Background to commissioning study
• Drivers – Inception of YNN • Embraced supply & demand issues• Maximised limited resource availability• Partnership and collective protocols• Limited consultation and participation with parents• National Patient & Parent Involvement (PPI) DH
• Engaging with service users provide first indicators of parental perceptions of care & mark progress made
by YNN to date
![Page 5: Families' Perceptions & Experiences Of Neonatal Care Delivery Within The Yorkshire Neonatal Network –What are they? Gwynn Bissell- Yorkshire Neonatal Network.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062713/56649cc45503460f9498d013/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• Paucity in specific or exploratory literature of neonatal service users in the UK’s neonatal networks
• Quality of care measured by using family’s judgement of what may be deemed satisfactory or unsatisfactory neonatal care- used as health outcomes
• Defining quality of care & suggesting what is of significance to families offers a more authentic and improved service may prevail
Why the Study?
![Page 6: Families' Perceptions & Experiences Of Neonatal Care Delivery Within The Yorkshire Neonatal Network –What are they? Gwynn Bissell- Yorkshire Neonatal Network.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062713/56649cc45503460f9498d013/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The evidence what does it say?
• Limited consultation & participation across Neonatal Networks despite the benefits- BLISS UK National Parental Involvement Study-2007
• Benefits- Knowledge generation, effective resource and service delivery, improved family integration, indicators of or targeting of improvements in care quality- Ygge and Arnetz (2001)
• Perceptions-Consumer and service provider views not translate the same
Conner and Nelson (1999)-
• Family visiting- Reid et al (1995) • Neonatal transfers- Hegedus and Madden (1994) • Consumer perspectives of care- significance of fostering greater
partnerships and long term relationships with NICU parents- Fowlie and McHaffie (2004),
Bloomfield et al (2005), McAllister and Dionne (2006)
![Page 7: Families' Perceptions & Experiences Of Neonatal Care Delivery Within The Yorkshire Neonatal Network –What are they? Gwynn Bissell- Yorkshire Neonatal Network.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062713/56649cc45503460f9498d013/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The literature to guide design of project..
• Studies- Concept satisfaction consistently multi-dimensional and measured
along a period of time
• Methods- Interviews questionnaires and focus groups service user satisfaction-
experience
• Tool- Predominantly questionnaire developed for specific data collection
encompass host of aspects of care
Design- Individual study aims and purposes-satisfaction, improving FCC or
developing potentially better practices
• Target- Independent distribution, interviewer administered, postal/ telephone
survey NIPS-Mitchell-Dicenso et al (1996), Parent Feedback- Blacklington et al (1995),
Picker Institute Inpatient NICU- Picker (2005)

What did the Network want to discover?
• Understand the service users reality of care within the YNN
• Identify deficiencies or disparity in care and highlight practice of Excellence in care
• Able to offer potential solutions to improve care within the Network’s NNU’s-reducing dissatisfaction amongst consumer population
• Long term to develop strategies with parents to subsequently improve care for families in the future

Ethical approval
• No significant risk involved
• Approval of local research and development and COREC multi-centre research in 12 NNU/SCBU
• Questionnaires coded prior to analysis
![Page 10: Families' Perceptions & Experiences Of Neonatal Care Delivery Within The Yorkshire Neonatal Network –What are they? Gwynn Bissell- Yorkshire Neonatal Network.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062713/56649cc45503460f9498d013/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Design ….
• Phase 1• Questionnaire• Within NNU experience• Completed
• Phase 2• Focus group after discharge home• Not commenced• Resources, managerial change,
Network refocus• BUT • Baseline quality of care-indicator
of parental readiness to be involved
• Choose the method of future parental involvement to become a service user- parent led Network- options tested focus/support groups and parents reporting to Strategy Board
![Page 11: Families' Perceptions & Experiences Of Neonatal Care Delivery Within The Yorkshire Neonatal Network –What are they? Gwynn Bissell- Yorkshire Neonatal Network.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062713/56649cc45503460f9498d013/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Method
• Descriptive Quantitative Design approach
• Questionnaire tool developed from reviewed literature, “service-experienced” and “lay person’s” understanding
• Piloted from Support Groups and recent families with NNU graduates
• Encompassed 9 domains:- Transport, Communication and Visiting, Care, Decision-Making/Participation, Support, Education and Information, Preparation for Discharge Home, Facilities, and Yorkshire Neonatal Network Experience.
• Data statistically analysed via SPSS version 13 software, offering descriptive statistics. Limited content analysis required for open ended questions

“ The Neonatal Units of the future must offer supportive and good quality care; by making families welcome a more positive experience may be created. It is also
paramount that families are kept informed, and by the health professional remaining considerate to the
families’ needs they will be helped to become a whole family unit”

• How do we keep the momentum and monitor these parental needs or developments and yet keep a breast of a majority rather than a minority of parents
• Critical to choose the method of future parental involvement to ensure service user- parent led Network
![Page 30: Families' Perceptions & Experiences Of Neonatal Care Delivery Within The Yorkshire Neonatal Network –What are they? Gwynn Bissell- Yorkshire Neonatal Network.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062713/56649cc45503460f9498d013/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Action plan
• Provide greater understanding of the families’ needs
• Improve channels of communication and greater engagement with parents in decision making and offering of informed choice
• Increased flexibility of visiting particularly with grandparents, children and relatives who travel long distances
• Earlier transfers back to home units where possible
• More flexible education and information opportunities delivered at critical times by experienced health professionals
• Service user involvement through focus groups and questionnaires to map long-term perceptions and involvement in service modifications
