UNCONFIRMED

Quality Governance clarified that this had arisen as a result of a change in process and that all employees were provided with a personal alarm at the start of their shift.

TB 124/17 CHIEF EXECUTIVE REPORT The Chief Finance Officer presented the report on behalf of the Chief Executive and provided the Board with updated on the commencement of the CQC annual provider review process including the self-assessment which the Board had met separately to agree.
A mental health risk summit had been recently held with NHS Improvement, NHS England and STP leaders. The Board noted the constructive outcome and the potential investment in mental health liaison services earlier than originally expected.
A Regulation 28 notice had been received by the Trust relating to a historical case. The Trust was preparing a response to the coroner.
The Board’s attention was drawn to the proposal setting out refreshed governance arrangements for the Lancashire & South Cumbria Sustainability and Transformation Partnership (STP). This was duly noted by the Board.
The Chief Operating Officer provided an update on the work with the BIRCH Foundation to review the Trusts progress in relation to out of area placements. The Board noted that following an initial review, there were no additional improvements that could be added to the work the Trust was already undertaking. It had been agreed that BIRCH Foundation would carry out some work with the community mental health teams to review patient referrals into inpatient units and would provide the Trust with a diagnostic to see whether any efficiencies could be made.
A question was raised by a Non-Executive Director in relation to the number of serious pressure ulcers reported. The Associate Director of Safety & Quality Governance confirmed that whilst there were no themes each case was undergoing a Serious Incident Review. The Board noted the recent introduction of the monthly Serious Incident Review Panel and the involvement of commissioners on the panel. The outcome of the Serious Incident Reviews would be reported to the panel.
A discussion was held in relation to the activity around HMP Liverpool and the timescales of the review being undertaken.
The Board noted the increase in concerns raised via the ‘Dear David’ process around staffing levels. Whilst the changes in services, increased acuity and availability of staff attributed to this issue, the Board welcomed sight of the work the Director of Nursing was undertaking to address this. ACTION
Max Marshall joined the meeting
TB 125/17 AUDIT COMMITTEE CHAIR’S REPORT The Chair of the Audit Committee introduced her chairs report and explained that the Value of Money report had been deferred to allow consideration by the Finance & Performance Committee. The Committee reflected on the 2016/17
6 of 198
year-end process and areas for potential improvement. This included earlier sight of the Annual Report and Annual Governance Statement.
The Board noted the Committees oversight prior to the introduction of the new General Data Protection Regulations. A development session on the new regulation was scheduled onto the Board forward plan in November.
The Chair of the Audit Committee confirmed that the next phase in terms of enquiry into the risk management framework and its effectiveness would be undertaken through health-checks and would also cover a review of corporate governance arrangements across the Trust.
The Board noted the content of the Audit Committee Chair’s Report.
TB 126/17 FINANCE AND PERFORMANCE CHAIR’S REPORT The Chair of the Finance & Performance Committee introduced the report, which included the revised terms of reference and the Health Informatics Plan for Board approval. In relation to the terms of reference, of particular note was the oversight the Committee would have on the developments across the STP focussing on potential financial and performance implications.
There was a detailed discussion in relation to the Health Informatics Plan in particular the ability to move at pace and the opportunity to work collaboratively with partners to enhance the organisations strategic thinking. The Chief Finance Officer confirmed that a session was planned with Board members in January 2018 focusing on digital health.
The Board noted the Finance & Performance Committee Chair’s report and approved both the revised terms of reference and Health Informatics plan.
TB 127/17 QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE REPORT The Chief Operating Officer presented the Quality & Performance Report for month 4 noting that all NHS Improvement indicators had been met for the quarter with the exception of CPA 7 day follow-up.
Key highlights of the report included the increase in physical violence towards staff and the overall trend in the reduction of avoidable pressure ulcers.
It was noted that whilst the Memory Assessment Service had achieved their target, additional support had been sourced to address waiting times in child psychology, ADHD and speech and language therapy.
The Chief Operating Officer confirmed that work was ongoing to address the issue with out of areas placements and the 12 hour position in A&E. PICU out of area treatments in particular remained a key challenge however, internal capacity had been commissioned to support this.
It was noted that sickness rates continued to be a significant challenge for the networks in particular.
There was a discussion in relation to the Trust’s 7 day follow up target set by NHS Improvement. The Chief Operating Officer confirmed that there was a lot of clinical emphasis on the importance of this target and did not believe that the Trust had a systematic problem. The Medical Director confirmed that the Trust takes this target extremely seriously and would quickly note any trends. A query
7 of 198
was raised in relation to the CPA 7 day follow up in secure services and the jump in performance. The Chief Operating Officer confirmed that this was due to the small numbers of patients.
Following a question raised by the Trust Chair in relation to HMP Liverpool being smoke free by September 2017, the Chief Operating Officer confirmed that whilst this specific target was not the Trust’s, the expectation within the healthcare wing was a target of 100% smoke free as this would be in line with the Trusts policy.
The Board noted the Quality & Performance report.
TB 128/17 FINANCE REPORT The Financial Management Director presented the finance report which highlighted that month 4 sees a year to date operating deficit of -£1.4m.
Whilst it was noted that staffing pressures and out of area treatments continued to be an issue, recovery measures were discussed which included the actions to address staffing on wards and assessing levels of acuity. The Medical Director provided an overview of acuity and staffing and highlighted the difficulties faced in recruiting trained staff.
The Chair acknowledged both the long and short term issues and requested that the Executive Directors report back to the Board on the progress being made. ACTION
The Chief Operating Officer updated the Board on the work being undertaken to define pathways by cluster in the mental health network. A discussion ensued in respect of the interdependencies around skills and clinical pathways, the importance of measuring progress against outcomes and the involvement of staff. It was agreed that the Chief Operating Officer would prepare a paper for discussion at the Finance Recovery Group on the 19th October. ACTION
Following a concern raised in respect of the out of area placements trajectory, the Chief Operating Officer outlined the work being undertaken to address this, which included recommencing the work with the rehab beds and the forthcoming meeting to discuss the integrated discharge hub.
The Medical Director confirmed that the Trust’s actual usage of beds in terms of length of stay was good and the number of beds after adjusting for morbidity was slightly lower than the national average. However, the issue was around the reallocation of beds. A discussion followed around the Trust’s responsibility to resolve the issue and what was an underlying health economy challenge.
Prior to the close of the Board meeting, the Chair took the opportunity to congratulate the Medical Director and his team of consultants on the work to support medical recruitment.

Introduction This report aims to give Board members an overview of the activity undertaken since the last Board meeting, both within the Trust and externally.
QUALITY AND SAFETY
CQC Inspection: HMP Liverpool The Care Quality Commission (CQC) conducted a short notice inspection of healthcare services at
HMP Liverpool. The inspection took place week commencing 11 September 2017 and involved pre-
inspection data collection and four days onsite. The Trust was given verbal feedback on conclusion of
the four days onsite which included a recognition that improvements had been made but equally
areas for improvement remain. The CQC will provide draft reports in around 6 weeks.
Serious Incidents During August 2017, ten serious incidents were reported:
(brief information is provided to protect confidentiality, the term suicide is only used once a Coroner’s
Inquest has returned a verdict of suicide)
Death (suspected suicide) of a patient recently discharged from inpatient mental health
services in East Lancashire;
Unwitnessed fall resulting in fracture in inpatient mental health services in Blackpool;
Death (suspected suicide) of a patient under the care of the Assessment and Treatment Team
in Preston;
Serious self harm of a patient in child and adolescent inpatient mental health services;
Death (suspected suicide) of a patient under the care of the Assessment and Treatment Team
in Fylde and Wyre;
13 of 198
Death (suspected suicide) of a patient under the care of Community Restart Team in Preston;
Serious violent incident involving a patient in child and adolescent inpatient mental health
services resulting in police utilising a taser;
Death (suspected suicide) of a patient under the care of Community Mental Health Team in
Hyndburn and Rossendale;
Grade 4 pressure ulcer on a patient under the care of the Moorpark Fulwood and Ingol
Integrated Neighbourhood Team;
Death (cause unknown) of a patient recently discharged from inpatient mental health services
in Blackpool.
In all cases, a formal investigation is now underway and the incidents have been reported to
commissioners, NHS England and regulators as required under the NHS Serious Incident
Framework.
Raising Concerns During August 2017, twelve concerns were reported through the various mechanisms including the
Raising Concerns Guardian and through Dear David:
Quality and safety of services on Wordsworth Ward at the Harbour due to staffing challenges;
Assaults on staff and safety at the Scarisbrick Centre;
Poor staffing levels at the Scarisbrick Centre impacting on staff and patient safety;
Staffing levels at the Scarisbrick Centre;
Staffing levels at Guild Lodge due to a number of leavers;
Service impact from a number of administrative staff leaving Guild Lodge;
Concerns about a named lead professional;
Conduct of managers in a Central Lancashire Community Health Team;
Quality and safety concerns at HMP Liverpool;
The cost of business insurance for administrative staff doing very few business miles;
A staff member has not had their PDR completed;
The way in which a service review in dental services has been carried out.
In all cases a review of proportionate scale has been commissioned. The findings from each review
are individually fed back to the person raising the concern if they have provided their name. The
findings from every concern is summarised in the Quality Matters bulletin.
Health and Wellbeing Karen Seal, Acting Clinical Lead for the Eating Disorder Service has been shortlisted for an award in The Gazette Best of Health Awards within the Mental Health Worker of the Year category. FINANCE AND PERFORMANCE
Finance Report The position as at Month 5 sees a year to date operating deficit of -£2.0m, excluding planned Sustainability and Transformation funding of £0.6m, against a planned surplus to date of £0.2m. The current position continues to be driven by staffing pressures in ward and prison areas and a slow start to delivery against planned cost improvement programmes and OAPs expenditure has now started to exceed funding. The forecast assumes current pressures and risks are addressed or mitigated and financial performance achieves (or exceeds) plan but the unmitigated projection indicates a gap of c£6m, c£8m without STF monies. This is a significant deterioration from month 4 (£2m), mainly due to excess OAPs of c£1.8m but also prisons and additional mental health pressures, and it will not be without significant management challenge. After taking in to account £1.7m of disposals, which are accounted for after EBITDA, EBITDA is broadly in line with I&E Margin. The new Use of Resources (UoR) metric is rated at 3, but will rise to a 2 should the Trust meet its financial plans and targets.

Quality & Performance Report The Quality & Performance Report can be viewed under item TB 147/17. Trust Shared Objectives 2018/19 Following consultation with staff and senior leads the Shared Objectives 2018/19 have now been agreed. Communication of the objectives has begun and will support the development of network and support service operational plan objectives for next year.
GOVERNANCE
NHS Improvement Cyber Security Assurance Following two national serious incidents in August related to delayed electronic clinical correspondence to GP’s, NHS Improvement requested assurance from all trusts that the IT systems used are clinically safe (i.e. the technology is functioning correctly), there are no current backlogs of electronic correspondence and mechanisms/processes are in place to ensure that delays in transmission are detected in a timely fashion. The Trust provided positive assurance against all three areas to NHS Improvement within the required deadline. Innovation Agency Extension In May 2017, the Board approved-in-principle the Innovation Agency taking on a lease for new premises contingent upon the AHSN being relicensed by NHS England. The relicensing process was expected to commence in September 2017 however there have been delays within NHS England and as a result NHS England have written to Liz Mear as Chief Executive of the Innovation Agency to advise that the license approval has been pushed back to March 2018. The letter confirms that the existing contract has been extended by 6 months to ensure the Innovation Agency do not start to issue staff notices in anticipation of the licence ending. On the basis of the extended NHSE contract, the Innovation Agency has requested approval to enter into a lease for space within the Accelerator Building in Liverpool as the current office site is no longer fit for purpose. The Liverpool premises will be let at a reduced rent rate due to a capital investment which the Innovation Agency has already made into the facility. On the recommendation of the Chief Executive, the Trust Chair has agreed the progression of the lease under Chairs action outside of the Board meeting.
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
Winter Preparedness & A&E Performance Preparation for winter is well underway across the health system, including plans which are being put in place to support acute A&E performance over winter. Along with other provider organisations, the Trust has contributed to these external plans as part of a whole system response to easing A&E pressures. Assurance on the Trust’s own internal winter preparedness plans has been scheduled for the November Board meeting.

