Excellent care in Partnership
A summary of the drivers of demand and our
out of area bed utilisation
Out of area bed usage
2013/14 we experienced unprecedented bed pressures.
Our analysis highlights:• Volatility in out of area bed use • For 14/15 (YA) East Kent over
utilised its commissioned bed base by 8,561 bed days, west Kent by 1,447 and north Kent underutilised its commissioned bed capacity by (1,451)
• We used 8,839 less bed days than in 13/14.
Actions to reduce demand 2014/15Street Triage
Pilot of a MH Nurse and Police Officer, 7 days from
20:00 – 04:00. Provide tactical advice around s136
• S136 – 22% reduction• Improved assessment times • Improved relationships• Improved experience
Developed local approaches to managing demand, from point
of entry into services and transfer to primary care
• 2% reduction in referrals not accepted into secondary care
• 4% improvement in number of referrals assessed within 28 days
Caseload Management
Urgent MH assessment to service users with mental health problems in
A&E / hospital to support better management, avoid admission or
reduce length of stay
• Decrease admissions - 91.7%• Reduce length of stay - 1745 days• Decrease CRHT presentations -
82.9%• Decline s136 presentations - 79.6%
PD Therapeutic House
5 day a week therapeutic group programme, with fast
track access to the personality disorder main outreach group
• Improved 2 hour assessment - average 80%
• Improved relationships• Opportunities to educate Acute staff • Proactive contribution to Acute targets
Liaison psychiatry
GP Training and Education
Developed GP training programmes including:
Dementia - on-line training module Medway – monthly educational
programme for GPs
• Good attendance at workshops demonstrating interest and engagement
• Improved relationships between secondary and primary care
Care Home Support
MDT working to prevent unplanned hospital admissions or
transfers to other care homes, due to challenging behaviour
• No admissions due to behaviour related to dementia
• Non-pharmacological approaches implemented prior to medication for 100% of cases
• Reduced input required • Improved understanding of residents
and ability to manage behaviour
We continue to experience significant pressures on our services
Delayed transfers of care – 2,603 bed days lost for younger adults in the past 12 months, 3,049 bed days lost for older adults in the past 12 months.
• Daily monitoring • CCG/KCC weekly reviews • Active management to ensure patient
receives care in most appropriate place
Crisis teams are under pressure to deliver in a timely manner
• Single Point of Access to go live • Improved working with police and SECAmb• Enhanced liaison service in A&E
CQC identified that we are trying to do too much with too little
• Working with Commissioners to look at • what capacity is needed • what alternatives can we put in place
to avoid admission
Questions?
Open DialogueJane Hetherington
Senior Psychological Practitioner
Origins of Open Dialogue
Initiated in Finnish Western Lapland since early 1980’s
Need-adapted approach – Yrjö Alanen
Integrating systemic family therapy and psychodynamic psychotherapy
a different approach
The patient’s family, friends and social network are seen as "competent or potentially competent partners in the recovery process [from day one]" (Seikkula & Arnkil 2006)
About empowering, not replacing social networks
Every crisis is an opportunity to rebuild fragmented social networks (friends & family, even neighbours), to step up to the plate
Staff receive rigorous training in social network engagement
And the same staff group maintains consistency of care throughout the patient journey
This, therefore, becomes the primary intervention itself (not an afterthought, as in most MH systems)
Immediate Help
• First meeting in 24 hours• Crisis service for 24 hours• All participate from the outset• Psychotic stories are discussed in open dialogue with
everyone present• The patient reaches something of the ”not-yet-said”
Social Network Perspective
• Those who define the problem should be included into the treatment process
• A joint discussion and decision on who knows about the problem, who could help and who should be invited into the treatment meeting
• Family, relatives, friends, fellow workers and other authorities.
Flexibility and Mobility
• The response is need-adapted to fit the special and changing needs of every patient and their social network
• The place for the meeting is jointly decided• From institutions to homes, to working places, to
schools, to polyclinics etc.
Responsibility
• The one who is first contacted is responsible for arranging the first meeting
• The team takes charge of the whole process regardless of the place of the treatment
• All issues are openly discussed between the doctor in charge and the team
Psychological Continuity
• An integrated team, including both outpatient and inpatient staff, is formed
• The meetings as often as needed• The meetings for as long period as needed• The same team both in the hospital and in the
outpatient setting• In the next crisis the core of the same team• Not to refer to another place
Tolerance of Uncertainty
• To build up a scene for a safe enough process • To promote the psychological resources of the
patient and those nearest him/her• To avoid premature decisions and treatment
plans • To define open
Open Dialogue… a different approach
•Dialogism; promoting dialogue is primary and, indeed, the focus of treatment. “the dialogical conversation is seen as a forum where families and patients have the opportunity to increase their sense of agency in their own lives.”
•This represents a fundamental culture change in the way we talk to and about patients. All staff are trained in a range of psychological skills, with elements of social network, systemic and family therapy at its core
Use of the approach in Finland has shown comparatively impressive results and rates of recovery, including improvement to social inclusion and reduction in
hospitalisation
78% first episode psychosis return to work/study 19% relapsed within
5 years
(Reference: Seikkula et al. 2006)
National Audit of Schizophrenia 2014
• 90% of people were not working• 34% involved in some form of daytime activity• 19% were offered family intervention (trusts
report)• 12% had received/were receiving family
intervention• 50% carers > 30 hours/week support (average 59
hours)

