5 Preface I am delighted to introduce this report from the Quality Network for Forensic Mental Health Services, summarising the key findings of the third annual peer-review Cycle of 94 low secure units across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. In addition to our core work of the self and peer-reviews, this year the Quality Network ran two focused workshops, one on the role of front line staff in forensic services and the other on ways in which patients and friends and families of those in low secure care can be further engaged in the Quality Network s self and peer-review processes. The outcomes of this activity is summarised in the introduction to this report and underlines the importance that the Quality Network places on patients, family and friends being a central and proactive part of our bottom-up approach to overall quality improvement. The Project Team would like to draw your attention to Appendix C of this report (Examples of Good Practice) which provides a great resource for services to converse about experiences, advise each other and ultimately share best practice about what member services are doing well. I would like to encourage you to contact each other to further strengthen your services and quality improvement. Quazi Haque, Chair Advisory Group 5

7 This Report This annual report is structured around the six sections of the Standards for Low Secure Services 1. The criteria forming the basis of the review process have been mapped onto the Care Quality Commission s Essential Standards of Quality and Safety 2. This supports services to provide evidence of meeting these standards via participation in the Quality Network s self- and peer-reviews. The body of the report highlights achievements, areas for improvement, and gives examples of solutions to common problems. For anonymity purposes each unit has been assigned a number; the graphs on the following pages have been ordered on the vertical axis by score so it is possible to see where each unit lies in comparison with the lowest, the highest and the average. The average score for each section has also been highlighted on the graphs. Appendix A is a full summary of the extent to which the 94 services met each criteria. How members of the Quality Network for Forensic Mental Health Services can use this report: How well are we doing overall in comparison with the Quality Network? Your unit s local report provides you with a summary of the number of criteria met, partly met and unmet, which then gives an average score for each area. These averages enabled us to obtain a measure of your unit s overall performance for each section of the criteria. Average scores for Cycle 3 are detailed in the key findings and in Appendix A so you can immediately see how well you are doing compared with the other units in the Quality Network. Each member has also been assigned a unique team number so that you can use the graphs in this report to compare yourselves with the rest of the Quality Network. What are the key areas of variance within the Quality Network? The key findings highlight areas identified within each section that best differentiate services from one another, and also those criteria considered to be critical to the quality of care provided. How can we identify other services that could provide advice or support on specific areas of service development? A summary of good practice that peer-review teams have identified during reviews is presented in Appendix C to aid information sharing amongst the Quality Network s members. Acknowledgements: The Project Team gratefully acknowledges: The staff in member units who organised, attended and received peer-reviews. Patients in member units who took part in the peer-review of their unit. The Patient Reviewers and Family and Friends Representatives for their continuing work with the Quality Network.

10 Overview This section provides an overview of the findings from the Cycle 3 review period. Figure 1 gives the average percentage of met criteria in each standard area, and Figure 2 details the total percentage of met criteria across all the units. Figure 1: Average Percentage of Met Criteria per Section On average, services were found to be compliant with 90% of criteria across the standard areas. As the graph above highlights, Admission, Physical Healthcare, Discharge and Procedural Security are the areas in which units scored most highly. On average services met 96% of the criteria in these areas. Further to this, it is commendable that services were found compliant with 91% of the Workforce and Recovery criteria, 89% of Physical Security and 87% of Equalities criteria. Service Environment is an area for ongoing improvement for our low secure members, with only 78% of criteria being met in this area. This is due to services struggling to fully meet standards in relation to patient controlled observation panels in bedroom doors, separate child visiting facilities, and lines of sight, with scores of 57%, 49% and 40% fully met respectively. Figure 2, shows the average percentage of fully met criteria across all standard areas for all participating low secure services. 10

It is pleasing to see that there have been improvements across the board this Cycle. Overall, since the low secure network was established, there have been improvements in a range of standard areas. Standard area % increase Cycle 1-3 Admission 2 Recovery 4 Physical Healthcare 1 Discharge 1 Physical Security 5 Relational Security 6 Procedural Security 3 Service Environment 5 Workforce 1 Equalities 2 It is highly commendable that, over the last three Cycles, there has been an 18% increase in services seeking and taking into account the views of patients and carers in the designing, planning and improvement of services. An additional 14% of services now have an implemented policy setting out the consultation and involvement of carers in the care provided. There are some criteria however, for which we have seen a year on year decrease in the percentage of services able to meet them. There has been a 12% decrease in the 12

13 number of services able to provide patients with meals which are of a high quality, offer choice, address nutritional/balanced diet and specific dietary requirements and which are also sufficient in quantity, are varied and appealing and reflect individual s cultural and religious needs. Notably there has also been a 7% decrease in the number of services who have a cohesive multi-disciplinary team with the capacity and capability to meet the needs of their patients. 13

