PROPOSED AIMS FOR QUALITY STRATEGY? 1.To make NHS Scotland a world leader in healthcare quality. 2.To do so in a way that is meaningful to all.

KEY MESSAGES Not ‘just another strategy’ Not top down imposition Integrated rather than additional A development of Better Health Better Care – not a replacement Built on shared values For the whole of the NHS, our partners and for the public

WHAT PEOPLE SEE AS HIGH QUALITY HEALTHCARE? caring and compassionate health services; collaborating effectively with clinicians, patients and others; confidence and trust in health services; providing a clean and safe care environment; improving the access to care and continuity of care; delivering clinical excellence

The aim is to get out in front; Some foundations

Work to do…

Ageing Population Health inequalities Economic position Changing expectations THE CONTEXT

The Right Time? Everyone working in or with NHSScotland is already committed to providing high quality healthcare Demographic, resource and cultural context combine to create clear drivers and a unique challenge/opportunity We know that marginal changes will not create the scale of change required NHSScotland particularly well placed, through its structures, values and through the foundations already in place to take action and achieve these aims, positioning it amongst the best in the world.

The perfect storm? Where values and expectations align

THE QUALITY STRATEGY What people have said… A unique and important opportunity for all of us to work together to make our NHS even better, for everyone. We all need to understand what our respective expectations, roles and responsibilities are, and make a shared commitment to take the action required of each of us to make the changes needed to ensure that our NHS delivers the very best quality healthcare for us all, now and into the future.

How will we do it?

PROPOSED APPROACH Person-centred : beyond shared decision making – i.e. relationship-based care in the very fabric of every interaction (Every Person Every Time). Clinically effective : with a focus on reducing unnecessary variation in delivering care and treatment, and in support for managing long term conditions Safety : throughout primary, mental and acute services achieving significant reductions in adverse events Efficient, timely and equitable integrated

Secure the improvements which have been delivered through the success of the Patient Safety Programme, and 2. Roll out across other areas of NHS activity support integrated programme of action to reduce occurrence of HAI

IMPLEMENTATION - APPROACH Overarching and integrating approach – NOT additional Bottom up – will be achieved through the accumulation of ‘excellent’ interactions, every person every time

It can be done… “ NHS Scotland has undertaken a bold, comprehensive, and scientifically grounded programme to improve patient safety. The dedication of NHS leadership at all levels to this endeavor is apparent to me, and bodes well for success. In its scale and ambition, the Scottish Patient Safety Programme marks Scotland as leader – second to no nation on earth – in its commitment to reducing harm to patients dramatically and continually.” Don Berwick June 2008 Will people say the same about our Quality Strategy?

NEXT STEPS Launch draft Strategy Document – Oct ‘09 Engage in discussion/consultation - Oct/Nov ‘09 (NHS events 19/21) Launch Quality Strategy Jan’10 Detailed collaboration and consultation about ‘bottom-up’ implementation, building on successful local and national approaches – Jan’10 onwards Launch Communications Strategy – Jan ’10 Establish approach to ensuring alignment in workforce development, policy, governance, measurement etc

QUESTIONS Do you agree that this is the right thing to do - why? How would you describe high quality healthcare ? Do you think these are the right drivers to use and initial areas to focus on? What are the hurdles/risks, how do we mitigate against them and what do we need to stop doing? What do we need to do first? What do you think success would look like, and what measures should we pursue to report progress? Do we need to be explicit about the need to embed efficiency, equity and access, and how do we achieve this?

Questions for Quality measures What do you think about this general 3-tier approach to measures of quality (person-centred, safe, effective from patient, staff and system perspective)? What type of measures should we use to report progress at the high /outcome level? How should they relate to the National Outcomes/Government Purpose What type of measures are appropriate at the Intermediate /output level? For improvement? How should they relate to HEAT targets? Do we need to agree a core set of local/short term activity/output measures, or should these be for local determination? Do we have the information required to inform these measures/targets and indicators? If not – how do we establish it? Do we need to stop collecting other data? Do we need to be explicit about the need to embed efficiency, equity and access in the Quality Strategy by developing appropriate measures at each level? How do we achieve this?
