TB184/19 Patient and Engagement Issues including:

• NEDs & Executive Visits/Walkabouts

• Patient/Staff Story: Surgical Assessment Unit – How they improved the patient journey

NEDs & Executive Visits/Walkabouts Mrs Gorry & The Director of Finance had visited Spinal Injuries Unit (SIU)on 23 October. The SIU had recently been refurbished following the Klebsiella outbreak. The visit went well with engaging feedback from the staff, who were proud of the patient centred team, the standard of work and care and the comprehensive induction programme in place. It was noted however the staff on SIU felt frustrated with overall communications which came from the management team of the hospital and were unsure how they fitted into the strategic plans for the future. There are elements of the IT systems which do not align. Some of the staff felt the profile of SIU should be raised and run as a separate Clinical Business Unit (CBU). There was a suggestion to link the NEDs with designated wards. The Acting Chief Executive & Director of Strategy will provide a summary of actions from the NED and Executive visits which would provide valuable feedback and ensure the visits are viewed as a meaningful exercise. It was noted that both the Chief Operating Officer and the Director of

Nursing, Midwifery & Therapies were providing support and visibility around the wards during this period of overwhelming demand. The Director of Human Resources & Operational Development confirmed there were dates in the diary for her and Gurpreet Singh to arrange ward visits during the next couple of months. Back to the floor visits for all of the Executive Team were also being arranged. Patient/Staff Story: Surgical Assessment Unit – How they improved the patient journey The Board were apprised of the background of the opening of the

Surgical Assessment Unit (SAU). The SAU was 18 months in the planning and opened in October 2018. It is a purpose built area for ambulatory patients who require surgical review. The process of embedding the new service into practice has taken 12 months. There were some initial teething issues but these have now been resolved. The aim of the unit is to reduce avoidable admissions. Some of the achievements to date include: ➢ March 2019 - Cohort 4 NHS Elect Programme: Trust

commitment to best practice and developing ambulatory models of care. The team have been asked to coach Cohort 5 and asked to share their data template

➢ May - Acute Abdomen Pathway formalised

➢ June - Pilot of Hot clinic

➢ July - Formalisation of Standard Operating Policy for Hot Clinic and Ward Attender Referral Process

The work continues to provide excellent safe and appropriate care. Improvements to service provision adapt in relation to feedback received. There is further work underway with NHS Elect to ringfence the unit and increase revenue from Best Practice Tariff. There had been some HRG coding issues which had indicated under-costing however this issue has been resolved and should be reflected in the August data. The staff on SAU are very proud of this service and are looking forward to the future development of the unit. The next 12 months will be looking at developing a 7 day service.

Patient Story – Sally’s Story

The outcome from Sally’s story was very positive. Sally had given

permission to use both her story and her name. Following a 3 year

history of a cyst to her back Sally’s GP referred her to SAU for

assessment. As a result of the review Sally was listed by the

Surgeon for same day ‘see and treat’. This process allowed Sally to

attend the hospital on the morning of her procedure. Her husband

who required a carer was able to attend with her and was looked

after by the staff on duty. The procedure was completed and Sally

was discharged home. There was no capacity within the

Community to provide a wound check the following day so Sally

returned to the unit for wound care and no follow up appointment

was required.

Mr Birrell thanked Gemma for attending the meeting offered his praise for the development of the service and encouraged Board members to visit the area. The Chief Operating Officer praised Gemma and her team for their hard work and dedication noting that Gemma was an exemplar colleague.

RESOLVED: The Board received the presentation and noted the excellent progress being made

➢ Bed reopening in Spinal Injuries Centre North West Regional Spinal Injuries Centre at Southport hospital has begun to reopen after closing to admissions in the summer following an increase in the incidence of patients colonised with the Klebsiella bacteria.

➢ Flu Campaign at week 5 – 73% ➢ Winter Plan approved at Private Board subject to a

clinical conversation. ➢ Electronic Medical Prescribing.

£700k funding approved to support implementation of Electronic Medical Prescribing, this is a major investment into IT systems it is hoped this will be mobilised by the beginning of January 2020.

RESOLVED: The Board noted the report.

QUALITY & SAFETY

TB186/19 QUALITY & SAFETY REPORTS

The key issues from the 5 comprehensive reports provided in relation to this agenda item (Summary of Complaints & Compliments, Learning from Deaths Report (formerly Monthly Mortality Report), Quality Improvement Plan, Safe Staffing, CQC update, and Freedom to Speak Up Quarterly Update and Relaunch of Strategy) were highlighted in a presentation to the Board, as follows: Quality Improvement Priorities Complaints & Compliments This month’s report shows a breakdown of the number of compliments, complaints and concerns received for the month of September and the improvements now in place following the closure of complaints in August. It was noted the number of complaints and concerns had appeared to stabilise, however plans to address the backlogs will be managed by the newly appointed Deputy Directors of Nursing.

Action: Director of Nursing, Midwifery & Therapies By: January Board

Learning from Deaths Report (formerly Monthly Mortality

Page 11 of 210

Report) It was noted the Monthly Mortality Report to the Board is now a

Learning from Deaths Report. In April the HSMR increased to 118

from 82.8 the previous month. There had been no significant spikes

in any disease specific areas and the main primary diagnoses of

these patients were similar to previous months. Fortnightly Mortality

Meetings are now in place to support the delivery of a responsive

and learning approach to the screening of deaths.

Mortality Screening Following a review of the process the screening rate has shown an

improvement. Structured Judgement Reviews and potential

avoidance of death reviews are in place. There are still a

percentage of patients receiving poor care. Director of Nursing,

Midwifery & Therapies noted these cases would be managed

through the Mortality Operational Group and the themes would be

consolidated.

Quality Improvement Plan Training is being delivered on the Older Peoples Care Training

Programme to include Nutrition, Hydration & Mouth Care, Dementia

& Delirium, Continence, End of Life Care, Falls, Care of the

Deteriorating Patient, Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) and

Medicines Management. There are some issues around nutrition

due to the lack of ability to release Dietitians from clinical duties in

the absence of a Dietetic lead. The Falls Strategy is being

developed with a view to launch in November. A new Neck of

Femur (NOF) Pathway has been approved and will be reviewed and

audited.

IPC Update

The Team is working across the Community in conjunction with

AQUA. There is a focus on reducing antimicrobial use. The C.Diff

target is more challenging this year due to a change in how cases

are attributed to the Trust. There had been an MRSA bacteraemia

in August which was the first one in almost 2 years and was a result

of cannulation, relevant learning identified. To date there have been

3 cases of flu but no transmission noted and a table top exercise

has been completed. Klebsiella outbreak on Spinal Injuries Unit had

been handled effectively.

Medicines Management

Following the issues raised by the CQC and the information

provided by the Model Hospital Team which identified the

department was under resourced a Business Case for additional

staffing had been completed and was approved at Private Board on

6 November 2019.

Safe Staffing There has been an overall improvement to the fill rate which is as a result of an increase in the number of allocate on arrival shifts which attract an enhanced rate. There have been a number of recruitment events but the Trust is only just managing to maintain

safe staffing levels. The Trust has one of the highest vacancy rates across Cheshire & Merseyside. International recruitment is a consideration. There is no central point for the management of medical vacancies and these are managed within the individual CBUs. The Executive Medical Director will be asked to provide a paper update to the Board which will provide details of the medical vacancy rate across the Trust, it was noted this would be a complex piece of work and would require discussion at Workforce Committee.

Action: Executive Medical Director By: December Board

Improving Criteria Led Discharge Important for the Trust to ensure there are nurses available to support Criteria Led Discharge, work is progressing in this area but not something that will be fully established this year. The Red to Green multi-disciplinary approach will also support patient flow. CQC Update The Trust received the draft report for factual accuracy checking on 8 October 2019 the Quality Team worked with the Core Service leads to identify any inaccuracies and the report was returned by the deadline 29 October 2019. The CQC have been asked to consider amendment to some key ratings. The date for official publication of the report is yet unclear due to the process of Purdah. Freedom to Speak Up Quarterly Update During October the Freedom To Speak Up Champions engaged in different activities, plans for November include drop-in sessions to recruit more Champions. It had been noted within the Freedom To Speak Up Index Report that the Trust had been listed in the bottom 10 but there was no indication as to why this is the case. Martin Abrams is meeting with the Regional Liaison Lead for the North West to discuss the potential to ‘buddy up’ with an organisation which has shown improvement. RESOLVED: The Board received the Complaints & Compliments Report, the Learning from Deaths Report (formerly Monthly Mortality Report) and the Monthly Safe Staffing Report and was assured by the Quality Improvement Report and the CQC Preparation Update

PERFORMANCE & GOVERNANCE

TB187/19 Assurance & Performance

INTEGRATED PERFORMANCE REPORT The Chief Operating Officer provided an overview of this report which identified an improvement of 31 indicators and a deterioration of 24. Key areas: 12 hour DTA breaches 5 declared for the month of September 4 of which were attributed to patient flow and 1 a delay in securing a mental health bed. Assurance given that all patients did receive senior review during this time. Currently showing as an outlier for the region which is also bringing scrutiny from the Regulators.

RTT Remains above the 92% target however performance is currently being impacted by anaesthetics and various workforce issues. C.Diff Mr Birrell asked for clarification of the Trust target as there appeared to be conflicting information within the description and narrative columns.

Action: Executive Medical Director By: December Board

Friends & Family Test Performance has shown a significant deterioration in comparison to the previous month. LOS Interventions in place are showing an improvement, with continued work around embedding the Home First solution.

Theatre Productivity July – September 2019 showed an improvement of 5%

Agency Staff Costs continue to remain high due to the reliance on agency staff to provide safe patient care in both medical and nursing areas. The Director of Human Resources & Organisational Development noted there are 4 consultant panel interviews taking place over the next 3 weeks and there have recently been 3 appointments within the Anaesthetics Department which is a positive step.