PURPOSE OF THE REPORT:
Report purpose To appraise the Board of Directors of key elements and themes from the Month 5 QPR
Strategic Objective(s) this work supports
To provide high quality services
Board Assurance Framework risk 2.1 The Trust is unable to reposition in the marketplace to become established as a provider of choice achieving excellence
CQC domain Well-led
The Board are asked to note the QPR for month 5 with following comments below.
All NHS I metrics are compliant including CPA 7 day follow up which, following a failure to
achieve target in month 4, the position has now been recovered.
The developing Southport and Formby QPR which is starting to track elements of performance
within the services provided through this contract. This will be developed over future months as
an appendix of the main QPR
Are we SAFE?
Current CQC rating is ‘requires improvement’
As stated in previous months the Quality Improvement work underway to improve on this rating. The
Quality Plan will cover the key improvement areas within this domain and it is set to deliver on 16
Quality priorities, utilising Quality Improvement (QI) methodologies. We remain on track to complete
the development of detailed delivery plans and defined outcome measures for each, by the end of Q2.
Progress on the 16 key priorities will be monitored through the designated sub-committee and the
BBSC is also tracking the status of the quality plan.
Avoidable pressure ulcer (grade 3 and 4) incidence continues to fall following the increase seen in Q1.
One of the Quality priorities is work to reduce pressure ulcers and there is a positive impact of the
React to Red training programme. In addition, pilots of safety huddles and a safety senate are allowing
the sharing of good practice and are contributing to the reduction in the number of pressure ulcers.
17 of 198
Physical violence towards staff although decreased in month, is still tracking at
higher than average. In month 5, 220 incidents were reported compared to 265 in month 4. The
hotspots identified are in PICU and older adult wards. The Quality and Safety team are providing
additional support, in relation to older adults, with a review of personal care activities under way to
provide specific training and identify if there are any changes in clinical practice required. It is also
acknowledged that the work being overseen by the Positive and Safe Group is a long term piece of
work, and an impact on incidence is unlikely to be seen in the short term. In addition, during Q2, the QI
plan will be finalised and the trajectory of improvement will be agreed. Currently, the Trust benchmarks
above the mean for incidents of violence and restraint, the target for achievement the first instance will
be based upon achieving a level below the mean.
In addition are a number of other measures that are connected to the increase in physical violence
towards staff, and thus will be addressed by the improvement work conducted through the Positive and
Safe Group. These measures are the use of restraint, which this month has decreased from 460 to 336
against an average of 300 per month; the number of RIDDOR incidents, which has decreased from 6
last month to 1 in month 5; and the achievement of the overall harm free care metric for Mental Health,
where there is performance of 80% against a 90% target. Within the harm free care metric, measures
relating to violence, restraint, and whether people feel safe are driving the shortfall in overall
performance.
Also linked to this is the number of Serious Incidents, which has increased in month with 10 reported
against a monthly average of 7.8. Whilst these inter-connected measures are multi-factorial, staffing
challenges play an important part and metrics around temporary staffing usage and sickness are
important indicators of the challenge to workforce.
Are we CARING?
Current CQC rating is ‘Good’.
We maintain 100% compliance against mixed sex accommodation breaches.
Feedback received through the Friends and Family test is stable at 97% which continues to be positive.
In addition, the number of compliments has risen to 735 above the rolling 12 month average.
Are we EFFECTIVE?
Current CQC rating is ‘Good’.
Readmission rate for both 30 and 90 days improved for the second consecutive month in month 5, at
6.9% and 17.3% respectively. Whilst rates still exceed the agreed standards for 90day readmission,
this month the 30d readmission rate has achieved the required standard. Team leader reviews at
CMHT/CRHTT clinical discussion meetings continue and show a positive effect along with analysis or
readmission data being routinely reviewed in locality governance groups. Furthermore, the monthly
thematic review of all readmissions has been maintained to enable continuous improvement of factors
contributing to reasons for readmission.
Average Length of stay has performed within target for the first time since January 17. PICU Length of
stay has fallen for the second month after being stable for four consecutive months, thus demonstrating
the positive impact of the Joint Advisory Group. Overall LOS, which is inclusive of PICU patients has
also reduced. The focus on patients with LOS greater than 180 days is being maintained.

Delayed Transfers of Care (DToC) is reported for Longridge Hospital this
month due to the facility exceeding the 7.5% threshold against this measure.
Are we RESPONSIVE?
Current CQC rating is ‘Good’.
The Trust continues to perform well against NHS I indicators. In month 4, the CPA 7 day follow up
measure was not achieved, however, this position has been recovered in month 5 and continued focus
during September will ensure that the quarter 2 position will be achieved.
Responsiveness is also demonstrated through our achievement of the 18 week referral to treatment
(RTT) standard for AHPs and for dental waiting times. In the Community Wellbeing Network, as
reported last month, all 15 services across which this standard is measured, are compliant. In the
Children and Young People’s Wellbeing Network, 4 of the 6 services across which we report the 18
week RTT pathways are complaint, which is an improvement on the position over recent months.
The Children’s Speech and Language Therapy service have achieved the RTT measure of 92% of
patients on the waiting list having waited less than 18 weeks, reporting 96%. The agreed recovery
trajectory forecasted all locality teams to meet the 92% target in September 2017, and this has been
achieved for all teams apart from 1 in August. The Chorley & South Ribble team have experienced
delays achieving the required capacity to deliver recovery by September and so are forecasted to
achieve the target by mid-October. It is important to note that referrals to the service have increased in
month 5 which does pose a future challenge to performance and this is being understood.
The 2 areas of performance which remained challenges are Child Psychology and CAMHs Tier 3.
Performance in Child Psychology for month 5 was 77.7% against the 95% RTT standard for patients
starting treatment, which is an improved position on the previous 12 months reported. In addition, the
number of children on the waiting list who have waited >18 weeks continues to reduce (from 106 in
month 4 to 78 in month 5) which is a positive indicator that the recovery plan is having an impact.
Further reduction in the number of long waiting patients are planned which will result in the service
continuing to report under-performance against the 95% target until the backlog is cleared.
Conversely, performance in the CAMHS Tier 3 service has deteriorated further and the service are
reporting 64% against the 95% RTT standard for completed pathways (compared to 68% in month 4).
The Chorley and South Ribble team continue to be the main contributor to the under-performance with
capacity shortfalls caused by sickness and vacancies an issue that is being addressed by the
appointment of a new team leader. Demand exceeding the commissioned level and the management
of Autistic Spectrum Disorder referrals (which is not part of the service specification) poses a significant
challenge. As well as new staff commencing in post in October in the Chorley South Ribble team, the
team are signposting appropriate patients to Early Help services and will be using a demand
management tool to assist with effective planning. Additional management oversight has also been put
in place to support the team.
Memory assessment services have achieved 80% against the 70% target against the 6 week referral to
assessment standard, a further improvement on last month’s position and the third month that the
service has reported a compliant position. Whilst the overall position is extremely positive, the Central
Lancs MAS team continue to underperform and are constrained by an absence of agreement for
shared care. Work continues with commissioners with a view to resolving this.
19 of 198
In Mindsmatter a number of measures are monitored that indicate our overall
responsiveness. The service continues to perform well against the NHS I indicators for referral to
treatment in 6 and 18 RTT weeks and it is positive that the number of patients on the waiting list who
have waited longer than 26 weeks has reduced significantly this month. The performance against the
recovery measure is also positive whilst performance against prevalence has been challenging at team
level. A substantial amount of work has been undertaken with individual teams to address the
challenges meeting prevalence targets and teams are clear on the activity required to achieve the
quarter 2 position by team and this is being managed closely.
The demand for inpatient beds continues to pose a challenge for the Trust, with occupancy levels
exceeding 100%. Consequently, the number of out of area placements (OAPs) has not fallen in line
with the required trajectory and has stayed largely static at just 23.68 compared to 24 last month. There
is evidence that the implementation of intensive support schemes has impacted on the number of
admissions yet this has not avoided the use of OAPS. However, there is an increased focus on the
reduction on the number of patients who have a length of stay of greater than 180 days who are ready
for the next stage of treatment away from the acute/PICU ward, but for whom there is no suitable
alternative placement available. The timely discharge of this cohort of patients would enable the
resolution of the OAPs position and discussions with commissioners are underway to develop plans to
resolve this.
Mental health liaison teams (MHLT) are reporting a deteriorating position against all 3 measures,
demonstrating the challenge the teams are facing with demand and capacity. The discussions with
NHSE, CCGs and Acute partners which have been occurring since the receipt of the Royal College
recommendations and in parallel with A&E Delivery Board/Risk Summit discussions have culminated in
submission of a bid for monies to mitigate the gaps in service provision pending the Core 24 funding
available from 18/19. A decision on the bid is expected on the 30th September and implementation of
the plan from the 1st November if funding is received.
This month the number of complaints has increased to 165 in month 5 compared to 134 in month 4,
which is above the rolling average of 128 per month. This reflects work that has been ongoing by the
Nursing and Quality to reach HMP Liverpool and Secure services which are traditionally low reporters.
The number of upheld complaints is below the average of 25, with 22 upheld in month (which is a slight
increase on month 4 position), whilst the number of re-opened complaints is low demonstrating that on
the whole complainants are satisfied with the quality of the responses provided.
Are we WELL-LED?
Current CQC rating is ‘Good’.
There is no update on the Staff engagement score until the Q2 position is available.
Sickness rates have fallen to 6.2% for the first month following a 4 month increasing trend of fourth
consecutive (in month 4 sickness was 6.4%). The Mental Health Network is also reporting a reduction
in sickness this month, improving from 7.98% in month 4 to 7.38% in month 5. The implementation of
the Back to Basics Sickness Absence Management approach is being implemented across other
Networks given the rise in sickness in the Children and Young People’s Network.

Summary and Recommendations
The information in the QPR provides evidence of our performance against key metrics aligned to each
CQC domains. From this, and the exception reporting against each measure, we are able to provide
information that supports the assessment of our position against each domain.

Agency Ceiling The figures show a worsening position in month 5 by a significant degree; with
over £120,000 more spent in August than July. This has been caused by the
high use of annual leave, a further worsening of the Agency position at HMP
Liverpool and continuation of Medical Agency use month-on-month. There is
a chance Medical Agency could increase again in September and onward due
to an increased vacancy position.

Note: NHS England guidance published in October 2015 confirmed that the incomplete pathway operational standard should became the sole
measure of patients’ constitutional right to start treatment within 18 weeks. And whilst we are required to maintain reporting on the completed
admitted pathway, the removal of the completed admitted pathway as an operational standard means that there is no longer any provision to report
pauses or suspensions in RTT waiting time clocks in monthly RTT returns to NHS England. This means that patients choosing to cancel
appointments can impact negatively on this measure.

DToC:
The DToC breach was due to 1 community patient. Delays with social worker allocation combined with family choice for residential care
home placement resulted in a breach by 31 days in August.
The community ward has put a process in place to closely monitor delayed discharges but do not feel on this occasion there was a set of
unforeseen circumstances and there is no emerging theme.

