress made in reducing delayed discharges. The introduction of the Single Point of Access has been a key development in the past year and we are encouraged that the system is helping patients reach the most appropriate NHS resource. A major item on our work plan this year was our enquiry into mental health services for young people. This involved gathering information and feedback from groups supporting young people and a survey of people with experience of services. Over 100 people and groups had their say on this issue. Our resulting report included recommendations around: improving transition between children s and adult s services; involving young people in how services are designed; and improving publicity and awareness of services. In response the Trust committed to formalise protocols regarding transition between services, including the single point of access services, interagency link team and the child and adolescent mental health service. The Trust was able to highlight a lot of activity to engage young people and made us aware of a forthcoming overall service evaluation.