Diagnostic Waits There was a demonstrable improvement for the third month in a row however Radiology and Endoscopy are key services which are impacting on performance. The Trust has improvement plans in place to address the issues. Mr Birrell noted that the sickness rate was currently at the lowest level for some time however the staff turnover rate was the highest. The Director of Human Resources & Organisational Development advised there was a focused piece of work underway looking at staff retention issues. For noting there are currently over 450 recruitment opportunities in various stages of progression. The Executive Assurance Reports were noted. RESOLVED: The Board received the IPR

TB188/19 Financial Position at Month 6, 2019/20

The report for month 6 of 2019/20 was received and noted by the Board. The Director of Finance noted the Trust had delivered the Quarter 2 plan and assured the Board that accounting adjustments had been made in conjunction with the Regulators. However he noted the financial position was set to get more challenging in the forthcoming months. The Trust currently has an unmitigated risk of £5m to the delivery of the control total. Agency spend had increased to above £1m which is a significant risk heading into

winter. The use of Thornbury Agency has reduced but there was still a reliance on Tier 2 nursing agency and an increase in the use of allocate on arrival which is paid at an enhanced rate. RESOLVED: The Board received the report

TB189/19 Risk Management: Risk Register

The Risk Management Risk Register was received and noted by the Board. A more detailed discussion took place relating the following risks:

• Risk 1688 – Inadequate Staffing Levels in Anaesthetic Department. This is for discussion at Risk & Compliance Group to consider the potential to reduce the risk score.

• Risk 2056 – Lost to Follow Up. Work continues following the identification of a number of individual incidents where patients were not on the RTT pathway. 98% of pathways closed down the remaining 2% required clinical review following which they were also closed down. Comprehensive overview will take place at the next Quality & Safety Committee.

RESOLVED: The Board received the Risk Register report.

OTHER REPORTS FOR RECEIVING

TB190/19 SINGLE IMPROVEMENT PLAN UPDATE (SIP)

The Board received the Single Improvement Plan Board update. The Acting Chief Executive & Director of Strategy advised that following a recent Southport & Ormskirk Improvement Board the Trust had been asked to review the detail contained within the narrative of the assurance reports to ensure a clear and comprehensive progress update was provided. Business Planning Session arranged for 7 November to agree quality and operational priorities for next year. The outline Pre Consultation Business Case has been completed and unlikely to be circulated until after the General Election on 13 December. RESOLVED: The Board received the paper.

CONCLUDING BUSINESS

TB192/19 Questions from Members of the Public

Ms Wright - Could the Trust confirm where the company was based that covered the out-sourcing of Radiology.

Page 15 of 210

9

There being no other business, the meeting was adjourned

In view of the high numbers of vacancy rates especially within Radiology the Trust had developed a solution to ensure the timely review of patient assessments was provided. The service has been outsourced via the national framework to Telemedicine who are an internationally based company with their head office in Australia. Ms Wright - Clarity around Criteria Led Discharge Juliette Cosgrove, Director of Nursing advised that the Multi-Disciplinary Team decides a criteria for discharge for individual patients and when this is met then the patient can go home. This is normally led by a nurse. This process is designed to prevent discharge delays when Therapies are required. It is not an alternative to using doctors.

TB193/19 ANY OTHER BUSINESS

To receive/discuss any other business not on the agenda.

TB194/19 Message from the Board

Messages which the Board wished to communicate to the wider Trust were:

• SAU – Spotlight on positive achievements

ACTING CHIEF EXECUTIVE’S REPORT TO BOARD – December 2019 Care Quality Commission report published Improvements to care and leadership were recognised in the Trust’s latest Care Quality Commission report published on 29 November. It was our first full inspection since November 2017.

Across many of the Trust’s services, the inspectors found staff to be kind, treated people with compassion and respected their privacy and dignity.

They said leaders were approachable, experienced and capable, and were helping staff to develop their skills. There was active engagement between patients, staff and leaders alongside external stakeholders and equality groups to further develop collaboration and improve services.

Eight areas of inspection were rated as improving: six at Southport hospital in urgent and emergency care, surgery and end of life care, and two in the children’s and young people’s services at Ormskirk.

End of life care and Sefton Sexual Health were both rated “good”. This is the first time they have been inspected as individual services. Overall the Trust remains rated “requires improvement”.

The report reflects the significant progress the Trust is making. While we recognise there is still much work to do, it also shows us on track to meet our ambition of being rated “good” by 2020.

“I want to thank all our staff for their dedication and hard work that made these improvements to patient care possible.”

£1.4m investment in electronic prescribing Our staff will move away from handwritten prescriptions next year thanks to a £1.4m investment in electronic prescribing. The Department of Health will give £700,000 to make the scheme possible. The new system will be provided by our existing electronic patient record provider and interface with the pharmacy system. Electronic prescribing will be phased in over 18 months with the first areas going live by the early summer. Working this way saves time and benefits patients by:

• Reducing medication errors by up to 30% compared with paper systems • Ensuring fast access to potentially lifesaving information on prescribed

medicines • Building up a complete, single electronic record to reduce duplication of

information-gathering

Electronic prescribing will also mean information about patients’ medicines can be more easily and reliably shared between all the clinical professionals a patient comes into contact with, including general practitioners. Further improvement is mortality performance I am pleased to report the latest national figure for SHMI, the Standardised Hospital Mortality Indicator, showed the Trust performing better than expected at 99.62.

SHMI is the ratio between the actual number of patients who die following hospitalisation and number who would be expected to die on the basis of average England figures. It also includes deaths in hospital and deaths 30 days after discharge.

The result is particularly pleasing given the Trust was a national outlier for SHMI less than a year ago. It is also a tribute to the dedication, commitment and hard work of staff across organisation that we have made such a dramatic improvement to patient care.

The fall reflects a rapid decline in the other national mortality indicator, HSMR (Hospital Standardised Mortality Ratio), which tracks the ratio of observed to expected deaths.

CQC Children’s and young people’s survey The latest Care Quality Commission (CQC) children and young people’s survey shows what our patients already know – we have a great team caring for children at Ormskirk hospital. One hundred and fifty-three patients responded to the annual national survey. It found the children’s team provided care that was as good or better than the other trusts surveyed. Staff introducing themselves to patients, giving them sufficient privacy and explaining procedures were particularly noted in the survey. Honorary professorship for Dr May Ng Congratulations to Dr May Ng who has been awarded the title of Honorary Associate Professor from the University of Liverpool. This is in recognition of her commitment to reduce variation in care for diabetes and her outstanding delivery of education and training in paediatric endocrinology and diabetes. Dr Ng, a Consultant Paediatrician who is Associate Medical Director for Specialist Services, has received numerous national awards for her leadership roles and has a wide research portfolio of more than 120 publications as well a best-selling book, A Journey With Brendan, documenting an autism journey with her son.

In brief … Chief Executive. Trish Armstrong-Child joined the Trust as Chief Executive on Monday 2 December. Flu vaccinations. As we approached the end of November, 83% of frontline staff had been vaccinated – this includes 98% of all allied health professionals such as therapists. Many non-clinical colleagues have also received their jab. Thanks a Bunch. Each month staff nominate colleagues for our Thanks a Bunch Award for someone who’s gone the extra mile and deserves recognition. The most recent awards were made to:

• The Anaesthetic team

• Lynne Finnigan, diabetic nurse

• Matt Parry, casting manager Therese Patten Acting Chief Executive December 2019

QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PLAN UPDATE DECEMBER 2019

1. PURPOSE OF REPORT

This paper provides the Board of Directors with an update on the progress of the Quality Improvement Plan and progress made in relation to actions and recommendations relating to the Quality Priorities

2. QUALITY IMPROVEMENT

The Quality Improvement Plan (QIP) is an integral component of the Trust’s Vision 2020 Programme. This means that in terms of the governance arrangements, the delivery of the QIP is monitored through Trust Board in the following way:

• The delivery of the programme is managed and monitored through the Hospital Management Board via the Hospital Improvement Board. Programme governance of the plan is managed through the Quality and Safety Group (QSG). Day to day management is delivered through the work streams.

• Reports feed into the Quality and Safety Committee to ensure appropriate assurance as part of the Trust’s Quality and Safety Integrated Performance Report and Quality Improvement Plan Update.

• External governance is provided through the Southport and Ormskirk Improvement Board

• Quality Priorities will also be reported through the annual Quality Account.

The Quality and Safety group operationally monitor delivery of the Quality Priorities:

• Care of the Older Patient

• Care of the Deteriorating Patient

• Infection Prevention and Control

• Medicines Management

In addition to the four identified Trust Quality Priorities, another four quality areas have been

identified and are reported to Hospital Improvement Board (HIB) based on the Vision 20/20

Single Improvement Plan, the work streams include:

• Clinical Workforce Development (incorporating clinical education, medical staffing numbers and professional standards)

• Quality Standards Compliance (Quality Improvement and CQC preparation and delivery of Quality Improvement Plan)

• Patient Experience and Engagement

• Patient Safety (complaints and Risk Management)

• Safeguarding (Improve training compliance and documentation regarding Mental Capacity Act (MCA) and Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS)

• Safe and Effective Discharge

• Documentation

The work streams will be reviewed again following publication of the 2019 CQC Report.

3. FUTURE REPORTING POSITION

The Quality Priority Programme Leads have been allocated a dedicated programme resource, the PMO support are developing full standardised suite of programme documentation including Driver Diagrams, Programme Initiation Documentation (PID), Highlight Report and Gantt Charts, these will be completed and signed off ready for committees in January 2020. For each of the four quality priorities, the Programme Leads are developing improvement measures to monitor improvement and provide assurance, these will include structure, process and outcomes. Any areas for improvement identified during the recent CQC inspections associated to the four quality priorities will be incorporated into the reporting framework.

The Deteriorating Patient summary below provides as example of how the new Quality

Priority reporting dashboard will As advised at the meeting this report template for quality

improvement is being modified to provide assurance and demonstrate a continuous cycle of

improvement.

1. Executive Summary

• The Month by Month HSMR is inherently unstable. It is affected by the number of

deaths in that month and the case mix, which changes. It does however allow

analysis of what the underlying contributors are. These are the causes of demand

capacity mismatch. This month (HSMR 61.5) discharge and AED flow improved

dramatically – thus the system could cope better with demand.

