TB 003/18 DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST There were no declarations of interest. However, Non-Executive Director, Isla Wilson confirmed that an updated declaration of interest had been submitted following her recent appointment as Non-Executive Director of Healthier Lancashire and South Cumbria STP. It was also noted that the declaration of interest for Gwynne Furlong, Non-Executive Director required updating to note his position as Director of Red Rose Corporate Services. Finally, the declaration of interest for Peter Ballard required removal following his departure from the Trust.
TB 004/18 MINUTES OF THE PREVIOUS MEETING
The minutes of the previous meeting held on 07 December 2017 were approved as a true and accurate record.
TB 005/18 ACTION TRACKER
The Board reviewed the action tracker and provided updates in respect of the open actions.
TB 006/18 TRUST CHAIR’S REPORT The Chair presented his report which included an overview of the activity of both Non-Executive Directors and Governors. The Chair drew the Board’s attention to
UNCONFIRMED
the recommendation from the Audit Committee that the counter fraud contract provided by MIAA be extended for a further two years with effect from 01 April 2018. The Board noted the content of the Chair’s Report and approved the extension of the MIAA contract for a further two years in line with the Decision Rights Framework, ref 5.5.
TB 007/18 CHIEF EXECUTIVE’S REPORT The Chief Executive introduced her report, a key highlight of which included the improvements following reporting issues identified in the Early Intervention Service (EIS). Following a question from a Non-Executive Director in respect of the timings of the fact finding review, the Company Secretary confirmed that this would be finalised within the next two weeks, following which any actions and recommendations would be presented to Board. ACTION The Chief Executive provided an update in respect of the LCIA Test Bed and confirmed that Philips UKI had decided to withdraw the Motiva telehealth product. This means that it will close its existing UK customer accounts, and would not be extending its contract with the Lancashire and Cumbria Innovation Alliance within the NHS England test-bed programme beyond 31 March 2018. The Chief Executive confirmed that the impact of this was currently being discussed with both NHS England and Philips. The Chief Executive drew the Board’s attention to the immense pressure that the NHS continued to experience and reflected on previous discussions at Board regarding winter preparedness. The work that had taken place within the networks was highlighted, including the implementation of both Gold Command and the integrated discharged team, which had enabled the Trust to address the challenges over the Christmas period.
TB 008/18 QUALITY REPORT
The Associate Director of Safety and Quality Governance introduced the report and drew the Board’s attention to the continued challenge in respect of violence on inpatient units and the increase in the use of restraint, which highlighted a clear correlation. Whilst various improvement initiatives were underway, the ABI service had seen particular success following the introduction of positive behaviour plans. In recognition of the need to take stock of the continuing challenge to deliver improvement, the Associate Director confirmed that he had commissioned a full review of the total approach to violence reduction and management within the Trust with a view to a refreshed programme being launched in April 2018. In addition, the Quality and Safety Sub-committee were receiving a series of deep dive presentations into violence and restrictive practices across inpatient units utilising an internal benchmarking format. The Board noted the slight increase in the number of serious incidents. This was against the backdrop of a sustained reduction over recent years and likely reflected a plateau of that reduction with a new average of eight serious incidents per month. The Mental Health Harm Free Care rate remained below the Trust aspiration and correlated with the high levels of violence and aggression on the inpatient wards.
Whilst there had been a notable increase in complaints, this position is reflected nationally, and is also considered to be partly attributable to the new hearing feedback model where the Trust has been actively seeking out feedback from people who use services, their families and carers. There remained a challenge around the timing of responses; however, this piece of work was being closely monitored by the Nursing and Quality Directorate and work was underway to improve the level of response rate. In relation to mandatory training, there remained areas of under-performance in some core skills and essential skills subjects and whilst the number of overdue incident reports was increasing there was focussed pieced of work underway to address this. The Board’s attention was drawn to the quality plan and the work that was underway to address the areas reported as off track, in particular the development work to capture supervision. The Associate Director confirmed that the reduction in pressure ulcers had been a particular area of focus within the Trust and as a result had seen significant reductions. The Trust had also seen a reduction in red flag incidents following increased scrutiny and the Friends and Family Test results had also remained positive. The Chair raised concern in respect of the percentage of patients being given their rights within 24 hours of admission. The Associate Director re-assured the Chair that patients were always given a written copy of their rights; however, they were not always provided with them verbally within the 24 hour period or recorded as such. Work was currently underway with the lead nurses in each area to understand what the barriers were. The Associate Director agreed to explore the potential of the NerveCentre to support team’s compliance. ACTION The Board noted the content of the Quality Report.
TB 009/18 PERFORMANCE REPORT
The Chief Operating Officer presented the Performance Report for month 8 and confirmed that the Trust was compliant with all NHS Improvement indicators with the exception of performance against the Early Intervention in Psychosis (EIS) two week target. Whilst the Trust was actively monitoring new patients, there was a legacy of patients that impacted on the overall position. Key highlights from the report were outlined which included the development over future months of the Board Balanced Scorecard to include a summary of the 5YFV dashboard of performance metrics. Work had been conducted on the new NHSI measure for inappropriate Out of Area Placements. A trajectory had been submitted by the STP and the performance against trajectory would be included in the QPR from next month. Discussions had taken place with NHSI and NHSE regarding the application of the definition to ensure appropriate interpretation and reporting. Following the request at the previous Board meeting to review IAPT waiting times, the Chief Operating Officer confirmed that a deep dive into service users waiting over 26 weeks had been undertaken and was therefore confident that the number of patients waiting over 26 weeks would be recovered. This was therefore not raised as an issue.
The Chief Operating Officer provided an update in relation to the improvement seen in the four hour target which demonstrated the positive contribution the Trust was making as a result of the early investment that had been secured around Core 24. Additionally, the introduction of the Integrated Discharge Team has resulted in a number of avoided admissions. Whilst there had been improvement in the attendance of Local Care Co-ordinators at Secure Inpatient CPA Reviews, this still remained an issue. However, work was ongoing with Service Managers in order to allocate attendees to all Secure Inpatient CPA Reviews. Following a query from a Non-Executive Director in respect of the 5YFV dashboard, the Chief Operating Officer confirmed that the first three metrics were as a result of the changes to the Single Oversight Framework and linked to the Children and Young People Transition Board. The target for Inappropriate OAPs was a new target; however, in respect of the MHSDS Data Quality Maturity Index target, the Chief Operating Officer would need to ascertain further detail.
The Chief Operating Officer responded to Non-Executive Director, Louise Dickinson’s concern regarding the number of PACE breaches and confirmed that a meeting was due to be held with the Police to discuss the breaches and the number of late referrals the Trust had received. In addition, the team from the Hub would be visiting the custody suites to appreciate the environment in which people were waiting. Following concern from Non-Executive Director, Louise Dickinson in respect of the increase in sickness rates within the Trust, it was agreed that this would be discussed further at a future Board meeting when the Director of HR was present. ACTION The Chief Operating Officer confirmed that this was a key domain within the Business Development & Delivery meeting. The Board noted the Performance Report for month 8.
TB 010/18 FINANCE REPORT
The Chief Finance Officer presented the Finance Report for month 8 which highlighted a year to date operating deficit of -£1.9m, excluding planned Sustainability and Transformation funding of £1.1m, against a planned surplus to date of £0.9m. Whilst there had been further improvements in month of £300k the position continued to be driven by staffing pressures, particularly within secure services. Other key highlights included the new Use of Resources (UoR) metric which was rated at 2 and saw an improvement from month 7 (rated at 3). The Chief Finance Officer confirmed that progress against the capital programme had been slow to date. With the resolution of a number of issues, the Trust was working with contractors to minimise the impact of delays on the programme. External cash funding was provisionally allocated to the Inpatient project through the STP and was approved by NHSI in October. Additional information and governance requirements were subsequently added by and provided to DH, and final approval remains to be confirmed. The Chief Finance Officer drew the Board’s attention to the Financial Recovery Plan and highlighted the key risks that related to delivery and timing. The plan would continue to be refined and presented in more detail to the Financial Recovery Group along with any actions.
The Chief Finance Officer highlighted a risk in respect of invoicing for non-contracted activity. Having previously received mediation, the CCGs had since raised concerns in respect of the legitimacy of doing this. Following a question from a Non-Executive Director regarding winter monies, the Chief Finance Officer confirmed that the Trust had been successful in securing additional funding. The Chief Operating Officer confirmed that the money was held centrally and would be released once the names and additional hours worked within the network had been obtained. A discussion followed in respect of the control total. The Chief Finance Officer confirmed that whilst next year’s control total was set, a discussion had been held with NHSI following the loss of the universal services tender and the Trust had been requested to write formally to NHSI to outline the issues and request that the control total be reviewed. The Board noted the month 8 finance position.
TB 011/18 ANY OTHER BUSINESS There was no other business to discuss.