Occupancy:
It is noted that throughout August, occupancy levels across the Service have fallen below the contracted threshold. The
following rationale illustrates the reasons for the monthly fall in bed occupancy:
• Greenside Male MSU had 1 vacancy - allocated to SU from Ashworth awaiting Ministry of Justice (MOJ) permission before
the Service is able to admit
• Dutton Male LSU had 1 vacancy - allocated to SU awaiting MOJ permission before the Service is able to admit
• Fairoak Ward Male LSU had 3 vacancies - 2 of the vacancies are for SUs stepping down and awaiting MOJ permission
before the Service is able to admit
• Bleasdale ABI Medium had 2 vacancies - 1 allocated to SU in Ashworth awaiting MOJ permission to step down
• Whinfell ABI Medium had 1 vacancy - SU on waiting list, unable to admit until current physical health treatment complete
• Langden Ward Male LSU ABI had 2 vacancies - 1 allocated to SU awaiting MOJ permission to step down and 1 SU on
waiting list being reviewed again for suitability
• Hermitage ABI/MI Step down Community House had 1 vacancy

Violent Incidents resulting in Restraint:
In August 2017, staff reported a total of 122 incidents of verbal and physical violence within the inpatient unit. This equates to a
27% increase in reported violence month on month, increasing from 96 recorded incidents in July 2017. August saw the overall
use of restraint decrease, with 17% of violent incidents ending in restraint compared to 30% in July 2017.
Elmridge ward continues to have above higher than average levels of restraint, although this has decreased significantly to 8 in
August compared to previous months. A service user on Greenside has had a number of incidents in August whilst being
nursed in long term seclusion, however this service user is now awaiting transfer to high secure care. Datix reports show that
there was 1 incident of unintentional prone restraint used in August 2017 on Elmridge ward.
Positively, it is noted that 70% of restraints involved less restrictive techniques such as walking with the service user and
placing them in a seated position.

CPA Reviews within 6 Months:
In August, 4 out of 143 eligible service users have not had a CPA within the last 6 months.
All four have been rescheduled to take place before the first week in October. Reasons for these postponements are due to sickness
within the MDTs, link workers being unavailable and changes in ward/RC.
Through monitoring of the planned reviews, the service is aware that potentially three reviews will fail next month due to existing date
changes.

Local Care Co-ordinator >2weeks:
Further discussion has taken place regarding this indicator and it has been agreed to follow the Trust principle for the reporting of
unallocated cases. Therefore, the indicator now looks at the number of service users that have been allocated a Local Care Co-ordinator
within 2 weeks of admission of the total population.
Failure to meet 100% target was due to a complex case for one service user. Challenges allocating a link worker where the primary
reason due to their diagnosis. This case has been escalated to the relevant locality Care Group Manager.

25hr Meaningful Activity:
In August, 5 wards failed to meet the 100% target in relation to meaningful activity uptake. Uptake has decreased from 86.84% in July to
74.15% in August.
During August, Calder ward has been without a ward manager and has experienced varied levels of acuity. A ward manager is now in
place and a 2nd team leader will be in place from October, meaning levels of recording are expected to improve.
On Dutton ward, there are service users within the group who are reluctant to engage and their activity can therefore be limited and
unpredictable. It has also become clear that there has been some under-recording as it has been established there are at least 2 service
users within the group who have taken up more than 25 hours activity, despite records indicating otherwise.
On Mallowdale ward, uptake has increased significantly from 0% in July to 62.5% in August. Work continues within the team to support
service users to take up the opportunities of activity both on and off the ward and accurately record activity.
On Marshaw ward, uptake has decreased significantly. This has been due to increased levels of acuity on the ward. The sickness level is
also high which has resulted in high levels of bank and agency usage which may account for reduced recording and reluctance of service
users to proactively engage.
Following a period of improvement over recent months, the uptake of activity has decreased on Fairoak during August. This appears to be
due to a lack of recording rather than a reduced uptake of activity.

Pathways have been reviewed for the caseload and it is apparent that the current target of less than 12 months is clinically unrealistic and
that a more robust and clinically safe pathway takes significantly longer to achieve. A sustainable pathway into locality community
services reduces risk of reoffending/readmission.

Number of Incidents exceeding PACE Clock:
There were 5 reported episodes of individuals being detained in Police Custody beyond the 24 hour limit.
Since the implementing the PACE breach reporting via DATIX, there has been a significant improvement in the process of accessing
and allocation of beds for persons in police custody. The relationship between Criminal Justice Liaison & Diversion (CJL&D) and the bed
management hub has developed into one of understanding and proactive responsiveness. There are now excellent lines of
communication between CJL&D and Senior Management within Adult Mental Health services.

HMP Liverpool – HJIP Indicators:
GP Waiting Times:
There are currently 220 patients on the GP waiting list with the longest wait 15 working days, an increase of 3 days from July. The increase
was due to four lost clinic sessions due to the bank holiday, prison shutdown and no GP because of Eid celebrations. This is the equivalent
of 50 lost appointments. The DNA figure was down by 3% to 30.4% but this is still significantly above acceptable levels. The subject of
DNAs due to prison enabling was on the agenda of the Local Delivery Group meeting with the prison which was scheduled for 9th August
but this had to be cancelled due to insufficient attendance of the Governor grade.
NHS Health Checks:
Of the 31 patients eligible for the NHS Health Check at the beginning of August, 16 patients were offered appointments. Of the 16 offered,
only 7 were seen as 9 either did not attend or refused on the day. Of the 359 new receptions in August, a total of 143 patients declined the
NHS Health Check and a further 185 were not eligible.
Wellman Screening:
There were 432 Wellman screenings completed during August, which is in excess of the 359 new receptions. This is as a result of the
catch-up screening programme, which aims to screen any service users who have previously been missed through either being moved to
other areas of the prison before screening, refusing to take part or being transferred straight to segregation.
Immunisations and Vaccinations:
The Immunisation and Vaccinations clinics have been affected by the Smoke Free campaign currently being run in the prison and also by
annual leave. HMP Liverpool has to be smoke free by the 25th September and this is utilising substantial staff resources. Despite this, staff
are still managing to facilitate more clinics than they are actually profiled to do.
DNA - Enablement Issues:
This continues to be the biggest obstacle to overcome for Healthcare. The Local Delivery Group meeting scheduled for 9th August, where
this issue was due to be discussed, had to be cancelled due to lack of attendance by the prison Governor grades. Healthcare continue to
report DNA rates daily at the morning meeting, however there remains a lack of co-operation to address the issue. A HMIP and CQC
inspection is scheduled for 11th September and Healthcare will be raising this issue.

IAPT - Prevalence:
East Lancs CCG teams have not met prevalence in Month 5. The teams were 45 patients away from meeting Month 5 target, however
based on the Quarter 2 target, the teams are 6 patients above the expected number required (combination of Quarter 2 figures for July and
August).
Greater Preston CCG team have not met prevalence in Month 5. The team are 64 patients away from meeting Month 5 target, and 41
patients away from meeting the Quarter 2 target (combination of Quarter 2 figures for July and August). The deficit of 41 patients has been
added to the prevalence target for September.
St Helens CCG team have not met prevalence in Month 5. The team are 46 patients away from meeting Month 5 target, and 98 patients
away from meeting the Quarter 2 target (combination of Quarter 2 figures for July and August). The deficit of 98 patients has been added to
the prevalence target for September.
A cumulative prevalence model is in place to direct and support teams to achieve the 16.8% prevalence target set by NHS England. Quarter
2 is 15.8% prevalence for most teams across Mindsmatter. St Helens CCG have agreed that prevalence will stay at 15% as they have not
received any national LTC funding. Blackburn with Darwen CCG's prevalence target remains at 10.4%+ LTC, with an expectation that this
will increase and funds will be reattributed to this locality next year.
The leadership team have daily oversight of performance across all teams. Performance data is examined daily against agreed actions in
order to identify areas of deficit in prevalence and, in conjunction with team members, direct the focus and resource within each specific
locality. Deficits and risk areas to achieve prevalence are raised at team and line management level and are escalated to the Leadership
team and the Network managers immediately in order to expedite actions accordingly.

IAPT - Waits:
All people waiting over 26 weeks have been reviewed. The people waiting in both Blackburn with Darwen and Preston CCG
have been waiting for other reasons relating to patient choice, not due to waiting for the next available appointment. These
individuals have either an appointment booked or have been discharged.
For the people waiting over 26 weeks in Fylde and Wyre, an action plan was implemented to manage and reduce the waiting
list. People were offered alternative interventions, such as Silvercloud, to enable them to start their CBT therapy prior to one-
to-one therapy. This is being monitored in the weekly leadership meetings. This commencement of the action plan can be
demonstrated in the reduction in people waiting over 26 weeks this month.
Waiting times across each waiting time bracket are also being reviewed weekly by the leadership team and priority areas are
being addressed at management and team level.

2.1 Performance Activity Children & Young People’s Wellbeing – Child Psychology
51
Child Psychology (Total Network Performance):
In M5, overall service performance increased to 77.7%, an increase of 3.6% from M4. The current rate is the highest since April 2016.
One out of the five team’s performance remains above the target of 95% and four teams under the target. The total number of SUs on the
waiting list reduced in M5, from 410 to currently 350.
The number of SUs waiting over 18 weeks reduced from 106 in M4, to 78 in M5. 51% of waiters over 18 weeks are from Blackpool/Fylde
and Wyre team (40). 15 have TCI dates.
Blackpool/Fylde Team
Blackpool/Fylde team performance has been affected by ongoing staffing capacity issues and vacancies. However, staff capacity is
improving following the recruitment of a full-time Locum Psychologist at the end of May, and a Band 6 Mental Health Practitioner who
started on 25th July.
Performance in Blackpool has increased by a further 10% to 59.6% in M5, with 31 SUs waiting under 18 weeks. 9 SUs have TCI dates.
Performance in Fylde & Wyre has increased by 11% to 45.7% in M5, with 16 SUs waiting under 18 weeks. 5 SUs have TCI dates. Data for
the Fylde & Wyre waiting list has been reviewed for accuracy following the move of referral management to the Referral Appointment
Centre (RAC).
Preston Community
Preston Community performance increased to 65.8% in M5, and is also affected by ongoing staffing capacity issues. The total number of
children waiting for treatment has reduced further to 38, the lowest level in the last year. All referrals above 15 weeks wait have TCI
appointments.
Preston is implementing a Brief Therapy (SFBT) project before two of our Clinical Psychologists leave in November. This will likely take
four people off the waiting list for hopefully a short intervention (three sessions).
Lancaster
Lancaster performance increased slightly to 80.3%; a 7% increase from M4. Of the 14 SUs waiting over 18 weeks, 3 have TCI dates.
Lancaster has two permanent Clinical Psychologists each working two days a week. An agency Practitioner is working three days a week
via CAMHS until the end of March 2018, and another CAMHS Practitioner on a temporary contract is doing two days a week for Lancaster
CPS until April/May. A new Clinical Psychologist will also take up post in Lancaster in November 17.

In M5, overall service performance reduced by 3.6%, from 68.1% to 64.5% (412 SUs). This equates to 227 out of 639 waiting over 18
weeks for treatment.
Chorley & South Ribble
Performance reduced further in M5 to 42.6% from 48.7% in M4. There are currently 213 out of 371 SUs waiting over 18 weeks. Four SUs
have TCI dates.
Long term sickness and absence continues to provide staffing challenges although recruitment to the vacant team leader role has been
successful. The appropriate steps are being taken to address this absence. The Team Leader commenced the role on 17 July 2017; a
recovery plan has been drafted for Network approval.
The team continues to manage large numbers of Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) referrals which do not meet the criteria for Tier 3
CAMHS; this is custom and practice at present but will be addressed during the transformation 0-25 workstream.
Subject to the team reaching full staffing levels, we anticipate to see improvement in performance from October 2017.