• The Rolling HSMR and SHMI give a better indication of direction of travel. The trend

of both is towards improvement, again reflecting the investment made in quality.

• Capacity and Demand must be actively managed, should demand increase,

commensurate increases in capacity are required to maintain safety. This is not just

attendance at AED, but can be across different parts of the system including

inpatient wards – what is our surge plan and how is it governed / activated?

• Mortality screening rates remain around 90%, 117 SJRs were performed in 2018-

2019, which is the target and has been met. The challenge now is using this

information to identify and propose improvement work. The first areas will be end of

life care, AKI and fractured Neck of Femur.

• The Board is asked to receive the report for assurance, the measures for mortality

alongside detail of the activity supporting the improvement of quality of care and

performance.

Explicit values for a rolling 12 month period, when no national target is available a baseline from last year has been used

2.2 SHMI (to May 19)

The SHMI is now being reported monthly by NHS digital and is therefore now presented as

such. SHMI is calculated as observed deaths over expected deaths as predicted by a risk

adjustment model. This figure includes deaths within 30 days of discharge and deaths of

patients receiving palliative care. Compared to the same time period in previous years, we

have less deaths in total and more deaths are ‘expected’ on the SHMI risk adjustment.

The trusts SHMI is within the expected range, meaning that our mortality rate as measured

in this model is ‘as expected’.

2.3 HSMR - Hospital Standardised Mortality Ratio (Monthly June 19)

The in-month HSMR for June (most recent month with data available) is 61.5 (previous two

months 96.8 and 121) This reflects the inherent volatility in mortality rates when viewed

monthly in isolation. Comparing May to June, the data suggests that the improved figure is

driven by improved harm free care (i.e. increased clinical quality) reduced time spent in the

A&E department - which implies more efficient diagnosis and treatment, and a reduction in

deaths after discharge and days spent waiting for discharge once clinically stable. HSMR

is also produced as an observed mortality over expected. This model excludes patient

deaths of those receiving palliative care. Palliative care rates are currently around 40% of

all deaths. This will influence the HSMR figure, but not the SHMI.

2.4 HSMR - Hospital Standardised Mortality Ratio (Rolling to June 19)

Rolling HSMR to June 2019 is 94.4. This is again within the expected range. Rolling HSMR

is averaged over 12 months and is therefore less prone to in-month variation. Consistent

factors affecting HSMR over the past 12 months are metrics of AED flow – particularly

arrival to departure times. This probably reflects clinical teams being able to assess,

diagnose and treat better and more effectively when clinical capacity and demand is

matched across the organisation from admission to departure. It is important to realise that

deterioration in AED flow my represent issues that have not been dealt with further down

the inpatient or community pathways.

2.5 Diagnosis Groups

Respiratory: LRTI and Acute bronchitis have a low risk of death. Analysis of these cases

shows that these patients frequently have high co-morbidity burdens and this is not being

captured as the primary diagnosis. These are now subject to clinical review to ascertain the

appropriate diagnosis. Pneumonia continues to be the subject of improvement work,

establishing and embedding the pneumonia clinical pathway and performing appropriate

diagnostics are the foci.

Renal Failure: A task and finish group is operational to lead AKI work. This is following the

AQ indicators of clinical quality, supported by the AKI pathway and 12 hourly AKI alerts.

3. Mortality Improvement Activity

The Deteriorating Patient Project is the second phase of the Reducing Avoidable Mortality

Project and is one of the Trust’s four key Quality Priorities in line with Vision 2020.

A more detailed update on the project can be found under Appendix 1 in the form of the

monthly project highlight report.

3.1 Update on Recognition and Care of the Deteriorating Patient Programme

Primary Driver Progress and achievements this month

Appropriate Assessment & Admission

The Surgical Ambulatory Emergency Care Project Group are working on a pathway for improved, appropriate GP referrals to the Surgical Assessment Unit. Members of the Emergency Department are working with Strata Networking Solutions to design an electronic GP referral system directly into the Ambulatory Care Unit.

Senior Ownership The Electronic Board Round is in the final iteration of the PDSA cycle. The pilot has been well received by the Consultants and Drs on Ward 10A (Gastro). The tool captures the level of escalation (ward care, critical care or end of life care) for each patient and records the direct or remote senior review of all Daily Board Rounds. There is a currently delay in securing resource from the IT Team to complete the fixes required to finalise the electronic functionality for roll out.

Primary Driver Progress and achievements this month

Correct Pathways of Care The AKI Steering Group is now driving the required activity to improve compliance to best practice. Linking into the Deteriorating Patient Group ensures the triangulation with business intelligence and the Critical Care Outreach Team. The scoping session of the 1st November was supported by attendance and input from the Advanced Quality Alliance (AQUA). New areas of focus have been incorporated into the work stream include: IV and Fluid Balance, Insulin, Abdominal Pain Pathway, Fractured Neck of Femur and Gastro-Intestinal Bleed.

Observations & Escalations The Observations QI Project continues on Ward 9A (Short Stay Unit). Iterations of the PDSA cycle are continuing with the use of business intelligence to identify when and why patients are being taken off protocol for observations and how compliance with the Trust Track and Trigger Policy can be improved. Changes to reporting are with System C to realign ‘breach’ and ‘overdue’ parameters with Trust protocol to produce accurate reporting in line with revised timeframes. Training requirements are being scoped in order to ensure that all relevant employees have the most up to date training in management of the deteriorating patient. (Acute Illness Management Training (AIMS) and Red Day Training in particular for which funding will be required to deliver.

Future Care Planning Strata Networking Solutions have undertaken process mapping with key stakeholders from the Trust, Queenscourt Hospice and community service providers to design a tool with which Anticipatory Clinical Management Plans can be shared. This will ensure that there is one version of the truth and a single plan that can be accessed for each relevant patient at any access point. The project team is yet to understand from Strata to what level the model will be delivered under the existing contract.

Learning from Deaths The Trust has a total of 40 SJR level one reviewers across all specialities that are key to the success of the process. An increased focus of thematic reviewing of deaths from the SJR process will support the dissemination of learnings. The first thematic presentation to the Grand Round will be given on 29th November by Dr MacDonald on End of Life deaths. The revised Learning from Deaths Board Report along with high level fortnightly Mortality Meetings will support the delivery of a responsive and learning focused approach to the screening of deaths and the findings of the Structured Judgement Review.

4. Learning from Deaths: Structured Judgement Reviews (SJR)

4.1 Screening

The above table details the screening process and rates. This demonstrates improved

screening with September and October 2019 meeting the 90% target.

Within 3 months, on average 80% of reviews have been completed. There are delays in

terms of the availability of case notes for review, and the timeliness of allocation of a

reviewer. These process issues are under investigation to try and make reviewing more

timely.

4.2 First Structured Judgement Review

The number of reviews completed is gradually increasing. 117 reviews have been

completed for 2018/19, meeting our target of 10% of all inpatient deaths.

Graphical presentation of all reviews performed demonstrates that ongoing (or ward

based) care, in the opinion of our reviewers, is where a patient is most likely to

experience ‘poor’ or at best ‘adequate’ care. Improvement focus should be targetted at

this area of the patients journey, which is reflected in the senior ownership and correct

pathways of care aspects of the Deteriorating Patient Project.

Page 50 of 210

11

When broken down further by clinical areas with 18 or more reviews it can be seen that

the situation with ongoing care is most acute in the general medical population. Also of

note is a higher proportion than overall of adequate, poor or very poor end of life care.

Critical Care reviews have a higher proportion of excellence overall, but have 3 cases of

poor care around a procedure, which is a higher proportion than other clinical areas.

Analysis of individual cases in individual clinical areas is required for further insights.

4.3 Second Structured Judgement Review

This table shows the conversion rate by specialty from 1st to 2nd SJR. The criteria for

this is ‘poor’ or ‘very poor’ care in the overall category. To date 8 second reviews have

been completed. All second reviews are presented to the Mortality Operational

Committee.

The data above demonstrates the change in the assessment of overall care and the

change in avoidability judgement between first and second SJR. In 5/9 cases the care

judgement remains the same, in 3 further cases the judgement has changed by one

category, and in a further case the judgement has changed dramatically from, ‘very

poor’ to ‘good’. These cases are all discussed at MOG to allow the rationale to be

presented by the reviewers.

An avoidability assessment is made by the first reviewer using the Hogan scale. This

assessment is then made again by the second reviewer. The case is presented at the

MOG and a committee decision is made on avoidability. Should the committee agree

that the death is more likely than not to be avoidable (definite or probable) then this

case is referred to SIRG for appropriate action. To date 2 cases have been identified

as avoidable by first reviewers, this judgement has been upheld in one case, which

was referred to SIRG, underwent a full RCA, and the findings have been shared with

the Sefton Coroner’s office.

4.6 Lessons Learned: Process & Activity

The trust will hold 3 Grand Rounds a year based on the finding from SJRs. The first of these will

be held on the 29th of November and facilitated by Dr McDonald. The discussion will focus

around decision making at the end of life using case examples from the past 12 months.

A Lessons Learned Bulletin is produced in order to communicate out important points from the

MOG, including relevant findings from SJRs. This is produced on a monthly basis by Janette

Mills, Head of Audit and Effectiveness.

We have cross referenced data from coding and SJR to identify ten cases of death from AKI.

These cases will be reviewed for learning to add extra information to the AKI improvement

work.

Further work is planned to use our SJR database to provide an information source to design

improvements going forward such as in the case of femoral neck fractures.

5. Conclusions & Recommendations

Successive mortality reports have stressed the link between AED flow and mortality

rates. This report also makes this point. However, the association is with the whole

system and not just AED. AED flow deteriorates when whole system capacity is

outstripped by demand. When this occurs the system becomes less safe and mortality

rates rise.

Our hospital population is a population which does not have a large degree of

physiological resilience, either due to frailty or multi-morbidity, thus, variations in the

capacity / demand equation are particularly dangerous.

The equation is affected by the number of patients arriving, the number departing and

the capacity of the staff within the system (vacancies, stress, sickness, training and

experience in the organisation).

Better balancing these demands by increasing staffing and their skill set, standardising

processes of care and working to provide alternatives to hospital admission - were

appropriate, has reduced our headline mortality figures and improved the safety of our

care.