Introduction This report aims to give Board members an overview of the activity undertaken since the last Board meeting, both within the Trust and externally.
Serious Incidents During December 2017, the following serious incidents were reported: (brief information is provided to protect confidentiality, the term suicide is only used once a Coroner’s
Inquest has returned a verdict of suicide)

Death (suspected suicide) of a patient under the care of the Mindsmatter Service in St Helens.
In all cases, a formal investigation is now underway and the incidents have been reported to commissioners, NHS England and regulators as required under the NHS Serious Incident Framework.
Significant health and safety incidents During December 2017, the following incidents were reported to the Health and Safety Executive and Care Quality Commission under the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous occurrences Regulations (RIDDOR):
(brief information is provided to protect confidentiality)
QUALITY AND SAFETY
Injury to a staff member from a slip during restraint resulting in an absence from work of over seven days;
Injury to a staff member’s hand during restraint resulting in an absence from work of over seven days;
Injury to a staff member from a slip on icy ground resulting in a fracture to the foot.
Raising Concerns During December 2017, the following concerns were reported through the various mechanisms including the Raising Concerns Guardian and through Dear David:
The use of an external venue for a Board meeting given the restriction on using external venues;
Failure of the alarm system in the Scarisbrick Centre; Concerns about a restraint; Staff unaware of the PICU policies and procedures; Bullying by a line manager; No hand drying facilities in a toilet; Payments for overnight “sleep in” shifts; Concerns about caseload size; Behaviour of a staff member towards a patient; Two concerns around heating systems not working; Bullying of staff and culture; Staff sleeping on night shift.
In all cases a review of proportionate scale has been commissioned. The findings from each review are individually fed back to the person raising the concern if they have provided their name. The findings from every concern is summarised in the Quality Matters bulletin.
Care Quality Commission (CQC) Inspection The Care Quality Commission began its inspection of the Trust in January 2018. This process will run through January and February. The draft reports will be expected up to 12 weeks after the Well Led Review, which is planned for week commencing 19 February 2018. During the Well Led Review, the CQC will be holding interviews with the Trust Chair, Executive Directors, and the Raising concerns Guardian. The CQC will also be holding focus groups with Non-Executive Directors, Governors, Commissioners and Staff Side.
Registration with the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) As a result of changes in legislation, the Trust has now registered with the HSE under the Ionising Radiations Regulations 2017. This covers the use of x-ray equipment in dental services. In submitting the registration, the following has been confirmed:
A risk assessment has been completed which identifies the main radiological risks associated with the work with ionising radiation and identifies any reasonably foreseeable radiation accident;
Steps have been taken to measure or estimate employees’ exposure to ionising radiation and appropriate action taken;
Actions identified in the radiation risk assessment that will restrict employees’ and other persons’
exposure to ionising radiation so far as is reasonably practicable have been completed;
Contingency plans have been drawn up for all reasonably foreseeable radiation accidents identified in the radiation risk assessment and, where appropriate, rehearsals will be carried out at suitable intervals;
• A suitable radiation protection adviser (RPA) has been appointed and consulted; Appropriate training, information and instruction is provided to all employees engaged in or
affected by work with ionising radiation and will be repeated at appropriate intervals; Controlled and/or supervised areas have been correctly designated and demarcated (where
required); Written local rules have been drawn up, where required, and radiation protection supervisor(s)
are appointed for all work in controlled areas and, where appropriate, supervised areas.
Infection Prevention and Control:
Flu Campaign The current uptake for the 2017/18 staff flu campaign is 59.5% (63% for frontline staff). 30 staff have been trained to administer the vaccine to their colleagues and the Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) Team have attended team meetings and educational sessions to encourage uptake. Around seventy drop-in sessions have been provided and staff have also been issued with free flu vouchers should they wish to have the vaccine elsewhere. The campaign has been well supported by the Communications Team and the Pulse and social media are used to highlight where staff can obtain the flu vaccine.
Outbreak - iGAS Bronte Ward at The Harbour is currently closed to admissions due to a suspected outbreak of Group A Streptococcus (iGAS). 2 patients identified as having invasive Gp A Strep (iGAS) have been admitted to acute hospitals within a 7 day period and a further patient has been treated for suspected infection, along with two staff members identified as carrying the infection. Regular meetings are being held to plan and update key stakeholders and the ward remains closed to admissions until the infection has been eradicated.
HMP Liverpool Audit The Infection Prevention and Control Team recently carried out an audit of the inpatient Unit at the healthcare facility in HMP Liverpool. This identified significant issues with the environmental cleanliness throughout the facility. There were also a significant number of maintenance issues that were identified and reported to Amey (provider of cleaning services) which required immediate attention to ensure that the environment was safe for staff & patients.
Following the audit, the Head of IPC worked with members of the nursing team to introduce cleaning schedules, decluttering of equipment stores and IPC education. IPC also met with the Service Manager and cleaning provider (Amey) to identify the key issues within the facility and develop recommendations. Further audits by LCFT IPCT and NHS England have identified some progress with the cleanliness but there remain some outstanding actions, which IPC are working to address with the staff.
FINANCE AND PERFORMANCE
Finance Report After adjusting for impairments of £0.2m the deficit for month 9 is a -£1.3m which excludes year to date planned Sustainability and Transformation Funding of c£1.4m, against a plan surplus to date of £1.2m. Performance is therefore £2.5m behind the control total and £1.1m behind with STF. The
position continues to be driven by staffing pressures in ward and prison areas which is also impacting on delivery against planned cost improvement programmes, particularly ward staffing. In addition, expenditure is exceeding funding on OAPs resulting in current and forecast pressures. Performance does however show an improvement on the Month 8 in month position of £0.6m and an in month surplus over plan of £0.3m. Unmitigated projections indicate a gap of c£4.2m (£6.4m without STF), which again shows an improvement of c£0.5m over the month 8 position. Though improvements in performance are evident, continued delivery will require sustained and coordinated responses with robust management and oversight. After taking in to account £1.7m of disposals, which are accounted for after EBITDA, EBITDA is broadly in line with I&E Margin. The new Use of Resources (UoR) metric is rated at 2, consistent with month 8, should the Trust meet its financial plans and targets the Trust will achieve a rating of 2.
Performance Report & Quality Report The Quality Report can be viewed under TB 028/18 and the separate Performance Report can be viewed under item TB 030/18.
Early Intervention Service (EIS) Update Further to the update at January Board regarding the actions to address EIS performance, the fact finding investigation commissioned by the Chief Operating Officer has concluded. The final report has been shared with the Chief Executive, Chief Operating Officer and Head of Operations for the Children & Young People’s Wellbeing Network. The report provides eight recommendations to mitigate against the issues identified as part of the fact finding, both specific to the EIS team and also wider learning. These are drawn out below;
Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) 1. Review the SOP taking into account the comments regarding conflicting statements. 2. When multiple guidance is available in relation to a performance target, ensure the regulatory
guidance is the one used to develop the Trust’s SOP. 3. Discuss the possibilities of an internal audit being added to the 2018/19 Audit Plan that would
support the work being undertaken around SOP development particularly in relation to performance targets with multiple data sources.
System 4. Review the timescales around the rollout of the new EPR system in relation to EIS and
whether there would be any benefit in prioritising this.
Leadership 5. Hold an engagement event with the EIS team and consider ongoing engagement processes. 6. Enhance the role of the HR Business Partner in supporting the Networks Senior
Management team when issues such as large amounts of change in teams arise.
Education 7. There is a need for an educational piece of work to be undertaken to ensure staff across the
organisation understand the requirements of the EIS two week wait target and the obligations on those teams to support compliance with the target.
Other 8. During the investigation, the Company Secretary requested that a random sample of data
from 2016/17 be validated. This identified the same issues as identified with the 2017/18 data. A full review of the 2016/17 data has now been commissioned.
The existing action plan around the EIS performance has been updated with these recommendations which will continue to be monitored by the Corporate Governance & Compliance Sub-Committee.
CAMHS Transformation Preparation (CIC) Subsequent to the discussions at last month’s Board meeting, advice was taken regarding Change Talks and employment options etc. In this instance it was agreed that a fixed term appointment be made with support from UnLtd Foundation. Business and risk development support will be given by the Head of Operations for CYP. A meeting has been set up with relevant parties to agree how we can mainstream this type of approach in the event of future opportunities.
Changes to the Local NHS Improvement Team The Trust has been advised that Anne Gibbs, the Delivery and Improvement Director for Greater Manchester and Lancashire is leaving NHS Improvement. The interim arrangements put in place by NHSI for the next few months see Linda Buckley acting as the interim Delivery & Improvement Director. As Linda is Manchester based and due to resourcing at NHSI the support to Lancashire will be further enhanced with Stephen Downs taking a lead on the Lancashire STP development. Lesley Neary will also be joining the sub regional team to provide further delivery support.
Memorandum Of Understanding (MoU) for Learning Disability Providers To extend our collaboration with Cheshire Wirral Partnership (CWP) around learning disabilities, an MoU has been developed between LCFT, CWP and also Merseycare and North West Boroughs. The MoU sets out the arrangements for a collaborative partnership approach and the establishment of a Provider Board to deliver the vision as set out in Building the Right Support – a national plan to
develop community service and close inpatient facilities for people with learning disabilities and/or
autism who display behaviour that challenges, including those with a mental health condition.
This approach provides an opportunity to revisit the work streams allocated to the North West region of the Transforming Care Programme through the Operational Delivery Network. This will potentially allow for the key elements of development to be undertaken at the appropriate scale, for example, future workforce for learning disabilities on a regional basis. This will also reduce the duplication of work that has been generated at local STP level.
Practically, the MoU also enables closer working on all aspects of learning disability pathways and this has been welcomed by Commissioners and the STP Programme Board.
The Board is asked to approve the MoU which can be seen here.