15 Introduction The Quality Network for Forensic Mental Health Services was set up in 2006 at the College Centre for Quality Improvement. The network was initially set up for medium secure services. For the past nine years it has been honing and consolidating structures and processes. In , the peer-review process was extended to low secure services and the third annual Cycle for these services is now complete. This report summarises the aggregated results of the reviews undertaken across 94 low secure units (232 wards) in England, Wales and Northern Ireland during Using a multi-disciplinary approach, the Quality Network facilitates quality improvement and change through a supportive peer-review process. The Quality Network serves to identify areas of good practice and achievement, as well as areas for improvement by promoting a culture of openness and enquiry between peers. A fundamental principle of the Quality Network is that patients, frontline staff and family and friends of patients are an integral part of sustainable quality improvement; this is reflected in the structures and processes used by the project. Member units use the results of reviews to develop action plans in order to achieve year on year improvement. They are also encouraged to share their final results with key stakeholders, including commissioners, CQC, health and local authorities, those making referrals to their services and local patient and family and friends groups. What does the Quality Network for Forensic Mental Health Services do? The Quality Network s activities include: Developing and applying standards for forensic mental health services through a system of self and external peer-review; Producing reports for participating services that highlight areas of achievement and areas for improvement in relation to service standards; Providing a national benchmarking service to allow services to compare their activity with other services; Facilitating information-sharing about best practice between members of the Network; Organising workshops to support services to share information and troubleshoot on shared problem areas; Supporting routine data collection, e.g. regarding clinical and cost outcomes; Promoting patient and family and friends involvement at all stages of the review process. A full description of the Quality Network s review process and activities can be found in Appendix D. 15

16 Responding to Recommendations from Cycle 2 The Quality Network made three recommendations in response to the key areas for improvement during peer-reviews in Cycle 2 ( ). For each recommendation, the Quality Network team organised opportunities via various media to share and implement good practice in these areas. These included newsletters and workshops for services to learn from each other outside of the core peer-review process. This work has been disseminated across the Network and posted on the website 3. Recommendation 1: Patient Involvement Patient involvement was identified as a challenge for many services. The Quality Network recommended prioritising the collection of feedback from patients ensuring this informs service development and that this is fed back to patients. The Quality Network also aimed to ensure patients are involved in all aspects of the CPA process, including reading and helping write the report, prior to and after the meeting. This provides patients with the opportunity to add their views and be included in all parts of the CPA meeting. The Quality Network hopes to support services to look at other ways to involve patients within the service. In response to this recommendation the Quality Network held an event on 16 April 2015, which focused on engaging patients. The workshop was well attended by patients and staff and provided a platform for the sharing of good practice and troubleshooting problems. It looked at ways of increasing patients involvement in their care within secure services and also in the quality improvement work of the Quality Network itself. Recommendation 2: Family and Friends Involvement Involving family and friends was also found to be a challenge. The Quality Network recommended that services develop regular family and friends groups and hold open days where family and friends of patients can visit the ward. The Quality Network also recommended that services create a directory of carer advocacy services to signpost family and friends to their local advocacy service. In addition it was recommended by the Quality Network that services review ways, in consultation with family and friends, to provide support sessions and to signpost and help family and friends to access psychological support through their own GPs. Finally, the Quality Network recommended nominating a member of staff at a service to be the Family and Friends Coordinator. In response to this recommendation the Quality Network held an event on 16 April 2015 focusing on engaging family and friends. The workshop was well attended by family and friends representatives, staff and patients. The Quality Network also produced a themed newsletter for sharing good practice on family and friends involvement in low secure services. This can be found on the webpage: mentalhealth/lsu/news discussiongroup.aspx

17 Recommendation 3: Service Environment Service environment was found to be a challenge. The Quality Network aimed to support services to make best use of the space available to them, such as multi-purpose spaces which can be booked and suitable materials provided for that use i.e. religious texts or other artefacts. The Quality Network also recommended that services involve patients in the design and decoration of newly developed spaces as well as involving patients in the identification of blind spots when considering space management or the installation of mirrors or CCTV. In response to this recommendation the Quality Network published a themed edition of the elsu newsletter looking at facilities within low secure services to facilitate the sharing of good practice and information across the Network. This can be found on webpage: mentalhealth/lsu/news discussiongroup.aspx. 17