Recent events demonstrate that sudden increases in demand, without commensurate

increases in capacity threaten safe patient care. This can either be predictable (winter)

or unpredictable.

Recommendations

Proactive monitoring of capacity and demand within the system occurs; those

performing this monitoring must be clear that decisions taken to manage surges in

demand have real consequence on patient mortality.

Continue to evaluate and invest in activity which provides capacity to manage serious

illness quickly and aggressively to reduce complications and length of stay.

Encourage and support interventions which support staff to work reliably and

consistently, with minimal variation, such as through the adoption of appropriate IT or

best practice pathways which are clear and available.

Support ward processes and ward care with the same intention as supporting AED in

order to improve the quality of patient care and thereby improve flow and improve

safety. Start by engaging with ward teams such as junior medical staff and junior nurses

to understand the issues they face.

PUBLIC TRUST BOARD 4 December 2019

Agenda Item TB203/19d Report Title Monthly Safe Nurse & Midwifery

Staffing Report – October 2019

Executive Lead Juliette Cosgrove, Director of Nursing Midwifery Therapies and Governance

Lead Officer Claire Blackman-Deputy Director of nursing

Carol Fowler Assistant Director of Nursing – Workforce

Action Required

(Definitions below)

To Approve To Note

To Assure ✓ To Receive

For Information

Executive Summary

The Trust Board safe staffing highlight report for October 2019 is set out below:

The purpose of this report is to provide the Board with the current position of nursing staffing in line with National Quality Board, National Institute of Health & Care Excellence and NHS Improvement guidance. The report includes as a comparable metric, Care Hours per Patient Day (CHpPD) which supports the recording and reporting of nursing and care staff deployment. This report presents the safer staffing position for the month of October 2019. Alert

• For the month of October 2019 the Trust reports safe staffing against the national average (90%) at 92.3%.

Advise

• Care Hours per Patient Day (CHpPD) reporting remains under review to support accuracy of data reporting. Trust CHpPD reports at 8.3

• The Nursing Safe Staffing report is under reconstruction with a revised report anticipated in January 2020. The review includes workforce dashboard reporting and triangulation against clinical outcomes.

• The Trusts reporting to UNIFY has been reviewed to assure the Safe Staffing reporting includes the staff allocated on arrival of shift to clinical areas from the flexible workforce pool. Retrospective review has identified slight uplift to the trust safe staffing % reporting and an application to resubmit this data to UNIFY has therefore been requested by the trust.

Assure

• No harm events have occurred to our patients due to staffing levels

Recommendation

The Board is asked to receive the report

Strategic Objective(s) and Principal Risks(s)

Strategic Objective Principal Risk

✓ SO1 Improve clinical outcomes and patient safety to ensure we deliver high quality services

If quality is not maintained in line with regulatory standards this will impede clinical outcomes and patient safety.

SO2 Deliver services that meet NHS constitutional and regulatory standards

If the Trust cannot achieve its key performance targets it may lead to loss of services.

SO3 Efficiently and productively provide care within agreed financial limits

If the Trust cannot meet its financial regulatory standards and operate within agreed financial resources the sustainability of services will be in question.

SO4 Develop a flexible, responsive workforce of the right size and with the right skills who feel valued and motivated

If the Trust does not attract, develop, and retain a resilient and adaptable workforce with the right capabilities and capacity there will be an impact on clinical outcomes and patient experience.

✓ SO5 Enable all staff to be patient-centred leaders building on an open and honest culture and the delivery of the Trust values

If the Trust does not have leadership at all levels patient and staff satisfaction will be impacted

SO6 Engage strategic partners to maximise the opportunities to design and deliver sustainable services for the population of Southport, Formby and West Lancashire

If the system does not have an agreed acute services strategy it may lead to non-alignment of partner organisations plans resulting in the inability to develop and deliver sustainable services

No harm was caused to patients as a result of these incidents.

In October there were 4 nursing red flags reported in month, 3 on ward 14A, 1 on ward 7b. All incidents have been supported and managed through trust process and there has been no reported correlation with patient harm.

Executive assurance and action plans have been provided in order to provide assurance that corrective measures are in place. The reporting forms part of the Trust’s Performance and Accountability Framework, where governance is in place to drive and monitor both operational performance improvement and delivery of the Vision 2020 Single Improvement Plan. Update on development: The development of the IPR has been an ongoing process over the last year. To date, several improvements have been made to both the structure and content of the report to enable ease of use and clarity of understanding. The improvements include:

• SPC charts for each indicator in line with NHSI recommendations

• The inclusion of targets where these were previously not included

• The addition of trajectories of performance where this is practicable and appropriate (blue line on graph)

• The division of the ‘red/green’ box on the detailed report to enable a clear picture of where the Trust is performing against both target and trajectory – a white box indicates ‘no trajectory’

• Executive sign off, for their respective KPIs

• Ongoing data cleansing and data quality audits – data quality group set up

• HR Trajectories have been agreed and will be included going forward

• Continued support to colleagues in developing good quality and useful narrative - Peer review of IPR introduced

• Results of MIAA audit of IPR recommended stability in design to enable documentation of the data collection process, and a focus on data quality

The Board is asked to receive the report and highlight any further assurance necessary in relation to areas of poor performance.

✓ SO1 Improve clinical outcomes and patient safety to ensure we deliver high quality services

If quality is not maintained in line with regulatory standards this will impede clinical outcomes and patient safety.

✓ SO2 Deliver services that meet NHS constitutional and regulatory standards

If the Trust cannot achieve its key performance targets it may lead to loss of services.

✓ SO3 Efficiently and productively provide care within agreed financial limits

If the Trust cannot meet its financial regulatory standards and operate within agreed financial resources the sustainability of services will be in question.

✓ SO4 Develop a flexible, responsive workforce of the right size and with the right skills who feel valued and motivated

If the Trust does not attract, develop, and retain a resilient and adaptable workforce with the right capabilities and capacity there will be an impact on clinical outcomes and patient experience.

✓ SO5 Enable all staff to be patient-centred leaders building on an open and honest culture and the delivery of the Trust values

If the Trust does not have leadership at all levels patient and staff satisfaction will be impacted

✓ SO6 Engage strategic partners to maximise the opportunities to design and deliver sustainable services for the population of Southport, Formby and West Lancashire

If the system does not have an agreed acute services strategy it may lead to non-alignment of partner organisations plans resulting in the inability to develop and deliver sustainable services

PUBLIC TRUST BOARD 4 December 2019

Agenda Item TB205/19 Report

Title

Director of Finance Report – Month 7

2019/20

Executive Lead Steve Shanahan, Director of Finance

Lead Officer Kevin Walsh, Deputy Director of Finance

Action Required

(Definitions below)

To Approve To Note

To Assure To Receive

For Information

Executive Summary

In the latest System Financial Recovery Plan the Trust is forecasting a year end overspend of £3.6

million against the deficit plan of £26.6 million (excluding PSF/FRF), after achieving the plan at the

end of Quarter 2 with non- recurrent assistance thus securing £3.654 million PSF/FRF funding.

The Month 7 financial plan was not achieved with expenditure higher than the trajectory allowed to

achieve the forecast outturn. The main reasons for this are; pay spend with both monthly agency

and bank levels at their highest levels; CIP delivery to date and a forecast gap at the end of the year

of £2.0 million (previous month was £1.7 million).

The overall System financial position is forecasting an over spend of £24.53 million against the

£25.6 million deficit control total (excluding PSF/FRF)

The Board is asked to receive the Finance Report – Month 7 2019/20.

Strategic Objective(s) and Principal Risks(s)

(The content provides evidence for the following Trust’s strategic objectives for 2019/20)

Strategic Objective Principal Risk

SO1 Improve clinical outcomes and patient safety to ensure we deliver high quality services

If quality is not maintained in line with regulatory standards this will impede clinical outcomes and patient safety.

SO2 Deliver services that meet NHS constitutional and regulatory standards

If the Trust cannot achieve its key performance targets it may lead to loss of services.

SO3 Efficiently and productively provide care within agreed financial limits

If the Trust cannot meet its financial regulatory standards and operate within agreed financial resources the sustainability of services will be in question.

SO4 Develop a flexible, responsive workforce of the right size and with the right skills who feel valued and motivated

If the Trust does not attract, develop, and retain a resilient and adaptable workforce with the right capabilities and capacity there will be an impact on clinical outcomes and patient experience.

SO5 Enable all staff to be patient-centred leaders building

If the Trust does not have leadership at all levels patient and staff satisfaction will be impacted

on an open and honest culture and the delivery of the Trust values

SO6 Engage strategic partners to maximise the opportunities to design and deliver sustainable services for the population of Southport, Formby and West Lancashire

If the system does not have an agreed acute services strategy it may lead to non-alignment of partner organisations plans resulting in the inability to develop and deliver sustainable services

Director of Finance Report – Month 7 2019/20

1. Purpose

1.1. This report provides the Board with the financial position for Month 7 (October 2019) and the

progress on delivery of the Trust’s control total.

1.2. It also provides an update on the Trusts’ forecast outturn alongside the overall System

position.

1.3. The Trust signed up to its 2019/20 deficit control total of £8.296 million (£26.567 million deficit

before non-recurrent funding of £18.271 million).

1.4. The non-recurrent funding consists of Provider Sustainability Funding (PSF) of £3.464 million

and Financial Recovery Fund (FRF) of £14.807 million.

2. Executive Summary

2.1. The month 7 (YTD) position is a deficit after PSF/FRF of £8.106 million against a plan of

£7.235 million resulting in £869,000 worse than plan. Before PSF/FRF the YTD deficit is

£16.328 million.

2.2. The month 7 (in month) positon is a deficit after PSF/FRF of £0.545 million against a surplus

plan of £0.315 million resulting in £0.861 million worse than plan. Before PSF/FRF the in-

month deficit is £2.372 million.

2.3. The Trust’s forecast outturn, based on month 6 performance and shared with NHSI/E on 1

November 2019, is £3.6 million overspend against the deficit plan.