CHAIRS REPORT
CHAIRS REPORT OF: Audit Committee
DATE OF MEETING: 23 January 2018
AGENDA ITEMS DISCUSSION, ASSURANCE, RISK OR FURTHER ACTION
Outcome of Committee effectiveness review
The Committee noted the robust process adopted to complete the annual Committee effectiveness review. Several areas of good practice were outlined within the paper. Areas for improvement were noted as a full review of the Terms of Reference to include the enhanced oversight of the Board Assurance Framework, further input into the Internal Audit plan, horizon scanning with increased awareness of amended or emerging regulations or risks, integration with other Board Committees and improved meeting efficiency in relation to the prioritisation of agendas. The Committee members met with Internal Audit following the meeting to discuss the Internal Audit plan for 2018/19 and the revised Terms of Reference and Cycle of Business would be presented at the April Committee.
Internal Audit Reporting
Internal Audit Follow-up and Progress report The Committee noted both the internal audit follow-up and progress report, including four completed reviews:
1. Mobilisation, Demobilisation and Transition of service; High, Significant and Limited assurance (relating to CaSH).
2. Agency Cap; Limited assurance. 3. Cyber Security; Significant assurance 4. Financial Systems; High/Significant assurance.
A discussion was raised regarding the limited assurance level following the audit of the transition of CaSH services; a high risk recommendation to improve the assurance was identified as the implementation of a performance monitoring and reporting mechanism. The significant issue within the CaSH transition was highlighted as the complexity of the service and geography and the absence of implementation of the appropriate controls. Three high risk recommendations were identified within the Agency Cap audit; it was noted that controls had not operated effectively and therefore enhanced controls were required to ensure guidance was clear and communicated effectively to staff. Updates on progress against the recommendations had been provided by the Trust and audits were being undertaken internally within the Trust to monitor the effectiveness of the controls.
MIAA were satisfied with the progression of work to address the challenges. Significant assurance around the tight and effective controls in place for both Cyber Security and Financial Systems were noted by the Committee, highlighting the on-going commitment of the Trust to mitigate any risks. The Cyber Security Internal Audit identified a ‘should’ recommendation relating to the strengthening of the firewall between the Trust and COIN and work has been undertaken to close this gap and strengthen the Trust’s protection. The progress report highlighted an amber rating; of which matters had been escalated and responded to and MIAA were satisfied that the programme would be delivered. Internal Audit Anti-fraud update The Committee received assurance on the delivery of the work-plan and progression of investigations. There were no concerns regarding the activity underway and 5 outstanding actions remained which were not yet due. Evidence was readily available in a timely manner and the Trust was pro-actively providing regular updates. The Committee’s attention was drawn to two cases where the investigation had been completed with convictions of fraud. Information on these cases would be disseminated There had been an issue regarding contract performance, however the Committee received assurance that strengthened support was addressing this gap and the reasonableness of the FIRST reporting SLA was being raised nationally with NHS Protect.
External Audit draft plan
The Committee noted the content of the plan and the additional specific risk relating to evaluation of land and buildings which remained significant due to the high figures and degree of estimation required. Guidance on the Quality Account has not yet been issued. It is anticipated that new indicators will be assessed. The guidance will be circulated to the Committee as soon as it is available. KPMG would remain in close liaison with the Finance department around the issues relating to provisions and guidance around STF funding, which was noted as a key risk towards year-end.
External Audit Non-Audit Performance Update
There had been no change to the non-audit performance update.
Clinical Audit Reporting
The Committee received assurance that progress against the Clinical Audit Plan and prior year action plans was good, with one outstanding action to be completed relating to eating disorders. A deep diver had been undertaken by the Medical Director for all failed re-audits (carer’s re-audit, Clozaril re audit, Diabetes re audit) and Quality Improvement Plans developed, which would be discussed at the Quality and Safety Sub-Committee. The Committee asked that a progress report against these plans be included in its Clinical Audit
Report going forward. The revised Standard Operating Procedure identified the enhancement of the Clinical Audit framework and reflected the changes in protocol to strengthen the outcomes. The Committee was assured that the postponement of the lone working audit was not increasing any risk and that it was still a priority for completion in 18/19.
Corporate Governance + Compliance Chairs Report
Further work was being undertaken to enhance the Sub-Committee’s assurance of the Trust’s achievement of the guidance regarding community rapid response times as set out by NHSI; the Committee noted that this was not a reporting requirement but an internal reporting request for best practice. An issue was raised regarding attendance at the SIRO and Caldicott Guardian meeting which had been addressed with a number of assigned actions; an update would be provided at the next Sub-Committee and reported to the Audit Committee. An investigation had taken place to explore the EIS failure with an action plan assigned, and an update paper would be provided to the Trust Board.
Financial Matters and Related Reporting
Breaches and Waivers Q3 The Committee received the report for noting purposes and there were no risks or concerns identified. Losses and Special Payments Q3 The Committee received the report with no particular issues to note. Comparable benchmarking data from previous years was noted within the report as requested. An additional piece of benchmarking work was to be undertaken against Mental Health and Community Trusts.
Cyber Security The paper provided an update in response to the Audit Committee guidance issued by the National Audit Office in September 2017. The paper complemented the Internal Audit report and provided the Audit Committee with additional assurance regarding its Cyber Security activity. The Committee noted that the formal ISO 27001 assessment will take place in March 2018 and asked for a report on the outcome of this assessment at its next meeting. Discussions took place around the training of staff to support the reduction of potential threats, which was incorporated into the mandatory IG training tool. A new IG toolkit with the inclusion of Cyber Security was being developed by NHS Digital.
Outcome of Internal Audit review
A recommendation was made by the Committee to extend the contract with MIAA for a further two years and this was supported by the Committee. An updated improvement plan for the Internal Audit services would come back to the April Committee following discussions with the Associate Director of Risk and Assurance and MIAA lead.