Speech & Language Therapy
55
CITNS SLT (Total Network Performance):
As a speciality, Speech & Language Therapy performance in M5 was 96.2% against the 92% threshold for open RTT pathways, an
increase of 7.8% from last month. This is the first time the service has been above the 92% target since October 16. The total waiting list
of 947 reduced by 349 in M5, with the total number waiting over 18 weeks reducing by a further 114 to 36, of which 34 have appointment
dates. Therefore only 2 clients over 18 weeks do not have appointment dates.
Marked improvements have been achieved in the targeted areas of BwD, B&P and HRV&R – all of which are now above the 92% target.
Only Chorley & South Ribble is below the 92% target.
Chorley and South Ribble (CSR) team’s performance reduced further in M5 to 90.7%, from 91.3%. Staff capacity is currently at 65%.
There are now 15 children waiting over 18 weeks, all of which have an appointment. The longest wait now stands at 21 weeks.
Blackburn with Darwen (BwD) team’s performance has significantly increased by 9.4% since M4 to 98.2%. There is only 1 child waiting
over 8 weeks who has an appointment to be seen. The longest wait now stands at 21 weeks.
Burnley and Pendle (B&P) team’s performance has significantly increased by 11.1% since M4 to 97.4%. There are now only 7 children
who are waiting over 18 weeks, all of which have an appointment to be seen. This team has received a significant increase in the
number of referrals in M3 and M4 which was double the anticipated number. This may impact waiting times in M7 and M8. The longest
wait now stands at 23 weeks.
Hyndburn, Ribble Valley and Rossendale (HRV&R) team’s performance has increased by 14.3% to 93.5% in M5. There are now only 11
children who are waiting over 18 weeks of which 9 have an appointment to be seen. The longest wait now stands at 25 weeks.
In CSR, the actions outlined below should mitigate against a further performance reduction and see the team meet the 92% target by
mid-October 2017.

2.1 Performance Activity Children & Young People’s Wellbeing – Occupancy
57
Occupancy:
In M5, bed occupancy performance at The Cove dropped to 68.8% from 94.6% in July 17, against the target of 85%.
The CAMHS Outreach Team received 15 referrals at The Cove, and five of these referrals resulted in admission. 1 of these was a re-
admission.
There were nine discharges from The Cove in August 2017.
Length of stay of discharges during August 2017 was 28 days against the national benchmark of 83 days.
The Cove was open to admissions through August and was running at full capacity. Bed occupancy was reflective of demand for beds
throughout the North West, which could potentially be attributed to the seasonal variance of school holidays.
There are no open actions for this measure as the unit is open for business but there are not enough appropriate referrals to fill the empty
beds.

2.1 Performance Activity Children & Young People’s Wellbeing – ADHD
58
ADHD:
Performance in M5 improved by 1.9%, from 77.3% in M4 to 79.2%. This equates to a 46 service users currently waiting over 18 weeks,
out of a total of 235. 18 service users have a TCI date.
Issue affecting performance:
• Two NMPs left the service in April 17, meaning that 50% of our prescribing capacity was lost. Whilst the service have recruited to the
posts, the specialist nature of the role has required a period of formal training and preceptorship meaning this post is not currently at full
prescribing capacity. Therefore, we are still not in a position take new assessments from the waiting list into the prescribing at the rate
that we have previously.
• The caseload remains over 3 times higher than the service was commissioned - 180 patients, whilst current caseload is 708. The
agreement from the MD to transfer around 130 patients stable on ADHD treatment and who were also open to Consultant Psychiatrists
within the Trust to secondary care is still to commence. The service is still awaiting further instructions as to how this will be
implemented.
• The rate of DNAs continues to exceed that projected within the pilot project (10%) impacting on capacity.
• Shared Care arrangements with certain GPs continues to impacts on clinical time as staff are required to respond to requests for
prescriptions. Discussions are ongoing with GP colleagues as to how to make this system more efficient.

2.2 Patient Flow Out of Area Placements (OAPS)
62
OAPS:
The average number of OAPs decreased slightly in August by 0.55, alongside a slight reduction in the OAP OBD in August with a
position of 734, a reduction of 17 from July. Continuing the reduction seen in July.
The overall number of OAPs remains static against an assumed fall in the trajectory. There are strong assurances as to the intended
impact of Intensive Community Support Schemes on admission numbers. Focus has therefore increased on those patients of over 180+
day Length of Stay on acute mental health wards. Case review confirms that these patients are ready for their next stage of treatment
away from the acute ward or PICU that they are on. The patient cohort have chronic mental health presentations with slow responses to
treatment. Typically, their presentations fall short of the threshold for a secure services bed, but will not be accepted by independent
providers. LCFT have agreed with commissioners to established an integrated discharge team to manage this patient cohort. STP leads
have agreed that the costs of 'discharge to assess' beds are not within the OAPs spend, as this is a clear and distinct cohort of patients
to those require an OAP due to an acute presentation. From the current inpatient cohort, zero 180+ day cases would result in zero acute
OAPs and LCFT occupancy on acute wards below 100%, zero older adult OAPs and LCFT occupancy on older adult wards below
100%, and in two PICU OAPS.

Use of Resources rating (UoR)
Overall performance against the UoR is rated at 3. The rating is primarily driven by the I&E performance and in particular
the I&E Margin rating of 4. Assuming management action to bring financial performance back in to line is successful the
Trust will maintain eligibility for Sustainability Funding and will achieve a UOR of 2 in line with plan.
Should conditions persist and costs not be managed within the control total then the resulting deterioration might attract
regulatory attention (a rating of 2 can trigger a regulatory review of the Trust's position).

Sustainability
At month 5 we have a £2.0m deficit which is £2.2m behind plan. Of this £0.6m relates to Sustainability and Transformation
Funding which leaves a shortfall against the control total of £1.6m. The current forecast assumes current pressures and risks
are addressed and financial performance achieves (or exceeds) plan but the unmitigated projections indicate a gap of c£6m,
c£8m without STF monies, so this will not be without significant management challenge. Several key areas will have to be
managed if the Trust is to achieve this:
• Cost Improvement Programmes
• Cost Reduction Schemes
• Reset/Redundancies
• Southport
• Out of Area Placements
• Ward Staffing

Cost Improvement Programmes
At £5.0m in month 5 the Trust is c£0.8m behind the plan of £5.8m. This is mainly attributable to delays in schemes
but more significantly due to lower than planned traction in schemes designed to address pressures on ward based
staffing.
Additional support is being offered and the Trust fully expects to deliver the target by year end.
Note: a number of schemes are still being transacted and that mapping of individual schemes to projects and programmes is still being finalised.

Capital Expenditure
To date, the Trust has spent £1.5m against the original profile of £4.4m.
Spend profile on schemes is dependent on a number of tendering exercises to be completed in Q2 and though changes are
being worked through the programme total has now been adjusted to reflect the Trusts success in securing external funding
for Places of Safety (£0.5m), Perinatal (£3.5m - £2.5m in 2017/18) and Inpatient schemes (c£5.7m in 2017/18 - provisional).
Also of note are the Trust plans to dispose of Westfields, Ribbleton and Ridge Lea in 2017/18.
The Trust currently expects to complete its capital programme in line with its control total and funding.

2017-18 Baseline Proposal
LCFT have received notification that the proposed 2017-18 Baselines have been signed off by Commissioners and can therefore be reported
against from Month 5.
2017-18 M5 Activity
LCFT will now begin to provide variances against monthly plans at CCG level, however where C&SR and GP provide services that flex to meet
the demands of the central Lancashire area these will be reported as Central Lancashire Locality. Where services are reporting over and under-
performance of 10% or more LCFT will produce exception narrative as follows:-
* Under-performance - Explain the current position and issues and where known provide a timeframe of when the service anticipates to be back
on plan.
* Over-performance – Explain the reasons for the over-performance.
As we are almost half way through the year LCFT will provide exception reports for all services breaching by -/+10% at M5 but have agreed that
rather than wait until 3 months of Underperformance from those services that have been underperforming for sometime, they will identify those
that are significantly off track and look to produce an Exception Report with a Recovery Plan and comprehensive narrative for M6.
LCFT have negotiated with Commissioners the need for a refresh of the activity data back to Apr-17 for all Community Services in order to input
the missed Paediatric Liaison activity for East Lancashire CCG and to correct the Contact and Referral activity figures for C&SR and GP after it
was identified that they had been transposed. LCFT are therefore planning to complete a refresh of the data for M6 which will allow accurate
variances against plans to be shown.

3.2 Contract Activity – Variance to Plan Community & Wellbeing – Activity Exception Reports by CCG
Community & Wellbeing Planned Contract Activity M5
The Community & Wellbeing Network has provided the following explanations as to why certain services are underperforming by more than 10% against the baseline.
Commissioner: NHS Blackburn with Darwen CCG
Under Performance Exception Reporting:-
Adult Learning Disability Service 60.3%-
Current position and issues:
Review of the figures indicate that there is a recording issue across learning disability teams. The activity recording system in Adult Learning Disabilities is a dual
system using paper based clinical records with the addition of ECR for recording contacts. Whilst guidance has been issued as to ‘how to record’ to staff in M2, this has
not reduced variation. This will be resolved as the team move onto Rio in M12.
It was advised when baselines were established for 17/18 that these were built on understood activity from last year which was not validated. We have completed an
initial review of the learning disability teams’ data; however, the figures continue to show a disparity between teams. Whilst we are aware that recording issues
continue, we have also identified that clinicians are not aligning their log-ins to the area where they are delivering interventions. This continuing disparity requires a
further in-depth analysis of the data.
Clinicians are also recording a substantial amount of their activity as ‘non-client linked activity’ which is not included in the reported activity e.g. work with providers &
social workers. Analysis of this area will provide direction as to clarification of baselines and activity.
Fylde and Wyre baselines were based on 10 WTE however the PBS project has now finished (August) and 3 staff have left. This is reflected in the reduction in activity.
The over activity in respect of the Morecambe CCG area is in respect of the development of the ASD pathway and the low baseline that was established prior to this
contract variation. This will need reviewing once the contract has been confirmed.

3.2 Contract Activity – Variance to Plan Community & Wellbeing – Activity Exception Reports by CCG
Commissioner: NHS Blackburn with Darwen CCG
Under Performance Exception Reporting:-
Community IV Service BwD 62.11%-
Current position and issues:
The IV team continue to be impacted by a reduced number of referrals to maximise the capacity of the service. The service continues to work with BWDCCG and ELHT to
maximise referrals. The IV team have capacity to see more referrals and promotion to access is on-going.
Community Stroke Service 21.63%-
Current position and issues:
Under performance is due to a combination of vacancy and Band 3 sickness absence. Quality patient care is being maintained, patients are receiving an initial telephone
contact within 1 working day mon-fri and a face to face initial assessment within 5 working days.
Complex Case Management 15.37%-
Current position and issues:
Under performance is due to a combination of vacancy and new starters being unable to work independently due to requirements for training which have been actions.
Referrals for the service have increased to 22 in M5 and this is above the average of 15 for M1-M4. Quality patient care is being maintained and all referrals are being
actioned.
DESMOND (Completed Courses) 36.23%-
Current position and issues:
Underperformance for DESMOND contacts is due to sickness absence by one of the educators. sickness has affected the ability of the team to deliver the programme, but
every effort has been made to deliver this including delivery by a DSN. September is predicted to deliver 3 courses.
Diabetes Specialist Nursing 29.87%-
Current position and issues:
Underperformance has been due to a DSN vacancy and a DSN providing a DESMOND program, however a new DSN commenced in post during August 2017 and this
can be seen in the improved performance from an average contacts of 308 contacts for M1-M4, which is 429 in M5 which although still under monthly target of 451 is a
significant improvement in performance.
Treatment Room 14.91%-
Current position and issues:
The treatment rooms overall positon is impacted by over performance in Non-Serious Injury, Specialist Ear Care and Ulcer & Vascular and significant under performance
in treatment rooms. The treatment rooms respond to the needs presented and issues have been raised with commissioners regarding increased complexity of patients and
this impacting on contacts as appointments are prolonged to manage multiple complex issues, particularly in relation to ulcer and vascular care. DNA’s are also noted to
impact on phlebotomy appointments, so the team are planning to change to a walk in service from 1st November to improve activity in this area. 112 of 198

Children's Learning Disability Service 58.11%+
Current position and issues:
Children’s LD service offer additional service on non-recurring monies and increased funding since April, for up to 53 referrals to the team per year. Baseline needs
reviewing
Community Respiratory Service 14.82%+
Current position and issues:
The 15% over performance this month is a reduction from 49% over performance in May 2017, and please note this is in line with a vacancy/turnover within the team
which has brought activity nearer to plan.
District Nursing 11.63%+
Current position and issues:
Teams are responding to increased demand generated by OOH care. More people are staying on caseloads for longer and demand for long term clinical interventions for
people to stay well at home is increasing - e.g. diabetes/ insulin, long term Catheter care. A review of transition from day to OOH care is being completed in M4 and
results will be a plan in M6.
Pulmonary Rehabilitation 32.61%+
Current position and issues:
The current position in activity over plan is due to the numbers of patients attending and successfully completing their course. This is due to intensive work contacting
patients, building relationships with the service which has resulted in more patients completing a six week course, as predicted earlier explains the increased number of
contacts
Rapid Assessment Team 13.08%+
Current position and issues:
Following a significant increase in referrals in M4 referrals rates are high but more consistent with previous months. The service continues to over perform on activity due
to high number of referrals of patients in crisis situations at home and palliative patients who require urgent intervention from the Rapid Assessment Team.

