  • Integrated Medium Term Plan Summary 2017-18
    Welsh Ambulance Services NHS Trust Integrated Medium Term Plan Summary 2017-2018 Published: MARCH 2017 www.ambulance.wales.nhs.uk www.facebook.com/welshambulanceservice @WelshAmbulance 0 1- INTRODUCTION Welcome to the summary document of our Integrated Medium Term Plan (IMTP). We are conscious that our IMTP is a lengthy, technical document that many may not have the time to read. This summary is our way of trying to make such an important document more reader friendly. The IMTP document is a requirement of Welsh Government for all Health Boards and Trusts in NHS Wales and it sets out our direction for the next three years stating our priorities, challenges and main risks. Throughout the main plan we commit ourselves to 48 actions which can be viewed in more detail in the main IMTP. We believe our IMTP is vital for us in WAST, regardless of it being a necessity for Welsh Government, to ensure there is a clear plan in place for the organisation. In a message from the Chair and Chief Executive they have stated how reshaping an ambulance service is a long term process and therefore a need to focus on our services and how we deliver them especially as the type of patients we are seeing are changing within our ageing population. This can only be achievable with support from our partners and ensuring our teams have the right skills. We hope you find this summary a useful insight into the Trust and the work we are continuing to do to improve the quality of care we deliver to our patients.

Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board (CTM UHB) welcomes the opportunity to discuss the current situation at the Emergency Department the Royal Glamorgan Hospital and the consequential development of the future model of care. 2. This briefing paper provides members of the Committee with information about the background, rationale and progress of a project instigated by the CTM UHB to consider the outstanding recommendations of the South Wales Programme (SWP) and how they should be appropriately considered and progressed in the current context. Background 3. The SWP within NHS Wales was set up in 2012 to look at the future of four consultant-led hospital services, specifically, maternity services, neonatal care, inpatient paediatric services and emergency medicine. These services were selected for consideration due to their fragility, in terms of their ability to deliver safe and sustainable models of care, as then configured. 4. The SWP was a partnership of the five health boards serving people living in South Wales and South Powys, working with the Welsh Ambulance Services NHS Trust (WAST).

  • Welsh Ambulance Services NHS Trust Submission
    S 52 Inquiry into Suicide Prevention Ymchwiliad i Atal Hunanladdiad Ymateb gan Ymddiriedolaeth GIG Gwasanaethau Ambiwlans Cymru Response from the Welsh Ambulance Service NHS Trust Welsh Ambulance Services NHS Trust Submission: Health, Social Care and Sport Committee: Inquiry into Suicide Prevention 1. The Welsh Ambulance Services NHS Trust welcomes the opportunity to submit evidence to Committee on this important topic. 2. This evidence comprises two elements: a general summary of the organisation’s work in the broad realm of mental health and suicide more particularly, coupled with a detailed submission based on research by the Welsh Ambulance Service’s Head of Research and Innovation, and Advanced Paramedic Practitioner, Nigel Rees. 3. Sadly, it is not uncommon for ambulance service staff to attend incidents of suicide. It is similarly the case that attendances to patients experiencing mental distress are also rising. 4. Caring for patients with a mental health problem demands a particular set of skills which can be quite different from those required for more what might be considered as more traditional types of emergency care, for example trauma. 5. Additionally, working collaboratively with other emergency services, notably the police, and the wider NHS system is crucial in ensuring that patients receive the right service for them, and that the voices of this vulnerable group of patients are heard. 6. Importantly, the mental well-being of ambulance service staff cannot be overlooked and, as an organisation, we are committed to developing support services for colleagues in order that they have access to any support required, regardless of whether that need is the result of distress experienced as a function of their professional experiences or because of matters outside work.