18 Patient Involvement The Quality Network for Forensic Mental Health Services has continued to develop and as a result, increased patient involvement during Four additional Patient Reviewers were recruited, taking the total number of Patient Reviewers to ten during this Cycle. Table 1 shows how the percentage of peer-review teams including Patient Reviewers has increased since Cycle 1. Table 1: Cycle 1 Cycle 2 Cycle 3 81% 87% 88% Each year the Quality Network has advertised across member services for Patient Reviewers to apply for the role. There is a job description and personal specification and applications are considered and shortlisted by the Project Team on this basis. Candidates who are shortlisted are then invited to attend an interview with members of the Quality Network Project Team and an existing Patient Reviewer. The Quality Network accepted applications from patients who are at various stages in their recovery. Some patients need to be escorted, others have been discharged from hospital and are living in the community and some have been recalled to hospital whilst being a Patient Reviewer. Part way through Cycle 3 the decision was made that Patient Reviewers who are living independently in the community would be eligible for overnight stays as appropriate for specific peer-reviews. A Patient Reviewer Clinical Advisor supports the Project Team in their work with Patient Reviewers and each Patient Reviewer is supported by a named member of the Project Team. This support includes induction training, annual contingency planning meetings (to clarify roles, risk and pre-empt any problems), annual review meetings, regular interim support and business meetings, and day-to-day telephone support around arrangements prior to peer-review visits. The Project Team are expected to: Coordinate the peer-review timetable and provide Patient Reviewers with this information. Provide support before and during the peer-review visits, e.g. the provision of peer-review pack information. Book travel to peer-reviews, Advisory Groups, support meetings, the Annual Forum and other events. Organise quarterly group support meetings. Provide weekly telephone support. Provide annual review meetings. Liaise with Patient Reviewers Care Coordinators. 18

19 Family and Friends Involvement At the beginning of Cycle 3, the Quality Network expanded the Friends and Family team by two. This is due to the growing number of services signing up to the Low Secure Quality Network along with the recommendations from the previous Cycle to involve family and friends of patients. In Cycle 3, the role of our Family and Friends Representatives has included: 1. Conduct telephone conferences with the family and friends of patients as part of the self-review process. 2. Contribute to newsletters. 3. Consult on standards. 4. Sit on the Advisory Group. 5. Present at workshops and events. Out of 94 low secure services, 85 services had calls take place with a family member, or friend of a patient from their service. This is an increase of 22% from Cycle 2. The Representatives have been significantly involved in the events of Cycle 3, presenting at most of the events held by the Network this year, including a workshop on the role of frontline staff in secure services and the Low Secure Annual Forum Most notably, three of the Family and Friends Representatives co-facilitated and presented at a workshop in April 2015; Engaging Patients, Family and Friends in the Quality Network s Review Process. The presentations were powerful and thought-provoking, and raised many important areas for discussion. As of Cycle 3, we promoted two of our Representatives into lead roles due to their commitment to the Quality Network and their passion in promoting the involvement of family and friends in secure services. This role entails taking a lead on induction training and offering support by telephone to new Representatives, taking a lead on presentations and coordinating the involvement of other Representatives, for instance in developing new materials. Furthermore, we have two Family and Friends Representatives that sit on the Quality Network s Advisory Group. They provide updates on the current involvement of family and friends within the Network and they suggest ways of how this can be developed. A member of the Project Team supports the Family and Friends Representatives in carrying out their roles. This support includes a comprehensive induction and twice yearly review meetings, as well as telephone and contact. Guidance and practice sessions are also offered to those presenting at events or submitting newsletter articles. 19

20 Cycle 3: A total of 232 wards across 94 low secure units participated in the third annual Cycle. The self-review tools were completed by member units between July 2014 and April 2015, and the external peer-reviews were undertaken between September 2014 and May Out of the 94 member services reviewed 38 cater for women. These services were also reviewed against the Standards and Criteria for Women in Medium Secure Care as well as the Low Secure Criteria of the services provide care for patients with learning disabilities and were reviewed against the Standards for People with Learning Disabilities in Medium Secure Care 5. Finally two out of the 94 services reviewed cater for deaf patients and were reviewed against the Standards for Deaf People in Medium Secure Care 6. The services catering for women, learning disabilities and deaf patients were reviewed against the low secure standards as well as the medium secure specialist standards for these specific areas as it was found that the standards being reviewed were directly transferable to low secure settings. Approximately 342 staff participated as peer-reviewers, interviewing over 1000 staff and 560 patients in low secure units. Patient telephone conferences were undertaken as part of the self-review at 92% of the member units and 88% of peer-review teams included a Patient Reviewer.