2.4. Month 7 expenditure is higher than the trajectory used to achieve this forecast outturn.

2.5. The 2019/20 CIP programme is £1,350,000 behind plan at month 7; the forecast outturn is

£4.3 million against the £6.3 million plan leaving an unidentified gap of £2.0 million.

2.6. If material cash reducing CIP schemes cannot be transacted during the remainder of the year

then any pressure on the expenditure run rate will not be mitigated.

2.7. The table below is the I&E statement for October:

YEAR TO DATE IN MONTH

2.8. The YTD deficit in the above table (£16.328 million) equates to a monthly average of £2.3

million.

2.9. As previously highlighted a number of non recurrent items were actioned in Quarters 1 and 2.

2.10. It is estimated that the current underlying deficit remains in the region of £2.7 million per month

excluding PSF/FRF which is an underlying annualised deficit of £32.0 million.

3. 2019/20 Contract Position

3.1. The value of the Southport & Formby CCG contract is £74.9 million.

3.2. The contract is a “Cost based contract” which has a number of “conditional income” elements.

3.3. These conditional elements, and performance to date, are shown in the table below:

Annual M7 YTD M7 YTD M7 YTD

Plan Plan Actual Var

Total 3,500,000 2,041,667 432,959 (1,608,707)

3.4. The Trust is assuming that it will achieve the £3.5 million at the year end and, therefore, is

accruing the full £2.041 million in the above table in the month 7 YTD position.

3.5. An additional £200,000 has been accrued in the month 7 YTD position (current expected year

Page 112 of 210

end contract over performance of £1.1 million results in a contract payment of £76.0 million).

This is based on expected year end contract performance and is reviewed monthly.

3.6. Latest projections indicate that if Southport & Formby CCG was on a PbR contract value the

year end projection is in the region of £78.8 million.

3.7. Apart from the Sefton CCGs, all other CCG contracts are on a PbR type contract.

3.8. The commissioning income annual budget in the above table includes:-

• £51.0 million for West Lancashire CCG; based on month 7 activity performance, and

planned recovery of the elective plan, this is forecast to be achieved.

• £74.9 million for Southport & Formby CCG; the Trust is currently underperforming against

the conditional elements of the contract but the contract is expected to overachieve.

4. Income

4.1. Elective activity performance has been improving over the last few months. It should be noted

that this improvement has had an adverse impact on outpatient activity as cancelled elective

sessions were previously replaced with outpatient work.

4.2. Non elective activity has once again overperformed in month.

4.3. Trust activity and income performance at month 7 YTD is as follows:

• Elective – activity is 3.9% below plan; £435,000 loss of income.

• A&E – activity 5.5% above plan; £353,000 of additional income.

• Non Elective – activity is 2.4% below plan; £2,567,000 additional income due to case mix

• Outpatients – activity is 3.9% above plan; £627,000 of additional income

4.4. Not all of the above activity performance is payable in 2019/20 due to:

• the application of the “blended tariff” adjustment means that only a proportion of the non-

elective value is payable

• Sefton CCG’s contract applies the “blended tariff” to all points of delivery.

4.5. The Trust’s commissioning income for month 7 YTD position assumes the following:

• Southport & Formby CCG will overperform against the contract at the year end (full year

contract value is £74.9 million; overperformance of £1.1 million).

• £200,000 of this overperformance was bought into the month 6 income position and this

has also been accrued at month 7.

• All other commissioning income is paid in line with the agreed contract.

5. Expenditure

5.1. Please refer to attached appendices for more detailed information regarding expenditure and

Whole Time Equivalent (WTE).

5.2. Underlying expenditure levels over the last few months have been fairly consistent but have

increased in month 7.

5.3. The Board will recall that a number of non-recurrent expenditure reductions were applied in

month 3 in order to achieve the Quarter 1 control total.

5.4. No reductions were applied in months 4 and 5 but in month 6 a number of further adjustments

(mostly non-recurrent) were made which contributed to the achievement of the Quarter 2

control total.

5.5. In month 7 no adjustments have been made and this has contributed to a deteriorating

performance.

5.6. The most material increase in expenditure is within nursing staff with October 2019 seeing the

largest monthly nurse expenditure and WTE date. Although the substantive WTE has seen a

welcome increase this month (from 1,102 to 1,121 WTE) both bank and agency have also

increased.

5.7. It is important that substantive staff increase and vacancies reduce from both a quality and

finance perspective. Whilst bank is financially preferable to agency staff it is apparent that the

premium associated with bank is also significant as the majority of shifts covered are evenings

and weekends.

5.8. Further review of this will take place alongside the 2020/21 budget process.

5.9. Non pay areas have also seen a slight increase with some of this attributable to the additional

elective work now taking place.

6. Bank/agency spend

6.1. The Trust spent £2.052 million in October on bank and agency staff.

6.2. Monthly agency spend has increased in October to £1,109,000 (9.3% of the pay bill); Medical

staff £511,000; Nursing staff £458,000

6.3. Month 7 YTD agency spend is £6.978 million (8.4% of the pay bill); Medical staff £3.717

million; Nursing staff £2.619 million

6.4. The agency target cap of £4.891 million set by NHSI for 2019/20 was breached in month 6.

6.5. Bank spend is consistent with previous months; October is £944,000 (8.3% of the total pay bill)

bringing YTD spend to £6.533 million (7.9% of the total pay bill).

6.6. As referred to above both bank and agency attract a considerable premium element and is a

key area of focus for the Trust to improve its financial position.

7. Cost Improvement Plan (CIP)

7.1. The Trust’s I&E plan assumes a £6.3 million CIP is delivered in 2019/20 from both increased

income and reduced expenditure.

7.2. Following contract discussions the plan is mainly dependent on expenditure reduction.

7.3. The table below illustrates the targets with performance to date.

19/20 Plan - Expenditure (pay) 2,465 3,965 355 118 (237) 2,094 959 (1,135) 1,377 1,015

7.4. The forecast outturn against the £6.314 million target has reduced to is £4.359 million leaving

an unidentified gap of £1.955 million.

8. Forecast Outturn

8.1. The Trust has been signalling that it will not achieve its financial plan based on current

financial performance.

8.2. Despite the achievement of the Quarter 2 plan a large element of the income and expenditure

adjustments will impact in Quarter 4.

8.3. The Trust’s expenditure levels in the first half of the year, together with assumptions on CIP

delivery and future impact of agreed business cases, derived a predicted £5.1 million

overspend against the plan.

8.4. This was included in the System Recovery plan submitted to NHSI/E on 18th October 2019

and discussed at this Board’s October meeting.

8.5. Following review the System was instructed to find further schemes to reduce the forecast gap

from control totals.

8.6. The Trust has identified a further improvement of £1.49 million and is now predicting an

overspend of £3.61 million against the £26.6 million deficit plan. NHSI/E is monitoring the

Trust’s performance against this forecast on a weekly basis.

8.7. The table below shows the control total and current forecast for all System partners:

S&O

NHST

SS CCG SF CCG Winter Total

£m £m £m £m £m

2019/20 Control Total (excl PSF/FRF) (26.60) 1.00 0.00 0.00 (25.60)

Winter 0.00 0.00 0.00 (1.10) (1.10)

Forecast overspend (3.61) (9.12) (10.70) 0.00 (23.43)

Forecast Outturn (excl PSF/FRF) (30.21) (8.12) (10.70) (1.10) (50.13)

8.8. Month 7 expenditure levels were in the region of £0.2 million above the Trust’s trajectory to

achieve £3.61 million adverse against plan.

8.9. The pressure on the expenditure run rate as vacancies are filled (including agreed business

cases) is not being mitigated by real expenditure reductions form the CIP programme.

8.10. Based on current expenditure levels and CIP performance it is highly likely that the Trust will

not achieve the Quarter 3 deficit plan without significant CCG support and, therefore, will not

be in receipt of the PSF/FRF for that quarter (£5.481 million).

9. Cash

9.1. The previous large cash balance (October’s opening balance was £7 million) has now been

fully utilised with November closing cash balance £1.1million which is in line with the terms

and conditions of our revenue support loans..

9.2. Performance against the cash plan in October 2019 was on target overall, however, cash

outflows needed controlling to ensure the target was met.

9.3. Quarter 2 FRF funding of £2.961 million was received on 15th November 2019; it was not

forecast to be received until December 2019.

9.4. The uncertainty of timing around PSF and FRF funding has made forecasting a challenge

9.5. The Trust is not achieving the Better Payment Practice Code (BPPC) target, however, a focus

on delivering the e-invoicing target will help with both the BPPC and reduce the risk of

additional contractual penalty charges by NHS Shared Business Services.

10. Debtors

10.1. Debt levels have increased from £3.8 million at the end of September 2019 to £4.9 million at

the end of October 2019.

10.2. Greater than 90 day debt has increased from £1,466,998 last month to £2,021,405 this month.

10.3. The majority of this increase is in NHS debt and is linked mostly to a revoked credit note to

NHS England for -£364,000.

10.4. There has been some increase in non NHS debt and this is entirely due to Local Authority

invoices (Lancashire County Council) which are on SBS (Shared Business Services) dunning

levels.

10.5. A monthly debt management call takes place with SBS and this includes a review of the top 10

debtors (NHS and non-NHS) over 31 days and by dunning responsibility.

10.6. The majority of >90 day debt is NHS related (as per table above) and it can be difficult to

chase as this debt can’t be referred to external debt recovery.

11. Capital

11.1. Actual spend in month 7 was higher than month 6, at £535,000 bringing the cumulative actual

spend to date to £2,098,000 against a planned spend year to date of £4,027,000.

11.2. The low spend is more a reflection of an optimistic plan that schemes such as the ward

upgrades and library extension would have progressed further by this point in the year.

11.3. Commitments have increased in the month to £1,137,000, partly IT, but mainly Medical

Equipment on order which has recently been approved at Capital Investment Group (CIG).

11.4. Medical Equipment has the highest level of commitments, closely followed by IT which is

mostly connected with the Windows 10 rollout and Careflow Connect.

11.5. Taking actual and committed spend together at £3,087,000 (excluding donated and GE

radiology assets) and comparing this against the annual plan, £5,103,000, then the Trust is at

60.5% of the plan at the end of October 2019.

