King's Fund: Ensuring virtual wards are a positive option for the future
EventVirtual wards have the potential to improve patient experience by enabling them to receive care at home, and to alleviate workforce pressures by freeing up staff time. However, there is still a lot of work to be done to improve capacity and use of virtual wards if patients and staff are to feel the benefits. Additionally, there are still extensive variations progress and use of virtual wards - operationally, digitally and financially - across the NHS and integrated care systems (ICS). With central funding coming to an end, all parts of the health and care system face practical challenges in making virtual wards a positive option for the future. Against this backdrop, this panel discussion will bring together experts to discuss: how to build a model for sustainable virtual wards that meets the immediate challenges of the health and care system, but also aligns with the NHS vision and aspirations for the future what patients and communities want from virtual wards and how their voices can shape future services what opportunities there are for virtual services to enable better integration between partners across the health and care system, as well as providing better working options and flexibility for staff.

Population health: an opportunity to transform health and care
EventThe health and care system are in crisis with staff trying to address backlogs of care and the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic, amid workforce shortages, financial constraints and a wider cost-of-living crisis. But how can the system move away from this new normal to a new way of working? Population health approaches offer the opportunity to move from a reactive system that treats patients when they are ill to one that proactively addresses the impact of wider social determinants on people’s heath and tackles the effects of health inequalities. Now is the time to start thinking differently about the health and care system. At this King's Fund event you will hear from local experts and international speakers about how the health and care system can begin to make this shift. It will discuss why population health offers a way to not only tackle health inequalities and improve the health of individuals and communities but can also provide solutions for a system under constant stress. New ideas will be discussed that are inspiring professionals across the sector and explore practical examples of how to address the inequalities social determinants create using a population health lens. Sharing of good-practice examples of how population health works within integrated care systems, how communities come together to promote better health outcomes for residents, and how leaders make a difference from local to national level to solve many of the problems facing the health and care system through the population health model.

Safety for All - Employee investigations webinar
Event
until
Employee investigations refers to the investigation of allegations made by and against staff. Aneurin Bevan University Health Board (ABUHB) is responsible for the planning, delivery, and commissioning of NHS Wales services for a population of over 660,000 citizens. It employs over 15,000 staff. ABUHB started a programme of work to improve its employee investigations because its HR team identified that during a 15-month period, over 50% of investigations had led to no sanctions for individuals who had been taken through them. Their Employee Wellbeing Service had been concerned about the number of clients who had experienced significant stress and trauma as a result of going through the employee investigation process. The focus of the intervention was to reduce ‘avoidable employee harm’ by reducing the number of employees subjected to investigations, and to reduce the duration of investigations that take place. Andrew Cooper and Liz Rogers from ABUHB will present the case study and report back on the intervention outcomes, key learning points and progress made to date. The webinar will last one hour with time for questions to the presenters. Register -

Deprivation of liberty safeguards: Moving forward
EventThe Department of Health and Social Care announced on the 5th April 2023 that the implementation of the Liberty Protection Safeguards will be delayed until at least the next general election (anticipated to be in Autumn 2024). With the delay to the Liberty Protection Safeguards it is more important than ever to ensure the existing scheme of Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) works, that providers understand the application of Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards and interaction with the Mental Capacity Act. It has been widely recognised that there are number of challenges associated with the current DoLS system, particularly in light of the increases in the number of DoLS applications – which have been seen across England and Wales. In light of the UK Government decision, we will need to consider how we strengthen the current DoLS system in order to continue to protect and promote the human rights of those people who lack mental capacity.