24 Key Themes This section outlines the key issues that have emerged from the Cycle 3 reviews. It recommends actions that units can take in response to the areas of improvements raised and outlines the measures the Quality Network for Forensic Mental Health Services will take to support services. Equalities Patient involvement continues to be an ongoing challenge for many of our services. It was highlighted as a key issue in Cycle 2 and identified as a key focus for the Quality Network during Cycle 3. The Quality Network attempted to streamline this focus by gathering patient feedback through telephone conferences and sharing policies with visiting peer-review teams to draw their attention to this focus and share best practice. Despite the emphasis, and support, from the Network to member services, patient focus and pathways was continually raised as a challenge by the review teams. As many as 34% of our member services were unable to fully meet the standard around providing fresh food to patients that offers choice, is nutritionally balanced and is portioned correctly. This also includes services not being able to adequately offer patients alternatives when there are dietary or cultural requirements. The Quality Network would like to continue to encourage services to further grow their self-catering resources and accessibility for patients. Another area of challenge for member services in Cycle 3 was the use of feedback from patients and carers to improve the quality of the service. With many services suitably seeking and collecting the feedback of their patients and friends and families, a remainder of 21% of services are not utilising this information sufficiently to make changes to their services. In some cases this was a matter of communicating how patient and carer feedback has been used to make changes back to those individuals in a succinct way. As of Cycle 4 the Quality Network will be introducing online questionnaires to reach a wider cohort of individuals to gain feedback and this will be used to further support services in the improvements they can make when communicating with their patients and friends and families. In conclusion, the Quality Network has worked to support services with the areas raised above and in April 2015 a workshop was held based around the idea of engaging patients, friends and family in the Quality Network s self and peer-review process. The event was made up of a mixture of presentations, the sharing of personal accounts from Patient Reviewers and Family and Friends Representatives, as well as small group facilitated discussions. The event was well attended by staff and patients from across a wide range of member services. Service Environment During Cycle 3, review teams raised a number of issues around service environment and facilities. Almost half of member services were identified by their visiting peer-review teams to have issues with lines of sight in patient areas and on the wards. Whilst it is recognised that this issue is largely to do with the design, footprint and age of buildings it continues to be an important area of focus with an acknowledgment made by the Quality Network to incorporate innovative ways of supporting services with this. In addition, another theme that was raised throughout Cycle 3 with regard to environment and facilities is the provision of space for visiting purposes. It was found that 51% of 24

25 member services are unable to offer satisfactory space for child visits. This includes having a separate and appropriately furnished room for these visits to take place. Moreover, space for the practicing of faith was identified as a challenge with 37% of services not providing a multi-faith room available for patients to use. Again, there is recognition by the Quality Network that the theme of environment and facilities is limited by a service s building design and capacity for change. However, a themed edition of the low secure newsletter is due to be published to provide added insight and support to member services. Workforce With 36% of services not providing adequate supervision for members of staff on a monthly basis, this was highlighted to be an area of challenge for Cycle 3. The Quality Network would like to encourage and further support member services with their responsibilities to members of staff and to look at ways in which handovers, informal supervision, reflective practice and other forms of supervision can be used to strengthen this area. However, having said this, the aggregated data for Cycle 3 showed 97% of services regularly monitoring and auditing their staff uptake of supervision. The discrepancy between the two standards surrounding staff supervision emphasises the need for this to be an area of focus in Cycle 4. 25

26 Recommendations The following recommendations address the issues identified from the key themes previously discussed. T he Quality Network has outlined how it plans to support services in addressing these issues over the coming Cycle. Recommendation 1: Equalities Prioritise the collection of feedback from patients and family and friends ensuring this informs service development and that this is fed back to patients and family and friends. Encourage services to review other ways in which issues with the provision of food can be managed through self-catering or improving their food suppliers. Ensure patients are involved in designing menu choices and options. Support services to look at other ways to involve patients within the service. Recommendation 2: Service Environment Encourage the sharing of best practice to action issues relating to lines of sight and the difficulties that are presented by this due to the Physical Environment. Assist services in identifying separate and appropriate spaces for visiting, in particular child visits. Continue to assist services in the provision for space to enable patients to practice their faith in a dedicated and appropriate place. Recommendation 3: Workforce Work with services to review the lack of staff supervision taking place on a monthly basis across a significant number of our member services. Encourage services to offer other types of supervision and support them to look at how these can be embedded. Assist services to define the discrepancy between poor staff uptake of supervision and the successful ways in which services are monitoring and auditing supervision. What will the Quality Network for Forensic Mental Health Services do? Hold a number of themed workshops. Publish quarterly themed newsletters. The first edition of Cycle 4 will be published in September Continue to promote the LSU discussion forum to facilitate further discussions and dissemination of information. 26

27 Key Findings Key findings from each section have been highlighted. This includes areas of achievement and areas for improvement, as well as solutions and examples of good practice in each section from some of our member units. A graph showing the percentage of met criteria across all units is also provided for each section; this shows the units in order of achievement and provides the average score, allowing units to benchmark themselves against each other. 27

28 A: Model of Care 1: Admission Key Findings Number of criteria in Admission: 3 Average percentage of criteria fully met: 96% Range: % Achievements 100% of services ensure patients have an initial care plan in place within 24 hours of admission. 100% of services have a clear criterion for admission to and transfer and discharge from the service which is communicated with commissioners. This also includes 100% of services ensuring that the discharge procedures are operated in line with pathways. Areas for Improvement 16% of services do not meet the standard for all patients having an identified care coordinator or link person for the facilitation of ongoing links to the community and further support from their home area. Solutions Ensure all patients have a link person from their home area who is in regular contact with him/her and is invited to attend meetings throughout the patient s pathway. Ensure care coordinators are involved in the facilitation of ongoing links and the progress of patients' care pathways from admission through to discharge. Examples of Good Practice Cygnet Hospital Bierley: Staff visit patients prior to admission and give them an information booklet about the service. Wolfston House: Previous patients return to the service to co-facilitate groups and present on their personal testimonies of recovery to the whole patient group. Tony Hillis Unit: Community practice nurses and social workers from the patient s home area are invited to CPA meetings and ward rounds to maintain links with the community throughout a patient s pathway. North London Clinic: The service uses a buddy system for new patients. An existing patient will call the new admission and be present on the day of the visit to the ward to ensure any new admission has a friendly face on arrival. 28

