Work has commenced on many of these actions in 2013/14 and will continue in 2014/15. This work has been developed through engagement in national discussions on all the priorities set out in the Route Map, and involves co-production with staff, patients, public and partners. We are currently developing our Strategic Plan for 2014-2024 and through this our aims and ambitions are being aligned to the aspirations of the 2020 Vision. The Draft Strategic Plan is being submitted to the NHS Lothian Board on the 2nd April for approval. From there the propositions that we set out will be taken forward for consultation, engagement and further development as appropriate. The plan outlines how we will deliver health and care across the whole system, including primary and community care and acute hospital services. It considers the whole system and our proposals to transform patient pathways for those with complex needs and co-morbidities. It builds on our aspirations in respect of integration and the need to shift the balance of care to provide care at home and in the community whenever possible. We will review what activity is currently undertaken across our physical estate in order to ensure maximisation of space and our workforce. In doing so we are committed to retaining our four acute sites. These being the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh, the Western General Hospital, St John’s Hospital and the Royal Edinburgh Hospital. In addition, we will explore options to improve the quality and safety of hospital facilities. This will include re-providing complex care beds from Corstorphine Hospital, some from Astley Ainslie Hospital in upgraded accommodation at the Royal Victoria Hospital, and the long term use of the Royal Victoria Hospital. With Edinburgh Council a priority for 2014/15 is to explore the future role of the Royal Victoria Hospital and Liberton Hospital to meet the care needs of older people. This will include the potential development of care villages. The options for both the Lauriston Building and the Princess Alexandra Eye Pavilion sites will also be reviewed. We will consider better utilisation of the Midlothian Community Hospital and the development of the new East Lothian Community Hospital for older people’s care. We have also restated our ambition to reprovide the Edinburgh Cancer Centre on the Western General site. These, along with other propositions will be set out within the final Strategic Plan which we will forward to you once the plan has been approved by the Board.

Person-centred Person-centred Care For a long time, and in common with much of the rest of the UK, we have planned the way we deliver health services separately in different parts of our system (primary care, acute care, NHS, local councils). We have also tended to plan around buildings, or around individual services. What is proposed here is a radical shift away from this ‘traditional’ approach to a patient-centred, whole-system approach, focussing much more explicitly on the needs of people who use NHS Lothian’s services. Our Strategic Plan is predicated on the need for redesign to deliver improvements in health and care services in Lothian. A central tenet of service redesign is to focus on the patients’ journey and experience, to help identify where service improvements are necessary and to involve a wide range of service users and providers in analysing and redesigning improved patient pathways. Using intelligence and evidence, we have identified representative patients with varying degrees of care needs. We then use these patients as examples to illustrate their pathways of care, understand their care needs, how their care needs are currently being met and agree how these can be met more effectively and efficiently in radically different ways. This is being conducted through a designed and managed process of engagement during 2014 and is expected to inform large and significant parts of the final plan. Person Centred Health & Care Programme The national Person Centred Health & Care Programme (PCHC) was launched by the Cabinet Secretary in November 2012 with the aim of developing health and care services that are centred on the people who use our services. This programme build on the work that NHS Lothian has done to date and gives us a further emphasis on how we use the experiences of patients, families and carers to improve our care and services. There are five elements that as an organisation we should consider when speaking with patients and service users What matters to you? Who matters to you? What information do you need? Personalised contact Involved in discussions and communication about your care 5 In addition to this national improvement programme, NHS Lothian will also consider other sources of patient feedback and information such as patient stories. We will use a range of approaches to ensure that the patient's voice and their experiences are used to drive improvements so that care and services are provided safely, effectively and in a person centred way. This work also builds on our organisational values of care and compassion, dignity and respect, quality, teamwork, openness, honesty and responsibility. 2.1 Co-Production The Scottish Government and CoSLA are of the view that using ‘assets-based approaches’ such as co-production are instrumental if we are to successfully shift the balance of health and social care and develop public services that are focused on prevention and independence (Governance International 2013). Co- production recognises that people have ‘assets’ such as knowledge, skills, characteristics, experience, friends, family, colleagues, and communities. These assets can be

  • Edinburgh's Joint Commissioning Plan for Older People 2012-22
    ‘Live Well in Later Life’ Edinburgh’s Joint Commissioning Plan for Older People 2012-22 In partnership with Foreword Older people use our health and social care services more than any other group of service users. We also know that the number of older people is growing faster than any other age group and their preferences and expectations are changing. In order to meet the needs of older people in Edinburgh, now and in the future, it is essential that we have robust plans in place. It is key that these plans are developed and delivered in partnership with all providers of health, social care and support for older people, whether these be in the NHS, Council, voluntary or independent sector. It is only by working together that we can deliver the best outcomes for older people within the challenging financial and demographic context that we face. This ten year plan sets out the strategic direction for older people’s services ranging from acute hospital care through to lower levels of support provided within the community. The plan covers a wide range of services and support and recognises the important contribution made to the health and wellbeing of older people living in Edinburgh. Within the lifetime of this plan, the health and social care landscape will change significantly. National policy changes including the Integration of Health and Social Care and the Personalisation of services (which includes the introduction of Self Directed Support legislation) will transform the way that care and support is delivered. We are working with our partners to deliver this transformational change, to give older people more choice and control over the care and support they receive and to ensure that health and social care services are of high quality, are joined up and are focused on individuals.