AGENDA ITEMS BAF RISK DISCUSSION, ASSURANCE, RISK OR FURTHER ACTION Board Assurance Framework (BAF)
1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 3.1, 4.1, 4.2
The Committee noted the Q2 BAF risks aligned to the Committee and would consider any impact on the risks throughout the meeting. This would be incorporated into the Q3 report presented to the Board in February.
Emerging issues 1.1 The Committee received an update regarding HMP Liverpool; continuing work to address issues following the quality inspection was noted. The response to the CQC Report and the update to the action plan were to be signed off by the Director of Nursing. Scrutiny of the action plan would continue to be monitored by the Quality & Safety Sub-Committee and any escalations to this Committee as necessary until the contract end date. A discussion was held around the challenges at The Cove relating to staffing and challenging admissions; on-going conversations with the Commissioners were underway to agree a joint way forward. There had been an outbreak of Strep A on Bronte Ward. Immediate steps taken were outlined to the Committee and assurance provided on the well skilled staff managing the situation.
Quality Plan Bi-Annual Report
1.1 The significant work underway and the detailed plan to manage quality improvement following key themes from the inspection were noted, including the progress around appraisals and core skills, additional information would be provided following the findings of the benchmarking data. Concerns relating to Mental Health Law compliance were highlighted and were discussed in further depth under the Mental Health Law Sub-Committee item.
Safer Staffing Bi-Annual Report
1.1, 4.1, 4.2, 5.1, 6.1, 7.2
The on-going staffing challenges recognised that there was still an increase in leavers in comparison to new recruits. On-going work was underway to understand and address barriers, noting the operational challenges as well as high levels of acuity and bed occupancy. A key factor increasing the levels of acuity was highlighted as the impact of service users with complex and challenging needs. Some risks within the networks required additional scrutiny to ensure appropriate plans were in place and that scoring was appropriate; this work would be reported back to the Committee. The hot spot areas within bank and agency challenges had been identified and the 8 highest spending areas were being targeted for improvement which had been well received. Significant work had been undertaken around efficient rostering and scrutiny of requests for additional staff and the recognition of acceptance of patients being a continued challenge of activity. A key finding for contribution to spending was noted as the impact to staff sickness due to significantly challenging patients where staff were not equipped to respond in the appropriate way; this was largely relevant within Guild and the Trusts dementia services. The ability to seek alternatives to admission was having a positive impact to the Trust and supported the reduction in inappropriate admissions. Progress had been made to reduce rates of admissions; despite this there was a continuing high rate which was impacting the overall figure. The next steps to address staffing issues were outlined and an update would be provided to the Committee; in particular around the focus on triangulation regarding the impact of violence reduction training. Following the Trust Chair’s visit to the Harbour, the improvements within inpatient units following the implementation of zonal observations were noted. The Trust is considering rolling this out across other areas, initially within older adults and PICU.
Serious Incidents Bi-Annual Report
1.1 Attention was drawn to 2 particular areas; serious incidents and suicides. There had been a notable decrease in serious incidents within the 6 month-period in comparison to last year’s data; there had been a similar decrease in suicides however a minor increase in avoidable pressure ulcers, this had improved in areas where community staff were undertaking this work. The majority of suicides were not within the inpatient areas.
The suicide prevention plan had been shared with the Board and an update on progression would be brought back to the Committee. The Serious Incident Learning Panel continued to seek assurance on improvement plans ensuring that actions had been embedded. This report would be provided on a quarterly basis in the future.
Quality & Safety Surveillance Reports
1.1 The Clinical Audit report and Mental Health harm free care showed some improvements; however was still below the Trusts 90% target, which was primarily due to violence and medical incidents. The Friends & Family test were receiving positive responses; however an issue around completed responses was currently being addressed. The Committee received assurance that the Trusts framework was being refreshed following the extensive surveying of the school health population. A deep dive had been undertaken by the Medical Director for each re-audit with an amber rating; quality improvement activity was underway to address the varying issues for each re-audit. A particular issue was raised relating to 3 female service users in Elmridge ward causing challenges relating to self-harm and staff sickness within the ward, further increasing the inconsistent use of bank and agency staffing. Conversations with Commissioners were focussed around early intervention opportunities to begin to manage this issue differently. The figure of upheld complaints had stayed the same whilst the number of complaints alone had increased; recognising that not all complaints were required to be upheld. Whilst improvement to core skills compliance was noted, there was still a requirement for further progression. An improvement plan from the Mental Health network would be reported to the Sub-Committee at the earliest opportunity and an update provided through the Chairs report.
People Plan 4.1, 4.2 Positive assurances relating to greater engagement with the Networks were noted as an improved process highlighting their contribution to the plan. Positive works that had been introduced had a positive impact of the delivery of the plan, in particular celebrating success across the Trust. The staff engagement survey would be completed on a 2-monthly basis moving forward for relevance and consistency. The positive increase in contribution to the Trusts staff survey was noted, in particular within Southport & Formby services which had resulted in lower levels of sickness; the opportunity to adopt this across all areas was highlighted. Concerns around the content of the staff survey response were outlined; a focussed action plan was to be targeted linking into the relevant areas within the People Plan. A feeling of a lack of
engagement with Liverpool prisons services due to the considerable tendering within this service was noted. The consideration of a clear engagement strategy was discussed and the Quality Committee would keep oversight of staff engagement going forward. Positive intelligence was being received through the good practice visits and the importance of escalating any issues following these was noted. A discussion was had around the Trust’s requirement to put further work into reviewing service challenges at greater depth to gain the required improvements. A key area to focus attention upon with 2018/19 is the focus of attention of support to the Trust’s workforce. The Committee positively noted a discussion around requirement for focus on early intervention for the specific cohort of service users with complex needs as work was being undertaken by the Chief Operating Officer to support staff in understanding their contribution to the pathway.
Apprenticeship Levy 4.1 Assurance was received around the delivery of the apprenticeship levy programme and detailed plans had been developed, confirming the significant opportunities and benefits within nursing associates and degrees. The opportunity to utilise the levy monies for highly skilled posts such as consultants was outlined. The programme had seen positive engagement with the networks. The need for pace around the delivery of the apprenticeship programme was highlighted. The risk regarding not gaining the impact from this programme following the input of £1.2m had been minimised through the development of various apprenticeships and an opportunity was noted to use the quality improvement methodology for a rapid programme to inform how to utilise the levy. This was noted as a positive vehicle for innovation within services.
Quality and Safety Sub-Committee Chairs report
1.1, 1.2, 3.1 Recovery plans were in place relating to complaints from the Networks which would be reported to the next Committee. Positive assurance was noted relating to complaints at Guild, highlighting that there had been no outstanding complaints reported to the last Sub-Committee. The Director of Nursing had requested a recovery plan to improve the position around overdue 3 and 7 day Datix incident reviews and an updated was expected at the next Sub-Committee.
Mental Health Law Sub-Committee Chairs Report
1.1 Concerns were raised relating to compliance with datasets and remedial work was underway to improve the Mental Health Act compliance, in particular around the recording of when rights have been verbally read to patients. This would be reported back to the next Sub-Committee.
People Sub-Committee Chairs Report
4.1, 4.2 The Sub-Committee had seen significant improvement following the effectiveness review, in particular with the Networks approach to key issues within the remit of HR. On-going challenges were noted around the roll-out of e-rostering and an update would be provided at the next Committee following the meeting between the HR Director and Finance to address this.
Reducing Restrictive Practice
1.1 The Committee noted the positive assurance received around the Trusts process in place to monitor and increase quality surveillance. A deep dive was being undertaken in this area as part of a planned series; PICU and Older Adult mental health wards were being addressed within this review. Differences between genders were noted as an outcome of the data review; and considerations around quality improvements to address this in a different way were being considered. Positive assurance was noted around the low number of prone restraints. Assurance was noted around the next steps following this review, in particular quality improvement programme relating to perception of restrictive intervention. A further report would be brought back to the Committee.
Risk Assurance 1.1, 1.2, 3.1, 4.1, 4.2, 7.3
Positive assurance was received in a number of areas, in particular around the delivery of the Apprenticeship Levy, the People Programme and the Trust’s processes that were in place to monitor and increase quality surveillance in respect of reducing restrictive practice. Limited assurance was noted around the compliance with Mental Health Law and monitoring by the Committee would continue.

Strong assurance was noted that the risk relating to the use of non-clinical rooms for non-clinical purposes following the Southport & Formby services transition had not occurred anywhere else within the Trust due to the tight framework of controls. A longer term solution to address fire safety assessments of shared properties was considered outlining a contractual requirement and penalties if this was not adhered to. A breakdown of the risk detail would be taken to the Sub-Committee to review the level of risk. 3 anti-ligature audits remained outstanding which was being addressed by Network leads; assurance was noted around a robust process in place for next year.
The risk regarding the achievement of the delivery of the perinatal unit was noted; the Chief Executive assured that this had been discussed with the Chief Executive at LTH and barriers would be addressed to continue with full access. There was limited assurance relating to the Carbon Reduction target being achieved due to the changes with national targets; a briefing paper would be provided to the Director of Finance to make a judgement on whether this would be achieved. The Committee was assured that the amendment to some of the EPR programme dates had no contractual implications for the wider programme and were due to staff capabilities and the Trust was still intending to ‘Go Live’ on the agreed date. The Committee was assured that a very minor risk was posed relating to a cyber security threat within new mobile phone contract chips and the Trust was happy with the assurance around this. An agreement had been made to extend the EMIS contract with Southport + Formby Trust. The Shadow Board had met and was due to meet again; the establishment of the name of the company had been agreed by the Chief Executive and Trust Chair following Trust Board and significant work was progressing to finalise budget allocation, the completion of the TUPE transfer and HR issues, in particular around the NHS Pension Scheme. The importance of a financial replacement agreement was highlighted.

