into a list of confusing and incompatible projects that can take the
organisation in the wrong direction or nowhere at all.”

Areas of
Progress
www.cddft.nhs.uk
Areas of Progress
• County Durham and Darlington Foundation Trust acute
baseline assessment
• Multi-disciplinary team development:
• Acute based
• Community based
• Analysis of key barriers to change
• Integrated planning documentation including vision,
principles and service blueprints
• Information sharing Agreements (ISA)
• Template and populated ISAs
• Case study on information sharing
www.cddft.nhs.uk
Standard 3 - Multi-disciplinary Team (MDT)
review
“All emergency inpatients must be assessed for complex or on-going needs
within 14 hours by a multi-professional team, overseen by a competent
decision-maker, unless deemed unnecessary by the responsible consultant. An
integrated management plan with estimated discharge date and physiological
and functional criteria for discharge must be in place along with completed
medicines reconciliation within 24 hours.”
Supporting information:
• The MDT will vary by specialty but as a minimum will include
Nursing, Medicine, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy and for medical patients,
Occupational Therapy.
• Other professionals that may be required include but are not limited
to: dieticians, podiatrists, speech and language therapy and
psychologists and consultants in other specialist areas such as
geriatrics.
• Reviews should be informed by patients existing primary and
community
• Appropriate staff must be available for the treatment/management
plan to be carried out
www.cddft.nhs.uk

Further 7 day Projects Which Have Stemmed
From The Implementation Of Standard 3…
There are 4 key issues which are blocking medically fit patients from leaving the ward…
On average the information centres across the six wards are typically seeing 30 patients
per week who are now medically fit for discharge but are “blocked” in the system due to
problems which are being addressed.
Just over one
third of the
patients ready to
move on are
under the Trust’s
control
By making problems visible on information centres, the teams have highlighted 4 key areas
of focus: CHC assessments, Nursing Home discharges, Diagnostics and community
hospitals.

What We Are Trying To Achieve
• Improve patient experience
• More effective care planning and packages centred on
individual needs
• Care in the community or at home where preferred option
• Increase in self-management
• Increased involvement of Voluntary Care sector
• Prevent unnecessary acute admission/re-admission
• Reduce length of stay (e.g. through ‘in-reach’)
• Reduce number of patients transferred to long term care
www.cddft.nhs.uk
Stakeholders Involved
• Darlington CCG & Associated Practices
• County Durham and Darlington FT
• Darlington Borough Council
• Tees, Esk and Wear Valley FT
• Voluntary Sector
• Care Home Sector

Progress since March 2014 –
Primary Care
• Practice MDT’s take place monthly in place with attendance from
Social Workers, Community matrons and Voluntary Sector brokers
• Advanced care plans being developed for 2% of population at
highest risk of emergency admission
• Monthly meetings to discuss those who have had emergency
admission in previous month & agree how care plan/support
package needs to be amended to prevent re-occurrence
• Voluntary sector broker liaises with other VS organisations as
appropriate
• Referrals made to other teams as appropriate e.g. mental health
• Evolutionary development
www.cddft.nhs.uk
Progress since March 2014 – Care Homes and initial
feedback
• Community Matrons now working 9am – 5pm; 7 days a week
– linked to Top 10 Care Homes
• District Nurses pick up any referrals overnight
• Community Matrons attending all GP practices monthly MDT’s
• EHCP/Advanced Care Plans starting to be put in place for all
patients in care homes.

Issues – Or Challenges
And Opportunities
• Multi organisation working
• Aligning national strategies against challenging timelines
• Information sharing
• IM & T
• Communication
www.cddft.nhs.uk
Future direction and next
steps
• Community Rapid Assessment Service - Front of House
• Geriatrician telephone advice line 12:00 – 14:00 Monday to
Friday
• Hospital to Home
• Additional matrons/assistant practitioners to support
remaining care homes
• Identification of areas for future development/investment
www.cddft.nhs.uk
Overcoming the IG ‘Barriers’
• It’s not ‘we can’t share’ – its ‘how can we share’
• An Information Sharing Agreement (ISA) is a document
for all parties to agree :
• Assist compliance with information rights law and
practice.
• Set’s out standards and consistency that have to be met
by all signatories.
• Ensure patient consent is achieved in process
www.cddft.nhs.uk
How will we know where we
are going?
shared vision – shared understanding - shared outcomes
www.cddft.nhs.uk
Arriving at a GP practice at 2pm on a Saturday, we note that
• The practice is open and offering both emergency appointments and clinical sessions to patients who have booked there appointment through the multi-agency SPA.
• A mixture of local point of testing, locality based x ray and digital health care systems providing a local integrated diagnostic support system.
• We note the GPs working on the Saturday sessions are from a range of local practices, the local GP federation providing a locality based approach to 7 day working and medical cover.
• A frail elderly MDT meeting is in progress with a local specialist GPwSI, Social worker, a NA&S collaborative nurse , a community diabetic specialist nurse and CPN are holding a video conference with a community geriatrician who is linked in from the local community hospital where she is helping on assessments of patients to move back to home based settings.
• The MDT are all using TPP Systmone as the core single record and basis of the case mgt of both high risk patients and those who are being discharged from hospital. The social and community staff linking in through their mobile working laptop system, all patients on the MDT system having agreed to share their information
• Leaving the practice we note that a program of LTC support sessions are planned for Monday, at these sessions consultants and specialist nurses are booked to provide integrated support sessions to frail elderly patients with multiple conditions - diabetes, vascular and supporting podiatry and retinal screening sessions being carefully planned to allow access to clients until 7pm
www.cddft.nhs.uk
Travelling to a local care home on Sunday we note
• A NA&S collaborative nurse is undertaking a review of 6 patients, 3 identified
in a local MDT meeting from risk stratification process as having a risk of
escalation and 3 recent arrivals from a planned discharge process 2 from a
community hospital and one from a DGH.
• The patient discharged from hospital, arrived an hour ago, the community led
integrated intermediate care / discharge team planned the discharge from the
hospital with essential medication being provided from the new 7 day pharmacy
service. The script being sent electronically from the hospital
• The patients hospital discharge information pack, included a web generated
nutrition plan, and a digital health monitoring pack. This cheap and flexible
digital health pack, brought by the ISIS HCA in the boot of his car, was
connected and put on line and started taking readings within 10 mins. The
information being cloud based, allows decisions around additional care to be
made by local GPs accessing clinical information. This INR dependant patient
is also utilising the digital monitoring system to dose check as required.
• The care home staff are preparing for a visit from a local care home support
team of GP, a NA&S collaborative nurse and pharmacist who provide focussed
support to help avoid hospital admissions
www.cddft.nhs.uk
In a local elderly persons home
• An NA&S nurse practitioner is visiting to check out a person on the local risk of admission register, the persons carer has called for help from the SPA as they were concerned.
• The nurse is using a digital stethoscope to listen and transmit in real time the heart and lung function to a COPD consultant operating in ‘the front of house’ team of the local A&E unit. The conclusion is that a course of IV antibiotics supported by the local nursing team in the persons home and an enhanced support package , which includes a 3rd sector sitting service, organised by the social worker through the SPA will prevent risk of admission.
• The carer has on their carer patient portal a contact name and support person named to discuss their concerns if required.
• Falls tracker call has been taken by the patient and carer –this asks simple questions to help triage whether after a recent fall the falls team need to come out
