Clostridium Difficile Infections (CDI)

Post infection reviews are being undertaken on all cases of Clostridium Difficile within Rotherham. This will be a continual and reviewed process. The process will highlight any lapses in quality of care and any learning outcomes within both community and acute trusts. Any common themes will be addressed as identified.

[NB A ‘lapse in care’ - would be indicated by evidence that policies and procedures were not followed. The lack of compliance with this or any of the elements identified in ‘clostridium difficile infection objectives for NHS organisations in 2016/17 and guidance on sanction implementation’

(NHS England) checklist would not indicate the infection was caused by the lapse, but that best practice was not followed. The first and foremost aim is to learn any lessons necessary to continually improve patient safety.]

Post Infection Review (PIR) Meeting

Last meeting held on Wednesday 24th August, next meeting to be held on Thursday 26th October (N.B the September meeting was cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances.)

3 GP case has been highlighted as having ‘no lapse in care’

1 GP case has been deferred to the next meeting due to the complex nature of the case and requirement for further information.

7 GP cases await the PIR process.

1 STH inpatient case has been identified as having ‘lapse in care’ by STH themselves following their internal review. Having reviewed the RCA there is some probable environmental/ cross contamination. Learning outcomes and actions will be followed up by Sheffield CCG.

1 STH inpatient case has been identified as having ‘no lapse care’ by STH themselves following their internal review. This has been taken to the Sheffield CCG PIR meeting and discussed with agreement. Rotherham CCG has received this and also is in agreement.

1 STH case has not yet been forwarded to Rotherham following the investigation. Sheffield review cases on a quarterly basis.

3 TRFT cases have been identified as having ‘No lapse in care’, - 1 of these cases was declared as an SI but was subsequently delogged

1 TRFT case has been identified as having a ‘lapse in care’ relating to a delay in sample taking and infection detection.

1 TRFT case has not yet been discussed at the PIR meeting. It will be discussed at the next meeting.

The remaining cases, following completion of reviews, will be discussed at the next PIR meeting to determine any ‘lapse’ or ‘no lapse’ in care, with action taken as relevant and any themes recorded.

3 Care homes have had residents with C Diff infection. 1 appears to have had more than 1 case, This will be discussed at the forthcoming PIR meeting.

2. MORTALITY RATES

The most recent 12 month rolling HMSR to May 2016 is 98.81 which is within expected range and has been below 100 for the last five months reported. Whilst SHMI is now outside of the normal range it remains above 100 due to the older figures reported in the calculation SHMI is reported again at 105 as it is only recalculated on a quarterly basis. The crude rate of mortality continues to be reported as similar to last month with nearly 6000 admissions and discharges in the month of July.

The diagnosis groups which have triggered are being scrutinised by the TRFT Mortality and Quality Alerts group and work is on-going with these to determine where improvements can be made. Cancer of the colon mortality is still showing statistical significance with a higher than expected HSMR. A verbal assurance has been provided at the Trust’s mortality committee that there are no clinical concerns and a written report will follow.

19. ASSURANCE REPORTS

19.1 TRFT Update

A&E

The current month position as at 17th October was 85.00%, Q2 is at 92.31% and YTD is 91.19%. The September position ended at 92.76% and Q2 position ended at 92.2%. The contractual target was not achieved. The Sustainability and Transformation Plan target is to achieve 95% in March.

Contract performance meetings were held on 4 August and 26th September:

The key challenges are:

Demand

Manpower - Medical workforce

Discharge

System wide issues

A highlight report/action plan has been received which will be monitored through the contract and will be a monthly agenda item for the TRFT/RCCG Contract Performance Meeting. The highlight report has been shared with the A&E delivery board alongside actions to address increases in A&E attendances at GP practice level and children’s attendances.

Joint analysis of A&E attendances during the first 2 months of the year has shown that the majority (85%) of the increase in attendances can be accounted for by an increase in ambulance arrivals. Over 50% of these are the over 75s. The analysis was presented at the A&E delivery board on the 14 September, 2016. An update against the action plan was presented on 12 October.

Further work is being undertaken to understand the increase in ambulance arrivals and an A&E analysis action plan is being managed through the contract.

Cancer Standards

18 Weeks RTT and 52 Week Waits

Current performance as at August showed achievement of 93.44% against a target of the 92%. All specialties with the exception of Cardiology and Dermatology achieved the 92% target.

A remedial action plan is in progress for Cardiology and Dermatology to secure future delivery and improve the overall Trust position. Ophthalmology and Rheumatology are specialties under close watch by RCCG at there has been a >10% increase in +18 week waits.

The incomplete performance continues to deteriorate with the core issue being the deficit in capacity in a number of specialties. This deficit is also driving the challenges being experienced in waiting list increases for both new referrals and review patients who require a follow up. All of these issues are in turn largely driven be workforce challenges of both a short and medium/long term nature.

6ww Diagnostics

Current performance as at August showed achievement of 3.4% against a <1% target. Respiratory physiology - sleep studies, Flexi Sigmoidoscopy, Colonoscopy, Cystoscopy and Gastroscopy are not achieving the 1% target and the position in these areas has deteriorated since over the past few months.

