Acorn Health Partnership AGM 16/7/18 Dr Amanda Britton

Five Year Forward View 2014 • Increasingly we need to manage systems – networks of care – not just organisations. • Out-of-hospital care needs to become a much larger part of what the NHS does. • Services need to be integrated around the patient. For example a patient with cancer needs their mental health and social care coordinated around them. Patients with mental illness need their physical health addressed at the same time.

• Prevention • Break down barriers between organisations delivering care • Carers • Voluntary and community involvement • Midwives • Increase GP numbers • Investment in primary care

• ‘General practice, with its registered list and everyone having access to a family doctor, is one of the great strengths of the NHS, but it is under severe strain’

Next Steps on Five Year Forward View 2017 • Focus on A and E admissions and bed days • More young persons mental health in patient beds • Flexible working • More nurses • GP practices to be organized into hubs. of up to 50000

Summer 2017 ? Similar ethos Similar geography and patient demographics Wanted to work together Camrose Gillies Hackwood

Primary Care Homes or ‘Clusters’

Key Characteristics of a Primary Care Home: • provision of care to a defined, registered population of between 30, 000 and 50, 000 • an integrated workforce, with a strong focus on partnerships spanning primary, secondary and social care; • a combined focus on personalisation of care with improvements in population health outcomes; • aligned clinical and financial drivers through a unified, capitated budget with appropriate shared risks and rewards • THIS ALL FITS WITH FIVE YEAR FORWARD PLANS

All but 2 North Hampshire practices are in one of 5 clusters or Primary Care Homes We decided to take the huge step of merging rather than simply working as a group of practices. ACORN is the only cluster that is a single practice with a single patient data base, single management system and all employees working for the same organisation.

Working Together-advantages of merging • Patient base is of a size when we can link more effectively with other providers of health and social care- more streamlined care and opportunities for our patients • Single patient data base • Recruitment and retention of clinical staff enabling specialism to be supported • Single management system • Economies of scale including in back office functions ……. Reduce the risk of closure

July 2018 We are a cluster but even better a single practice…. .

The Future • Deliver Improved Access- entered first wave of pilot by working together • Duty Hub- on the day urgent calls will be dealt with jointly and mainly nurse led to free appointments for long term care issues including doctors appointments • Specialist hubs with links to secondary care • Linked staff working from our group eg mental health worker , link with social services, better HV and community nurse liaison, voluntary sector ………………. .

………. . • Employ pharmacist to work across our site • Enhanced nursing home care to Pemberley • Patient base is of a size when linking with other provider of care becomes viable and enabling us to transform some aspects of delivery and develop others( New Models of Care) • Deliver in house education more effectively • Ability to look at needs of our population and focus on self help and prevention – links with public health

NHCCG Primary Care Strategy 2016 -2020 • Accessible Care Rapid access, continuity of care, online services, out of core hours primary care together with capturing patient need and experience • Co-ordinated Care planning and review, reducing hospital admissions, care coordination, multidisciplinary working, patients supported to manage their own conditions • Transformed Care Enabling practices to lead new ways of working, innovate, be sustainable and deliver high quality out of hospital care • Proactive Care Co-designing services with public health, improving health literacy, targeting the unregistered population and the most needy