The Committee was assured that the Trust had reported compliance with all NHSI indicators in the month with the exception of EIS, of which appropriate measures was being complied with, and NHSI remained supportive of the recovery. The Trust was intending to achieve the Q4 EIS target. Issues around contractual performance were being discussed and managed through a deep dive activity by the Board, in particular relating to ADHD, CAMHS Tier 3 and the Psychology SLA with LTH. Assurance on the action plans would be reported to the Sub-Committee. Discussions around the mitigation of the risk to the financial position continued within the networks and a particular risk relating to the Mental Health networks achievement of stretch targets was noted regarding staffing and OAP’s issues. The 0-19 decision had posed a significant impact to the network structure and the financial implications of this. Assurance was noted around the Trusts improvement to 89.4% in December in the 4-hour target in relation to patients requiring Mental Health assessment which outlined an improvement of over 20%. The Committee noted the positive momentum in the process for the demobilisation of the HMP Liverpool contract however a potential risk was identified regarding the implications of the TUPE.
There had been an increase in complaints and responses to complaints within the Mental Health Network which were being reviewed against the positive good practice work at Guild where the Trust was compliant with complaint response times which the Trust intended to replicate across the Network. A key theme to discuss within the effectiveness review of the Sub-Committee was noted as the tightening of attendance to ensure valuable contribution and ability to hold key discussions.
Delivering The Strategy (DTS)
5.2 There was a risk to some schemes which were RAG rated as red, in particular the mental health schemes. The PMO team was supporting the teams to develop Quality Impact Assessments. Additional work was to be undertaken within benefit tracking activity; a benefits realisation tracker would be launched in the new financial year and would be tracked throughout the programme. The Committee received assurance in the enhancement of the Quality Assessment process and a further focus on identifying benefits from the outset. Against the 15.1million target; current schemes identified expected to deliver £13.9m with a gap in year of £1.2m; the pipeline schemes that mitigate this gap have some concerns regarding the ability for delivery. The 201819 DTS programme had been reported to the Business Development and Delivery Sub-Committee and assurance on the framework to align CIP’s to this programme would be provided once the scale of the CIP challenge was known. The gap in the CIP was factored into the fore-cast for the year-end position. A paper would go to SLT to review the projection of the 2 year financial plan and the content of what would be explored, in particular sickness and OAPS. The Trust was expecting a Board Development session to discuss the shaping of the plan. The Committee received assurance in the reduction of the OAP’s figure in month from 21 to 19.
Workforce Performance Reporting
4.1 Work continued to enforce compliance with relevant legislation around safer recruitment. Work was underway to continue to improve recruiting timescales, which had positively decreased from 60 days to 41 to recruit. The Committee was assured that there was no loss of money to the Trust however there had been no improvement in figures for overpayments within the financial year following the introduction of updated policies and training. The issue remained as compliance with timely ESR reporting and the Trust was satisfied that it had the appropriate controls in place to mitigate this issue. There had been an improvement within the Networks regarding ESR performance which had not been reflected in the report but confidence in the ability to improve the position moving forward was highlighted.
The remedial actions to address challenges were being reported to the Board through the workforce quarterly report and discussions at the People Sub-Committee and Network Leadership groups continued. The Trust expected an improvement following the introduction of the longer notice period staff required to provide.
STP Accountability update
5.2 A discussion was had around the impact of the STP on the Committee and how the STP Board would hold the Trust to account, in particular relating to the impact and complexity of agreeing and maintaining a shared control total, and the additional pressures to the Trust following this. There was a potential risk that transformational funding would not be provided if all organisations did not agree a control total. If the whole system agreed sign-off for a control total and this was successful, accountability would commence from April 1st 2018 and the ACS partnerships and organisations would be held to account collectively for the delivery of improved quality and financial performance. A piece of work would be considered by the Chief Finance Officer to understand the total spend relating to Mental Health services, and the consideration of areas the Trust could drive improved outcomes, recognising the funding challenges.
Risk Assurance All There were a number of risks elevated which would be reflected in the next Board Assurance Framework.
Positive assurances raised throughout discussions were noted, in particular the Trusts improvement up to 89.4% in the
4-hour target relating to patients requiring mental health assessments, the controls evidenced within the DTS programme
and the continued progress to ensure compliance with safe recruitment legislation.
The key risks and gaps in assurances identified from the discussions and papers presented were agreed by the committee in particular as the site assessments issues within estates, understanding the risks regarding the RRCS transition and replacement arrangements, the potential absence of VAT recoveries landing in year and the impact of this on the achievement of the control total, the Mental Health’s contribution to the year-end position regarding OAP’s and staffing issues and the limited assurance relating to the delivery of the CIP programmes within year.

1.0 Introduction The Quality and Safety Report is a new report, in its fourth iteration, submitted to the Trust Board to provide information and assurance.
2.0 Headline areas
Safe
In the Safe domain, attention is drawn to the decrease in serious incidents. This change in trend is due to a noticeably lower reported number of incidents in December 2017. The regular thematic review of serious incidents was received by the Quality Committee in January 2018. The second area of focus in this domain is violence to staff and restraint (which are linked issues). The Quality and Safety Sub-committee is receiving a series of deep dive presentations into violence and restrictive practices across inpatient units utilising an internal benchmarking format. The Quality Committee received two of these presentations in January 2018. In recognition of the need to take stock of the continuing challenge to deliver improvement, the Associate Director of Safety has commissioned a full review of the total approach to violence reduction and management within the Trust with a view to a refreshed programme being launched in April 2018 (the next quarter being taken to fully review the programme and involve clinical staff fully in the review). Effective In the Effective domain, attention is drawn to the clinical audit report which highlights current progress of the programme. The Mental Health Harm Free Care rate remains below the Trust aspiration and this is linked to violence, restraint and medication incidents. Caring In the Caring domain, attention is drawn to the positive Friends and Family Test results which have been above the target since January 2017. Responsive In the Responsive domain, attention is drawn to the notable increase in complains. This position is reflected nationally, and is also considered to be partly attributable to the new hearing feedback model where the Trust has been actively seeking out feedback from people who use services, their families and carers. The CQC Community Mental Health Survey was published in November 2017, and will be scrutinised at the Quality and Safety Sub-committee alongside the quarter three Hearing Feedback Report. Well Led In the Well Led domain, attention is drawn to the areas of under-performance in some Core Skills and Essential Skills subjects. Concern also exists around the compliance level for appraisals. Further detail on these areas will be included in the Workforce Report. The number of overdue incident reports is increasing; Networks have been instructed to take action on this through the Quality and Safety Sub-committee.
3.0 Conclusion
The Trust Board is asked to receive and note this report.

Executive Summary
This is the fourth Quality and Safety Report for the Trust Board. Prior to review by the Board, the Quality and Safety Sub-committee receives the report for further scrutiny and challenge to Networks and Support Services. In the Safe domain, attention is drawn to the decrease in serious incidents. This change in trend is due to a noticeably lower reported number of incidents in December 2017. The regular thematic review of serious incidents was received by the Quality Committee in January 2018. The second area of focus in this domain is violence to staff and restraint (which are linked issues). The Quality and Safety Sub-committee is receiving a series of deep dive presentations into violence and restrictive practices across inpatient units utilising an internal benchmarking format. The Quality Committee received two of these presentations in January 2018. In recognition of the need to take stock of the continuing challenge to deliver improvement, the Associate Director of Safety has commissioned a full review of the total approach to violence reduction and management within the Trust with a view to a refreshed programme being launched in April 2018 (the next quarter being taken to fully review the programme and involve clinical staff fully in the review). In the Effective domain, attention is drawn to the clinical audit report which highlights current progress of the programme. The Mental Health Harm Free Care rate remains below the Trust aspiration and this is linked to violence, restraint and medication incidents. In the Caring domain, attention is drawn to the positive Friends and Family Test results which have been above the target since January 2017. In the Responsive domain, attention is drawn to the notable increase in complains. This position is reflected nationally, and is also considered to be partly attributable to the new hearing feedback model where the Trust has been actively seeking out feedback from people who use services, their families and carers. The CQC Community Mental Health Survey was published in November 2017, and will be scrutinised at the Quality and Safety Sub-committee alongside the quarter three Hearing Feedback Report. In the Well Led domain, attention is drawn to the areas of under-performance in some Core Skills and Essential Skills subjects. Concern also exists around the compliance level for appraisals. Further detail on these areas will be included in the Workforce Report. The number of overdue incident reports is increasing; Networks have been instructed to take action on this through the Quality and Safety Sub-committee.

CQC Rating: Requires Improvement
This section of the report looks at the domain of safety – that services are safe, and people are protected from abuse and avoidable harm. The following indicators are covered in the report:

Page 6 of 35
Serious Incidents A serious incident is defined as “acts or omissions in care that result in; unexpected or avoidable death, unexpected or avoidable injury resulting in serious harm - including those where the injury required treatment to prevent death or serious harm, abuse, Never Events, incidents that prevent (or threaten to prevent) the ability to continue to deliver healthcare services and incidents that cause widespread public concern resulting in a loss of confidence in healthcare services.” The number of serious incidents fell throughout 2014-2016, however the long term reduction has now plateaued over the rolling 12 month period through 2017 with a noticeable decrease in the last month of the year. There is no theme or trend to this sudden decrease, it is believed to be an exceptional occurrence. During December 2017, the following serious incidents were reported:
• Death (suspected suicide) of a patient under the care of the Community Mental
Health Team (CMHT) in Blackburn; • Death (suspected suicide) of a patient under the care of the Mindsmatter Service in
St Helens. In all cases, a formal investigation is now underway and the incidents have been reported as required under the NHS Serious Incident Framework. Work is underway to improve the action planning process following incidents. During January workshops will be held to explore improvements to recommendation writing with discussions ongoing internally and with commissioners around different approaches to action planning, by taking a greater quality improvement approach where appropriate.

