What has been happening to demand in 2010/11?• Referrals have gone up in 2/3 <strong>of</strong> PCTs• Trends in referrals and out patient activity are notalways correlated!• Almost universal shift from elective IPs to Day Cases• Only 5 PCTs have reduced total elective activity• Only 2 PCTs have reduced non elective activity• The North West has a sizeable gap between our “plans”and actual delivery


Some Important Principles• “Managing Demand” should mean meeting needs in the mosteffective, efficient and patient centred way… not denying access• Existing incentives (in particular PbR) encourage growth in activity–we need to test new approaches• Better ‘integration”• between sectors• between commissioners and providers• Between providers and patientsis key to a more effective management <strong>of</strong> demand• Reduction in demand needs to result in reductions in capacity andconsequent reductions in cost for both commissioners and providersrs


<strong>End</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Life</strong> <strong>Care</strong>• Estimated that hospital admissions in the lastyear <strong>of</strong> life for adults cost the NHS £1.3 billion• By delivering improved recognition <strong>of</strong> palliativecare needs, as well as optimised provision <strong>of</strong>hospital services outside hospital setting couldreduce hospital deaths by approx. 60,000 perannum by 2021.• Using the QIPP estimate <strong>of</strong> £3,000 per hospitaldeath translates to a potential reduction inhospital costs <strong>of</strong> £180 million per annum.


• NHS Operating Framework (England) 2011/12 –“the NHS should continue to ensureimplementation <strong>of</strong> the <strong>End</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Life</strong> <strong>Care</strong> <strong>Strategy</strong>,working to <strong>of</strong>fer patients the choice <strong>of</strong> where tobe cared for as they approach the end <strong>of</strong> life,and where to die, regardless <strong>of</strong> their condition”.Focus on % deaths at home.• NW quality vision – aim for a 10% reduction inhospital deaths through better EoLC planning;reducing emergency admissions in the lastmonth <strong>of</strong> life


How?• Locality registers• Six steps to success – programme for carehomes• GP practices – GSF• Routes to success – in end <strong>of</strong> life care –achieving quality in acute hospitals

Living well and dying well


<strong>National</strong> Facts And FiguresThere is a major discrepancy between people’s preferences for where they should die and theirplace <strong>of</strong> death• 500,000 people die in England each year.•This will rise to around 530,000 by 2030•Most would prefer to die at home•Only around 18% do so with a further 17% in care homes•Acute hospitals accounting for 58% <strong>of</strong> all deaths•Around 4% in hospices•Only around one third <strong>of</strong> general public have discussed death and dying withanyone• 700,000 people have dementia and 1/3 live in a care home


<strong>End</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Life</strong> <strong>Care</strong> <strong>Strategy</strong> 20084.39“GoodPCT’s working with local authorities will wish to commission services from carehomes which:• Residents approaching the end <strong>of</strong> life are on an end <strong>of</strong> life care register• Each resident is <strong>of</strong>fered a care plan, which clearly identifies their tneeds andpreferences for care• Staff receive the training and support they need to provide end <strong>of</strong> life care• There is a appropriate access to GP, District nursing and specialist palliative careadvice”DOH, 2008, <strong>End</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Life</strong> <strong>Care</strong> <strong>Strategy</strong> p95

Do care homes have thesupport they need?A 2009 study into the provision <strong>of</strong> goodend <strong>of</strong> life care in care homesdemonstrated that delivery <strong>of</strong> good qualityend-<strong>of</strong>-life care in care homes requires aneffective balance <strong>of</strong> external support, andinternal resources.


more work is needed to enable integration<strong>of</strong> nursing homes into the wider systems <strong>of</strong>end <strong>of</strong> life care and to enablecollaboration across organizational,institutional and funding boundaries sothat patients receive a better quality <strong>of</strong> end<strong>of</strong> life care regardless <strong>of</strong> the care setting inwhich they are located. ‘Jane E Seymour, Arun Kumar andKatherine Froggatt (2009)


Why support care homes• Fits with the <strong>End</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Life</strong> <strong>Care</strong> <strong>Strategy</strong> identifying the need fora cultural shift in attitude & behaviour across the health &social care workforce.• 10% reduction in inappropriate hospital deaths ( North WestHealthier Horizons 2008)• Provide stronger partnerships between the NHS and theindependent care sector• Address the key components <strong>of</strong> <strong>End</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Life</strong> <strong>Care</strong> education tosupport care homes in providing end <strong>of</strong> life care i.e ACP,communication skills & LCP• Improving equity <strong>of</strong> quality end <strong>of</strong> life care for allirrespective <strong>of</strong> care setting