Commissioner: Central Lancs Locality
Under Performance Exception Reporting:-
Diabetes Specialist Nursing 12.79%-
Current position and issues:
Although there is a YTD negative variance of -13%, increased monthly activity due to favourable staffing levels is contributing to a positive variance in month against
monthly plan
Intermediate Care ACS 26.27%-
Current position and issues:
A period of vacant beds in Meadowfield and Broadfield impacted upon activity levels. As per lines 39 and 40 it is forecast that overall activity in Intermediate Care, Falls
and Community physiotherapy will collectively be above baseline
Tissue Viability Service 53.44%-
Current position and issues:
A low referral rate for the months of July and August has resulted in a reduction in activity in Central Locality during the month of August after 4 months of over-
performance due to increasing referrals. This has left us in a YTD position of over performance even though we are showing as an in month negative variance against
monthly plan.
Over Performance Exception Reporting:-
Adult Speech and Language Therapy 41.51%+
Current position and issues:
Increase in referrals. Increased use of band 3 to complete follow up and telephone contacts to review progress.
Community Neuro Team 19.63%+
Current position and issues:
Increase in referrals overall. Caseload becoming more complex as patients discharged from hospital earlier in their journey creating an increase in the number of contacts
needed for the patients.
Community Respiratory Service 27.84%+
Current position and issues:
Relatively high numbers of referrals in both July and August together with increased acuity of caseload has contributed to the positive in month variance against monthly
plan. 115 of 198

Over Performance Exception Reporting Continued:-
DESMOND (Completed Courses) 18.10%+
Current position and issues:
The service currently has an action plan in place to increase uptake of diabetes structured education. This is now delivering improvements in attendance and
contributing to a positive variance in month against plan.
Domiciliary Physiotherapy 74.20%+
Current position and issues:
Over-performance is in part due to staff configuration set up default position choosing incorrect team name when recording data - this is being addressed with staff.
Some of this over performance (including Falls over performance - see line 40) will be offset against the Intermediate care ACS line.
Falls Team 69%+
Current position and issues:
Referrals into the service for June and July have continued to increase. This will be monitored in line with the newly implemented re-ablement pathway.
Underperformance in Intermediate Care reported due to the spread of work across the different modalities can see activity being counted within falls or physio.
Phlebotomy 14.62%+
Current position and issues:
A positive variance in month is due to increasing numbers of patients attending drop in sessions. There is no control over the number of patients that attend. Some of
this increase in activity is due to increasing numbers of patients attending for their outpatient bloods.
Viral Hepatitis 52.70%+
Current position and issues:
A low referral rate for the months of July and August has resulted in a reduction in activity in Central Locality during the month of August after 4 months of over-
performance due to increasing referrals. This has left us in a YTD position of over performance even though we are showing as an in month negative variance against

Commissioner: NHS Fylde and Wyre CCG
Under Performance Exception Reporting:-
Adult Learning Disability Service 23.38%-
Current position and issues:
Review of the figures indicate that there is a recording issue across learning disability teams. The activity recording system in Adult Learning Disabilities is a dual
system using paper based clinical records with the addition of ECR for recording contacts. Whilst guidance has been issued as to ‘how to record’ to staff in M2, this has
not reduced variation. This will be resolved as the team move onto Rio in M12.
It was advised when baselines were established for 17/18 that these were built on understood activity from last year which was not validated. We have completed an
initial review of the learning disability teams’ data; however, the figures continue to show a disparity between teams. Whilst we are aware that recording issues
continue, we have also identified that clinicians are not aligning their log-ins to the area where they are delivering interventions. This continuing disparity requires a
further in-depth analysis of the data.
Clinicians are also recording a substantial amount of their activity as ‘non-client linked activity’ which is not included in the reported activity e.g. work with providers &
social workers. Analysis of this area will provide direction as to clarification of baselines and activity.
Fylde and Wyre baselines were based on 10 WTE however the PBS project has now finished (August) and 3 staff have left. This is reflected in the reduction in activity.
The over activity in respect of the Morecambe CCG area is in respect of the development of the ASD pathway and the low baseline that was established prior to this
contract variation. This will need reviewing once the contract has been confirmed.

Programme assurance heat maps). Further work required to establish benefit trackers for each
programme, to enable leads to measure performance and provide robust assurance on delivery.
Governance and reporting structure has been reviewed and whilst Programme Assurance Groups
continue for each portfolio, the performance management group has been stood down and PAGs will
report directly to BDD via this report.

Resources (corporate/other/kit)
Resources are aligned to most projects from the networks in relation to project leads and clinical
leads, with the exception of CWB where there are a number of gaps relating to Transformation
support, a resolution to this is being sought. Schemes that have yet to be initiated are being
evaluated against a framework, to determine what resources will be required to support the
schemes.

Budget
The financial savings target for the programme is £15.1m - with £11.1m of traditional CIP schemes
and £4m of cost reduction schemes. There are plans to the value of £13.2m registered on Sharepoint,
£12.1m as approved, with £0.98m at Feasibility stage. Within the £12.1m approved, £2.4m relates to
cost reduction scheme for which delivery ytd is unconfirmed and there is slippage of £117k against
approved schemes in year. Pipeline schemes to the value of £1,659 are undergoing due diligence to
mitigate the gap of £2.01m in order to achieve the 17/18 target.

Risks
The risk profile is emerging and will be further developed as PIDs and QIAs are approved. The
greatest risk being the achievement of the overall savings profile required to deliver the financial
target for the year and the progress on transformation schemes to deliver CIP schemes for 18/19.

All the programmes have now been inititated, apart from CPOC which is yet to be scoped out. All PIDS
have been agreed and highlevel plans are in place. Further work is required to establish detailed benefit
realisation plans. Most plans i are on track with some delays in the LD programme, which can be
mitigated through work ongoing within the programme delivery group. Next steps will be to establish
detailed benefits profiles for each programme, that will be provide greater assurance.

All work-streams except Complex Packages of Care have now launched. Following the decision at the
Business Development and Transformation Committee on 10 Aug in recognition of interdependencies, the
Tier 3/Child Psychology Services scheme is absorbed into the 0-25 scheme and a joint project plan has been
developed. All PIDs and highlevel project plans are in place, and QIAs will be developed as the model is
agreed. These documents are iterative and will develop as plans become more mature.

£1.4m is registered on the CIP system, £1,167k approved and £254k at feasibility. Current forecast of
£1049k delivery with £117k slippage on the continence and dental scheme, which is a deteriorated
position on last month. However, further work has progressed on the gap of £962k and pipeline schemes
to the value of £617 are undergoing due diligence to mitigate the gap.
£5.5m of schemes are registered as approved, with declared slippage of 11k. This position includes
£3.45m of schemes related to cost reduction (see below). This is a slight deterioration on the position on
last month, with schemes worth £435k still in the pipeline. Tracking of the progress and delivery £2.4m
cost reduction schemes related to tenporary staffing and OAPs spend is required to evidence the
delivery of these schemes and the impact of pressures elsewhere in the budget needs to be recognised
as offsetting the impact of these schemes. A recovery plan has been developed to address the overall
pressures in MH. There remains a risk around the admin scheme which has not commenced but is due to
yield savings from September.
£1.54m of schemes are registered on the system, all of which are approved. Pipeline schemes to the
value of £517k are in train- and if all schemes are approved this will leave £82k to bridge the gap. This is
an improved position on last month.

Summary continued overleaf
To Date the Trust has spent £1.5m against the original profile of £4.4m. Spend profile on schemes is dependent on a number of tendering exercises to be completed in Q2 and though changes are being worked through the programme total has now been adjusted to reflect the Trusts success in securing external cash for Places of Safety (£0.5m), Perinatal (£3.5m - £2.5m in 2017/18) and Inpatient schemes (c£5.7m in 2017/18). Timings on the original plan were largely indicative, delays on schemes contingent on agreements with third parties on site arrangements coupled with delays around external cash funding support have negatively impacting on the management and delivery of the whole capital programme. Revised forecasts are being developed for quarter 2 to support cash and capital management. The Trust currently expects to complete its capital programme in line with its control total and funding.
Cash shows an adverse variance from plan of £3.1m. The I&E position continues to be offset by the capital position however timing issues around working capital and in particular debtors are having a significant adverse impact. The main issues surround late council payments (c£3.3m) and unpaid NHS contract monies (£2m). Forecast cash is currently expected to exceed plan, primarily as a result of assumptions around external capital funding for the Inpatient Scheme and the disposals of Westfields, Ribbleton and Ridge Lea - see Cash and Liquidity for more details.
Current Out-Turn
At month 5 with CIPs of £5m against a plan of £5.8m the Trust is c£0.8m behind plan, a deterioration of £0.2m on month 4 (£0.6m behind plan). The adverse variance is mainly due to staffing and delays in the delivery of community schemes and is factored in to the forecasts above. The network management team are now being supported by corporate nursing to implement measures aimed at improving the position.
Month 5 sees a year to date operating deficit of -£2.0m, excluding planned Sustainability and Transformation funding of £0.6m, against a planned surplus to date of £0.2m. The current position continues to be driven by staffing pressures in ward and prison areas and a slow start to delivery against planned cost improvement programmes and OAPs expenditure has now started to exceed funding - see Out Of Area Activity for more details. The forecast assumes current pressures and risks are addressed or mitigated and financial performance achieves (or exceeds) plan but the unmitigated projection indicates a gap of c£6m, c£8m without STF monies. This is a significant deterioration from month 4 (£2m), mainly due to excess OAPs of c£1.8m but also prisons (see also Bank and Agency section) and additional mental health pressures, and it will not be without significant management challenge. After taking in to account £1.7m of disposals, which are accounted for after EBITDA, EBITDA is broadly in line with I&E Margin. The new Use of Resources (UoR) metric is rated at 3, but will rise to a 2 should the Trust meet its financial plans and targets, see below.