11.6. The first 5 wards of the Southport ward upgrade project will be completed before Christmas

with a 6th planned for completion before the end of the financial year.

11.7. Work is near completion in the Spinal Injuries Unit on the Isolation work and the bathroom

upgrades which were required as a result of the Klebsiella outbreak.

11.8. IM&T contingency scheme at £450,000 was originally intended for the datacentre, however,

this is unlikely to be implemented in 2019/20 and a re-utilisation of these monies to other IT

projects planned for next year is reflected in the revised plan.

11.9. The Trust has been successful in receiving £700,000 funding for ePMA (Electronic Prescribing

Page 116 of 210

and Medicines Administration) system.

11.10. NHSE/I has supported the Trust to apply for a capital loan of £935,000 to address the high risk

items identified in the six facet survey. This could be received in 2019/20.

11.11. The Board approved a revised capital plan on 6th November and included the authorisation to

proceed with the development of additional bed capacity at Ormskirk hospital as part of the

winter plan at a forecast cost of £350,000.

11.12. However, the full cost of these works is now £495,000 which includes backlog maintenance.

11.13. Under the new scheme of delegation Finance Performance and Investment Committee

approved the additional cost of the scheme.

11.14. This week confirmation was received that capital funding for winter planning of £500,000 had

been awarded; the relevant paperwork is awaited (Memorandum of Understanding) and once

signed off an application will be made to draw down public dividend capital.

11.15. Based on current information the MRI scanner project is back on track in and this scheme will

be delivered by the end of March 2020 as originally planned.

12. Recommendations

12.1. The Board is asked to receive the Finance Report – Month 7 2019/20.

Lead Officer Katharine Martin, Interim Head of Risk

Mandy Power, Assistant Director of Integrated Governance

Action Required

(Definitions below)

To Assure ✓ To Receive

For Information

Executive Summary

Since the last meeting, one new risk has been added onto the risk register.

• 2122 – Medicines Management (15). This risk has been added as a result of concerns raised by CQC. A Medicines Management Improvement Plan has been developed with actions underway.

Discussions have taken place at Risk & Compliance Group to add an additional two risks onto this risk register. These relate to ‘Fragile Services’ and ‘Medical Staffing’. These will be drafted for approval at Risk & Compliance Group in December. Since the last meeting, no risks have been removed from the risk register. There are currently 8 risks on the High Level Risk register. These are:

• 1688 - Inadequate Staffing Levels in Anaesthetic Department (will be consolidated into Medical Staffing risk)

• 1902 - Failure to comply & improve governance of services in relation to the areas of non-compliance identified by CQC

• 2052 - Older Peoples Care

• 1862 - Maintaining safe quality nursing care with current level of nursing & HCA vacancies

• 1942 - Eradicating the Trust’s deficit by 2023/24

• 2072 - Failure to achieve 2019/20 financial control total

• 2056 - Missing Patient appointments/admissions

• 2122 – Medicines Management

Strategic Objective Principal Risk

✓ SO1 Improve clinical outcomes and patient safety to ensure we deliver high quality services

If quality is not maintained in line with regulatory standards this will impede clinical outcomes and patient safety.

✓ SO2 Deliver services that meet NHS constitutional and regulatory standards

If the Trust cannot achieve its key performance targets it may lead to loss of services.

✓ SO3 Efficiently and productively provide care within agreed financial limits

If the Trust cannot meet its financial regulatory standards and operate within agreed financial resources the sustainability of services will be in question.

✓ SO4 Develop a flexible, responsive workforce of the right size and with the right skills who feel valued and motivated

If the Trust does not attract, develop, and retain a resilient and adaptable workforce with the right capabilities and capacity there will be an impact on clinical outcomes and patient experience.

✓ SO5 Enable all staff to be patient-centred leaders building on an open and honest culture and the delivery of the Trust values

If the Trust does not have leadership at all levels patient and staff satisfaction will be impacted

✓ SO6 Engage strategic partners to maximise the opportunities to design and deliver sustainable services for the population of Southport, Formby and West Lancashire

Absence of clear direction, engagement and leadership across the system is a risk to the sustainability of the Trust and will lead to declining clinical standards.

There are nine risks rated as red with a further six rated as amber, after mitigation is in place.

The executive assurance reports are included in the paper for information purposes.

Strategic Objective(s) and Principal Risks(s)

(The content provides evidence for the following Trust’s strategic objectives for 2019/20)

Strategic Objective Principal Risk

x SO1 Improve clinical outcomes and patient safety to ensure we deliver high quality services

If quality is not maintained in line with regulatory standards this will impede clinical outcomes and patient safety.

x SO2 Deliver services that meet NHS constitutional and regulatory standards

If the Trust cannot achieve its key performance targets it may lead to loss of services.

x SO3 Efficiently and productively provide care within agreed financial limits

If the Trust cannot meet its financial regulatory standards and operate within agreed financial resources the sustainability of services will be in question.

x SO4 Develop a flexible, responsive workforce of the right size and with the right skills who feel valued and motivated

If the Trust does not attract, develop, and retain a resilient and adaptable workforce with the right capabilities and capacity there will be an impact on clinical outcomes and patient experience.

x SO5 Enable all staff to be patient-centred leaders building on an open and honest culture and the delivery of the Trust values

If the Trust does not have leadership at all levels patient and staff satisfaction will be impacted

x SO6 Engage strategic partners to maximise the opportunities to design and deliver sustainable services for the population of Southport, Formby and West Lancashire

Absence of clear direction, engagement and leadership across the system is a risk to the sustainability of the Trust and will lead to declining clinical standards.

Charity Investment Policy

1 Introduction 1.1 The purpose of the investment policy is to ensure that the charitable fund portfolio is effectively

managed by providing a framework to the Investment advisors that sets out the allocation to each asset class within the constraints set by the charity.

1.2 This policy covers the framework allocation and the ethical constraints.

2 Policy changes

2.1 UK and overseas equity should be combined rather than listed separately with a limited risk of 75%.

2.2 Upper limit on alternatives (now that it encompasses a wider range of assets) should be lifted to 15%.

2.3 Include a comment on capacity for loss in our investment policy statements – see below.

2.4 ‘The Charity has a moderate ability to bear investment losses which means that in extreme circumstances falls in the value of the portfolio of up to 35% would not have a material impact on the overall financial ability to carry out its function. Under the current structure and based on historic data, the investment manager estimates this strategy has the potential to fall up to 23% peak to trough in an investment cycle.’

2.5 On ethical investments include the point that the charity will not invest in no win no fee medical claims companies.

3 Charitable Fund Committee

3.1 The above changes have been agreed by the Charity Committee and appendix 1 sets out the final investment policy.

3.2 The Investment advisors also provided a comparison with other charities in terms of risk

appetite which has been shared with the Committee members. 4 Risk appetite 4.1 Based on other charities, this investment policy in general is slightly on the cautious side of the

‘average’ charity, with a marginally lower equity content. 4.2 The reason for this is due to the ongoing potential that the portfolio may need to help meet

short term requirements when there are cash flow issues and investments need to be liquidated.

4.3 With the charity relaunch and the prospect of a significant increase in donations, then a further

review in 6 months may be required to re-assess risk appetite. 5 Conclusion 5.1 The final investment policy satisfies the charity’s objectives and has been through the

appropriate review and governance. 6 Recommendation 6.1 It is recommended that the Trust Board acting as the Corporate Trustee approve the charity’s

investment policy.

Appendix 1 – Charity Investment policy

Introduction The purpose of the investment policy is to ensure that the charitable fund portfolio is effectively managed by providing a framework to the Investment advisors that sets out the allocation to each asset class within the constraints set by the charity. Allocation

Asset Class Allocation Tactical Variance

Total range

UK Sovereign Debt 30% +/-10% 20% to 40%

Cash 0% +15% 0% to 15%

Equity Investments 65% +/-10% 55% to 75%

Alternative Assets (hedge, commercial property, commodities)

5% +/- 10% 0% to 15%

In terms of the risk profile and time horizon a medium risk strategy should be adopted with an indefinite time horizon. Ethical constraints The following ethical investment constraints have been set by the Trustees, which means that investments in those companies involved wholly or substantially in the following are excluded:

1. Tobacco. 2. Armaments. 3. Alcohol. 4. Betting/gaming. 5. Payday loans. 6. No win no fee medical claims companies.

Wholly or substantially is defined as more than two thirds of the business. Equity constraint No individual direct equity holding should account for more than 10% of the equity exposure of the fund. Portfolio transfers Transfers of cash into and out of the portfolio should be managed between the Charity and the Investment advisors to ensure there is sufficient notice period to make informed decisions. Where the Trust foresees that it will require funds to be liquidated from the portfolio, the Charity should inform the Investment advisors with details of the value to be liquidated and the required liquidation date.

Page 183 of 210

Surplus funds in the charity’s bank account over and above the current requirements should be transferred to the Investment advisors. The Assistant Director of Finance has delegated authority to transfer monies into the portfolio and to request transfers out. Reserves The value of the portfolio must always be greater than the charity’s reserve target. The reserve is made up of the unrestricted funds (general). Targets Income generation from the portfolio is from dividends on equity shares and UK sovereign debt. The target income generation is reviewed annually and currently stands at 3.5% of the average annual portfolio value. Capacity for loss The Charity has a moderate ability to bear investment losses which means that in extreme circumstances falls in the value of the portfolio of up to 35% would not have a material impact on the overall financial ability to carry out its function. Under the current structure and based on historic data, the investment manager estimates this strategy has the potential to fall up to 23% peak to trough in an investment cycle. Monitoring The Investment advisors will report each quarter to the Charitable Fund Committee. The report will include the following:

1. Full details of the portfolio. 2. Comparison of returns against an appropriate industry benchmark. 3. Income generation for the quarter. 4. A table showing the actual allocation percentages by asset class.

Review An annual performance review will take place at the end of each financial year. This in turn will feed into the investment policy review where the allocation of the portfolio can be considered together with the income generation target.