Single Point of Access
Portia Sharpin
Why do we need a single point of access?Where have we got to?Where do we want to get to?What are we going to get right?Questions
The next 15 minutes
The best crisis is one that never happens
5 things you need to know
Why do we need a single point of access
When I need urgent help, I know who to contact at any time
I get support and treatment from people
who have the right skills
…and most importantly, it’s what our service users and carers tell us they need to
help them get well and stay well
It is a must do:•Required in the Crisis Care Concordat •Requested by commissioners
It feels right:•Referrers and people needing help don’t know where to find it•Making a judgement about the right support needs clinical input
What have we done so far?
What will your single point of access look like?
• 24/7 telephone line in place since November – non-qualified staff route calls
• We intend to improve this so that it is staffed by clinical staff –
• Ready to treat – tele-triage and clinical judgement about the ‘next steps’
• Onward coordination of care – effective signpost or onward appointment booking (routine or urgent)
What is 24/7 tele-triage?
How do we make our staff “ready to treat” at the point of first contact? What will we be able to provide that is different? How will this transform the experience for patients?
Phased launches early 2016
What will our Single Point of Access look like?
What will it mean for staff?
Consideration of triage tools, technology, customer care
Change to working hours
Dependant on staff model and promoting the option for other service lines to move to extended hours
Staff Consultation Further SPoA engagement events, SPA to be implemented late 2016
Workforce options Different models to consider – local v’s centralised, dedicated v’s rotational or hybrid staffing options
Training and development
Review of feedback
At the staff workshops in June, staff feedback that the chosen model must: •Provide access to help in a timely way to achieve the right outcome•Support delivery of consistent and safe services
Staff also took part in a number of discussions about the options and staffing arrangements
What we know we need to get right

Peer Support
“If she can do it, so can I”Service user feedback from INSPIRE
What is Peer Support?....
It is a therapeutic relationship that is an equal one with mutual respect and empowerment between
people that have lived experience of mental health illness not based on the traditional model of ‘helper’
and ‘helpee’.The approach is simple; the sharing of
understanding, empathy, transparency and hope informed through lived experience. Working
collaboratively with others to make positive changes for a happier healthier future.
8 core principles of Peer Support1. Mutual2. Reciprocal3. Non-directive4. Recovery Focused5. Strengths Based6. Inclusive7. Progressive8. Safe
How many and where?....

Care Planning
Guy PowellNick Dent
Appreciative enquiry based on 2 important principles:
1) those involved in operating and participating in a given system are best placed to determine how that system can be improved;
2) whatever is the focus of an investigation tends to increase, both in terms of significance and commonality.

4-D Cycle
Focussing on 3 areas of care planning national patient survey
results indicate we need to improve
• Ensuring peoples views are taken into account when planning their care
• Including the goals that the service user would identify for themselves in care plans
• Ensuring service users are ‘given enough time to consider their condition and treatment’
Recommendations and Actions
The Approach
Strength based approachHolisticGoal setting
Training
• Principles already imbedded within online training/ basic training (training DVD)
• 1 day training (mandatory for some)• Service user involvement• Start October 2015• Post graduate training (student)
Process
• Care planning competency test at interview
• Care planning champions• Peer audit• CPA review checklist and leaflet • Care plans specific to memory clinic• Ensuring that care plans within letters are
recognised as care plans (Psychiatrists)
Systems
• Revising RiO care plan (following feedback event)
• Considering use of carbonated paper/ digital technology
• Patient Portal
