1 NHS Ayrshire & Arran Adverse Event Management: Review of Documentation Supplementary Information Requested by NHS Ayrshire & Arran April 2013

2 Background In February 2012, the Scottish Information Commissioner published a Decision tice (036/2012) that was critical of NHS Ayrshire & Arran s response to a Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act appeal. This decision focused on a request which Mr Wilson, an employee of NHS Ayrshire & Arran, had made for copies of Critical Incident Review Reports and Significant Adverse Event Review Reports completed since January 2005, together with the action plans arising from the reports. Decision tice 036/2012 required NHS Ayrshire & Arran to disclose the Critical Incident Reviews and Significant Adverse Event Reviews and their related action plans to Mr Wilson. Within the Information Commissioner s report from the investigation he describes At the very least, a significant failure of records management. Since the publication of this report allegations have been made of criminal behaviour by NHS Ayrshire and Arran. The allegations suggest that the NHS Board created adverse event documentation in response to the Information Commissioner s investigation and not contemporaneously as part of the local routine adverse review process. The Information Commissioner s report described a significant amount of confusion and poor records management around the creation and storage of adverse event files within the case documentation looked at. The report also highlighted the difficulty in locating files to be able to provide a clear auditable trail. Following the Information Commissioner s report, the then Cabinet Secretary for Health, Wellbeing and Cities Strategy instructed us to carry out a review of the approach taken by NHS Ayrshire & Arran in managing significant adverse events. Our review began in February 2012 and considered the current significant adverse event management system in considerable depth from January 2009 until March This time period covered 57 significant adverse events and differed slightly from the Information Commissioner s cohort of cases. This work resulted in the publication of our report: The Management of Significant Adverse Events in NHS Ayrshire & Arran, in June One aspect of our review methodology was to confirm that the detailed sample of seven cases had action plans that were produced within the same time period as the conclusion of the investigations. Our review team gathered the necessary evidence and confirmed that these action plans were in existence within these times frames. Since the publication of the Information Commissioner s and our report there has been continued attention, from a variety of sources, about the findings of these reports. A particular focus of this attention has been on the existing documentation of the critical incident review and significant adverse event review reports and action plans listed in Appendix 3 of our report. Due to the continued attention to this documentation, the Chief Executive of NHS Ayrshire & Arran asked us to undertake a supplementary review of all documentation (from ) to seek assurance as to the timely creation of the action plans of the 89 cases listed in Appendix 3 of our report. 1

3 Method The primary objective was to confirm that there was an audit trail of the creation and subsequent development of critical incident review and significant adverse event review action plans following the incident occurrence, investigation and report. Healthcare Improvement Scotland was given access at the University Hospital Ayr to the electronic folders of the 89 cases. Additional papers were sent through by to us over the subsequent days including governance papers and additional specific case information. Following a brief demonstration by an NHS Ayrshire & Arran staff member to help with navigating the various folders, we physically opened and reviewed electronic documents, for example, Datix reports, investigation and review reports, correspondence, meeting minutes and papers, to ascertain if there was supporting evidence of the date documents were created, circulated and discussed. The Information Commissioner s and our report noted that there were local issues with document control and storage within the board, particularly with respect to older cases. Therefore, we expected that there would be limitations to the method we adopted and we would encounter gaps in the documentation trail. This is reflected in the findings below. Findings As stated above, we recognised on initiating this documentation review that there would be limitations to our approach, due to the previously noted historical document control issues in NHS Ayrshire & Arran. We have therefore approached the presentation of our findings by categorising the information we saw into four levels of assurance. 1. Adequate information The review of documentation confirms the around the timeframes of the incident. This included 52 cases with reports and action plans presented at governance committees. Thirteen cases were not presented at Committees, but showed documentary evidence of their development through a variety of dated documents, including s and/or meeting minutes. One case is at the draft report stage and evidence confirms discussions taking place on the development of the action plan. 2. Partial information The review of documentation confirms that more than one version of an action plan exists however no version control/dates and no other documentation that would confirm the development around the timeframe of the incident. 3. Insufficient information The review of documentation confirms that an action plan exists however no version control/dates and no other documentation that would confirm the development around the timeframe of the incident. 4. Unable to determine The review of the documentation confirms that no action plan was found or an action plan template was present with recommendations from the report but no associated actions. For one case, no recommendations were made therefore no action plan was developed. 2

4 NB: Whilst there is documentation to support the timely development of the actions, we have made no judgement on their content and no verification on their progression or current position. Table 1 below provides an outline of the high level findings. A detailed list against each case reference is provided in Appendix 1.
