As our staff, both frontline and support services have worked so hard to deal with the Covid-19 pandemic, we are once again reminded of their flexibility, innovation, resilience and total dedication to the health and wellbeing of local people. There are approximately 380,000 people living in the Southern Trust area – and potentially every one of these will at some time throughout the year need our help, for themselves, or a family member - in a hospital or community setting, or even in their own home. Indeed, every day our 13,612 employees go above and beyond for local people. Whilst we all recognise the ongoing challenges we face in health and social care, this report highlights some of our achievements throughout what has been another very busy year. You will read about the dedication of our staff to their patients, clients and community; how they strive to continually improve their services and in many cases excel in delivering high, quality care on a local, regional and national basis. 1 | P a g e Southern Health and Social Care Trust Annual Report & Accounts 2020 This year we celebrated the completion of two key developments, the £1 million Direct Assessment Unit at Daisy Hill Hospital and the £3.37 million Aseptic Suite at Craigavon. Developed through the Daisy Hill Pathfinder Project, the Direct Assessment Unit is having a really positive impact. Helping 2,871 patients in its first year, the team are treating people who need urgent medical attention but are not critically ill, freeing up time and space in the Emergency Department for those who need immediate life-saving care. The £3.37 million Aseptic Suite at Craigavon Hospital is located beside the Macmillan Building. The state-of- the-art unit is used for the preparation of highly specialised medications like chemotherapy. The building is known as the ‘McWilliams Suite’ in memory of our pharmacy colleague, Gillian McWilliams who sadly passed away from cancer a number of years ago. Of course our staff are our greatest asset and this year, there has been a real focus on developing our workforce. To mark International Nurses Day in May, we launched our Nursing and Midwifery Action Plan which aims to address some of the challenges facing nursing and midwifery into the future. In June, we celebrated our annual Excellence Awards which is always a lovely opportunity to recognise and celebrate staff who provide outstanding care and support for patients, clients and their families. Dr Kathryn Boyd, Consultant Haematologist, was announced as Overall Winner after also receiving the ‘People’s Choice - Award for Outstanding Care and Compassion’. Also in June, we were delighted that our acute hospital network (Craigavon Area and Daisy Hill) was yet again named amongst the top 40 hospitals in the UK. This award recognises that the Southern Trust is providing high quality care and treatment in our hospitals and it is a real credit to our staff, despite the growing demands and continued challenges they face every day, that they are clearly making a huge difference to hundreds of thousands of patients. In November, we were delighted to team up with Newry, Mourne and Down District Council to host our first major careers event which was a huge success. Around 1,000 young people from local post primary schools, the Southern Regional College and general public, attended the event to see and experience the wide range of career opportunities available across the Trust. We had another very busy winter period this year, along with the challenges of industrial action from November through to January, when we welcomed the commitment of our new Health Minister and Executive to address the ongoing workforce issues. In February we were delighted to welcome Minister Robin Swann on his first visit to the Southern Trust. The Minster met Trust Board members and staff side representatives on the Craigavon site before visiting the Bluestone Unit, the Emergency Department and the Respiratory Ward to speak with these teams and learn about their work. 2 | P a g e Southern Health and Social Care Trust Annual Report & Accounts 2020 Throughout the year we received great support from the local community and service users and thanks to such generosity, the Trust has benefitted from £224,195 in voluntary donations. These contributions help us to buy additional equipment and comforts to enhance quality of care and patient and client experience right across our services. On behalf of all of our staff, we thank everyone who has made such donations. As an organisation, we also want to give back to our local community and our very generous staff whole heartedly embraced our 2018-2020 Charity Partnership with PIPS Upper Bann and PIPS Hope and Support. In total we raised £50,269 over the two years for these fantastic organisations through a range of events like raffles, coffee mornings, sponsored activities and a gala ball. We have always enjoyed effective partnership working with the community and voluntary sector, councils, other agencies and elected representatives. The strength of these relationships has never been more evident than during the current pandemic. We sincerely thank all of these partners, who along with colleagues from other health and social care organisations have worked tirelessly to support our own staff and protect the broader population. What we have achieved by all working together at this time has been so impressive. We have learned many lessons that we will use as we aim to recover services and as we strive to improve the health and wellbeing outcomes of our local population into the future. Roberta Brownlee, MBE Shane Devlin Chair Chief Executive 3 | P a g e Southern Health and Social Care Trust Annual Report & Accounts 2020 Trust Purpose and Activities The Southern Health and Social Care Trust is an integrated health and social care Trust with an annual budget of £810m employing 13,612 (11,228 whole time equivalent) staff and managing an estate worth £299m.

  • October 2014
    Consultation Document Future Provision of Hospital Services for Older People Consultation from 12th June 2014 until Friday 31st October 2014 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Trust is committed to supporting older people to live as long as possible in their own homes, living independent lives and being able to choose how their needs are met. We are now caring for more older people at home with the support of a range of community teams and services and making best use of the latest technology. We want to ensure that when older people do need hospital care, that they are able to quickly access care in a hospital environment that is high quality, delivered in an appropriate setting by a team of compassionate, respectful and expert health professionals with access to all the necessary diagnostics, specialist knowledge and treatment. Currently, the Trust provides hospital care for older people at Craigavon Area Hospital, Daisy Hill Hospital, Lurgan Hospital and Loane House (South Tyrone Hospital). Patients admitted to Craigavon or Daisy Hill will have the support of teams of specialist staff; access to a range of diagnostic services; and have 24 hour pharmacy and laboratory support available. In Lurgan Hospital and Loane House, which are small stand- alone units, there is not the same immediate access to all of these services. This means that if a patient’s condition deteriorates they have to be transferred from these hospitals, usually to Craigavon Area Hospital, for assessment, diagnostics and treatment which can be distressing and upsetting for older patients and their families. It is also becoming increasingly difficult to maintain the right level of medical cover at evenings and weekends at Lurgan and Loane House.

  • Annual Quality Report
    Annual Quality Report 2018/19 Annual Quality Report Annual Quality Report 2018/19 Chief Executive Foreword Messages from Chief Executive - DRAFT I am delighted to introduce the 7th Annual Quality Report for Southern Trust, which highlights some of the fantastic work which is underway across the Southern area and includes the key quality indicators against which we are measured. The launch of Quality 2020 by the Department of Health in 2011 described quality as excellence in safety; effectiveness and ensuring a patient & client focus on the work which we do. During 2018/19 we’ve continued to ensure we focus on all these aspects of quality and indeed how we further embed improvement of services across the Southern area. We’ve been delighted to receive transformation funding in 2018/19 to support us to develop new and innovative ways to transform how we deliver care. This will support us to address the increasing demands which we face across both acute and community services and look forward to seeing the impact that these initiatives make to local lives. We have achieved much in 2018/19 including the opening of the Direct Assessment Unit at Daisy Hill Hospital, also the opening of ‘Willows’, Maternity Bereavement Suite at Craigavon Area Hospital and relatives rooms for intensive care patients at our acute hospitals. Indeed, we are delighted that again in 2018/19 our acute hospital network was recognised at the CHKS UK Top Hospitals Awards. I would like to acknowledge the dedication of all our staff to their patients and clients, how they strive to continually improve their services and in many cases excel in delivering high, quality care on a local, regional and national basis.