Key Actions
Recovery Plan
#
• Finalise OAPs recovery plan and track implementation• Continue the performance management of CIP
Whilst it would appear that the gap can be bridged the plan, currently considered a working draft, is not without significant risk. Delivery will only be achieved with a considerable coordinated and sustained effort across the organisation. The plan will now be refined and presented in more detail to the Financial Recovery Group along with the actions required.
• Finalise the nurse staffing management plan and track implementation
The Trust is currently forecasting the achievement of plan but there are significant pressures challenges involved:• Achievement of ward staffing savings, given acuity and occupancy pressures.• Curtailment of OAPs below funded trajectory• Achievement of Sexual Health income targets.• Achievement of all cost improvement target savings by services.
The current I&E position is constraining the current UoR to a 3, assuming current pressures and risks are addressed and financial performance achieves (or exceeds) plan the Trust will achieve a forecast UoR of 2 in line with the revised plan. Should conditions persist and costs not be managed within the control total then the resulting deterioration might trigger a review of our segmentation.

Surplus - YTD (£m) Surplus - Out-turn (£m)
This month sees an operating deficit of £2.0m, £2.2m behind plan, of which £0.6m relates to STF funding.
YTD income variance relates mainly to STF funds which are assumed in forecast along with additional funds re NCAs and R&D
Staffing variance has increased in part due to phasings of development funding in mental health, but more materially due to ward pressures.The full year projection is an operating surplus of £2.3m, accounting for the STF funding in the plan. The position models an upside of c£8.3m and includes profit on disposals of c£1.7m.

Monthly Income Variances (£m) Cumulative Income Variances (£m)
Major decrease due to Southport commencing in May and not April offset by minor gains in other services including Rheumatology and District Nursing.Major increases revolve around the phasing of the Out of Area Placements expenditure, in addition to Liaison & Diversion and Eating Disorders. Major decreases in Rehabilitation Services and Hospital Liaison.Income is in line with plan at this stage. Year end variances are driven by the anticipated cessation of the HIV contract.Major decrease in respect of lower than planned activity in Sexual Health services and forecasts for Sexual Health and Offender Health later in the year.

6 Corporate services are slightly behind plan year to date, with overspends in IM&T currently met by underspends in Finance, Medical, and Innovation.
Mental Health in year overspend is driven more acutely by excess staffing costs, primarily on wards, (£2.0m). Actions to review the patients in inpatients setting, their appropriateness for the ward and levels of staffing associated with acuity are advanced and should furnish us with the appropriate information to discuss necessary action to recover the position. There is also significant CIP slippage, as all CIPS have been withdrawn but some schemes are still in development (c£0.9m). The Network's position is diminished further by ward overspends in Secure Services wards (c£1.3m).OAPs are now manifesting as overspends (£0.3m year to date)Community's position is impacted by undelivered CIPs to date (£0.7m). Underspends on community teams and non-pay continue to alleviate the current position.Children and Young People have similarly been impacted by a shortfall on CIP delivery(£0.13m) and Sexual Health activity shortfall (£0.2m) but is currently being compensated for by vacancies and non-pay underspends.

CIP Achievement (£)Notes
Year to Date PerformanceAt month 5 with CIPs of £5m against a plan of £5.9m the Trust is c£0.8m behind plan, a deterioration of £0.2m on month 4 (£0.6m behind plan). The adverse variance is mainly due to staffing and delays in the delivery of community schemes. The network management team are now being supported by corporate nursing to implement measures aimed at improving the position.
Schemes to be Transacted£1m of schemes are yet to be transacted at month 5 leading to year to date slippage of c£0.41m. There is a good degree of confidence in the delivery of these schemes.
Schemes In Process£1.6m of additional schemes identified are not yet sufficiently detailed to transact and after allowing for slippage factored into plan this results in slippage of c£0.37m. There is some confidence in the delivery of these schemes.
Schemes to be Identified£0.4m of additional schemes are required if the Trust is to achieve its CIP (£0.7m at month 4).
ForecastThe programme is currently expected to achieve the Annual Plan.

The Trust has been given a ceiling by NHS Improvement for agency spend. This target is£7.695m for the year. At the end of period 5, the Trust is -£394k, or 12% above it'strajectory. The new Use of Resources rating measures agency against target and containstrigger points. Key trigger points are a requirement for 50% and 25% or better for ratings of3 and 2 respectively. An individual rating of at least 3 is required to obtain an overall ratingof 2 (see also Use of Resources section).
Corporate Services is net of the charge levied for agency staff. Agency spend is negligible with the exceptions of Health Informatics and AHSN.
Agency Costs Over Time (£'000) Bank Costs Over Time (£'000)
A high level of vacancies is supported by bank and agency, though increased levels of recruitment mean overall staffing costs remain high. Agency costs have increased from last month as well as bank costs.Mental Health Networks bank and agency costs are primarily due to the level of acuity on inpatient wards being beyond the level established although the in month increase is almost entirely attributable to staffing issues at Liverpool Prison.Children and Young Peoples temporary staffing remains relatively minor and consistent.Community and Wellbeing sees an increase in both Bank and Agency, with the major agency change being in respect of medical staffing in Rheumatology and Dietetics.

6 Provisions and Deferred Income are currently generating gains of c£0.9m over plan. Crystallisation of income and redundancy settlements are expected to reduce gains and this is factored into forecasts.
Monthly Cash and Liquidity Variance (£m) Forecast Cash and Liquidity (£m)
Timing of settlements to suppliers is having a negative impact on cash (£2.6m). Levels are lower than expected, but are variable and largely transient in nature, the position is expected to trend toward plan.
Reductions in capital expenditure are supporting cash more than compensating for the impact of the deficit. Forecasts assume planned revenue and capital forecasts are achieved, that PDC for the inpatients Programme is in line with expectations, and that the disposal of Westfields, Ridge Lea and Ribbleton take place in 2017/18.
Debtors remain behind plan, this is mainly due to late council payments (c£3.3 - settlement agreed) and unpaid NHS monies (£2m - unpaid NHS block/recharges and CQUIN).
Forecast cash is ahead of plan by c12.9m partly due to the change in opening position c2.7m, but mainly due to assumptions around disposals (net improvement c£5.75m - Westfields, Ribbleton and Ridge Lea) and the assumed external cash funding of a substantial part of the Inpatient Scheme (net improvement £4.6m). The forecast assumes that proposed management action to bring financial performance back in to line is achieved (including profit on disposals) and also that the Trust, as a result, maintains eligibility for Sustainability Funding.
Cash shows an adverse variance from plan of £3.1m. The I&E position continues to be offset by the capital position however pressures on working capital and in particular debtors are having a significant adverse impact. The main issues surround late council payments (c£3.3) and unpaid NHS monies (£2m), see below.
Contract variations and phasing adjustments negatively impact on cash and are not included in plans.

Note 6-
External cash funding has now been agreed for the Perinatal project with £2.5m being allocated to 2017/18 and £1.3m allocated to 2018/19. Upon conclusion, tender exercises will be undertaken with a view to start on site in Q3.
£0.5m of external cash funding has now been allocated for Places of Safety. Upon conclusion, tender exercises will be undertaken with a view to start on site in Q3, some work is contingent on third parties.
Capital Expenditure
To Date the Trust has spent £1.5m against the original profile of £4.4m. Spend profile on schemes is dependent on a number of tendering exercises to be completed in Q2 and though changes are being worked through the programme total has now been adjusted to reflect the Trusts success in securing external cash for Places of Safety (£0.5m), Perinatal (£3.5m - £2.5m in 2017/18) and Inpatient schemes (c£5.7m in 2017/18 - provisional). Timings on the original plan were largely indicative, with Perinatal and Inpatient schemes in particular being contingent on agreements with third parties on site arrangements. This coupled with delays around external cash funding support have negatively impacted on the management and delivery of the whole capital programme. Revised forecasts are being developed for quarter 2 to support cash and capital management. The Trust currently expects to complete its capital programme in line with its control total and funding.
Minor slippage as work has been focussed on ensuring the IT demands of the transferring Southport & Formby services are met, much of the capital costs for which were incurred in 2016/17.External cash funding has been provisionally allocated through the STP to the Inpatient project, though work on design, agreement of total funding and development of construction profile are still in process. Upon conclusion, tender exercises will be undertaken with a view to start on site in Q3.
No planned/expenditure in Q1. Schemes have now started though with some delays, partly as a result of inpatient development. 177 of 198

Finance and use of resources is one theme of 5 in the Single Oversight Framework. Segmentation and therefore autonomy and support is dependent on performance across all themes.
Note that under the Single Oversight Framework a score of 1 is now the best rating and 4 the worst. A rating of 4 on any metric or an average rating of 3 triggers a concern and a potential support need.
Overall performance against the UoR is rated at 3 . The rating is primarily driven by the I&E performance and in particular the I&E Margin rating of 4. Assuming management action to bring financial performance back in to line is successful the Trust will maintain eligibility for Sustainability Funding and will achieve a UOR of 2 in line with plan. Should conditions persist and costs not be managed within the control total then the resulting deterioration might trigger a review of our segmentation.
• Capital Service is currently a 3 against a plan of 2, an increase in operating performance of c£0.9m would be required to increase the rating to 2.
• Liquidity is currently a 1 against a plan of 1, a deterioration in the liquidity metric of c£3.3m would be required to reduce the rating to 2.
• I&E Margin rating is currently 4 against a plan of 2, an increase in operating performance of c£0.6m would be required to increase the rating to 3 - Note that the deficit of -£2.0m is £2.2m behind the RCT (£1.6m exc STF)).
• I&E Variance from Plan is currently 3, an increase in operating performance of c£0.6m would be required to increase the rating to 2.
• Agency is currently 2 based on a metric of 12%, a decrease in agency costs of c£0.4m would be required to increase rating to 1.

The Trust is actively exploring the potential for land sales. Gains may crystallise in 17/18 dependent on timing and profits willcontribute toward the control total.
On-going Claims: VAT claims continue to be pursued in relation to older developments and changes in rulings. A recent ruling nowsupports our claim, but the claim is by no means certain to succeed. Timing and amounts are uncertain though value may be up to£2m, no gain is assumed. Our advisors are actively engaged in bringing this to resolution.
SubjectA number of disputes require resolution and may result in arbitration. These concern NHSE, West Lancs, and Pennine CCGs.
NHSI is currently clarifying the position around elements of the national contingency reserve, £0.5m of which is now outstanding.
The forecast trajectory with regard to Out of Area Placements (OAPs) is currently projected to £1.8m. However there remains a risk tothis this position.
Provision for charges incurred as a result of the organisational reset have been made, the process is largely complete and the financialconsequences are still being finalised so some risk remains.
STF monies have been included in forecasts on the assumption that the Trust will achieve its revenue control total. Should this not bethe case £2.1m of funding would be lost.The Trust is monitoring national legal challenges around pay for sleepover in Learning Disabilities care placements, there is a potentialfinancial risk.

ForecastActuals
If the current trajectory persists this would present pressure in the order of £2.5m.
The Trust is mobilising Acute Therapy Services in Pennine and Chorley, Crisis Support Units in Preston and Blackpool, and a Crisis House in Coppull. These services have an impact on the bed trajectory and variations in timing will alter the OAPs usage accordingly.
There is a fund of c£3m for OAPs, financed 50:50 by the Trust and Lancashire CCGs. Any underspend can be used to support inpatient staffing while occupancy is above 90%.
Current projection suggest there will be expenditure of £4.3m for OAPs in 2017/18. Additionally, a further £0.5m has been assumed as a pressure.
Commissioners have asked for, and are receiving, monthly actual performance against the profile.