RIDDOR Incidents The Trust is required to report certain incidents under the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 2013. These notifications are received by the Care Quality Commission and Health and Safety Executive. A RIDDOR incident is defined as an incident were someone has died or has been injured because of a work-related accident including specified injuries to workers (certain fractures, amputations, loss of sight, crush injury to head or torso, serious burns, loss of consciousness, etc.), injury causing absence of work for more than 7 days, injuries to non-workers requiring transfer to hospital, occupational diseases and certain dangerous occurrences. The number of RIDDOR incidents shows a decrease during the year. The predominance of incidents relate to absence of work of over 7 days and originates from violence to staff. During December 2017, the following RIDDOR incidents were reported:
• Injury to a staff member from a slip during restraint resulting in an absence from work of over seven days;
• Injury to a staff member’s hand during restraint resulting in an absence from work of over seven days;
• Injury to a staff member from a slip on icy ground resulting in a fracture to the foot.

Never Events Never events are serious incidents that are entirely preventable as guidance, or safety recommendations providing strong systemic protective barriers, are available at a national level, and should have been implemented by all healthcare providers. Each never event type has the potential to cause serious patient harm or death. However, serious harm or death is not required to have happened as a result of a specific incident occurrence for that incident to be categorised as a never event. The Trust reported one Never Event in September 2017, which related to an incident in June 2017. This related to an overdose of methotrexate in rheumatology services. The report is due for completion in February 2018 and will be reviewed by both the Quality and Safety Sub-committee and Serious Incident and Learning Panel.
Serious HCAI Incidents A serious HCAI incident is considered to be an avoidable incident of Clostridium Difficile (C.Diff), Meticillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA), Methicillin-Susceptible Staphylococcus Aureus (MSSA), Gram-negative bacteria, Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE), or another infection control incident resulting in a ward closure. The number of HCAI incidents remains low with no exceptions to report. The Infection Prevention and Control Team continue to drive improvements in reporting and compliance with the Essential Steps Hand Hygiene Audit and to drive forward the annual staff flu vaccination campaign. At the time of writing, the flu vaccination uptake was 66.4% for frontline staff & 62.3% for all staff (the target is 70% for frontline staff by end of February 2018). It should be noted that during January 2018 a number of HCAI incidents occurred resulting in ward closures to admissions and discharges; details will be included in the next report.

Pressure Ulcer Incidents – Potentially Avoidable Grade 3 and Grade 4 Pressure ulcers are injuries to the skin and underlying tissue, primarily caused by prolonged pressure on the skin. Pressure ulcers can affect any part of the body that's put under pressure. They're most common on bony parts of the body and often develop gradually, but can sometimes form in a few hours. In a grade three pressure ulcer, skin loss occurs throughout the entire thickness of the skin and the underlying tissue is also damaged. A grade four pressure ulcer is the most severe type of ulcer. The skin is severely damaged and the surrounding tissue begins to die (tissue necrosis). The underlying muscles, or bone, may also be damaged. People with grade four pressure ulcers have a high risk of developing a life-threatening infection The number of pressure ulcer incidents increased over the summer period but has declined. There have been no reported potentially avoidable incidents in the last month. In December there has been a significant reduction in all reported pressure ulcers of 53%. The Safety Senate model has rolled out in 2 or the 3 localities and Southport and Formby roll out is planned for February 2018. The Safety Cross is fully implemented and Longridge Community Hospital are celebrating over 150 days pressure free (all grades on existing patients).
Physical Violence to Staff Incidents Physical violence to staff includes any degree of harm, including near miss incidents, where staff are physical assaulted. Incidents are recorded by staff on the Trust’s quality governance system (Datix). The number of incidents of physical violence to staff increased notably in 2014 and remained increased since, with a further increase during 2017/18 which appears to have levelled during the last few months. Hot spots have been identified in older adult wards and psychiatric intensive care units (PICUs). A deep dive into the data for PICUs and older adult wards has been presented to the Quality and Safety Sub-committee and Quality Committee. Further deep dives are planned for early 2018 covering adult wards and forensic wards. Details of the improvement work underway is covered in the Quality Plan Update later in this report.

Use of Restraint The use of restraint shows a notable increase. This is closely linked to the increase in violence and the work to address violence includes restraint reduction as an outcome measure. The hot spot areas mirror those for violence and aggression mentioned earlier in the report. The improvement work planned for violence reduction includes work on restraint reduction and the promotion of least restrictive practice.
Suicide (Reported as a Serious Incident) The overall rate of suicide incidents (deemed to meet the criteria for a serious incident) shows a static position rolling 12 months with April 2017 and October 2017 seeing the highest reported number over that period. An emerging area of potential concern is suicide soon after discharge; the Mental Health Network is undertaking exploration of this with support from the Safety and Quality Governance Department. This will be reported here when complete (expected at the Quality and Safety Sub-committee in March 2018).

Staffing Incidents – One or Less Qualified Staff on Duty Instances of one qualified staff on duty are reported and escalated in accordance with the Staffing for Quality and Safety Escalation Procedure. This allows managers to put into place mitigations by moving staff, supporting the area with senior nurses or using bank and agency staff. There has been a notable decrease in reported incidents which is a reflection of the increased scrutiny led by the Executive Director of Nursing and Quality through the Staffing for Quality and Safety Group and a task and finish group led by the Executive Director looking at specific wards. Networks continue to produce monthly reports to this group on progress. All reported incidents occurred on mental health wards (none in Longridge Community Hospital). The predominance (over 50%) of incidents occurred in three wards at Guild Lodge: Fellside Ward (28), ABI Step Down (19) and Forrest Beck (16).
Staffing Incidents – Red Flags All staff are encouraged to use the Red Flag facility on the eRostering Safe Care system to alert managers to staffing incidents such as low staffing numbers, missed breaks, etc. The majority of Ref Flag incidents relates to the above issue of one or fewer qualified staff on duty. All reported incidents occurred on mental health wards (none in Longridge Community Hospital). The predominance (over 50%) of incidents occurred in three wards at Guild Lodge: Fellside Ward (28), ABI Step Down (19) and Forrest Beck (16) and the Orchard Unit at Lancaster (18). Staffing pressures continue to exist. In the Community and Wellbeing Network, the Pennine and North locality is experiencing challenges with district nursing staffing which is being mitigates by cross-team support. The Central locality Dietetics and Podiatry services are also experiencing challenges which is being mitigated by bank and agency. The Mental Health Network is also experiencing challenges in recruiting allied health professional roles for inpatient services.

Dunsop, Byron PICU, Elmridge and Marshaw, Dutton, Calder and Scarisbrick Wards all reported over 40% usage in the last report. The Executive Director of Nursing and Quality is continuing the task and finish group to review particular challenges on inpatient wards. Focused support from Matrons and Senior Nurses is being provided to the wards at Guild Lodge with particular challenges including Elmridge and Dutton (which experienced a serious incident of violence during January 2018).

Mortality Review – Numbers of Deaths and Reviews The Trust is required to declare how many deaths were deemed as avoidable. Deaths are reviewed through two processes: the serious incident (SI) process and the structured case judgement (SCJ) process. The SI process determines whether a death was predictable and/or preventable. The SCJ process determines whether a death was due to a problem in care. Neither of these terms are legal terms or formal causes of death. Since April 2017, one death reviewed through the serious incident process was deemed predictable and preventable. No structured case judgement reviews have taken place – a cohort of reviewers have been recruited and the process will commence in January 2018. The Trust is engaged in the Learning Disability Mortality Review Programme (LeDeR) and the Child Death Overview Panel process.
Mortality Review – Classification of Deaths The Trust records deaths as incidents, where appropriate and in accordance with the Incident Procedure. A daily review process, supported by a weekly review panel, determines which deaths meet the threshold for a serious incident and (when established) which deaths will be subject to a structured case judgement review. Deaths are recorded against one of four categories: Expected Natural (i.e. terminal illness), Expected Unnatural (i.e. drug misuse), Unexpected Natural (i.e. sudden cardiac condition) and Unexpected Unnatural (i.e. suicide). This framework was developed by Mazars in their investigation into deaths at Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust and helps determine which deaths require further review.

