Theatre Utilisation% Utilisation of funded theatre sessions. DoS AMBER = AMBER GREEN

Overall theatre performance remains constant but revised action plan should

improve performance

Theatre Utilisation: Theatre Utilisation for PRH in October is 81% and RSH 75% which is a 2% increase at

PRH and a reduction of 4% at RSH compared to the previous month. The key reasons for under utilisation resulting in lost activity at RSH are: - Fixed emergency/trauma sessions 5% - Closed sessions 8% - Unused Theatre time 12% - Total RSH under-utilisation 25%

- RSH lost a total of 100 theatre sessions in October.

Performance Management: Data is available for each Centre split by speciality. Speciality data can be split by Consultant. Percentage data can be converted into number of theatre sessions lost. Data can be broken down into cancelled operations and the reasons why. Data can be broken down into late starts and the reasons why. Data is available for unfunded sessions, majority funded by WLT.

Actions: • Report findings to Clinical Leads and Divisional General Managers. A fortnightly meeting has now commenced and following actions have been agreed:- Start times for theatre sessions.- The removal of fixed emergency trauma sessions from theatre utilisation.- Continue with implementation of Theatre Briefing and roll out pilot in December as part of Productive Theatre.- Paper for Management Executive in January regarding Productive Theatre.

Elective Surgical Pre Operative Length of Stay (LOS)

Reduce total number of surgical pre-operative bed days per month DoS GREEN = GREEN GREEN

Decrease of 28 bed days at PRH and a decrease of 20 bed days at RSH

• The number of elective surgical pre operative bed days decreased at PRH by 28 from September and decreased by 20 at RSH.

• The median number of pre operative bed days per month over the last 12 months at PRH is 105 and 129 at RSH.

• The Surgical Admission Suite (SAS) at RSH is currently open 4 days a week. 124 patients were admitted via the SAS in October 2010 (the highest to date). Capital work to expand the SAS & pre-operative assessment area commences 15 th November with a planned completion date 17 th December 2010. This will enable more elective surgical patients at RSH to be admitted on the day of surgery.

Actions:• Increase the number of patients being admitted via the Surgical Admission Suite.• Provision of monthly Elective Surgical Pre-operative Length of Stay information for clinical and managerial staff.• Increase day of surgery admission for elective Orthopaedic inpatients at PRH.

Foundation Trust StatusTo achieve NHS Foundation Trust status in 2011 DoS RED = RED AMBER

Details for organisational transition continue to emerge in November. A revised trajectory for the

Trust’s FT application must be agreed with the SHA and informed to the DH during November 2010

Monitor Compliance Framework

Foundation Trust steering groups

Current PositionThe current assessment of performance against Monitor’s Compliance framework shows:• a financial risk rating remains of 2 (RED)• a governance risk rating which has moved to 3 (RED) during Q2.

Maintaining essential standards of safety and quality through the appropriate governance mechanisms is the primary focus of the Board at this time.

Establishing our NHS Foundation Trust (FT) trajectoryThe Trust will shortly be assessed by the SHA Regional Director of Provider Development on our ‘state of readiness’, where assurances are expected by the Department of Health that the organisation has a robust plan to achieve FT within the expected timescale. The assessment; an evidence based preparatory phase, will assure the DH of our fitness for purpose and will inform the SHA’s view in support of our FT application. This process, consisting of a Quality Review, and assessment of the capacity and capability of Board, will be undertaken between January and March 2011.