30 2: Recovery Key Findings Number of criteria in Recovery: 18 Average percentage of criteria fully met: 91% Range: % Achievements 98% of services offer a variety of recreational activities and occupational facilities with 99% of services having a structured activity timetable in place in which patients engage. 98% of services take a recovery focused approach to addressing accommodation, employment and learning needs, including meaningful social contact and mainstream activities. 95% of services encourage and allow patients to negotiate with their care coordinators who they wish to invite to their CPA meetings. Areas for Improvement 24% of services do not have appropriate provisions for patients requiring a period of engagement and treatment away from the main patient group. 22% of services do not meet the standard for showing patients a copy of their final draft CPA report after the meeting. Solutions Ensure that all wards have access to a seclusion facility or de-escalation area without having to access another ward. Work with patients to ensure reports are completed and discussed one week before their CPA meeting. Ensure that patients are provided with written feedback after their CPA meetings and that they are provided with an opportunity to add their views. Examples of Good Practice Cheswold Park Hospital: The service has formed a patient and staff band who practice regularly and perform. Kemple View: The CPA process focuses on areas of recovery such as, relapse prevention, early warning signs, support networks and self-harm reduction. Kneesworth House Hospital: The service encourages patients to choose from a range of recovery tools available on the wards that best suit them and their recovery outcomes. St Andrew s Healthcare CAMHS: The education provision at the service achieved outstanding in their most recent Ofsted inspection. The centre also hosts educational trips including the Harry Potter Studios and war themed days out. 30

32 3: Physical Health Care Key Findings Number of criteria in Physical Health Care (inclusive of two female specific 8 criteria and one criterion for services with deaf patients): Average percentage of criteria fully met: 96% Range: % Achievements 100% of services routinely carry out full assessments of patient s physical and mental health needs. 95% of services provide general health promotion activities including screening, dietary advice and opportunities to exercise. 92% of services support female patients in accessing primary and secondary screening programmes. Areas for Improvement 13% of services are unable to offer female patient s access to a female General Practitioner. 5% of services do not have comprehensive access to a range of primary healthcare services. Solutions Review the need to establish a service level agreement with local primary care services. Look into registering all patients with a local General Practitioner service. Consider registering all patients with a local gender appropriate General Practitioner to ensure that appropriate screening is monitored. Examples of Good Practice Cygnet Hospital Blackheath: The service has a voucher incentive programme used to encourage patients to engage in exercise. Southview: Patients have a weekly Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) as part of their physical health checks. St Magnus Hospital: The service runs a balance improvement group and a falls clinic. The Spinney: There are many health initiatives visible at the service, including the traffic light system at the shop which monitors the amount of unhealthy foods patients can buy at any one time, as well as the successful Shape Up, Trim Down programme. 32

33 Data Label Figure 9: Percentage of met criteria for Physical Healthcare Percentage of Met Criteria Average 96% 33

34 4: Discharge Key Findings Number of criteria in Discharge: 3 Average percentage of criteria fully met: 96% Range: % Achievements 100% of services determine readiness for discharge of all patients based on multidisciplinary assessments. The multi-disciplinary team supports patients to develop and maintain links with community-based organisations in 99% of services. Areas for Improvement A total of 10% of services are unable to fully involve social workers, care coordinators and offender managers in care planning processes for treatment in their services, as well as post discharge follow-ups under Section 117 arrangements. Solutions Ensure all patients have involvement from social workers in their care planning and approach to discharge. Consider recruiting an in-house social worker who can actively work with the multi-disciplinary team to help with care planning processes and post-discharge follow-up. Examples of Good Practice 4 Bowlers Green: The service employs a liaison nurse who works closely with home area care coordinators and those working as the next point of care to ensure smooth, effective discharges. Northgate Hospital: Recovery and Outcomes meetings provide support for patients to develop and maintain links with the community and aid social interactions. Rathbone Low Secure Unit: The service has a Bridge Builder who facilitates links with the community, providing the patient group with access to a range of activities including the Recovery College. Bade Ward: Bade Ward uses their own forensic community team and step-down services where possible to prevent delays in discharges. Wells Road Centre: The service has good links with MAPPA and the local Victim Liaison Team, parole processes and the forensic community team for effective and long lasting discharges. 34