Clinical Audit Summary Report Completed Q3 priorities Community & Wellbeing, Pressure Ulcer (Southport & Formby): 54% compliance. A legacy pressure ulcer action plan was developed by the previous provider (Southport and Ormskirk NHS Trust) following a CQC inspection of their organisation in April 2016. This action plan has been reviewed and it was identified that to provide assurance against the action plan in relation to risk assessment and management of pressure ulcers, a clinical audit was required. The baseline audit found there was little consistency with the records for each team and therefore a review is currently underway within the Network to ensure they are fit for purpose. Children & Young People Wellbeing, Restrictive Practices - 62% compliance. The audit provides partial assurance that the guidance has been implemented within the Children’s Integrated Therapies and Nursing teams of the Children & Young People’s Wellbeing Network. Further work is required regarding the documentation of individualised risk assessments. Deep Dive Process If full compliance (80%) is not achieved following the full audit cycle, a more intense piece of work is undertaken by the Medical Director, Head of Clinical Audit and Head of Quality Improvement. This is to ensure the correct support is given to services to improve the quality of care delivered. Actions from this are tracked through the Quality and Safety Sub-committee. During quarter 2, this affected the Carers Re-audit, Clozaril Re-audit, Diabetes Re-audit and Rapid Tranquilisation Audit as part of the POMH national programme. A quality improvement plan is currently in draft for all these programmes and will be reported through in detail to the Quality and Safety Sub-committee.

Friends and Family Test – Results A key part of the Trust’s real time feedback process is the Friends and Family Test (FFT). The Friends and Family Test is a tool that supports the fundamental principle that people who use NHS services should have the opportunity to provide feedback on their experience. It asks people if they would recommend the services they have used and offers a range of responses. When combined with supplementary follow-up questions, the FFT provides a mechanism to highlight both good and poor patient experience. The Friends and Family Test overall response rate has been at or above the target of 95% for 11 of the last 12 months with the target achieved and maintained since January 2017. Data is available one month in arrears due to national reporting dates.
Friends and Family Test – Submissions The number of submissions has decreased over the long term, with a noticeable increase in November. This is likely to be an exceptional month father than any emerging trend. Data is available one month in arrears due to national reporting dates.

CQC Community Mental Health Survey The CQC use national surveys to find out about the experience of service users receiving care and treatment from healthcare organisations and mental healthcare providers. CQC asked people to answer questions about different aspects of their care and treatment. Based on their responses, CQC gave each NHS Trust a score out of 10 for each question (the higher the score the better). Each trust also received a rating of ‘About the same’, ‘Better’ or ‘Worse’. Responses were received from 172 people who use services of the Trust. The Trust was rated as “about the same” for all ten questions and each of their sub-questions.

Complaints The number of complaints has noticeably increased over the 12 months. This reflects a national picture and the work done within the Trust to increase access to the feedback process for patients in services with typically low complaint levels (such as prison healthcare and secure mental health). The predominant themes (from the latest quarterly hearing feedback report) are in relation to access to treatment or drugs (22%), admission and discharge (17.5%), communication (14%), appointments including delays and cancellations (10%) and clinical treatment (9%). Despite the overall increase, the number of upheld or partially upheld complaints remains consistent although there is a noticeable increase in October which is likely to be an exceptional month. The Quality and Safety Sub-committee will review the quarter three Hearing Feedback Report in February 2018.

Care Quality Commission (CQC) Rating) The Trust was last inspected in September 2016 and the overall rating was Good. Two core services were rated as Requires Improvement – community inpatient services and community health services. The CQC inspected healthcare services at HMP Liverpool in September 2017 in a process separate from the main Trust inspection and as part of a joint inspection of HM Inspectorate of Prisons who inspected the prison. The final report was published on 15 December 2017. The joint HMIP/CQC report is due for publication in January 2018.
Core Skills The overall Core Skills rate is above the Trust target of 85% however performance remains below target in several individual subjects and in some individual teams. There has been significant and sustained improvement to Core Skills compliance over the past 18 months. Networks continue to take action to improve compliance in those subjects still underperforming, which predominantly relate to courses that require face-to-face attendance away from the workplace.

Overdue Incident Reviews The number of overdue incident reports (particularly 7 Day Reviews for incidents categorised as Level 1, 2 or 3) remains high with no improvement over the last 12 months. Targeted work has taken place within the Networks and has seen improvement in both the Community and Wellbeing Network and Children and Young People’s Network. The Mental Health Network accounts for the vast predominance of overdue incidents. The Network continue to seek a recovery to this position. The Safety and Quality Governance Department continue to scrutinise all Level 4 and Level 5 incidents daily and track the completion of 3 Day Reviews, which offers assurance that the more serious incidents are being progressed in a timely manner.

In all cases a review of proportionate scale has been commissioned. The findings from each review are individually fed back to the person raising the concern if they have provided their name. The findings from every concern is summarised in the Quality Matters bulletin. The themes from concerns over the year to date are management culture and conduct, demand, staffing and violence. The Mindsmatter service has reported a number of concerns, mainly through Dear David, over the year and support is being provided to the Network to help them identify and address more concerns locally.

Quality Plan Summary Report The following exceptions are provided (using November data):
• Reducing violence and aggression – significant work is underway however the outcome of a reduction is not being realised across all services. Detailed deep dive presentations are underway to the sub-committee and have also been reported to the Quality Committee. The Associate Director of Safety and Quality Governance has commissioned a review of the totality of the Trust approach to preventing and managing violence and aggression. A refreshed Trust-wide programme will be developed, drawing on the best practice in these programmes and replace all existing initiatives and training with one single and consistent model.
• Staffing for Quality and Safety – significant work is underway as reported separately, however challenges remain in many services. • Appraisal – there is no information in Life QI. Overall performance is 42.14%. • Core Skills - overall performance is 92.07% however the Trust is below target in several subjects. • Supervision – work is underway to develop and implement the long term and interim technical solutions; however, data provided to the CQC shows
overall supervision at 71% with some services as low as 41% (Community Mental Health Services for Adults). • Mental Health Law – the programme has delivered its improvement work however compliance remains low; percentage of patients given rights
within 24 of admission (31%), percentage of CTO patients with rights in place at the begging of the month (70%). The Executive Director of Nursing and Quality and Associate Director of Safety and Quality Governance will be holding confirm and challenge meetings with each priority lead in January 2018 to ascertain progress.

Appendix 1 – Extracts from the Quality and Safety Surveillance Report and Mental Health Law Surveillance Report
The Quality and Safety Surveillance Report is designed to provide the Committees and Subcommittee of the Trust Board with a range of indicators that provide assurance and/or early warning escalation of risk. Risk indicators are used to draw attention to areas of focus. Green flags indicate a measure that is on target or where performance is in-line with accepted levels. Yellow flags indicate a measure for close watch (perhaps because of a worsening position) or where a measure is off target but has no immediate risk. Red flags indicate a measure that presents an immediate and/or high level risk. The Quality and Safety Tile, in the front of this report, is a headline summary of key indicators.
In addition, a Mental Health Law Surveillance Report is produced alongside Network-level Quality Surveillance Report.
The data tables from the Trust Quality and Safety Surveillance Report (monthly) and Mental Health Law Surveillance Report (quarterly) are included in this Quality and Safety Report for additional information and context.

Recovery Plan
Whilst it would appear that there is potential for the gap to be bridged through the plan, this is not without significant risk. Delivery will only be achieved with a considerable coordinated and sustained effort across the organisation. The plan will continue to be refined and presented in more detail to the Financial Recovery Group along with the actions required.
Revised year end control totals are being provided to networks in line with the recovery plan and will require:• Progress and delivery of ward staffing actions• Implementation of the recovery plan.• Continuing to pursue VAT reclaims and consider alternatives.• Progress on land sales.• Satisfactory resolution of disputes.
Forecasting
After adjusting for impairments of £0.2m the deficit for month 9 is a -£1.3m which excludes year to date planned Sustainability and Transformation Funding of c£1.4m, against a plan surplus to date of £1.2m. Performance is therefore £2.5m behind the control total and £1.1m behind with STF. The position continues to be driven by staffing pressures in ward and prison areas which is also impacting on delivery against planned cost improvement programmes, particularly ward staffing. In addition, expenditure is exceeding funding on OAPs resulting in current and forecast pressures. Performance does however show an improvement on the Month 8 in month position of £0.6m and an in month surplus over plan of £0.3m. Unmitigated projections indicate a gap of c£4.2m (£6.4m without STF), which again shows an improvement over the month 8 position of c£0.5m. Though improvements in performance are evident, continued delivery will require sustained and coordinated responses with robust management and oversight. After taking in to account £1.7m of disposals, which are accounted for after EBITDA, EBITDA is broadly in line with I&E Margin. The new Use of Resources (UoR) metric is rated at 2, consistent with month 8, should the Trust meet its financial plans and targets the Trust will achieve a rating of 2, see below.

