ICS Delivery Forum 2023 – Leeds
Patient Safety Learning posted an event in Community Calendar
untilPublic Policy Project's second phase of its integrated care policy programme will centre around the ICS Delivery Forum. The Delivery Forum will build on the foundations of the ICS Roadshow, continuing to connect key health and care stakeholders at a localised debate and networking. However, the Delivery Forum will focus on developing impact-driven, results-orientated insights. Working in close collaboration with ICSs and crucial providers, PPP is creating a programme that highlights exactly how ICSs are making place based, personalised care a reality and the impact this is having on individual citizens and communities. Rather than discuss issues such as health inequalities in broad framing and terminology, the Delivery Forum will ask local systems leaders and stakeholders to demonstrate exactly how integrated care systems can affect change in key health and care challenges. The Delivery Forum will also provide a helping hand to ICBs grappling with workforce challenges and service pressures by connecting system leaders with on the ground innovators and industry experts. Audiences will consist of local ICS leaders and representatives from the NHS, social care, primary care and local government, as well as community workers and social prescribing specialists. Further, the ICS Delivery Forum will engage with patients and end-users to gather first-hand experience of receiving care within a system in dire need of reform. This event is free for the Public Sector– including, NHS Organisations, Local Authorities, academics, researchers, non-for-profit and third sector providers and charitable sectors. Register -

Systems partnerships and the Hewitt Report
Patient Safety Learning posted an event in Community Calendar
untilThe focus of GGI’s April health and care leaders webinar is systems partnerships and the Hewitt report, in conversation with Rt Hon Patricia Hewitt, a former Secretary of State for Health and now a Chair of an ICB. The Hewitt Report on systems partnerships and governance will really frame how boards will lead during this next crucial year for the NHS. With an election next year, all NHS board members will be navigating their way through financial and performance pressures of the likes never seen before. How the new ICBs behave will impact every single NHS board. In a ‘Chatham House Rule’ session this will be a valuable chance to understand the forces at play and what individual NHS directors need to understand in terms of context and direction. The webinar will be chaired by GGI Chief Executive Professor Andrew Corbett-Nolan. Register -

EventuntilThis webinar shares the findings of a co-production project in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board (ICB) to remove barriers to shared decision making. The partners in the project were the ICB’s Personalised Care Team, the My Life Choices lived experience panel, the Patient Information Forum (PIF), and us, the Patients Association. The project was one we highlighted during Patient Partnership Week last year; you can learn more about it before attending this webinar by watching the recording of the Partnering with patients and communities - what's happening in ICSs session. Over the course of six co-production meetings, we developed simple resources to support patients and professionals to have better shared decision making conversations. This webinar shares the findings of the project. Speakers will discuss practical solutions to help patients and professionals get the most from limited appointment times which can be applied nationally. Register

EventuntilCommunities are playing an increasingly important role in improving health and meeting the wellbeing needs of people locally, highlighted in part by their role in the response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Integrated care systems (ICSs) need to recognise the role communities can play in improving and sustaining good health, and as part of this they need to seek greater involvement with local voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) groups at the place and neighbourhood level, where the link local communities is at its strongest. This conference will provide an opportunity to discuss the impact of community-led and person-centred approaches to improving health and wellbeing, and to explore what more can be done to build on community interventions, assets and solutions that developed as a response to the pandemic. It will also consider the challenges of demonstrating value and of working with communities to assess need and provide services. You will hear from community groups who have worked with others – including their ICS, local health system or local authority – to develop a collaborative approach to tackling health inequalities.

