This paper is a mandated requirement to provide an annual update to the Board within the context of the Framework of Quality Assurance for Responsible Officers and Revalidation published by NHS England in April 2014. LINK TO 20/20 vision The Strategic goals this paper relates to are: 1. Safe, effective, quality patient care. 4. Be the provider, employer and partner of choice ACTION REQUIRED BY BOARD The Board of Directors is also asked to approve the ‘Statement of Compliance’ confirming that Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation as a designated body is in compliance with the statutory regulations to be signed by the CE. 1.0 Executive Summary 1.1 Revalidation is the process by which the General Medical Council will confirm the continuation of a doctor’s license to practise in the UK. 1.2 Its purpose is to assure patients and the public, employers and other healthcare professionals that licensed doctors are up to date and fit to practise. 2.0 Introduction 2.1 The Medical Profession (Responsible Officers] Regulations 2010 (and as amended 2013 ) and GMC (License to Practice and Revalidation) Regulations 2012, set out the statutory responsibilities of Responsible Officers for each Designated body 2.2 Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust is a ‘Designated body’ under these regulations and the Executive Medical Director is the Trust’s Responsible Officer. The Responsible Officer makes the recommendations to the GMC on behalf of the ‘Designated body.’ 2.3 Revalidation started on 3 December 2012 and it is anticipated that the majority of licensed doctors will by revalidated for the first time by 2016. 3.0 Report Requirements. 3.1 Revalidation recommendations are based on successful completion of: a) Annual medical appraisal (as set out in the Medical Appraisal Guide model form); b) At least one 360 degree (patient & colleague) feedback in a 5 year cycle. c) Royal College of Psychiatrists requirements such as evidence of participation in audit and case based discussion on an annual basis (the requirements are set out in College report 172). Revalidation is on a 5 year basis on the assumption that those revalidated will continue to fulfil their annual medical appraisal obligations over the said period. 3.2 The Responsible officer has three options available in making the revalidation recommendation: a) To recommend revalidation; b) To ask for a deferral; c) To inform the GMC of non-engagement in appraisal* * Non-engagement can potentially result in the GMC withdrawing a doctor’s license to practise through the administrative removal route. 3.3 The revalidation of trainee doctors is the statutory responsibility of the relevant Deaneries and their successor bodies such as HE-KSS. The Trust as a Local Education Provider plays a significant role in the process nevertheless. Performance Monitoring 3.4 In 2014/15 the Trust had a prescribed connection to 233 medical practitioners. 3.5 In 2014/15 the Trust made 90 positive revalidation recommendations and 11 deferrals to the GMC. (Please see appendix for breakdown of deferral reasons.) The number of recommendations was in keeping with GMC mandated scheduling which is as follows. 2013/14: 23% of doctors with a prescribed connection 2014/15: 40% of doctors with a prescribed connection 2015/16: 37% of doctors with a prescribed connection 3.6 In 2014/15 overall 80.6% of all doctors with a prescribed connection completed their annual appraisal with the prescribed timeframe. 3.7 Of the 46 doctors who had not completed their appraisals at the end of March 2015 all but 6 doctors have now completed their appraisals as at early July 2015. 3.8 Of these 6 doctors, 4 have now had the appraisal meeting and are awaiting sign-off, 1 is on long-term sick and 1 is about to have the appraisal meeting. Governance 3.10 The Trust as a Designated body is statutorily obliged to provide the Responsible Officer with the resources required to provide the appraisal and governance infrastructure to support Revalidation and oversee the following: a) Monitoring the frequency and quality of medical appraisals; b) Checking there are effective systems in place for monitoring the conduct and performance of doctors; c) Confirming that feedback from patients is sought to inform appraisal and revalidation; d) Ensuring appropriate pre-employment background checks are carried out. 3.11 The Responsible Officer has completed and submitted an Annual Organisational Audit (AQA) to NHS South (May 2015) in accordance with National guidance. 3.12 The Statement of Compliance is attached to this paper for Board information and agreement. (Appendix 1) 3.13 The Executive Medical Director is supported in the Responsible Officer role by the Deputy Medical Director (Workforce Governance), the Revalidation Support Administrator, and his Executive Assistant. 3.14 In line with the regulation the Trust has trained 40 enhanced appraisers who have been assigned a number of appraisees they are responsible for appraising over the next 2/3 years. We have also provided for alternate appraisers in the circumstances that the originally assigned appraiser is suddenly unable to undertake the function. Additionally 5 colleagues have undergone Case Investigator training who can now assist in the clinical performance assessment in the cases where remediation might be required. 3.15 The Trust has a Medical Appraisal for Revalidation Policy which has had Equality and Human Rights Impact Analysis with no areas of concerns identified. 3.16 There is a Revalidation Delivery Group that meets monthly to address any operational challenges in the delivery of Revalidation compliant annual appraisal for all doctors.

    Autumn 2015 Membership Matters In this issue • Lunar cycle and expressions • Honouring a pioneer of human nature in mental health • Street Triage - joining forces • Alzheimer’s research on across Sussex verge of breakthrough The newsletter for members of Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust Welcome Dear Member, I would like to welcome you to the autumn edition of Membership Matters. It is also with great pleasure that I offer a warm welcome to our new Governors who were successful in the recent elections and who have now taken a seat on the Council. I hope you enjoy what is a challenging but exciting role within our organisation. In this edition, I’m sure you will be as thrilled as I am to read about the recognition we’re receiving for our award winning work, which is having a direct impact on the experience of our service users. We’re delighted to have four entries shortlisted for this year’s national Positive Practice in Mental Health Awards. The winners will be announced at a ceremony in October (see page 9 for more details). Also earning plaudits is our partnership work to support people when they’re at their most vulnerable, with our Stay Alive suicide prevention app receiving a prestigious Patient Safety Award (see page 8). Our ground-breaking research in the field of dementia took centre stage this summer with the release of drug data which suggests it could slow the advancement of early stage Alzheimer’s. We hope to hear of more positive developments on this in months to come.