36 B: Safe and Therapeutic Environment 1: Physical Security Key Findings Number of criteria in Physical Security: 9 Average percentage of criteria fully met: 89% Range: % Achievements 95% of services have a perimeter fence that conforms to the BS358 standard and is a minimum of three metres in height. All keys held by reception in 95% of low secure services are accounted for at least twice in every 24-hour period. 96% of services have a robust system in place for the reporting and actioning of any identified ligature points or risks. Areas for Improvement 10% of services do not have a clearly delineated external perimeter in which their secure service sits. In as many as 24% of services the external perimeter does not fully maintain the service s integrity, privacy and/ or eliminate climb points or sufficiently manages risk. When reviewed, 26% of services had identified footholds or climb points on gates within their perimeters. Solutions Ensure all staff are clear on where the boundaries to the low secure service are. Review the bolts and locking mechanisms on the gates to remove any potential foot holds. Consider adding a mesh fitting over the windows so that patients still get fresh air but no contraband items can be passed through the gap in the windows. Examples of Good Practice Langdon Hospital: The service uses electronic meet the team and information boards based within the airlocks on each ward. St Mary s Hospital: All staff must undergo a key test and score 100% before being issued with keys. North London Clinic: Each ward has a Health and Safety Champion and a security nurse available on every shift for the management of ligature points and appropriate reporting. St Magnus Hospital: The service uses the Paxton key management system where all fobs are registered to individual members of staff and the fob links to a computer to identify exactly where staff members are within the unit. 36

38 2: Relational Security Key Findings Number of criteria in Relational Security (inclusive of three criteria for 12 services with patients with learning disabilities, two criteria for services with deaf patients and one female specific standard): Average percentage of criteria fully met: 83% Range: % Achievements 100% of deaf services provide care plans which are accessible and adapted for deaf patients. All learning disabilities services have a combination of nurses trained in mental health and learning disability. 95% of services have clear and effective systems for communication and handover within staff teams. Areas for Improvement Only 38% of services are able to ensure that overnight observations of female patients, in bedroom areas, are undertaken by a female member of staff. 30% of services do not have regular access to an accredited psychotherapist with psychodynamic or psychoanalytic training and forensic experience. 24% of services do not provide patients with access to a range of educational professionals which include teachers, a special education needs co-ordinator, an educational psychologist, or career guidance. Solutions Ensure all patient observations are respectful of patients wishing to get changed or needing momentary privacy. Continue to work with companies such as ASDAN to further develop education sessions which are available to all patients. Consider communicating with female patients the terms of their observations more clearly to avoid conflict over privacy. Examples of Good Practice Allington and Tartentfort Centre: The service has links with the University of Greenwich where patients are employed to be patients for student nurses to gain experience. The patients then rate the student on how well they did. Patients can also work in the canteen on site and do jobs on their ward. Cedar House : The service s education department is a registered ASDAN centre and the service has a teacher and teaching assistant. Rathbone Low Secure Unit: The service pays patients to sit on interview panels and do meet and greet roles. They are also training patients for peer-support worker roles. 38

40 3: Procedural Security Key Findings Number of criteria in Procedural Security (inclusive of three criteria for 15 services with patients with deaf patients and one female specific standard): Average percentage of criteria fully met: 96% Range: % Achievements All services have policies in place regarding observation, the control and prescribing of medication and drugs and visiting procedures, including child protection issues. 100% of services with female patients have a policy in place regarding restraint and seclusion which addresses the potential requirement for individualised care needs, for example previous trauma or abuse. All deaf services, where there are deaf staff, translate their relevant policies into British Sign Language (BSL) on DVD or communicate live in BSL, as well as being written in plain English. Areas for Improvement 19% of services do not have a policy on the prosecution of offences within the unit which is agreed with the police and CPS. 10% of low secure services do not have an up to date index of procedural security policies in place, including service contingency and business continuity plans. 6% of services did not have a clear complaints procedure in place. Solutions Ensure all policies are submitted to the Quality Network by the self-review deadline. Ensure there is an index of procedural security policies in place at the service. Ensure the service works with the police and CPS to ensure there is an up to date policy on the prosecution of offences. Examples of Good Practice All Saints: Interpreters are provided for deaf staff members to help them understand the policies in place around procedural security. Policies are made as accessible as possible to deaf staff and patients. Gerry Simon Clinic: Patients understand how to make a complaint via the PALS suggestions box which is in the activities area. St Mary s Hospital: The service gives one-to-one time to deaf patients to help them understand policies. Wells Road Centre: Policies regarding restraint and seclusion take into account physical healthcare needs. Seclusion care plans are implemented as soon as a patient enters seclusion, as well as post incident de-briefing in collaboration with advocacy. 40