EventuntilJoin us to learn how welfare rights advice services are being integrated with healthcare nationwide to tackle poverty and health inequality. This event will be of interest to people working in Integrated Care Systems and public health policy and practice. Taking action on poverty and health inequality is ever more important for the NHS, as the current cost of living crisis increases hardship among communities. The consequences for health and wellbeing will be felt most keenly among low income and vulnerable patient groups. Health justice partnerships are targeted interventions that support patients with social and economic circumstances that are root causes of health inequality. They are partnerships between health services and organisations specialising in welfare rights. Advice on welfare rights issues is integrated with patient care, helping people resolve problems relating to benefits, debt, housing, employment and immigration, among others. This can support those in the hardest circumstances to maximise their health and wellbeing. This one-day in-person workshop is an opportunity to learn about health justice partnerships and how they are being implemented across the country in a range of NHS settings. We will be joined by speakers who are engaged in service delivery, policy and research, who will provide examples and insights from their work. Speakers will include: Professor Dame Hazel Genn, Director of the Centre for Access to Justice, UCL Cedi Frederick, Chair of the NHS Kent and Medway Integrated Care Board Natalie Davis, Head of Legal Support Policy, Ministry of Justice Catherine McClennan, Director of the Women’s Health and Maternity Programme, Cheshire and Merseyside Health & Care Partnership Paul Sweeting, Insight and Performance Partner, Macmillan Cancer Support Refreshments are provided and there will be opportunities for discussion and networking.

EventuntilThe Covid-19 pandemic has laid bare deep-seated health inequalities and the issue is now at the forefront of the minds of people across the health and care system, as they seek to develop strategies aimed at reducing health inequalities at a regional, integrated care system (ICS) and place level. This conference will bring together individuals and teams developing health inequalities strategies. We will discuss the need for universal action at a population health level and targeted action to address issues affecting people facing the worst health outcomes, showing how these two approaches interlink. The conference will also explore opportunities across health and care to tackle health inequalities and learn from local and international leaders about how they are overcoming the challenges of turning evidence into action to make a difference to health inequalities.

EventThe Convenzis Integrated Care Summit provides a secure and high-value platform for NHS Managers and leaders to meet, share practical insights, and listen to some of the sector's most reputable and thought-provoking experts. In support of the NHS, registration is complimentary and CPD accredited. NHS England explains that ICSs are partnerships of health and care organisations that come together to plan and deliver joined-up services, and to improve the health, of people who live and work in their area. Integrated care is about giving people the support they need, joining up across local councils, the NHS, and other partners. It removes traditional divisions between hospitals and family doctors, between physical and mental health, and between NHS and council services. ICSs (integrated care systems) are seen by NHS leaders as the future of health and care integration in England. The NHS Long Term Plan, and now the Government’s white paper on health and care reform, both place ICSs at the heart of the NHS. This upcoming event will provide NHS healthcare leaders from across primary, social and secondary care sectors with a secure and high-value platform to discuss the key challenges and benefits of the integrated care strategy. This event will showcase some examples of best practices from teams across the NHS and provide you with a platform to meet and engage with 5 commercial sectors thought leaders as they share innovative services and solutions with delegates across the day.

EventuntilPopulation health is an increasingly clear and important priority for the health and care system and is key in addressing health inequalities. This is clear in the NHS Long Term Plan, in the 2022 Health and Care Act, and in the current and likely future policy landscape. A population health-led approach to health and care aims to improve physical and mental health outcomes, promote wellbeing and reduce health inequalities across an entire population. Whether you’re working in an integrated care system (ICS), primary care network, a national body, community group, or you’re someone with lived experience it is likely that you have been thinking about your own role in population health and how best you can help to improve the health and care of the people in your local area. This event from the King's Fund will bring together those working in the NHS, public health, local authorities, the voluntary, community and social enterprise sector, and local communities to consider how best they can join the dots between work that is already under way and how to support others in their efforts to improve population health.

EventuntilThe health and care sector is undergoing fundamental change and facing profound challenges. As it continues to deal with the impact of Covid-19, which has exacerbated the workforce crisis and health inequalities, the Health and Care Act introduces changes to how health and care services are organised and delivered with the aim of integrating care for people in England. The King’s Fund annual conference 2022 will bring together leaders from across the health and care system. Through keynote speeches, panel debates and interactive workshops, you can join peers to explore the impact of current reforms on service delivery and share experiences of the reality of working on the ground in this complex and challenging system. The agenda provides a key opportunity to hear from influential speakers about an inclusive approach to recovery and the impact of integrated care systems (ICSs) in the six months since they have become statutory bodies. Amanda Pritchard, Chief Executive Officer at NHS England recently setting out her reflections on the wider challenges and opportunities for the NHS around the theme of the four Rs: recovery, reform, resilience and respect. The agenda provides a key opportunity to hear from influential speakers about what this approach means in reality, what capacity and resource a system which has been under severe strain has to meet these challenges, how we can practically work to ensure an inclusive approach.

