Director of Clinical services

● Improve Emergency/acute services/care pathways in conjunction with partners, including:

Emergency Medicine, Therapies and Ambulatory

The Trust is participating in a number of groups concerned with developing and delivering initiatives to provide care closer to home (Urgent Care Taskforce, North Oxon Integrated Urgent Care, Whole System Pilot for the Hospital at Home in the North, ACE [Appropriate/Acceptable Care for Everyone] Programme Board).

The Children’s Emergency pathway is being developed to support ambulatory care.

- Working with Community Health Oxfordshire (CHO) to achieve greater vertical integration of community services

The Clinical Director for Emergency Medicine and Therapies is a member of the ACE Programme Board whose work streams include redefining the role and function of Oxford Health’s Community Hospitals with which the Trust is

working more closely. The ACE programme has launched a consultation on the integration of health and social care service into Localities.

- Developing interface medical services (such as the Emergency Multidisciplinary Unit) that reduce readmissions, reduce acute length of stay and provide support to primary care teams in management of appropriate patients outside acute hospitals

The Trust is engaging with the Oxfordshire GP Consortium Localities and is participating in the Long Term Conditions and Self Care Group.

The Abingdon Emergency Multidisciplinary Unit (EMU) continues to contribute to reduced emergency admissions to the John Radcliffe.

Neurosciences, Trauma & Specialist Surgery

Oxford University Hospitals became a designated Major Trauma centre on 2nd April 2012, beginning a phased resource implementation to ensure the Trauma unit is up to full capacity by October 2012. There are still discussions on-going with some peripheral PCTs regarding funding, but these are not of a material nature.

● Vascular – implement business case to become a centre for Vascular Surgery (subject to outcome of public consultation)

Cardiac, Vascular & Thoracic

As of 31st March 2012 Phase 1 of the Regional Vascular Surgery Development has been delivered. There are outstanding issues that have been escalated to the Cardiovascular Network Chief Executive for resolution as far as possible these include:

Commissioning between East Bucks and the OUH for vascular surgery for 2012/ 13. Repatriation of patients to Heatherwood and Wexham Park Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust following treatment at the OUH will incur additional costs on tariff for commissioners. This issue is being debated with a view to finding a

resolution such as that reflected in the ‘stroke package’.

Responsible Division/Director

Update

● Pathology – ensure the Trust has a robust plan in response to the Carter review of pathology services

Critical Care, Theatres, Diagnostics & Pharmacy

The strategy/service model for Pathology/Laboratories is being defined under the guidance of Derek Roskell and Runjan Chetty.

2b Achieve consolidation of the Trust’s catchment population

involvement in all Clinical Networks

Medical Director that involves all the acute hospital trusts in Thames Valley and beyond. There have been visits to trusts at Cheltenham & Gloucester, Swindon, Reading, Milton Keynes, Warwick High Wycombe & Stoke Mandeville. Others are planned for Northampton and Wexham Park. Visits have been well received without exception. The visits have led to further exploration of partnership opportunities with each trust, depending on their individual needs and concerns. These partnerships can form the basis for the creation of an integrated clinical network that seeks to characterise illnesses within its population, to standardise treatment strategies and to reduce variations in outcomes.

The philosophy underlying the clinical network has been to support as much specialist treatment as possible locally, such as in radiotherapy and paediatric surgery. The process of repatriation of referrals from London is gaining momentum and will require careful capacity management to secure it. The Trust has also demonstrated its commitment to providing specialist services by assuring necessary investment for the establishment and expansion of crucial network services such as Vascular Surgery and Intervention, Trauma and Neonatal ICU.

Oxford University Hospitals TB2012.67

● Increase and improve methods for capturing and analysing feedback from patients and carers on the care they receive

Chief Nurse Discussion about methodologies identified the need for technical input into producing a specific briefing on the way forward. Subsequently a local CQUIN has now been agreed for 2012/2013 to take forward a project to implement electronic patient feedback. In addition a review of the Hospaedia bed side system was held on 19 January to explore the potential of using the system for capturing patient feedback. The commercial implications for this piece of work continue to be explored.

● Develop a plan to establish a system working with all partners across Oxfordshire and the Thames Valley

Medical Director and Director of Planning and Information

The clinical network discussions with potential partners have always included discussions relating to research and learning networks and can form the basis to create an AHSN with a population of around 5 million. The Trust has visited other trusts, such as Basingstoke, Worcester and Bedford, where it traditionally has had few clinical ties and discussed the wider concept of a research and learning partnership.

The Trust is forming a ‘partnership’ with Oxford Health and Oxfordshire County Council to provide more vertical integration of care in the hospital and in the community. The Trust is also exploring novel learning strategies that can be applied to a larger learning network. The Trust has also opened discussions with Thames Valley Health Innovation and Education Cluster (HIEC) to facilitate the anticipated recommendations of the AHSN Sunset Review.

The Trust is now waiting for the details of the final AHSN announcement before honing its strategy and proposal. Current discussions with acute hospital providers have revealed an acknowledgement by them of the central role of OUHT in any AHSN.

● Deliver a stakeholder strategy Director of Planning and