42 C: Service Environment Key Findings Number of criteria in Service Environment: 16 Average percentage of criteria fully met: 78% Range: % Achievements All services have a policy on the use of forced medication, including rapid tranquilisation. 98% of services have an agreed approach to risk assessment including which planning tools are used. 98% of services provide patients with access to outside areas, including secure gardens and court yards, which is determined by an individual risk assessment and takes account of all factors that may assist escape, for example weather. Areas for Improvement 51% of services do not have separate, appropriately furnished facilities for children s visits. 59% of services have identified restricted lines of sight and concealed, unsecured areas on the wards. 37% of services do not have a multi-faith room which is available for use by all patients. 42% of services do not have observation panels with integrated blinds which can be operated by patients from the inside, with additional external override features for staff. Solutions If a room cannot be designated to child visiting, consider placing a box of toys and activities in the visiting room for when children visit. Review ways in which patients are able to control the vistamatic panels in their bedroom doors to ensure that privacy and dignity is maintained. Consider installing parabolic mirrors to help increase lines of sight for frontline staff. Examples of Good Practice Cygnet Hospital Harrow: The service is able to support the financial implications of travel for carers and family members. Alpha Hospital Sheffield: The service has excellent child visiting facilities. There is a baby changing facility next to reception and a hot drinks machine installed in the visiting area. Northgate Hospital: The service has a Getting to Know You scheme that invites visitors to give feedback and create plans with carers about how they would like to be contacted by the service. Ridgeway: There is a separate child visiting room with games and activities appropriate for children of all ages, a TV, seating, a highchair and an outside courtyard. 42

44 D: Workforce Key Findings Number of criteria in Workforce (inclusive of four criteria for services with 19 patients with learning disabilities and two female specific standards): Average percentage of criteria fully met: 91% Range: % Achievements 100% of Learning Disability services incorporate the aims of Valuing People and Valuing People Now and Person-Centred Planning. All Learning Disability services who have staff working with people with learning disabilities are trained to do so. 98% of all services use training which addresses the management of violence and aggression, which also includes de-escalation techniques and the use of control and restraint procedures. Areas for Improvement 36% of services do not provide all staff with supervision on a monthly basis. 28% of services do not have a staffing capacity that is sufficient to deliver the care and treatment model and maintain a safe environment at all times. Only 21% of services provide their staff with a service specific programme of training. Solutions Consider developing a supervision passport for staff to record and manage their own supervision, ensuring at least one hour of supervision is received each month. Ensure all staff undertake supervision on a monthly basis and ensure it is monitored and audited regularly. Consider the need for gender specific training which staff might find useful. Examples of Good Practice Alpha Hospital Bury: Supervision passports are carried by all members of staff and focus groups take place as added support for staff. Maplewood: The service receives monthly visits from Women in Secure Hospitals (WISH) and they deliver training around issues affecting the female patient group. Cygnet Hospital Derby: Staff receive both management and clinical supervision and time is protected for all staff. The Clee Unit: Reflective practice also takes place at the service and staff have engaged in the 'Healing Environment' supervision programme, which is followed by 6 supervision sessions. 44

46 E: Governance Key Findings Number of criteria in Governance: 5 Average percentage of criteria fully met: 81% Range: % Achievements 100% of all services have a structure in place for reporting, managing and investigating Serious and Untoward Incidents (SUIs). 99% of services have mechanisms in place to share learning beyond the immediate service or provider concerning incidents. Areas for Improvement 47% of services do not have contingency plans in place which are tested by a live exercise involving one or other of the emergency services every 24 months. 44% of services do not have contingency plans in place which are annually tested by desktop exercises. 11% of services do not have a contingency plan in place, which has been agreed with the police, regarding the reporting and managing of incidents. Solutions Liaise with the local police emergency planning department to develop an agreed contingency plan to cover all eventualities. Consider looking at the LSU discussion group to gain ideas about how to introduce desktop exercises in order to test contingency plans. Consider designing a service-specific programme of desktop and live exercises that can be carried out to test service contingency plans. Examples of Good Practice All Saints: The service holds meetings with other Trusts who offer specialist deaf services to discuss issues around incidents and lessons learned and sharing of this information. Bracton Centre: A quarterly newsletter highlighting SUI s and lessons learned is produced and disseminated to all ward staff. St Mary s Hospital: The service has employed a dedicated Family and Friends Representative who attends Clinical Governance meetings to help review and develop the service. Tony Hillis Wing: Desktop and live exercises are run regularly including a full scale evacuation of the unit. The fire brigade are involved in the additional emergency planning forums. 46