Short and long term capacity solutions are being reviewed to recover performance.

APPENDIX 1 - LD MORTALITY REVIEW PILOT – Y&H

Dear Director of Nursing (Commissioning) Learning Disability Mortality Review (LeDeR) Pilot – Yorkshire and the Humber. I am writing to request your support in meeting the requirements of the national Learning Disability Mortality Review (LeDeR). The remit of the LeDeR Programme is primarily to support local areas to review the deaths of people with learning disabilities The LeDeR Programme has been established as a result of one of the key recommendations of the Confidential Enquiry into the premature deaths of people with learning disabilities (CIPOLD). Commissioned by the Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership (HQIP) on behalf of NHS England the LeDeR Programme supports local reviews of deaths of people with learning disabilities aged 4 to 74 across England. Where there are concerns about the sequence of events leading to their death, or it is felt that further learning could come from a review of a death, a full multi-agency review of the death is recommended. This is likely to be after discussion with other agencies (e.g. safeguarding boards, coroner’s officers, child death review process) to ensure that a coordinated approach is being taken. In reviewing these deaths, circumstances leading to a death could be identified and avoided in the future through improvements to health and care services. The LeDeR Programme also aims to capture best practice in the care and treatment of people with learning disabilities. To-date, following a wide consultation exercise we have agreed the process for local reviews of deaths of people with learning disabilities and the core data to be collected. A secure, web-based platform has been built to handle notifications of deaths and the local review process. All deaths of people with learning disabilities aged 4-74 will have an initial review of their death. It is important to stress that this review applies to all people with learning disabilities, not just those currently known to health and care services. Work is also taking place with community organisations and family / carer forums to notify them of the LeDeR Programme. This work forms part of the wider Transforming Care agenda and NHS England’s commitment to address health inequalities experienced by people with learning disabilities. The Transforming Care Programme focusses on addressing long-standing issues to ensure sustainable change that will see: more choice for people and their families, and more say in their care; providing more care in the community, with personalised support provided by multi-disciplinary

health and care teams ; more innovative services to give people a range of care options, with personal budgets, so that

care meets individuals’ needs; providing early more intensive support for those who need it, so that people can stay in the

community, close to home; but for those that do need in-patient care, ensuring it is only for as long as they need it. There is no funding available for this programme and expectation is that long term this will be embedded in day to day business.

In order to support the Yorkshire and the Humber Learning Disability Mortality Review Pilot, it is vital that the LeDeR team are notified of any deaths of people with learning disabilities in your organisation. Anyone is able to notify the LeDeR Programme of a death. We expect CCGs ensure that both they and their commissioned services start making notifications from the 1st November 2016. This can be done by telephone or via the LeDeR online portal. Telephone : 0300 777 4774 http://www.bristol.ac.uk/sps/leder/notify-a-death/ There is a data sharing agreement in place, approved by the Secretary of State to allow this to happen. We will send further details of this to your Caldicott Guardian and SiRO. Once a notification is made the LeDeR team will inform the local officer covering Yorkshire and Humber who will be responsible for liaising with your organisation to review the individual’s death and capturing the learning. Following discussion with Director of Nursing Colleagues across the Yorkshire and Humber footprint, Tom Raines, Learning Disability Project Manager, Yorkshire & Humber will be the Local Area Contact ([email protected]; 07918 368594). It is anticipated that as the Transforming Care Partnership Boards mature across all areas, each Board will soon nominate a Local Area Contact for you locally. The role of the Local Area Contact is to: • Receive notification of a death from LeDeR. • Allocate the case to a local reviewer and monitor the progress of the review. • Provide advice for the local reviewer if relevant. • Liaise with the Local Steering Group about any issues as appropriate. • Receive completed review documents and action plans once the review has been finished. • In conjunction with the Local Steering Group, take appropriate action to help improve the care of

people with learning disabilities (and their families) and reduce premature mortality in this population.

Additional materials on the LeDeR Programme are available on the University of Bristol website: http://www.bristol.ac.uk/sps/leder/. The local reviewer can be a health, social care or allied health professional. The role involves:

Attending a day’s training. Receiving notification of a death of a person with learning disabilities from their Local Area

Contact. Completing an initial review of this death using the web based LeDeR review system. Completing a further multiagency review of this death if required. Maintaining communication with the Local Area Contact and LeDeR Programme as appropriate

during the course of the review to update on progress and highlight any problems. Writing a report of the review and complete any associated action plan. Submitting the completed paperwork of the review to the Local Area Contact and the LeDeR

Programme In summary we request four things from you: 1) From the 1st of November your CCG and your commissioned services notifies the LeDeR

Programme should any patient with learning disabilities die whilst in your care. You will need to seek assurance, that your providers commit to this; via your contractual mechanisms.

2) Provide us with details of who will be your organisational contact for this programme. 3) Identify individuals who you would like to be trained as reviewers. 4) Ensure your Board/ Governing Body is sighted on the LeDerRP. We will be happy to lead the
