Organisation FOI50520 - Better Care Fund Date received: 18/01/2016 Under the 2015-16 Better Care Fund policy framework, local areas were asked to set targets against five key metrics and I would like to request the following information: 1. The CCG's locally-proposed metric 2. The targets set by the CCG (or HWB in which the CCG participates) for each metric - please state precise statistical targets where applicable 3. Please state the "starting position" for each metric - i.e. please give statistics on how that metric was performing at the start of the measuring period (e.g. if the Delayed Transfers of Care target is to reduce DTOCs from their 2014/15 level, please state the DTOCs figure for 2014/15) 4. Please state whether the CCG or the local authority (please state which) is responsible for measuring progress for each target 5. Please state what statistical progress to date has been made towards each target, and whether each target is currently forecast to be achieved by the end of 2015/16 A. Listed below are the five national metrics for the financial year 2015/16. The performance is set against the data from the previous financial year 2014/15. Actual data is available between four to five weeks after the end of the quarter, therefore data is unavailable for some of the metrics at this time. 1. Non elective admissions into hospital (all ages) for the Cornish resident population This is the total non-elective (emergency) admissions in to hospital (general & acute), all-age, per 100,000 population. A national target of a 3.5 per cent reduction against the 2014/15 baseline was set. The CCG measures and monitors progress and the forecast is the target will not be met. Q1 Apr - Jun Q2 Jul - Sep Q3 Oct - Dec Q4 Jan - Mar Baseline 2,397 2,289 2,520 2,346 Target 2,295 2,190 2,412 2,448 Actual 2,364 2,386 2,501 Data unavailable Variance +69 +196 +89 15
2. Admissions to residential and care homes This is the annual rate of council supported permanent admissions of older people (aged 65 and over) to residential and nursing care. An admission is a new admission, so does not include people transferring from one home to another or from residential to nursing. It does include people moving from temporary to permanent care. A target of a reduction of 12 places against the 2014/15 baseline was set. The council measures and monitors progress and the forecast is the target will be met. However, the results for Q3 actual figures are provisional and are likely to change (increase) as data filters through from Care Homes. Q1 Apr - Jun Q2 Jul - Sep Q3 Oct - Dec Q4 Jan - Mar Baseline 150 131 148 134 Target 144 126 143 129 Actual 140 133 80 Data unavailable Variance -4 +7-63 3. Effectiveness of reablement Increased productivity of the team achieving an additional 700 people receiving services resulting in 60 per cent of them realising a 10 per cent reduction in package. The council measures and monitors progress and the forecast is that the target will not be met and is measured over a number of elements to arrive at an estimate of what capacity has been generated to deal with additional packages of care based on average package costs. a) Reduce the number of care packages held over 6 weeks by the Short Term Enablement Planning Service (STEPS) team Assumption that there is an average saving per package of 840 Q1 Apr - Jun Q2 Jul - Sep Q3 Oct - Dec Q4 Jan - Mar Baseline 82 102 75 125 Target 30 30 30 30 Actual 104 90 83 Data unavailable Variance +74 +60 +53 The ability of the STEPS team to release care packages is impacted by the pressures in the system and the capacity of providers to pick up care packages. Consequently, no cost saving has been generated that could be used to enable additional packages of care to be delivered. There has been an increase in packages held over 6 weeks rather than a decrease. 16
b) Increase the number of contact hours spent by STEPS team workers with clients Assumption that there is an average saving per package of 420 Q1 Apr - Jun Q2 Jul - Sep Q3 Oct - Dec Q4 Jan - Mar Baseline 19,804 18,647 21,423 20,940 Target 21,209 19,737 22,599 22,083 Actual 21,209 17,686 17,450 Data unavailable Variance 0-2,051-5,149 The STEPS team holding packages of care past six weeks has a direct impact on contact hours available to new clients. Consequently, no cost saving has been generated that could be used to enable additional packages of care to be delivered. There has been a reduction in contact hours rather than an increase. 4. Delayed transfers of care Delayed days per 100,000 population (aged 18+ and attributable to social care) per month. A delayed transfer of care occurs when a patient is ready for transfer from a hospital bed, but is still occupying such a bed. A patient is ready for transfer when (a) a clinical decision has been made that the patient is ready for transfer; (b) a multi-disciplinary team decision has been made that the patient is ready for transfer; and (c) the patient is safe to discharge/transfer. A target of a 25 per cent reduction against the 2014/15 baseline was set. The CCG measures and monitors progress and the forecast is that the target will not be met. Q1 Apr - Jun Q2 Jul - Sep Q3 Oct - Dec Q4 Jan - Mar Baseline 593 534 505 505 Target 422 380 359 359 Actual 636 979 data unavailable data unavailable Variance +215 +599 5. ASCOF Measure 1A Social Care related Quality of Life (Patient / service user experience) Data is reported annually so the 2015/16 actual figures will be reported in April 2016 following receipt of questionnaires. We therefore exempt the release under Section 22 of the Freedom of Information Act, information intended for future publication. 17
A target of 0.9 per cent improvement in 2015/16 against the 2014/15 baseline figure of 20 per cent was set. The council measures and monitors progress and the forecast is that the target will be met. 6. Penwith pilot mental health wellbeing patient score compared to the general population - locally proposed metric The Short Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale (SWEMWBS) is a seven item scale of mental well-being covering subjective well-being and psychological functioning, in which all items are worded positively and address aspects of positive mental health. It is being used to measure the wellbeing of a group of people within Penwith, Cornwall and the figure compared to the general population. A target of 20 per cent compared to a general population of 8 per cent was set. The CCG measures and monitors progress and the forecast is that the target will not be met.