Introduction
This report will provide an overview of the current infrastructure for medicines management
within the Trust, the governance processes that underpin the safe and effective use of
medicines and highlight areas of achievement and development.
Structure
The structure and staffing for the Pharmacy and Medicines Management team is as in
appendix 1. HMP Liverpool is managed within the Mental Health Network and doesn’t sit
within this structure but the Chief Pharmacist still retains Professional responsibility for any
registered Pharmacy staff working within the Trust.
Definition
Medicines Optimisation vs Medicines Management
Medicines management was defined in Talking about Medicines (Healthcare Commission
2009) as the following: -
“Medicines management encompasses the entire way that medicines are selected,
procured, delivered, prescribed, administered and reviewed, to optimise the contribution that
medicines make to producing desired outcomes of patient care”
This has now been replaced by Medicines Optimisation which is defined as: -
“An approach to ensuring patients get the best possible health outcomes from their
medicines, whilst organisations make the best use of their medicines resource”
The NICE guideline Medicines Optimisation: the safe and effective use of medicines to enable the best possible outcomes, published in March 2015 provided a platform for the Trust to develop a three year Medicines Optimisation plan. The plan aims to ensure that prescribing is cost-effective, safe and of high quality so that medicines use is optimised and unmet pharmaceutical need is met on an individual and population basis. The Trust three year Medicines Optimisation plan focusses on the following areas: -
Systems for identifying, reporting and learning from medicines-related patient safety incidents.
Medicines-related communication systems when patients move from one care setting to another.
184 of 198
Prepared By: - Sonia Ramdour Chief Pharmacist Date prepared: - October 2017
Systems supporting safe transfer of care between providers which
includes the accurate medicines reconciliation in all settings especially
when patients cross care boundaries i.e. admission and discharge
Reduce preventable deaths and minimise the burden of disease through the utilisation of
medicines which includes both mental health and physical health drugs
Effective implementation of NICE guidance
The development of Care Pathways including the introduction and use of new drugs
Monitoring antibiotic prescribing to reduce the impact of antimicrobial resistance
Rationalising prescribing for wound care and continence products and appropriate formulary management
Involvement of patients and carers in decision making around medication including
access to information and choice of medication
Tackling medicines waste which includes focussing on adherence and over prescribing
Financial and budgetary control to ensure that we achieve financial balance
The Medicines Optimisation Strategy was updated in September 2017. A new three year
plan will be developed in 2018 following publication of the updated Professional Standards
for Pharmacy Services and feedback from the Carter Review of Pharmacy and Medicines
Management in Mental Health and Community Services.
Governance
Drug and Therapeutics
The Trust Drug and Therapeutics (D&T) group meets on a bimonthly basis and is co-chaired
by the Chief Pharmacist and the Deputy Medical Director.
The membership comprises a cross section of the organisation both mental health and
physical health including medical and nursing colleagues.
The agenda for the meetings includes
The introduction of new drugs,
Budgetary and financial control of drug expenditure for mental health and oversight of
expenditure in service lines within Networks (e.g. Rheumatology, Sexual Health,
Prisons),
Medication Safety including the management of medication incidents,
Non-Medical Prescribing practice,
Patient Group Directions (PGDs),
Safe storage of medicines,
Audits of prescribing practice including POMH-UK,
Policy and procedural development and review
Adoption of NICE guidelines and Technology appraisals,
Patient Safety Alerts re medication including Never Events
Guideline development for prescribing and monitoring
Information resources including patient information leaflets
Homecare
There are three sub groups which sit underneath the D&T
185 of 198
Prepared By: - Sonia Ramdour Chief Pharmacist Date prepared: - October 2017
The Medication Safety Group (chaired by the Medication Safety
Officer) which focusses on all aspects associated with medication
safety including incident reporting and review.
The Homecare Group (chaired by the Lead Pharmacist for East Lancashire) which
manages all Homecare activities re medicines in line with the recommendations of
the Hackett report “Towards a Vision for the Future” published in 2011.
The Prison D&T which manages the specific issues that are pertinent to the Prison
services as they have their own procedural framework due to the complexities of
handling medicines within the prison setting. They also have their own formulary as
this comes down through the specialist commissioners
Controlled Drugs
There is a statutory requirement for designated bodies to appoint a Controlled Drug
Accountable Officer (CDAO) in order to meet the requirements of the Health and Social Care
Act 2012 (revision 2013) and the Controlled Drug Regulations 2013. This is a delegated
authority from the Chief Executive and the individual must be a fit, proper and suitably
experienced person who is accountable and reports to an executive director and have no
direct day to day contact with either the supply, prescribing, administration or destruction of
Controlled Drugs.
The Chief Pharmacist in LCFT is the CDAO and is responsible for ensuring the safe and
effective use of CDs across the organisation. On a quarterly basis the CDAO must submit a
return to the Local Intelligence Network (LIN) which outlines the incidents that have occurred
within the organisation. The submission is required on the 6th day of the month immediately
following the previous quarter i.e. 6th July, 6th October, 6th January, and 6th April.
The reports have been submitted in a timely manner and LIN meetings attended.
Following concerns about repeated Datix reports at HMP Liverpool reporting small
discrepancies in controlled drug balances, an independent assessment of controlled drugs
processes was undertaken by the CDAO at NHSE and the Police Liaison Officer in April
2017. The only high level risk was felt to be the potential for prisoners to access illicit
substances and divert medication. These risks are noted to be of national concern within
prison environments, along with use of Non Psychoactive Substances (NPS) which is a
further concern within the LCFT prison establishments.
Drug Expenditure
New Drugs and their Introduction
The managed introduction of new drugs in particular prior to recommendations provided by
NICE is key to managing the resources available and delivering good medicines
optimisation. The Trust is an active partner in the Lancashire Medicines Management group
(LMMG) which was established in 2013. The purpose of LMMG is to provide a platform for a
consensus decision making process relating to the use of medicines across the Lancashire
186 of 198
Prepared By: - Sonia Ramdour Chief Pharmacist Date prepared: - October 2017
NHS footprint, to ensure equity in access to medicines and optimisation of
medicines use. The decisions made are recommendations to the CCGs as
the current statute for the establishment of CCGs does not allow for devolved accountability
for decision making.
The introduction of the “Biosimilar” products for some of the biologic drugs used in
Rheumatology has opened up the potential for significant savings. There are now plans in
place to initiate new patients on the biosimilar products but agreement has still to be reached
re the switching of existing patients over to the new biosimilar products. In order to realise
efficiency savings there will have to be an agreement with the CCG as these drugs are
recharged back to the CCG as they are PBR excluded drugs. It is anticipated that a gain
share agreement can be reached in line with National guidelines which would allow for
investment in existing Rheumatology services.
Horizon scanning is undertaken routinely as part of the business planning process with
significant new drugs expected in the next three years for the treatment of Alzheimer’s
disease and the introduction of more biosimilar drugs in respect of Biologic treatments.
The Lord Carter Review
The Carter Report “Operational productivity and performance in English NHS acute
hospitals: Unwarranted variations” was published in February 2016 and appertains to Acute
Hospital Organisations. As of October and November 2016 a similar exercise is being
undertaken for mental health, community and specialist organisations and LCFT are actively
involved in this review as one of the cohort trusts. Whilst the expected savings from the
acute model are in the region of £1billion pounds by 2020 it is not anticipated that similar
savings will be released from this review. The major savings in the acute trusts are from the
uptake and use of Biosimilar drugs as discussed above under new medicines and the
introduction of more collaborative working across organisations in particular what are
considered back office functions e.g. medicines supply, medicines procurement and stock
holding. The benchmark targets also include an increase in Pharmacist prescribing, the
introduction of electronic prescribing and the correct coding of medicines to ensure accurate
transfer of prescribing information across interfaces. It is anticipated that more Pharmacist
time spent in clinical activities will lead to greater efficiencies in prescribing and improve
outcomes.
The benchmark target for clinical facing activities is 80% and provisional analysis of the
activity in LCFT demonstrates that we are at 90% front facing clinical activity.
The Top 10 Pathways targeted for further considerations within Mental Health and
Community Services are as follows:
Wound care (including pressure ulcer care)
Management and care of continence and stoma care
Diabetes care including diabetic foot ulcers
Outpatient Parenteral Intravenous/Antimicrobial Therapy
Low Molecular Weight Heparin administration
187 of 198
Prepared By: - Sonia Ramdour Chief Pharmacist Date prepared: - October 2017
Antipsychotic choice, monitoring and adverse event management
Antipsychotic use in Dementia and Learning Difficulties
Medicines waste
Medicines adherence
Nutritional support
Data has been collated and submitted to support benchmarking across Trusts. Areas of
unwarranted variation will be examined following publication of the benchmarking data and
will inform the medicines management business plan for 2018/19. It is noted that significant
pieces of work have already been undertaken in some pathways within the past 12 months,
including introduction of a Total Purchase Scheme for dressings within Lancashire to reduce
waste, revision of wound care and continence formularies and medicines management
support to Outpatient Parenteral Antibiotic Therapy (OPAT) teams to enable outpatient
administration of antibiotics for agreed infections.
Electronic Prescribing and Medicines Administration As outlined above the introduction of electronic prescribing and medicines administration
(EPMA) is seen as essential to achieving good medicines optimisation and is a key outcome
measure for the Carter review.
LCFT embarked on the procurement and introduction of EPMA in 2014 with commencement
and rollout in July 2015 to all mental health inpatient units.
The benefits of EPMA were highlighted in a document from NHS England in 2014 and in LCFT the following are seen as key benefits which are mainly qualitative with limited cash releasing.
All prescriptions legible and complete so ensuring that patients receive the correct
medication at the right time.
System removes the requirement for rewriting prescriptions so has released time for
medical staff to focus on clinical work and reduced transcription errors
Allergy section mandatory and also alerts if a prescribed drug is contra-indicated
Allows nursing staff to ensure all medicines have been administered at the end of a
medicines round resulting in fewer missed dose which is a key indicator for the
medication safety thermometer.
Prescription charts accessible to all staff groups at all times - even off site which allows
on call doctors to manage multiple sites
Visiting GP’s and Dentists are able to view from their bases
Decision support highlights interactions making prescribing safer
Allows Pharmacy to see discharge prescriptions immediately
Links to Pharmacy dispensing system again preventing transcription errors
Allows formulary management
Fully auditable so errors are more visible.
Reporting capability allows prescribing patterns to be analysed
188 of 198
Prepared By: - Sonia Ramdour Chief Pharmacist Date prepared: - October 2017
A business case has been developed to extend the roll out into the
community teams in mental health so that there will be visibility of
prescribing patterns and is currently pending approval. This will for the first time enable
comparative prescribing data analysis to look at variance in prescribing practice.
During the past 12 months there has been the need to revert to business continuity arrangements on two occasions due to system upgrades or unexpected system downtime. This was successfully managed, minor glitches were escalated to system developers for resolution and have informed updates of the business continuity plans.
Other Key areas of Service Delivery Non-Medical Prescribing (NMP) NMP is undertaken by a range of practitioners to differing levels across the Trust. We have
V300 prescribers who are fully independent and can prescribe within their competencies
from the whole British National Formulary (BNF). V150 prescribers (Community Specialist
Nurse Practitioners) and V100 (Community Nurse Practitioner Prescribers) who have a
limited range of medicines they can prescribe within the Nurse Practitioner formulary. These
practitioners work across arrange of settings i.e. specialist teams (e.g. rheumatology, COPD,
cardiac), District Nurses, Health Visitors, Pharmacists, Mental Health Nurses.
We have 461 NMPs who are currently registered on the Trust database as trainee or
qualified prescribers and each is required to undertake an annual Continuing Professional
Development (CPD) declaration which is signed off by their manager to ensure that they
have the skills and competencies to prescribe. Unless this is undertaken on an annual basis
the right to prescribe within the organisation is withheld.
In order to streamline CPD an electronic declaration which can be mapped to the BNF codes
has been implemented so we can analyse the types of prescribing taking place. A number
of improvements to the e-declaration are being planned to coincide with the publication of
the updated BNF in September 2017. A number of induction sessions have been held at
Southport to provide an introduction to LCFT NMP Governance and training and to support
completion of the e-declaration.
Each year we participate in the regional NMP audit and we always submit a large number of
audit information which provides assurances around practice. We undertake an annual audit
of antibiotic prescribing that is undertaken by NMPs in order to ensure that we are not
contributing to the over prescribing of antibiotics. We have two Commissioner driven
performance standards for prescribing by District Nurses i.e. wound care and continence
products. The requirement for both is that prescribing is within 80% of formulary and current
figures are showing over 90% compliance for wound care.
Education and Training There is a comprehensive medicines management training prospectus offering face to face or e-learning in the following subject areas:
189 of 198
Prepared By: - Sonia Ramdour Chief Pharmacist Date prepared: - October 2017
Administration of Medication Controlled Drugs (LCFT Premises & Offender health) Controlled Drugs (Non-LCFT premises) HCSW/HCA - Witnessing Controlled Drugs Prescribing Standards Medicines Management Level 1 Medicines Management Level 2 Refresher Module Medicines Management Level 3 Refresher Module Patient Group Directions Antimicrobial Stewardship Mental Health Medications Clozapine Rapid Tranquillisation Lithium Introduction to Diabetes Mellitus Management of Venous Thromboembolism
The introduction in August 2016 of an assessment of FY1 prescribing competencies has allowed us to be able to put systems and processes in place to ensure that we have a competent medical workforce in terms of prescribing. This has ensured that junior doctors have the appropriate supervision and sign off around their competencies and skills as a prescriber which ensures patient safety. Medicines management training needs for Allied Health Professionals are currently being scoped and bespoke training for occupational therapists working in mental health and for registered nurses and healthcare support workers in Southport and Formby has been developed. Within the last 12 months, interactive electronic training modules have been developed by senior clinical pharmacists to support clinical development of the pharmacist workforce. This work is being presented at the International Conference of Mental Health Pharmacists in October 2017. Through collaboration with local higher education providers, the medicines management team will deliver enhanced mental health training for pharmacists undertaking Postgraduate Clinical Pharmacy Diplomas and are supporting assessment of staff undertaking their NMP qualification. Key medicines management staff have completed or are undertaking the PGCert qualification to further enhance medicines management training within the organisation.
Medication Safety Officer (MSO) The appointment of a medication safety officer (MSO) was mandatory from 2015. This role in LCFT is undertaken by one of the medicines management nurses. This represents only a handful of nurses that have been appointed to this role but the requirement was not prescriptive to a specific profession. The MSO chairs the medication safety group and also is responsible for circulating CAS alerts received in respect of medicines, providing performance reports for the Commissioners re medication errors, focussed pieces of work in specific drug areas e.g. clozapine and liaising on a national basis with NHS England re the MSO network. The Trust has a good reporting of medication incidents through to the National Learning and Reporting System (NRLS). This is in part due to the activities of the Pharmacy team who record their interventions into prescribing where the majority of these are classed as near misses.
190 of 198

