    Learning from Trusted to Care ONE YEAR ON Digital ISBN 978 1 4734 4620 5 © Crown Copyright 2015 Foreword by Dr Ruth Hussey and Professor Jean White Over the last twelve months the Steering Group has considered the Trusted to Care Report and its recommendations, as well as the learning from the unannounced spot checks visits. The Steering Group was keen to ensure the work taken forward to address the issues raised was on an all Wales basis to make sure whole system change was achieved. Much good work has been achieved but we must now maintain this momentum and drive further improvements to ensure the very best care is provided to all our frail and older people, when ever that care is required and where ever it is being provided. The Steering Group is making some recommendations to ensure this happens. 1 Learning from Trusted to Care – one year on Report from the Steering Group Background The Minister for Health and Social Services commissioned a review into the care being provided for older people at the Princess of Wales and Neath Port Talbot Hospitals towards the end of 2013. This followed significant concerns raised with the Minister about poor standards of care in the two hospitals. Professor June Andrews, director of Dementia Services Development Centre at the University of Stirling and Mark Butler, director of the People Organisation undertook this review between December 2013 and April 2014. The Minister published their report1 in full on 13 May 2014, and made clear this was a report for the whole of Wales.

  • Trusted to Care - 2015 Review
    Trusted to Care - 2015 Review Professor June Andrews - Director, Dementia Services Development Centre, University of Stirling Mark Butler – Director, The People Organisation Ltd. August 2015 Trusted to Care – 2015 Review An Independent Assessment of Progress 1 Introduction The Trusted to Care Report published in May 2014 set out the conclusions of a review of aspects of care and practice at the Princess of Wales and Neath Port Talbot Hospitals, which form part of Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health Board (ABMU). It made fourteen recommendations for improving the care of frail older people in those hospitals, together with a further four recommendations to address wider issues raised by the review for action by the Welsh Government. www.gov.wales/topics/health/publications/health/reports/care/?lang=en 2 Trusted to Care Trusted to Care identified what needed to happen to achieve acceptable standards of quality and safety. The recommendations, taken together, provided a road-map for the ABMU Board to follow, setting out a series of clearly-identified actions which were required to resolve the main underlying problems of clinical and organisational practice. In some areas the action was to be taken immediately; in others action was required to be completed within one year of publication of the report. Mark Drakeford, AM, Minister for Health and Social Services in the Welsh Government, decided that all the recommendations should be fully implemented as a single package within the year from May 2014. This report provides an objective assessment of whether this requirement has been achieved in respect of ABMU. It does not cover the recommendations relating to the Welsh Government itself as this was not part of the work we were commissioned to undertake.

  • Public Policy Statement Health Services and the NHS May 2016
    Public Policy Statement Health Services and the NHS May 2016 Summary The population in Wales has the highest proportion of older people in the UK and health services need to adapt and respond to the fact that more people are living longer, often with chronic conditions. Older people are the main adult users of most health and care services. From education and training to the organisation of care, however, the NHS and health services often do not appear to be designed with older people in mind. Older people, wherever they live, should have free and fair access to health and care services that maintain and promote their physical, spiritual and mental health, treat illness and support those living with chronic conditions. This principle applies to all older people whether they are in their own homes, in care homes or in hospitals. Health services should be designed to support people’s well-being and independence, but our NHS too often appears to be set up purely to treat illness on a ‘condition-specific’ basis with a goal of ‘curing disease’, rather than focusing on needs of the person in an holistic manner. The prevalence of chronic conditions increases with age. Two-thirds of the population of Wales aged 65 or over report having at least one chronic condition, while one-third report having multiple chronic conditions1. The Auditor General’s 2008 report2 on the management of chronic conditions concluded that too many patients with chronic conditions were treated in an unplanned way in acute hospitals, accounting for one in six of all emergency medical conditions.