Learning lessons to improve our people practices 1. Introduction

This paper is to advise the Trust Board about the content of a letter sent to Provider chief executives and chairs on the 24th May 2019 from Baroness Dido Harding, Chair, NHS England and NHS Improvement about why Trusts need to learn lessons to improve our people practices. The letter shares the outcomes of an important piece of work recently undertaken in response to a very tragic event that occurred at a London NHS trust three years ago. This paper will provide details of the case of Amin Abdullah who was the subject of an investigation and disciplinary procedure in late 2015 and includes additional guidance relating to the management and oversight of local investigation and disciplinary procedures. 2. Background In the case of Amin Abdullah the protracted procedure culminated in Amin’s summary dismissal on the grounds of gross misconduct. Tragically, in February 2016 just prior to an arranged appeal hearing, Amin took his own life. This triggered the commissioning of an independent inquiry undertaken by Verita Consulting, the findings of which were reported to the board of the employing Trust and to NHS Improvement in August 2018. The report concluded that, in addition to serious procedural errors having been made, throughout the investigation and disciplinary process Amin was treated very poorly, to the extent that his mental health was severely impacted. Verita’s recommendations were accepted by the Trust, in full, and have largely been implemented. Subsequently, NHS Improvement established a ‘task and finish’ advisory group to consider to what extent the failings identified in Amin’s case are either unique to that Trust or more widespread across the NHS, and what learning can be applied. Comprising of multi-professional stakeholders and subject matter experts representing both the NHS and external bodies, together with an advocate for Amin’s partner, the Group conducted an independent analysis of both the Verita findings and several historical disciplinary cases, the outcomes of which had attracted criticism in Employment Tribunal proceedings and judgements. HR directors of provider organisations were advised of the Group’s activity and invited to share details of any local experiences and/or examples of measures being taken to improve the management of employment issues. The analysis highlighted several key themes associated with the Verita inquiry which were also common to other historical cases considered. Principal among these were: poor framing of concerns and allegations; inconsistency in the fair and effective application of local policies and procedures; lack of adherence to best practice guidance; variation in the quality of investigations; shortcomings in the management of conflicts of interest; insufficient consideration and support of the health and wellbeing of individuals; and an over-reliance on the immediate application of formal procedures, rather than consideration of alternative responses to concerns. This paper aims to outline where S&O’s current processes and procedures are against the 7 areas of focus set out in Baroness Harding’s guidance and the Business HR team’s commitment to further improve and strengthen our people practice in relation to the management of employee relations cases. 3. Guidance relating to the management and oversight of local investigation and disciplinary

procedures 3.1. Adhering to best practice The Trusts key disciplinary and grievance policies are in the process of being significantly reviewed to ensure that they maintain keeping in line with current best practice as advised in the Arbitration Conciliation Advisory Service (ACAS) Code of practice on disciplinary and grievance procedures. The Trusts Managing High Professional Standards policy applicable to the management of our medical workforce has also recently been reviewed.

The recommendation of Baroness Harding suggests that procedures should also follow the principles of the NMCs best practice guidance on local investigations (when published). The Business HR team in partnership with staff side will ensure review of this once published and make any amendments to our process if required. All formal employee relations cases have an assigned HR representative to advise and support the management of procedures. Through this the Business HR team ensure that independence and objectivity is applied throughout the process and action is taken to prevent any perceived conflicts of interest. This is supported by our policies and procedures and also applicable to the HR representative assigned to the differing steps of the process. Where required advisors to disciplinary and appeal panels may also be assigned as subject matters experts to ensure objectivity. All employee relations policies and procedures ‘owned’ by the Business HR team have recently been reviewed or are currently going through review and will be reviewed in accordance with the recommendations following this independent investigation. 3.2. Applying rigorous decision making Trust processes can be considered to be in line with the application of just culture principles. Policies have been drafted to ensure that preliminary investigative work is undertaken before any process progresses to a formal procedure. Within the Trusts revised disciplinary policy the usage of the NHS Incident Decision tree (Just Culture Guide) is proposed to be used on the outset of any employee relations case to guide and inform the appropriate next steps, for example when considering the suspension of an employee where a serious allegation has come to light. If following a preliminary investigation the senior manager in possession of the allegation recommends suspension, the Business HR team ensure that this is escalated to the respective Director of the Trust, Deputy Director, Assistant Director of Operations, Head of Nursing or equivalent. By adopting this practice ensures plurality and informed decisions are made on the outset. The Trust has significantly invested into their mediation service within the last 3 years and now has 27 trained mediators available throughout the Organisation. Where mediation is deemed appropriate, this is an enabler for cases to be managed at a local and informal stage of the process.

3.3. Ensuring people are trained and competent to carry out their role The appointment of investigating officers is decided in collaboration of the case manager/commissioning manager (revised policy) and the assigned HR representative. When appointing investigating officers this will be dependent on the seniority, neutrality and experience of the individual. As all employee relations cases will be assigned a HR representative, it is their role to guide, advise and coach that investigating officer as the process progresses. To support the competence of investigating officers, hearing and appeal boards, the Trust has guides and training established which are available on the Trusts intranet. The Business HR team will also review those guides and training programmes to ensure consistency with the revised policies. 3.4. Assigning sufficient resources Within the Business HR team monthly case reviews are held as a team which allows capacity and demand oversight and appropriate delegation to ensure the timeliness of investigations internal to the Business HR team. Any concerns regarding resource will be escalated to the appropriate senior member of the management team to ensure resolution. Additionally the Trust has invested in the development and resourced a bank of investigating officers to ensure that the Trust has access to independent investigating officers should resourcing be of concern.

The Business HR team have scoped out and requested as part of the HR Business Case Investment in an Employee Relations Tracker system (Empactis) which is recommended by NHSI and will automate some of the processes associated with ER cases and ensure timely responses/reminders in line with the policy timescales. The system will enable timescales in relation to cases to be reported on easily and the identification of any hotspots areas in order to ensure effective and timely interventions. A HR Business Partner – Project Lead has been appointed to lead on the roll out of the implementation of this system and will commence in post on 9th December 2019. Timescales in relation to this policy are as follows:

• Detailed Project Initial Document and Project Plan to be drafted December 2019

• ESR Data cleanse to commence December 2019 – January 2020

• Procurement and Information Governance process to commence December 2019

• Contract and Information Governance sign off by mid-January 2020

• Project to initiate February 2020

• Phase 1 will focus on Case Management and include Disciplinary, Grievance, MHPS, Dignity at Work case types.

o This phase will include ESR interfacing. o The 1st Case Type to go-live as a full workflow for manager use will be Disciplinary. o Other case types will initially be tracked using the platform i.e. not as a workflow and

so will continue to be managed by HR; workflow for the remaining case types will introduced in a staged way during 2020.

• The Trust would like to be live by 31st May 2020 with Case Management. 3.5. Decisions relating to the implementation of suspensions / exclusions When a suspension is likely, the Business HR team ensure that the decision to suspend is escalated to the Director of the Trust, Deputy Director, Assistant Director of Operations, Head of Nursing or equivalent. The revised policy will ensure that the escalation of a decision to suspend ensures preliminary investigative work has been undertaken, that decisions to suspend are informed, safe and alternatives to suspensions are considered. 3.6. Safeguarding people health and wellbeing On the outset of an employee relations case the individual is reminded of the support services available to them through the Trusts health and wellbeing service and employee assistance provider. The individual is advised that a self-referral to those services can be made or alternatively a management referral will be made on their behalf. In some circumstances a case manager/commissioning manager may automatically refer an individual to support services dependent on the nature of the allegations or individuals circumstances. Once an employee relations case has been commissioned a terms of reference will be drafted by the case manager/commissioning manager that includes timeframes for the completion of the investigatory process and also when the individual will be informed of the outcome of the process. This timeframe will be shared with the individual by the investigating officer through the course of their investigation. The case manager/commissioning manager is responsible for keeping the individual informed on the progress of the investigation and any delays to the originally anticipated timeframe of completion. 3.7. Board level oversight Going forward the board will receive data relating to employee relations cases via a dashboard presented at Workforce Committee held on a monthly basis. This group is chaired via the Director of HR and OD and the minutes and papers of that group are shared with the Board via the Corporate Governance structure. The board will also receive data relating to employee relations cases directly via the CBU Performance Review meetings chaired by the Chief Executive Officer.

Detailed discussions relating to employee relations cases are shared during the monthly one to one meetings held between the Head of HR and HR Business Partners. 4. Recommendations It is recommended that the board can take assurance that many of the recommendations set out by Baroness Harding are already in place at S&O. There are however areas that can be strengthened and the Business HR team will commit to improve those in the coming months, and will provide an assurance at regular intervals. . Actions to be taken:

• Review the contents of the NMCs ‘best practice guidance on local investigations’ when published, making any necessary amendments to process where needed.

• The team will develop a suspension pro-forma in order to record the process of escalation and informed decisions when the need to suspend arises. Whilst this can be evidenced at present this will ensure consistency and a central record of this information. Once developed a recommendation for this suspension pro-forma to be added as an appendices within the disciplinary policy to encourage its usage.

• The Business HR team to ensure evidence that a preliminary investigation has been undertaken prior to commencement of a formal process. Currently this can be difficult to evidence the separation of a preliminary and formal process.

• The Business HR team to will refresh a local training programme for investigations of employee relation cases.

• Continue to develop and review toolkits and guides to ensure they are fit for purpose.

• Add to terms of reference templates that the requirement for the commissioning manager to ensure wellbeing support is offered at regular intervals and a communication plan is established on the outset of an employee relations process.

• Develop and establish a governance framework in relation to the reporting of cases.

• Business Case funding will implement an employee relations case management system to ensure timeliness of case management. This system has shown much improvement when implemented in other Trusts.

• Investment in Employee Relations Tracker system – to automate some of the process and ensure timely responses in line with the policy timescales.

This paper is to assure the Board that an action plan is in place.

question.

✓ SO4 Develop a flexible, responsive workforce of the right size and with the right skills who feel valued and motivated

If the Trust does not attract, develop, and retain a resilient and adaptable workforce with the right capabilities and capacity there will be an impact on clinical outcomes and patient experience.

