    Integration Joint Board 13th September 2018 Subject: Mental Welfare Commission Themed Visit to people with dementia in Community Hospitals Purpose: To provide an update as to the feedback from the Mental Welfare Commission (MWC) on their announced inspection visits to people with dementia in community hospitals, highlighting areas of good practice noted and recommendations made for areas of required improvement. Recommendation: Integrated Joint Board (IJB) members to please note the content of the report and consider the implementation of the supporting action plan which has been developed in response to the recommendations of the above noted report. Glossary of Terms AWI Adults with Incapacity IJB Integration Joint Board HSCP Health & Social Care Partnership MWC Mental Welfare Commission NHSAA NHS Ayrshire & Arran 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 In May 2018 the MWC for Scotland published the “Visiting and monitoring report: Themed Visit to people with dementia in community hospitals” (Appendix 1). The report provides a picture of the experience of patients and carers in community hospitals across Scotland and contains twelve recommendations for IJB’s around improving the care provided within community hospitals, whilst also highlighting areas of good practice. 1.2 Community Hospital Ward Environments: Although ward environments visited were generally found to be clean and in good decorative order, the findings of the report were that more work could be done to make environments more dementia friendly. Furthermore, although there was a strong focus on physical rehabilitation within ward environments, the overall picture was of very limited meaningful and stimulating activity for people with dementia. Wards areas that had access to specialist dementia services and/or a dementia champion were found to display clear benefits in terms of supporting the development of good practice in dementia care.