EventuntilBreaking down the barriers between organisations is key to the successful development of integrated care systems (ICSs), and the underpinning digital transformation that their introduction demands. Digital transformation can become the foundation of partnership working across health, social care, local government, and wider partners – including those in the voluntary, community and social enterprise, and private sectors – as place-based approaches to delivering care develop. This session from The King's Fund will explore what is being done to create collaborative digital strategies at ICS level that enable practical and flexible ways of working between partners. It will discuss how best to harness and use the data the system already holds, and how partnerships can move beyond barriers around data sharing, co-ordination and workforce capacity. Register

EventuntilEntrenched health inequalities have come to the fore over the past couple of years and we have seen some of the sharpest declines in health and wellbeing for our children, young people and their families. Never has there been a more urgent need to address the link between wider social, economic and environmental causes to the increased risk of poor public health and mental health. These are best understood and addressed at a local level by people and organisations that have relationships and knowledge of the nuances and cultures of individuals and communities. The formation of Integrated Care Systems (ICSs) represents a significant opportunity for Boards to engage the voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector in order to enable a truly integrated Health and Social Care System to be delivered. These new arrangements which will bring together local system partners should serve to strengthen relationships between the NHS and VCSE sector and promote greater equity. This free webinar, co-produced and sponsored by Barnardo’s, brings together an esteemed panel of experts to discuss how we make the most of these opportunities at this critical time, as well as showcasing innovative VCSE projects that are delivering improved outcomes for children, young people and their families.

Better use of data for medication safety in hospitals
Kenny Fraser posted a topic in Medicine management
- (and 46 more)
NHS hospital staff spend countless hours capturing data in electronic prescribing and medicines administration systems. Yet that data remains difficult to access and use to support patient care. This is a tremendous opportunity to improve patient safety, drive efficiencies and save time for frontline staff. I have just published a post about this challenge and Triscribe's solution. I would love to hear any comments or feedback on the topic... How could we use this information better? What are hospitals already doing? Where are the gaps? Thanks- Posted

Content ArticleThe State of Integrated Care Systems 2022/23 examines the progress that local systems have made, and opportunities for further development. The NHS Confederation’s ICS network collected the views of 47 integrated care board chairs and chief executives, and integrated care partnership chairs, in the spring, as well as holding roundtables. The results found they are generally positive about relationships – with 88% agreeing that “partners within my ICS are working collaboratively”. However, when asked about whether a range of organisations in their area “have the requisite level of resourcing and maturity to deliver the ambitions outlined in your integrated care strategy”, there were signs of concerns about primary care networks, provider collaboratives and place-based partnerships, all of which saw less than 50% of leaders agree.

Content ArticleThis briefing was commissioned by the Maternal Mental Health Alliance who are dedicated to ensuring all women, babies and their families across the UK have access to compassionate care and high-quality support for their mental health during pregnancy and after birth. One woman in five experiences a mental health problem during pregnancy or after they have given birth. Maternal mental health problems can have a devastating impact on the women affected and their families. NICE guidance states that perinatal mental health problems always require a speedy and effective response, including rapid access to psychological therapies when they are needed. Integrated care systems (ICSs) have a unique opportunity to ensure that all women who need support for their mental health during the perinatal period get the right level of help at the right time, close to home.

Content ArticleHealth and care services in England are not always able to provide individualised, equitable and coordinated palliative and end of life care (PEoLC) to meet the holistic needs of people and their families. To understand the impact of inconsistent palliative care, the Healthcare Safety Investigation Branch (HSIB) looked at the case of Dermot, a 77-year-old cancer patient. Dermot's case shows the gap between what is needed and what is available. HSIB make three safety recommendations to NHS England aimed at improving the delivery of palliative and end of life care.