✓ SO5 Enable all staff to be patient-centred leaders building on an open and honest culture and the delivery of the Trust values

If the Trust does not have leadership at all levels patient and staff satisfaction will be impacted

SO6 Engage strategic partners to maximise the opportunities to design and deliver sustainable services for the population of Southport, Formby and West Lancashire

If the system does not have an agreed acute services strategy it may lead to non-alignment of partner organisations plans resulting in the inability to develop and deliver sustainable services

Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust Workforce Disability Equality Standard Information Report April 2019 – March 2020

1. Executive Summary This paper provides a general overview of the Workforce Disability Equality Standard (WDES) and the metrics against the nine indicators within the Workforce Disability Equality Standard (WDES). It also provides analysis of the metrics and outlines actions (Appendix 1 WDES Action Plan) to address the gaps between the experience of Disabled and Non-disabled staff.

2. Introduction The Workforce Disability Equality Standard (WDES) is mandated by the NHS Standard Contract and will apply to all NHS Trusts and Foundation Trusts from April 2019. The WDES is a data-based standard that uses a series of measures (Metrics) to improve the experiences of Disabled staff in the NHS. The WDES comprises ten Metrics. All of the Metrics draw from existing data sources (recruitment dataset, ESR, NHS Staff Survey, HR data) with the exception of one; Metric 9b asks for narrative evidence of actions taken, to be written into the WDES annual report The Metrics have been developed to capture information relating to the experience of Disabled staff in the NHS. Research has shown that Disabled staff have poorer experiences in areas such as bullying and harassment and attending work when feeling ill, when compared to non-disabled staff. The ten Metrics have been informed by research by Middlesex and Bedford Universities, conducted on behalf of NHS England, and by Disability Rights UK on behalf of NHS Employers. The annual collection of the WDES Metrics will allow NHS Trusts and Foundation Trusts to better understand and improve the employment experiences of Disabled staff in the NHS. The WDES Metrics have been designed to be as simple and straightforward as possible. The development of the WDES owes a great deal to the consultation and engagement with NHS key stakeholders, including Disabled staff, trade unions and senior leaders.

3. WDES Highlights The information below provides highlights from the WDES report for 2018-19, the information also provides the Trust figures compared to the average for combined acute and community hospital. Please note this is the first year the WDES report have been compiled so there are no comparisons available. Q/ Do you have any physical or mental health conditions, disabilities or illnesses that have lasted or are expected to last for 12 months or more? (NHS staff survey 2018) Southport Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust response is 19.8% other Trusts average is 17.1%, therefore SOHT is 2.7% above the national average response. The 2018-19 Trust ESR figures for staff highlighting they have a disability is 2.55% although19.8% of staff highlighted they have a disability in the NHS staff survey 2018. The Trust are in the process of promoting to staff the process they should follow to register having a disability on ESR, staff are also informed in a letter after supporting attendance meetings that they can record their disability on ESR or there manager can support them with updating ESR. The Trust is also looking at introducing a Reasonable Adjustment / Disability Passport for staff with a disability.

The Trust is aiming to set up a Disability staff network group which will look at why 30.48% of Trust staff have not disclosed if they do or don’t have a disability. Metric 2/ Relative likelihood of Disabled staff compared to non-disabled staff being appointed from shortlisting 432 disabled staff were shortlisted and 16 were hired this is a success rate of 3.70% compared to 2515 non-disabled staff shortlisted and 150 who were successful which is a 5.96% success rate. Metric 3/ Relative likelihood of disabled staff compared to non-disabled staff entering the formal capability process For the purposes of Year 1 WDES report, capability is defined as capability on the grounds of performance, not ill health. The figures highlight that no disabled or non-disabled staff entered the formal capability process on the grounds of performance in 2018-19. Metric 4/ Percentage of Disabled staff compared to non-disabled staff experiencing harassment, bullying or abuse from:

i/ Patients/service users, their relatives or other members of the public in the last 12 months Disabled staff = 37.3% Non-disabled 26.7% Difference = 10.6% ii/ Managers Disabled staff = 24.4% Non-disabled 11.5% Difference = 12.9% iii/ Other colleagues Disabled staff = 30.8% Non-disabled 15.9% Difference = 14.9% Metric 5,6,7/ Staff with a disability highlighted in metric 5, 6, 7 of the report a score / response that is worse than staff without a disability, the responses highlight that appropriate actions need to be complied to address the issues raised. Metric 8/ Has your employer made adequate adjustment(s) to enable you to carry out your work?(NHS staff survey) The Trust response rate is 77% other Trusts average is 72%, SOHT is 5% above the national average response.

4. Staff Profile As of March 2019 Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust employed 2986 people of which 2.55% disclosed they have a disability. Disability – Non Disabled Staff Information: 2.55% of the Workforce have disclosed that they consider themselves to have a Disability, 66.97% of staff have told us they don’t consider themselves to have a Disability with the remainder 30.48% either not declaring, preferring not to say and the others unspecified

Executive Summary

The Committee’s highlight report for August 2019 is set out below:

Alert

• To highlight the Trusts compliance to NHS England to complete the Workforce Race Equality

Standard (WRES) report and action plan, the report highlights the comparisons between BME

and white staff across a number of indicators.

Advise

• Ensure that the Trust data for the WRES has been uploaded onto NHS England site and will

be published on the Trust website and sent to the CCG as part of the equality section of the

quality contract.

• Paper has been reformatted as per action following October’s Board meeting. New formatted

report was accepted at Workforce Committee in November 2019.

• The WRES action plan will be monitored and updated. Updates will be provided to the various

Trust groups / committees and the report and updates are also a requirement of the equality

section of the quality contract with the CCG’s.

Recommendation

The Workforce Committee is asked to receive the report

Strategic Objective Principal Risk

✓ SO1 Improve clinical outcomes and patient safety to ensure we deliver high quality services

If quality is not maintained in line with regulatory standards this will impede clinical outcomes and patient safety.

SO2 Deliver services that meet NHS constitutional and regulatory standards

If the Trust cannot achieve its key performance targets it may lead to loss of services.

SO3 Efficiently and productively provide care within agreed financial limits

If the Trust cannot meet its financial regulatory standards and operate within agreed financial

resources the sustainability of services will be in question.

✓ SO4 Develop a flexible, responsive workforce of the right size and with the right skills who feel valued and motivated

If the Trust does not attract, develop, and retain a resilient and adaptable workforce with the right capabilities and capacity there will be an impact on clinical outcomes and patient experience.

✓ SO5 Enable all staff to be patient-centred leaders building on an open and honest culture and the delivery of the Trust values

If the Trust does not have leadership at all levels patient and staff satisfaction will be impacted

SO6 Engage strategic partners to maximise the opportunities to design and deliver sustainable services for the population of Southport, Formby and West Lancashire

If the system does not have an agreed acute services strategy it may lead to non-alignment of partner organisations plans resulting in the inability to develop and deliver sustainable services

Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust Workforce Race Equality Standard Information Report April 2018 – March 2019 1. Executive Summary This paper provides a general overview of the Workforce Race Equality Standard (WRES) and the Trust’s metrics against the nine indicators within the Workforce Race Equality Standard (WRES). It also provides analysis of the metrics and outlines actions (Appendix 1 WRES Action Plan) to address the gaps between the experience of BME and White staff. 2. Introduction The NHS Equality and Diversity Council agreed in July 2014 that action across the NHS needs to be taken to ensure employees from black and ethnic minority (BME) backgrounds have equal access to career opportunities and receive fair treatment in the workplace. The move follows recent reports which have highlighted disparities in the number of BME people in senior leadership positions across the NHS, as well as lower levels of wellbeing amongst the BME population. Following a period of consultation, the NHS Equality and Diversity Council agreed two measures that compliment each other whilst being distinct to improve equality across the NHS and these would be mandatory requirements embedded within the NHS Contract from April 2015. 1. The Workforce Race Equality Standard (WRES) 2. NHS Equality Delivery System 2 (EDS2) There are nine metrics. Four of the metrics are specifically on workforce data and four of the metrics are based on data derived from the national NHS Staff Survey indicators. The latter will highlight any differences between the experience and treatment of White staff and BME staff in the NHS, with a view to closing the gaps highlighted by those metrics. The final metric requires provider organisations to ensure that their Boards are broadly representative of the communities they serve. The CQC will take this into account within the ‘Well Led’ domain. 3. Drivers for WRES implementation The research Snowy White Peaks by Roger Kline (2013) showed:

• Unfair treatment of BME staff adversely affects the care and treatment of patients

• Talent is being wasted through unfairness in the appointment, treatment and development of a large section of the NHS workforce

• Precious staff resources are being wasted through the impact of such treatment on morale and discretionary effort

• Diverse teams and leaderships are more likely to show the innovation and increased organisational effectiveness the NHS needs.

• Organisations whose leadership composition bears little relationship to the communities they serve will be less likely to deliver the patient focussed care that is needed

• Nationally there has been a decrease in the proportion of BME Board members, Senior Managers and Nurse Managers in recent years; there are less BME Leaders and Managers in 2013 than in 2003 (Kline 2015).

• Statistically White staff are 1.74 times more likely to be appointed once shortlisted than BME staff (Kline, 2013);

• BME staff are twice as likely to enter formal disciplinary processes and be disciplined for similar offences than white staff (Archibong et al, 2010);

• Black nurses take 50% longer to be promoted and are less likely to access national training programmes (NHSLA);

• BME staff experiences correlate to the staff survey results on bullying, career progression, promotion and discrimination.

• 2014 Francis found BME Whistle-blowers are treated less favourably than white whistle-

WRES Highlights: The information below provides a comparison for the WRES reports for 2017-18 and 2018-19, the information also provides the Trust figures compared to the average for combined acute and community hospital. BME staff in clinical and non–clinical bands 8a-9 Non Clinical: The 2018-19 WRES report highlights that there has been no increase in non-clinical BME staff in bands 8b to 9 and there are no BME staff in band 8b 8c 9 these figures are the same in the 2017-18 WRES report. Clinical: The WRES report highlights that there has been no increase in clinical BME staff in bands 8b – 8d and there are no BME staff in band 8b, 8c. 8d these figures are the same in the 2017-18 WRES report.
