2 Highlights of 2008/09 We achieve... 2008/09 was another great year at Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust, as shown by the progress we made in implementing our Annual Plan and our success in the national performance ratings. This reflects the hard work and commitment of our staff, the contribution that our members and governors make and the positive relationship we have with partner organisations. An excellent Trust We are delighted to have, again, achieved all national and local quality, performance and financial targets. We have also been awarded two Excellent ratings for our use of resources and quality of by the NHS regulator, the Healthcare Commission. This performance reflects significant progress made during the previous year in areas such as patient safety, cleanliness and reducing waiting times. EXCELLENT HSMR Leading quality improvement and patient safety We launched an ambitious Quality Improvement Strategy in April 2008 which pledged to save 1000 lives in the next three years as well as reducing harmful incidents by 50%. Since April 2008, we have made significant progress and are making a positive impact on the care provided to patients at Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust. Key achievements from year one include: l 293 more lives saved than expected as the hospital standardised mortality rate (HSMR) is reduced from 84.5 to 79.6 l 68% reduction in hospital acquired Clostridium difficile infection l Significant reduction of number of patients acquiring MRSA infection 29 cases in 2007/08 reduced to 16 in 2008/09 l The number of cardiac arrest calls has been reduced by 32% equating to 67 fewer cardiac arrests l Stroke care best practice measure improved from 81% to 91% l The Matron team has increased from 14 to 21 providing senior clinical support on-site 24/7 l 98% of patients would recommend Salford Royal to family and friends (highest score in the NHS) l Executive Safety WalkRounds on all wards and departments opening a dialogue about a safe environment for our patients and staff. Explained: HSMR is a measurement system which compares a hospital s actual number of deaths with their predicted number of deaths. The prediction calculation takes account of factors such as the age and sex of patients, their diagnosis, whether the admission was planned or an emergency. If the Trust has an HSMR of 100, this means that the number of patients who die is exactly as predicted. For Salford Royal, every one point below 100 we achieve, equates to 14 lives saved. National recognition l We were rated within the top 20% of Trusts in the Healthcare Commission patient survey l We are one of just a handful of NHS organisations to receive the highest patient safety accreditation rating from the NHS Litigation Authority l We won the Patient Safety category at the annual Health Services Journal awards for our leading initiative to ensure all suspicions of cancer identified via investigation are acted upon at the earliest opportunity.
3 Excellent feedback from our patients 98% of our patients would recommend Salford Royal to family and friends. We were rated in the top 20% of Trusts in the Healthcare Commission patient survey. Our new Patient Experience Tracker, an electronic device to capture real time patient feedback, has been implemented in wards and departments throughout the hospital. This allows patients to rate their satisfaction with areas such as cleanliness, privacy and dignity. Positive changes and improvements to There has been a continued increase in the number of patients treated and we have met the 18 week target from GP referral to the start of treatment. We introduced the Salford Weight Management Service, providing bariatric surgical procedures (such as Gastric Bypass) to aid weight reduction in those adults diagnosed as severely obese. This service is complemented by a multidisciplinary weight management team. Outpatient are now providing patients with quicker access to advice, tests, and treatments. We have introduced a number of one-stop and aim to reduce, where possible, the number of separate appointments required. Primary care based Dermatology Services agreed for Bury and Manchester, to provide quick access to advice, treatment and care closer to home. Maternity Services at the hospital is one of only three units in the North West to be awarded the UNICEF Baby Friendly Initiative Award. We have been selected as the site for a new Comprehensive Stroke Centre for patients across Greater Manchester. Investing in a new hospital Building work commenced on the 200 million, state-of-the-art new hospital development with phase one now complete. In November the Trust opened the new Multi-storey car park for staff and the new Mayo Building. The Mayo Building provides state-of-the-art education facilities for health professionals, where staff receive basic education, postgraduate education and continuing professional development. The building provides a full range of simulators that help both staff and students develop clinical skills. Construction work also commenced on the new Hope Building which will re-provide accommodation for a range of clinical by the end of 2011.
4 Highlights of 2008/09 We achieve... Being productive and using public money wisely For the second year in succession, the Trust was rated excellent by the Healthcare Commission for the use of resources, which reflects how well the Trust manages its finances. The Trust has a Finance risk rating of 4 and a Governance risk rating of green from Monitor. Both are extremely good ratings, indicating low levels of risk. Engaging with our Foundation Trust members In Autumn 2008, we surveyed over 4000 Foundation Trust public members to ensure their views directly informed our plans for the future. The Council of Governors led on membership engagement and helped identify key areas of improvement that the Trust will be taking forward over the next five years.
5 An excellent working environment We have been rated as one of the top NHS employers in two national surveys: l Best 20% of Acute Trusts or above average in 30 out of the 36 key findings in the Healthcare Commission s National NHS Staff Survey l One of the Top 20 Healthcare organisations to work for in the country, in a list compiled by Ipsos MORI on behalf of the Health Services Journal and Nursing Times. We have reduced our carbon footprint by 16% (or 863 tonnes) over four years and we will continue to develop new saving schemes. We are one of only a few Trusts in the country to have implemented electronic prescribing and medicine administration recording (EPMAR).