Medicines Management Nurses In order to encourage a more reflective approach to the management of medication incidents and errors the role of the medicines management nurse was introduced into LCFT in 2010 and now includes three members of staff. In 2015 the procedure for the management of medication errors was also rolled out to all professional groups who make a medication error including prescribers. The learning culture created by this reflective approach has ensured that there is open reporting of incidents and we are beginning to see an increase in the numbers of self-reports from medical staff where they have made errors. The main challenge is in capturing near misses as if we could start to capture these we can then prevent an incident from actually occurring. Work is on-going to publicise examples of the types of near misses that should be placed on Datix. We are also keen to promote and encourage yellow card reporting which is the national reporting system for adverse reactions to medicines. This can be undertaken by professionals and patients and has recently been broadened out so that patients can also report where there has been an error in practice i.e. administration of the wrong drug or a prescribing error.
Learning Disabilities
A dedicated Learning Disability Pharmacist works alongside the team to review prescribing
in particular for those patients that are being repatriated from other care facilities as part of
the Winterbourne review. The prescribing patterns seen are complex but the overall aim is to
ensure the appropriate prescribing of psychotropic medication in this patient group so that it
meets best practice guidelines, minimises the risk for the individual patients and reduces the
overall lifetime risk of developing severe and enduring side effects. The pharmacist is
currently leading a piece of work within the Trust in response to the national initiative,
Stopping over medication of people with a learning disability, autism or both (STOMP)
Successes and Developments
Professional Support and Development of Pharmacy Technicians
Following the appointment of a Chief Pharmacy Technician in September 2016, quarterly
training and development afternoons have been introduced for the pharmacy technicians to
provide professional support and development. The Competency Development and
Evaluation Group (CoDEG) competency framework for pharmacy technicians is being rolled
out and will information Personal Development Reviews and support introduction of
enhanced clinical pharmacy roles.
Community Mental Health Prescribing
Approximately 80% of the mental health drug budget is spent in community teams, and yet
these teams are poorly resourced with medicines management staff.
With the current establishment Pharmacists spend time undertaking tasks that could be
done by a clincal pharmacy technicians e.g. storage audits, update of medication snapshot,
response to clozapine plasma levels. Releasing this time would facilitate greater clinical
input and medicines optimisation in the community teams by pharmacists, better oversight of
prescribing practice. This could potentially generate additional savings on drug expenditure
191 of 198
Prepared By: - Sonia Ramdour Chief Pharmacist Date prepared: - October 2017
and lead to improved outcomes for patients. Audit and clinical experience
has also demonstrated areas of poor physical health monitoring and
recording of medication regimens in community teams.
Pilot projects have been undertaken in CMHTs based in Ormskirk, Preston, Chorley and
South Ribble, Accrington and North Lancashire to examine the benefits of putting a Clinical
Pharmacy Technician into the team to address the issues highlighted and promote high
quality care. This has generated the following as key outcome indicators for the development
of this role
They would assess pharmaceutical care needs of community patients
They would highlight against standard criteria those who would benefit from a
pharmaceutical review by a pharmacist. Such criteria would capture high dose
prescribing, polypharmacy and high risk medicines targeting the limited pharmacist
resource to those who would most benefit.
They would ensure that the routine monitoring required by specific medications was
undertaken e.g. Lithium levels and associated blood tests, clozapine plasma levels,
They would ensure that the annual physical health monitoring as required by NICE,
CQUINs and the vision of the Five Year Forward View including blood tests, blood
pressure, weight, indicators for metabolic syndrome, smoking status and routine
screening were up to date by accessing Path lab records, GP records etc.
They would highlight those patients that could be transferred back to GP prescribing
under shared care
The potential gains by undertaking this would be improved outcomes for patients through
rationalising prescribing practice, better physical health monitoring, potential savings on the
prescribing budget and savings on prescriber and clinic time through an overall reduction in
repeat prescribing and monitoring. A report of the pilot is expected in October 2017.
Developing NMP Roles and Improving Capacity
To date, pharmacist NMPs have been working within Community Mental Health, Memory
Assessment and the Lancashire Trauma Services. In May 2017, a pilot of Advanced NMP
on a mental health assessment unit commenced. It was felt that this role could support
timely assessment and intervention, facilitate early discharge and address medical staffing
pressures. A report of the pilot is expected in November 2017
The medicines management team are also increasing NMP capacity within the team with
band 7 pharmacists now enrolling on the NMP course
Antimicrobial Resistance
In line with national recommendations we are required to demonstrate good governance
around the prescribing of antibiotics. Across the Trust our current prescribing of
antimicrobials is low and in mental health this is largely in the inpatient setting. All antibiotic
prescriptions are reviewed in line with the following criteria and this is reported on a quarterly
basis to the Infection Control group.
Prescribing within agreed formulary for the locality (this varies across Lancashire
due to sensitivities in each area)
192 of 198
Prepared By: - Sonia Ramdour Chief Pharmacist Date prepared: - October 2017
Ensuring appropriate use i.e. for recognised conditions
Ensuring appropriate sensitivities
Ensuring appropriate courses of treatment with specific stop dates
In the community there is an annual audit of antibiotic prescribing undertaken by NMPs and
this is reported on to the CCGs as part of the commissioning framework.
The development of community IV antimicrobial services requires more in depth monitoring
and in line with the national patient safety alert and the NICE guideline on Antimicrobial
Stewardship there is recommendation that an antimicrobial stewardship team be established
which includes an antimicrobial Pharmacist. The last 12 months has seen the medicines
management team actively involved in discussions to ensure the safe delivery of Outpatient
Parenteral Antibiotic Therapy (OPAT) services in Central and East Lancashire. There is no
antimicrobial pharmacist within LCFT, although advice is available from the locality acute
trust antimicrobial pharmacist.
Medicines Administration
The current procedural framework for the administration of medicines focusses on the role of
the qualified nurse. A review is currently underway to examine whether as part of expanding
roles that administration could be a delegated practice to non-registered staff. It is envisaged
that this will provide clarity around the scheme of delegation and the underpinning
competency and educational framework that would be required to support this.
Outcomes
How we measure outcomes from good medicines optimisation is challenging and this will
form the key piece of work for the Trust moving forward. The NHS spends approximately 5%
of its annual budget on drugs and this is growing year on year with increased prescribing
across a wide range of conditions. The new developments on the Horizon for a range of
conditions e.g. the use of the newer biologic drugs in Alzheimer’s disease, whilst
representing key developments, will be costly.
The aim will be to try and establish key outcomes whether it be prevention of admissions or
more importantly what is important for the individual patient e.g. health and wellbeing,
employment, relationships etc. By utilising outcome measures we can try to focus on what
our expenditure and prescribing of medication delivers rather than just measuring activity.
Physical Health
As outlined above physical health for our patients with a diagnosis of mental illness is key.
The Five Year Forward View focusses on ensuring that the physical health of patients should
be equally as important as their mental health and it should not be viewed separately. With
mortality rates for patients with a mental health diagnosis higher than the general population
it is essential that we start to address these issues.
The medications that we prescribe are also part of the problem in that they aggravate
obesity, cause diabetes, contribute to cardiac disease through increasing cholesterol and
lipid levels and lead to increased mortality levels. We therefore need to ensure that patients
get targeted treatments that take account of pre-existing morbidity and that medication is
193 of 198
Prepared By: - Sonia Ramdour Chief Pharmacist Date prepared: - October 2017
reduced to the minimum that will allow the patient to remain well with
significant reductions in polypharmacy. We also need to ensure that
appropriate physical health monitoring takes place and that patients receive advice and
support to manage emerging physical health problems e.g. weight management, smoking
cessation, exercise and access to appropriate prevention advice.
Challenges
Staff Health and Wellbeing
A high sickness absence rate within the medicines management team has prompted further
consideration of how staff are best supported to maintain and improve their health and
wellbeing. Temporary relocation of staff to inpatient services, regular health and wellbeing
discussions and initiatives have been introduced in response to concerns.
Medicines Management in Southport and Formby
In May 2017, LCFT expanded its portfolio of services to include community services in
Southport and Formby. Quarterly storage of medication audits quickly identified concerns
with facilities for and standards of medication storage. LCFT governance processes also
uncovered gaps in the governance of NMPs within the locality. The Deputy and Lead
Pharmacist, Chief Pharmacy Technician, Medicines Management Nurse, Non-Medical
Prescribing Lead and Education and Training Lead have all been supporting clinical teams
and the network management team to improve medicines management practices. This has
been delivered within existing staffing establishment and without additional resources.
Moving forward, due diligence reviews need to include medicines management processes,
standards and resource to support safe delivery of services
Medicines Management in HMP Liverpool
Whilst CQC and HMIP inspections have noted the significant progress made in medicines
management practices within HMP Liverpool since contract commencement, an internal
quality visit and incident reports highlighted concerns with the prison estate, medicines
administration errors, expired medicines, privacy and dignity during the medicines
administration process and lack of support from prison officers to staff who are administering
medicines. Actions are underway in response to these concerns.
Performance in POMHUK audits
Performance in the national POMHUK medicines management audits has deteriorated in the
past 12 months prompting a review of approach. A pharmacy and medical lead are now
appointed for each audit. They are responsible for planning the audit, carrying out
necessary preparatory work, communicating with colleagues, ensuring comprehensive and
accurate data collection in identified teams and responding to results to ensure continual
quality improvement.