Please tell us in no more than 300 words The overarching vision set by children and young people is that The emotional wellbeing and mental health of all children and young people is improved because they can easily access the right support when they need it. This will ultimately mean that whole communities understand and are skilled in nhs kernow annex 1 16 10 2015
dealing with mental health issues so that they can help prevent, identify early and help when needed. The main objectives are to: Build on some excellent work already in place Offer extensive training and skills development across a range of professionals and others Ensure the voice of children and young people and their families and carers are heard and acted upon Have excellent and easy accessible information sources; Build on an integrated early help for mental health model (Bloom) involving schools; independent sector providers; public sector providers; GPs to ensure services are tailored to meet local need. Provide services in a way that meet the needs of children and young people and their families/carers Have a strong prevention element around peri natal and infant mental health so that attachment issues are identified earlier Offer parents support on a consistent basis through delivering evidenced based parenting programmes Have services that target the more vulnerable and hardly reached groups Have a crisis service in place with robust pathways that prevent the need for in-patient care Have a seamless offer across agencies and sectors; including into adult hood and that data sharing is enabled Ensure all providers and commissioners work together to be able to measure the impact of services and progress; use this to plan and agree how resources will be best used to meet unmet need Q3. Where have you got to? (Please summarise the main concrete steps or achievements you have already made towards developing your local offer in line with the national ambition set out in Future in Mind e.g. progress made since publication in March 2015.) Please tell us in no more than 300 words The Draft CAMHs Strategy has been updated to reflect FiM; priorities have been signed off by the Children s Trust Board and Transformation Plan has been developed that is also the implementation plan for the Strategy. Wide stakeholder engagement has been undertaken with more planned [Appendix One] and this engagement has been used to consult on & refine the emerging outcomes & key deliverables; and the prioritisation. Self harm guidance for school has been developed which is being rolled-out, training is in development. A PHSE audit has been undertaken with a mapping of existing training provision. The integrated working early help model for mental health is being piloted in the Penwith area and plans are being developed to use this as a model to roll out to nhs kernow annex 1 16 10 2015
other areas. Early Help Hub has been launched which is a single referral point for CAMHs. Work on co-producing the single point of access with young people is taking place. Infant mental health pathway has been developed including video interactive guidance. Headstart Kernow has been aligned with FiM and is part of the transformation. The digital offer is being developed alongside Headstart to ensure linkages with the young person developed website (Mind our Way) and SAVV (health schools website). Additional capacity management and clinical resources are being secured to implement and manage the transformation programme. The review of the Eating Disorder pathway is underway, led by a GP with the CAMHs provider and acute paediatricians. A DES is being explored and there is shared learning from the Exeter team. The psychiatric liaison in RCHT has been analysed and a business cases developed. Q4. Where do you think you could get to by April 2016? (Please describe the changes, realistically, that could be achieved by then.) Please tell us in no more than 300 words A training needs assessment will be completed by schools and a service specification produced to secure a service to deliver training to improve skills and knowledge to schools in the first instance then rolled out to GPs and wider community. A procurement will begin before April 2016. Self harm training to schools will be in place; GP training will be in place ( linked to this will be the offer to fund non recurrently back fill). There will be worked up business cases for a crisis service and additional staffing in place. There will be directed enhanced service in place for GPs to support the Eating disorder pathway. The new model of ED will be agreed and additional staff will be appointed to deliver this. There will be a business case in place to deliver the whole pathway for infant mental health. There will be a waiting list initiative to get to a level playing field. Work will start on developing a common data set will be established across commissioners train with solutions around data sharing being prioritised and be part of the wider interoperability framework. There will be an assessment of the peri natal mental health pathway and a plan in place to ensure this meets FiM as well as NICE guidance.
