This document contains proposals for the future provision of health services for the people of Argyll and Clyde. It is based on a set of seven key principles – safety, sustainability, quality, affordability, integration, access and timeliness. 2. A clear plan for health services in NHS Argyll & Clyde is necessary to help tackle both the pressures that health services across Scotland and the UK are experiencing generally and those that apply to the particular circumstances of Argyll and Clyde. These pressures mean that we are unable to sustain the current way in which we provide health services in Argyll and Clyde. If we do not address these pressures effectively, there is a real danger that services will fail and that a poorer quality of service with much diminished access will result. 3. As part of this process of developing a clear plan for the future, we have talked with, and listened to, a great many people from across Argyll and Clyde. These have included patients, carers, people in local communities, our partners and our staff. The proposals contained in this consultation paper are based on these discussions and on the work that took place in the many workshops and meetings across Argyll and Clyde over a period of eight months. We have also looked carefully at professional standards and advice and taken these into account in our proposals. 4. Five overall themes emerged in our discussions, reflecting the views of public, patients and staff about the health services we should provide. These included the wish of patients and carers to be treated as equal partners in the healthcare process, the importance of better access to care and how these, and other improvements, could be achieved through building on the patient pathway approach. Maximising care in local communities and making sure of continued access to high quality acute services were also highlighted. This paper contains proposals for service redesign to deliver the improved services that people told us they wanted to see. 5. We need to change the way in which our health services are provided to meet the aspirations of patients and public. We believe we can do this through developing primary care, introducing intermediate care models more widely and building a healthcare network across Argyll and Clyde. But before we can do this, we must make sure our services are stable. 6. This paper contains our proposals to provide services that are safe, sustainable and of high quality. In some cases this means significant change to the current pattern of services. We propose to maintain our main acute hospital sites although we will have to change some services to do this. We intend to provide additional services as we shift the emphasis of care from institutional to community-based care for older people, people with a mental health problem or with a learning disability. 7. We propose to develop services at the Royal Alexandra Hospital as the major acute hospital for Argyll and Clyde. This will include the major accident and emergency department networked to other emergency services across the area. We have outlined the options for the provision of services in the Inverclyde and Lomond areas to provide as many services as possible locally. We will work with Page 4 NHS Argyll & Clyde Consultation paper local communities in Argyll and Bute to develop health services for remote and rural services. 1 Page 5 NHS Argyll & Clyde Consultation document Contents 1. Introduction 2. The need for change 3. Redesign of services and working practice 4. Modernisation and reform of services and infrastructure 5. How to give us your views Glossary References Page 6 NHS Argyll & Clyde Consultation paper 2 Page 7 NHS Argyll & Clyde Consultation paper 1. Introduction This paper describes NHS Argyll & Clyde’s plans for future health services in our area. When making these plans we need to consider the geography of Argyll and Clyde, the kind of communities we live in, and projected changes to the population of Argyll and Clyde. We also need to take into account the views of the 418,000 people in Argyll and Clyde whom we serve, and the staff who provide the services. In doing this, we must have a view to the future and our responsibilities to the next generation of service users, to local communities and to our staff. Since October 2003 we have been talking with people across Argyll and Clyde to hear their views about the development of our NHS. These discussions have been with members of the public, politicians (MSPs and MPs) and local councillors, as well as many of our staff, patients, carers, advocacy groups and other organisations, both statutory and independent. More than 4000 people have been directly involved so far in these discussions. We have listened carefully to what we have been told over the last eight months by patients, the public, staff and partners. People want healthcare services that work better together to meet their needs as fully as possible. They want assurance that the healthcare services they use are consistently of high quality. They want to be able to rely on their services, and be reassured that the services they require will be available to them when they need them. This paper describes, therefore, not simply an acute services strategy but covers all healthcare services for the people of Argyll and Clyde. Neither does it suggest short term or quick “fixes” that would only mask underlying challenges and problems. Instead, we have outlined the tough decisions that need to be made both now and into the future. 1.1 Key principles It was also clear from the discussions we have had over the past eight months that some principles must shape the future design of services. Taken together, these principles provide us with a robust framework within which to develop the Clinical Strategy. They are: Safe services A service is safe when we can be confident that the care provided by our staff compares well against national standards and that, for most people, the expected health outcomes will be achieved. We are confident that all the proposals in this plan are consistent with this view on safety.

  • Director of Public Health's Annual Report Looks at the Challenges Ahead
    Team Update Issue 74 November 2010 www.nhshighland.scot.nhs.uk Director of Public Health’s Annual Report looks at the challenges ahead Alcohol misuse, smoking and obesity are major public health challenges facing NHS Highland, according to the first annual report from its Director of Public Health. Dr Margaret Somerville’s report also highlights the increasing number of older people in the local population and the corresponding increase in the number of people living with long- term conditions, such as hypertension, depression, asthma, coronary heart disease, diabetes and cancer. And it looks at lessons learned from last year’s influenza pandemic and explains that a major challenge for the future will be preparing and planning for climate change. Dr Somerville, (pictured top right) who took up the post in February of this year, points out that the health service, along with the rest of the public sector, still has to deal with these issues at a time when their budget is under increasing pressure. She said: “This report reflects my own observations about the health of people in NHS Highland in my first few months in post and the major challenges that lie ahead if we are to continue improving health and closing the gap between the best and worst off in society. “With the prospect of real cuts in spending on health over the next few years, it is more important than ever that we do not lose sight of the long-term health improvement work through which we hope to contain and reduce health service use and cost.” Dr Somerville explained that the population of NHS Highland had increased by more than 5% over the last 10 years and was predicted to increase by a further 10% over the next 20 years, with the number of people aged over 75 more than doubling in the same period.

Chief Officer Argyll and Bute Health and Social Care Partnership It is with much regret to report that Christina West has resigned from the post of Chief Officer for Argyll and Bute Health and Social Care Partnership with a leaving date of 30th September 2018.

She embraced the Highland Quality Approach and has been an invaluable member of NHS Highland’s Senior Leadership team. The recruitment process is underway to secure a new Chief Officer.

  • Strategic Plan 2019/20 – 2021/22
    PEOPLE IN ARGYLL AND BUTE WILL LIVE LONGER, HEALTHIER INDEPENDENT LIVES Strategic Plan 2019/20 – 2021/22 FOREWORD FROM OUR CHIEF OFFICER Welcome to the Argyll & Bute Health and Social Care Partnership’s second Strategic Plan. Our previous plan supported us to continue to deliver your services during a challenging period of change, whilst ensuring that we maintained the focus on supporting the people of Argyll & Bute to lead long, healthy and independent lives. Over the next three years we will build on the success of bringing a multi-disciplinary team of health and social care staff together with a continuing focus on integrated services and practices. We are working with staff to progress a shared understanding of best practices and importantly develop a new health and social care practice that will allow us to deliver services that protect and keep people safe. As a rural health and social care partnership, our geography and demographic can at times be perceived as challenging but it should also be perceived as an opportunity to develop innovative community based practices throughout health and social care. We are seeking best practices in rural medicine and social care and are seeking to innovate with the independent and third sector to strengthen and enhance the breadth of service delivery in our remote and rural areas. We are also actively working with our key partners, NHS Highland and Argyll & Bute Council, to plan a workforce that will support Argyll & Bute’s population and the diverse range of health and social care needs. We continue to support the approach of ‘right service, right place and right time’ to ensure that Argyll & Bute residents are able to access the range of health and social care services they require.
