There is little evidence about these patients’ needs and the factors influencing their return to work. There is a paucity of guidance to help patients return to work after surgery and a need for structured occupational advice to enable them to return to work safely and effectively. Objective(s) To develop an occupational advice intervention to support early recovery to usual activities including work which is tailored to the requirements of patients undergoing hip and knee replacements. To test the acceptability, practicality and feasibility of this intervention within current care frameworks Design An intervention mapping (IM) approach was used to develop the intervention. The research methods employed were: rapid evidence synthesis; qualitative interviews with patients and stakeholders; prospective cohort study; survey of clinical practice; modified Delphi consensus process. The developed intervention was implemented and assessed during the final feasibility stage of the IM process. Setting Orthopaedic departments within NHS secondary care. Participants Patients in work, and intending to return to work following primary elective hip and knee replacement surgery; healthcare professionals and employers. Interventions Occupational advice intervention. Main outcome measures Development of an occupational advice intervention. Fidelity of the developed intervention when delivered in a clinical setting. Patient and clinician perspectives of the intervention. Preliminary assessments of intervention effectiveness and cost. Results A cohort study (154 patients), 110 stakeholder interviews, survey of practice (152 respondents) and evidence synthesis provided the necessary information to develop the intervention. The intervention included information resources, personalized return to work plan and co-ordination from the healthcare team to support the delivery of 13 patient and 20 staff performance objectives (POs). To support delivery, a range of tools (e.g. occupational checklists, patient workbooks, employer information), roles (e.g. return-to-work coordinator) and training resources were created. Feasibility was assessed in 21 of the 26 patients recruited from 3 NHS trusts. Adherence with the defined performance objectives was 75% for patient POs and 74% for staff POs. The intervention was generally well received although the short timeframe available for implementation and concurrent research evaluation led to some confusion amongst patients and those delivering the intervention regarding its purpose and the roles and responsibilities of key staff. Limitations Implementation and uptake of the intervention was not standardized and was limited by the study timeframe. Evaluation of the intervention involved a small number of patients which limited the ability to assess it. 3 Conclusions The developed occupational advice intervention supports best practice. Evaluation demonstrated good rates of adherence against defined performance objectives. However, a number of operational and implementation issues require further attention Future work The intervention warrants a randomised controlled trial to assess its clinical and cost effectiveness to improve rates and timing of sustained return to work after surgery. This research should include the development of a robust implementation strategy to ensure adoption is sustained.

This CFMP gives an overview of the flood risk in the East Suffolk catchment and sets out our preferred plan for sustainable flood risk management over the next 50 to 100 years. The East Suffolk CFMP is one of 77 CFMPs for England Tidal flooding can occur within rivers and estuaries. and Wales. Through the CFMPs, we have assessed inland There is a significant risk of tidal flooding in East Suffolk flood risk across all of England and Wales for the first because the coastal land and land around the estuaries is time. The CFMP considers all types of inland flooding, low-lying. Tidal flooding can occur from the River Gipping from rivers, ground water, surface water and tidal in the ports, docklands and some areas of Ipswich.

  • The House and Gardens of Combs Hall, Near Stowmarket
    THE HOUSE AND GARDENSOF COMBS HALL,NEAR STOWMARKET:A SURVEYBYTHE ROYALCOMMISSION ON THE HISTORICAL MONUMENTS OF ENGLAND byEDWARD MARTINI andALASTAIR OSWALD2 IN MARCH 1994 the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England (R.C.H.M.E.) surveyed the earthwork remains of the gardens of Combs Hall at the request of the Archaeology Section of Suffolk County Council. The remains lie adjacent to the Church of St Mary at Combs, near Stovvmarket, in central Suffolk (NGR TM 0511 5684). Combs Hall was a building of considerable- architectural grandeur, built in 1724 for Orlando Bridgeman Esq. and demolished in 1756. While the few surviving outbuildings permitted only limited architectural analysis by R.C.H.M.E., the earthworks of the contemporary garden are extensive and well- preserved. The main earthworks were surveyed by the Ordnance Survey in 1884 and are shown on the first edition 1:2500 scale map of 1885 (and on subsequent editions). The first reference in prMt to the remains was in 1919, following a visit by the Revd Edmund Farrer of Botesdale, a very observant local antiquarian who made notes on a large number of historic houses and sites in the county. However the detailed interpretation of the earthworks only started after an estate map of 1741 was brought into the Suffolk Record Office in 1991 (Jones 1991). The gardens, with their formal design, are in most respects characteristic of the early 18th century, but are of considerable interest in that they are tightly dated, were recorded in detail on a contemporary estate map, and were almost immediately fossilised by the abandonment of the house.

  • Conservation Area Appraisal
    CONSERVATION AREA APPRAISAL Needham Market NW © Crown copyright All rights reserved Mid Suffolk D C Licence no 100017810 2010 INTRODUCTION The conservation area in Needham Market was designated in 1970 by East Suffolk County Council, and inherited by Mid Suffolk District Council at its inception in 1974. It was last appraised and extended by Mid Suffolk District Council in 2000. The Council has a duty to review its conservation area designations from time to time, and this appraisal examines Needham Market under a number of different headings as set out in English Heritage’s ‘Guidance on Conservation Area Appraisals’ (2006). As such it is a straightforward appraisal of Needham Market’s built environment in conservation terms. This document is neither prescriptive nor overly descriptive, but more a demonstration of ‘quality of place’, sufficient for the briefing of the Planning Officer when assessing proposed works in the area. The Town Sign photographs and maps are thus intended to contribute as much as the text itself. As the English Heritage guidelines point out, the appraisal is to be read as a general overview, rather than as a comprehensive listing, and the omission of any particular building, feature or space does not imply that it is of no interest in conservation terms.
