1 NATIONAL CO-ORDINATING NETWORK FOR FORENSIC AND HEALTHCARE SERVICES FOR PEOPLE IN POLICE CARE NETWORK STRUCTURE Draft v0.18 Updated 18 February

2 1. Introduction and Purpose of Document The Scottish Government has decided that healthcare and forensic services for people in police care should, from 1 April 2014, be provided by NHS Scotland within joint NHS / Police Scotland local and regional partnerships. The provision of healthcare in custody suites, and for children and adults in police care is a statutory responsibility of NHS Boards. The provision of forensic services is, on the other hand, a statutory responsibility of Police Scotland. In practice, a clear separation of the provision of healthcare and forensic medical services is often difficult and impractical. The Scottish Government has therefore decided that NHS Scotland should provide appropriate forensic medical services, which require forensic clinical skills, on behalf of Police Scotland within joint local/regional NHS / Police Scotland partnerships. Responsibility for forensic medical services will remain with the police even although delivery will be a matter for the NHS. This is a significant change over previous arrangements in which the 8 Scottish Police Forces procured healthcare and forensic medical services for people in custody from a variety of sources including independent Forensic Physicians. The management of the change requires robust governance, service involvement and project management throughout to ensure successful implementation. Close working between NHS Scotland and Police Scotland is essential. After implementation, a vehicle to support networking across geographical, multi agency and professional boundaries will be needed in support of local partnerships to ensure equity, mutual support and service co-ordination across the different agencies and professional groups involved. The purpose of this document is to clarify the overall network structure; its governance arrangements; the membership and the function, role and responsibilities of each proposed group, and of individual members within groups / subgroups; the reporting structure between groups; and the escalation procedures. 2

3 2. National Co-ordinating Network for Healthcare and Forensic Services for People in Police Care 2.1 Remit The overall remit of the Co-ordinating Network is to: facilitate and help to ensure partnership arrangements are in place for the delivery of forensic and healthcare services for people in police custody in all NHS Boards/Regional Collaboratives by 1 April 2014 and that the responsibility for delivery is with the NHS Boards by this time. oversee the transfer of funds from Police Scotland to NHS Scotland by 1 April extend the work in local / regional partnerships to improve health, reduce care inequalities, and integrate care within community pathways. extend partnerships to encompass areas beyond healthcare and forensic services for people in custody suites, to include other people in police care for example child sex and serious physical abuse, adult sexual assault. support the development of the models of care to achieve a cost effective, high quality service at local, regional and national level. establish quality standards for the delivery of care in appropriate facilities. establish consistent data collection, audit and research that will develop an evidenced informed approach. develop the workforce, training and education based on competency frameworks. form appropriate links with other relevant Networks such as the National Prisoner Healthcare Network and the Forensic Mental Health Network, and to ensure minimal duplication of effort. 2.2 Ways of working The Network will achieve its remit through the establishment, co-ordination and support of a network structure which allocates specific areas of responsibility to a range of topic specific, and geographical subgroups, while providing overall strategic direction through a national Governance Board; and co-ordination of the work of the network through a National Operational Support Group. This will work in a collaborative/joint working approach. 3

4 2.3 Network Governance Structure The proposed structure is illustrated in the diagram below. It comprises: - A high level strategic Co-ordinating Network Board involving senior representatives of NHS Scotland, Police Scotland, Scottish Police Authority, Crown Office Procurator Fiscal Service, Social Work, Scottish Government Health and Social Care and Justice Directorates - An Operational Support Group bringing together the chairs of the network sub groups along with clinical / professional representation - 3 regional collaborations overseeing and co-ordinating implementation of the change and ongoing provision of services through local NHS / Police Scotland partnerships at NHS Board level - A range of standing delivery support groups to provide ongoing support and co-ordination of specific aspects of service delivery and to lead and support a process of continuous quality improvement to improve the quality of healthcare and forensic services and maximise health gain - A range of topic specific workstreams commissioned for a short period to address a specific task 4
