Update on Kingston CCG Dr Naz Jivani, Chair

Changes to the NHS • GPs taking over commissioning of hospital, community and mental health services from PCTs • National Commissioning Board to commission doctors, dentists, pharmacists and opticians • Health and Wellbeing boards established in each borough • Increased role for Healthwatch in engaging patients • Public health services transferred to councils and Public Health England

How things are now

How they will be after April 2013

Developments in Kingston • Kingston CCG was given delegated responsibility for hospital, mental health and community services • One of three in London and 35 nationally to apply for ‘first wave’ authorisation • We now have an elected governing body and a unique Council of Members, representing all GPs • We also have a constitution and robust governance arrangements • Once approved the CCG will take over full responsibility from April 2013

What we have been doing • Kingston at Home was launched - a joint health and social care programme to support people to stay living in their own homes • Medicines management – working with GP practices to ensure patients get the right medicines for their condition • Urgent care – increasing options so patients can avoid a long wait in A&E

Other CCG priorities • Helping patients look after themselves - e. g. Kingston exercise programmes have decreased hypertension levels • Outpatients – ensuring patients are referred to the right place for the treatment they need • Contributing to the Better Services Better Value review. Public consultation begins soon.

Mental health improvements SW London engagement events were held to capture views Initial findings: • Agreement that changes are needed • Greater need for joint working between organisations • Proactive involvement of a wide range of voices • Clearer communications • More consistency of care • Quicker access/referral times What we’re already doing: • Tendering for new substance misuse and psychological therapies services • Working across SW London to act on patient feedback

Involving patients • We’re talking to patient reference groups, voluntary organisations and other stakeholders to make sure people can influence decision making ‘upstream’ • Engagement to be carried out before relevant board reports are submitted • This will involve proactive engagement using a range of routes • We’re proposing a regular patient forum and email network • Views reported to Integrated Committee Governance

Health and Wellbeing Strategy Dr Jonathan Hildebrand, Joint Director of Public Health

Why have a health and wellbeing strategy? • As part of changes to the NHS, Health and Wellbeing Boards are being set up • Kingston’s H&WBB has been meeting for two years • Members include representatives of the voluntary sector, Healthwatch, the CCG, councillors and officers • Chaired by the Leader of the Council • The H&WBB has a responsibility to produce a Health and Wellbeing Strategy

Why have a health and wellbeing strategy? • Strategy is based on the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment of the assets and needs of local people • Focuses on a small number of key areas where partnership working could make a major difference • Lays outcomes for agencies to work to achieve • Does not replace other agreed strategies • Once agreed, progress will be by the Board reviewed regularly

What’s in the strategy • Initial thinking from a board seminar • Draft discussed at H&WBB, Kingston CCG, now on CCG and council websites • Overview of Kingston and overall principles • Four main themes: 1. 2. 3. 4. Mental health Older people/long term conditions Socially excluded disadvantaged groups Children and young people

Mental health • High spend but outcomes do not reflect this Desired outcomes include: - Improved physical and mental health for people with MH problems - Co-ordination and support for people with MH problems in the community - Integration between specialist/primary care - Simple referral and care pathways for alcohol/drugs - Modernised care for older people

Older people and people with long-term conditions • Older people and people with long-term conditions are major users of services Desired outcomes include: - Improved information and advice - Empowerment of people with long term conditions - Addressing risk factors for long-term conditions - Improved local activities/support - Greater availability of rehabilitation

Addressing the needs of socially excluded and disadvantaged groups • There are wide variations in health within Kingston Desired outcomes include: - Reduce the gap in life expectancy for disadvantaged communities whilst improving outcomes for all - Engage and empower disadvantaged communities so that their lifestyle becomes more focused on health - Strengthen the involvement of disadvantaged groups in service redesign to avoid exclusion

Children and young people • Child health influences health in adulthood so action has long term benefits Desired outcomes include: - Good quality antenatal care/ screening - Achieve immunisation targets - Reduce childhood obesity - Increased provision for children with complex needs - Early identification and intervention behaviours with high risk

For discussion • Are there any key priorities for joint action that we have missed? • Of the four priorities identified, is there an order of importance? • Within the priorities are there outcomes we need to add? • Do you have any other comments about the strategy? • How can we maintain your involvement in the strategy in the future?

Kingston at Home Julia Gosden, Project Lead Pre-proposal ideas testing

How we currently work Planning & buying Planning & healthcare delivering social care Delivering services

Kingston at Home – future Planning & buying health & social care Delivering services

Today’s focus Home & community care improvements - discuss ideas, so we can include your views as we develop proposals. Emphasis on increasing the amount of treatment, care & support that is provided at home.

Why we need to change People live longer (Kingston over 65 s – top 25% in England; 14% increase 2009 -18) 54% of spend on older people = residential care (Kingston - high referrals) Over 75 s form 34% of emergency admissions but their stay is longer - 56% of bed days Financial challenges - no change not an option

Evidence • We know people want more coordinated care that gives them control over their own health and helps them to live independently • Evidence from other areas demonstrates that this approach works – is better for patients and more cost effective

Kingston at Home – What? • More treatment at home • More community support & activities • Especially after an illness, accident or other incident to help people: ü Get better ü Stay well ü Remain independent

Kingston at Home – How? • Focus on rehabilitation & reablement = better value & better for patients • Transfer funding & resources • Join-up health, social & voluntary care services • Prevention of high-dependency

What this really means INCREASED INDEPENDENCE via more home & community-based services & support DECREASED RESIDENTIAL placements & unnecessary hospital admission

Some examples • Single point of access with quick referral response • Teams that are integrated across council and NHS • Multidisciplinary assessment/case management • Greater use of technology e. g. sensors and alarms

Some examples (continued) • Reduced discharge from hospital to residential care • Increased home based rehabilitation • Community beds for short term support • Social care personal budgets for service users

Kingston at Home – Future • More people-focused – asking, listening, informing others • Whole-person approach – all health, physical fitness, safety, emotional wellbeing & daily needs • Reduce hospital visits, length of stay, readmissions & referrals into long-term care

How can we best support people to stay living at home?

Questions • What do you think of our ‘joined-up’ vision to help support people at home rather than residential care or hospital? • What are the positives/negatives? • What types of care and support would your ideal home service include? • What factors should we bear in developing proposals? mind when