48 F: Equalities Key Findings Number of criteria in Equalities (inclusive of two criteria for services with 20 patients with learning disabilities, four criteria for services with deaf patients and three female specific standards): Average percentage of criteria fully met: 87% Range: % Achievements 99% of services have access to a range of appropriate advocacy services for their patients to use for support and independent representation. 96% of services take on the views of patients, their carer s and others when discussing the redesigning, planning, delivering and importantly the improvement of health care services. 95% of services include one female member of staff in the pre-assessments of female patients. Areas for Improvement 21% of services do not sufficiently use feedback from patients, friends and family to make improvements to the quality of the units. Only 66% of services are providing patients with satisfactorily balanced and healthy meals, with appropriate portion sizes, catering for dietary requirements. 26% of services did not offer families counselling or support sessions throughout Cycle 3. There may have been variations to the support offered. Solutions Consider ward based you said, we did boards highlighting requests from feedback made and updateable information about actions and timeframes. Review ways in which the service can signpost and help family and friends access psychological support through their own General Practitioner. Continue to promote self-catering opportunities to patients and consider increasing the frequency of this. Examples of Good Practice Hollins Park Hospital: Patients are involved in interviewing new members of staff. Cygnet Hospital Blackheath: Patients are involved in collaborative risk assessment training, service decoration, how wards are run and what groups are made available to them. Morris Ward: The service offers psycho-educational sessions to families and carers of patients. Rathbone Low Secure Unit: Patients are able to communicate with the Chief Executive of the Trust via the Tell Joe process. 48

Draft core care plans are completed prior to admission and revised upon admission dependent upon the presenting risk. All patients will have a designated care coordinator who will maintain contact with the patient throughout their stay. Care coordinators are invited to attend ward rounds and CPA meetings. Dates are flexible and videoconferencing can be used to encourage input from external care teams/link persons. Staff visit patients prior to admission and give them an information booklet as well as an additional booklet when they are admitted. Patients have a buddy system which helps to support new patients with their initial introduction to the service. Care plans are based on Needs Formulations and the overarching model used is My Shared Pathway.

A patient who has been at the service for a while will make a phone call to the new admission and then visit the current hospital they are being transferred from. This ensures patients have a friendly face when they arrive on the ward. All patients have an allocated care coordinator from their locality, in addition to a placements officer/commissioner. All of whom are kept up to date regularly on a patient s progress and are invited to attend CPA meetings and other meetings.

103 APPENDIX D: THE REVIEW PROCESS The overall benefit of being a member of the Quality Network for Forensic Mental Health Services is in taking part in the self and peer-reviews. The purpose of carrying out a selfreview and peer review process is to aim to improve services by applying and measuring services against standards, using the principles of the annual review Cycle, outlined in Figure 18 below. Figure 18: The Annual Review Cycle Agree standards Annual Forum and Report Action Planning ANNUAL REVIEW CYCLE Local Reports Compiled Self Reviews External Peer Review Self-review Each year the Quality Network organises a self-review for each unit. This involves units measuring themselves against standards for low secure care through the completion of a workbook. The Quality Network s Patient Reviewers facilitated telephone conferences supported by a member of the Quality Network s central team, to enable patient input at this stage of the review process. This is also repeated by the Quality Network s pool of Family and Friends Representatives who gain feedback from carers of member services. Peer-review visit The Quality Network organises a peer-review team to visit each low secure unit whose purpose is to validate the self-review scores and comments. The peer-review teams usually consist of four members of staff from two different services, usually including a Consultant Psychiatrist. Visits to other services Throughout the cycle, staff from each low secure unit participate in a peer-review visit to two other services as members of peer-review teams. Overall staff fed back that they find peer-review visits very useful, with some commenting that they are a great opportunity to acknowledge positives and enable staff to come together and share best practice. 103

104 Detailed local report Following the peer-review visit the Quality Network team writes a detailed local report for each member service. This report summarises the findings of the self-and peer-review, providing suggested action points made by the peer-review team for partly met and unmet criteria. The local report also generates and highlights key achievements for the service, as well as areas of improvement. Annual Members Forum Members are invited to an annual conference which provides member services with an overview of the last Cycle s findings, areas of focus and initiatives moving forward. Typically, presentations are given by the Project Team, Patient Reviewers, Family and Friends Representatives, as well as external attendees presenting on relevant topics from the Cycle. For example, at the 2015 LSU Annual Forum, presentations were given by the Scottish Forensic Network and the CQC. The Forum is also a great opportunity to invite member services to explore their experience of the review process, share achievements and discuss solutions for the challenges identified. Quality Network newsletter and discussion group The members newsletter provides policy news, project updates, articles written by members describing good practice initiatives and research taking place, as well as a regular column from the Quality Network s Patient Reviewers and Family and Friends Representative. Each newsletter has a theme to enable focused and relevant dissemination of information to our member services. Equally, the discussion group provides an opportunity to share real time queries and information and to access the experience and knowledge of other members. From Cycle 4 Policies shared on the discussion group are made available in an electronic library on the Quality Network s website 7. Lead reviewer training The Quality Network organises Lead Reviewer Training days which aim to train staff in the required skills for leading peer-review visits. These training days are an opportunity to familiarise members with the purpose of review visits and outline how a visit is structured and what to expect from host services as well as being part of a peer-review team. Similarly to all other events run by the Quality Network, attendees at Lead Reviewer Training events are encouraged to network and take part in exercises to promote sharing and support review environments