Summary (continued)
Progress against the capital programme has begun to accelerate with expenditure at £3.0m against the original profile of £7.3m. Despite the resolution of a number of issues a reduced level of spend on the 17/18 programme would now appear inevitable, particularly on the Inpatient and Perinatal schemes. Forecasts are in line with reported delays and NHSI have been notified with regard to potential underspends and PDC implications. The Trust continues to work with contractors to ensure the planned endpoint for these important schemes remains on track.
The improving I&E position yields a rating of 3 and a Capital Service rating of 3 maintaining the overall UoR to a 2 ( 2 at Month 8). Assuming current pressures and risks are addressed through the recovery plan and I&E performance achieves (or exceeds) forecast the Trust will achieve a UoR of 2 in line with the plan. However, though forecast would achieve the overall target rating, Capital Service is based on EBITDA and since part of the Trusts recovery plan is based on disposals (which are excluded from EBITDA) the Trust is not forecast to achieve planned Capital Service. The Trust is also forecast to exceed its liquidity and slip against it's planned Agency target. The risks presented by the current financial position and the impact on our outturn use of resources risk rating will be modelled alongside the liquidity position for the FRG.Should conditions persist and costs not be managed within the control total then the resulting deterioration might trigger a review of our segmentation, although NHSI have confirmed that there is no change at present.
Use of Resources (UoR) risk ratings
Capital and Financing
The capital position continues to offset the I&E position and pressures on working capital leaving, cash broadly in line with plan. Assuming that proposed management action to bring financial performance back in to line is achieved, given current capital forecasts, the external funding anticipated for the inpatients programme and the anticipated disposals the cash forecast is significantly better than plan (£9.7m) - see SoCF and Liquidity. Given the risks a more detailed assessment of the short term cash position will be presented to the next FRG.
CIPs
Liquidity
At month 9 with CIPs of £10.0m against a plan of £11.1m the Trust is c£1.1m behind plan, an improvement of £0.2m on month 8 (£1.3m behind plan). The adverse variance is mainly due to the continued lack of performance on Run Rate Reduction Programmes on staffing pressures. Compensating schemes have, and continue to be, developed and with c£1.4m of schemes transacted in December confidence in forecasts is increasing. The network management team continue to be support to implement measures aimed at improving the position. These risks are reflected in the forecasts.

Income – Year to date changes from plan are dominated by OAPs (£0.9m), STF monies (-£1.4m), and contract variancies (Mental Health - £3.0m, Community - £1.6m, with reduction in NHSE -£0.7m, Councils - £1.4m). There are also increases in AHSN (£0.4m) and R&D (0.5m) income.
These issues also dominate the base year-end position with STF rising to -£2.1m and net contract variations of £2.6m, plus OAPs of £1.1m. AHSN increases to £1.7m above plan.The upside assumes the £2.1m STF monies and an additional £0.3m of income.
Pay - The year to date pay exceeds plan by £5.5m. £3.2m of this is adult ward staffing, with £1.1m on Secure Wards. There is £0.6m of under recovered pay CIPs offset by £1.4m of reserves. Contract variations add £2.2m to pay, compensated in part by Corporate underspends of £0.8m.
The base year-end variance of £6.2m reflects the same issues, adult wards (£4.2m), Secure (£1.5m), CIP slippage (£0.8m) and commissioner developments (£2.8m), partly offset by reserves of £1.7m and corporate vacancies of £1.1m.The upside assumes £1.6m of the recovery measure modelled through pay costs, which are outside of ward areas.
Non-Pay - Year to date non-pay is £1.2m overspent, dominated by OAPs (£1.8m), with developments being offset by reserves underspends (£0.8m).
The base outturn is £4.9m above plan for non-pay. OAPS is £2.1m of this but we see significant increases in non-pay on the back of developments £1.4m, and an increase in AHSN spend of £0.8m as its programmes are back loaded.The upside position brings in £1.3m of non-pay recovery measures into the position.
Capital charges are in line with plan, with the exception of £0.5m for land sales in the base outturn forecast. This increases to £1.7m in the upside.

Debt Movement
• Debt levels are slightly higher than last month with some increase in NHS debt, mainly OAPs (settled in January) and CQUIN (a national issue, now resolved), and some increases on current council debt.
• Of the NHS 90+ debt c£1.3m relates to recharges (expected to be paid), c£1.6m to current year Block/CQUIN/OAPs/NCAs and c£1m to 2016/17 disputes. All outstanding disputes have now been submitted for mediation.
• Local Authority 90+ debt is mainly staffing recharges (expected to be paid).
*Note that along with phasing adjustments, contract variations and accruals, 2017/18 STF
Cash Variances
• Cash is broadly in line with plan. The capital position continues to offset the I&E position and pressures on working capital.
• High debtors (£2.5m - see below), and accrued contact variations and adjustments (£2.8m -includes STF) are supressing cash.
• Given the external funding anticipated for the inpatients programme and the anticipated disposals the cash forecast is significantly better than plan (£9.7m).
• The forecast assumes that management actions to bring the I&E position back in to line with plan are achieved.
• The key risk to the forecast will be the disposals of Ribbleton, Ridge Lea and Westfields, but even if these don't manifest cash will be above plan assuming other I&E targets are met. A more detailed cash sensitivity analysis will be presented to the next FRG.

Finance and use of resources is one theme of 5 in the Single Oversight Framework. Segmentation and therefore autonomy and support is dependent on performance across all themes.
Note that under the Single Oversight Framework a score of 1 is now the best rating and 4 the worst. A rating of 4 on any metric or an average rating of 3 triggers a concern and a potential support need.
The improving I&E position yields a rating of 3 and a Capital Service rating of 3 maintaining the overall UoR to a 2 ( 2 at Month 8). Assuming current pressures and risks are addressed through the recovery plan and I&E performance achieves (or exceeds) forecast the Trust will achieve a UoR of 2 in line with the plan. However, though forecast would achieve the overall target rating, Capital Service is based on EBITDA and since part of the Trusts recovery plan is based on disposals (which are excluded from EBITDA) the Trust is not forecast to achieve planned Capital Service. The Trust is also forecast to exceed its liquidity and slip against it's planned Agency target. Should conditions persist and costs not be managed within the control total then the resulting deterioration might trigger a review of our segmentation.
• Capital Service is currently a 3 against a plan of 2, an increase in operating performance of c£1.6m would be required to increase the rating to 2.• Liquidity is currently a 1 against a plan of 2, a deterioration in the liquidity metric of c£4.4m would be required to reduce the rating to 2. • I&E Margin rating is currently 3 against a plan of 2, an increase in operating performance of c£1.3m would be required to increase the rating to 2 - Note that the adjusted deficit of -
£1.3m is £2.5m behind the RCT (£1.1m exc STF)).• I&E Variance from Plan is currently 3, an increase in operating performance of c£2.5m would be required to increase the rating to 2.• Agency is currently 2 based on a metric of 17%, a decrease in agency costs of c£1m would be required to increase rating to 1.

Staffing Spend
• Overspends in pay are being driven by occupancy and acuity on wards in both Adult and Secure services.
• Most trust CIPs manifest in pay and the current slippage will manifest as overspends in pay.
• Many community based services are experiencing underspends.
Agency Spend
• Agency expenditure is dominated by medical and dental expenditure, which is broadly constant but significant and increasing.
• Nursing (both qualified and unqualified) is more volatile and reflects the flow of occupancy and acuity on the wards.
• Overall expenditure is exceeding the agency control total, by c£1.3m year to date, 17%.

5 Corporate Services is net of the charge levied for agency staff. Agency spend is negligible with the exceptions of Health Informatics.The Trust has been given a ceiling by NHS Improvement for agency spend. This target is£7.695m for the year. At the end of period 9, the Trust is -£1,006k, or 18% above it'strajectory. The new Use of Resources rating measures agency against target and containstrigger points. Key trigger points are a requirement for 50% and 25% or better for ratings of3 and 2 respectively. An individual rating of at least 3 is required to obtain an overall ratingof 2 (see also Use of Resources section).
Agency Costs Over Time (£'000) Bank Costs Over Time (£'000)
A high level of vacancies is supported by bank and agency, though increased levels of recruitment mean overall staffing costs remain high. Agency costs have increased from last month as well as bank costs.Mental Health Networks bank and agency costs are primarily due to the level of acuity on inpatient wards being beyond the level established with aprticualr pressure being experienced in December across both bank and agency.Children and Young Peoples temporary staffing remains relatively minor, but we have seen pressure at The Cove in December.Community and Wellbeing sees an increase in bank but a fall in agency, with the major agency change being the with regard to Learning Disability, and bank recovering in Integrated Teams and Southport.

NotesYear to Date PerformanceAt month 9 with CIPs of £10.0m against a plan of £1.1m the Trust is c£1.1m behind plan, an improvement of £0.2m on month 8 (£1.3m behind plan). The adverse variance is mainly due to the continued lack of performance on Run Rate Reduction Programmes on staffing pressures. Compensating schemes have, and continue to be, developed and with c£1.4m of schemes transacted in December confidence in forecasts is increasing. The network management team continue to be support to implement measures aimed at improving the position.
Schemes to be Transacted£0.3m of schemes are yet to be transacted at month 9 leading to year to date slippage of c£0.2m. There is a good degree of confidence in the delivery of these schemes.
Schemes In Process£0.9m of additional schemes identified are not yet sufficiently detailed to transact leading to year to date slippage of c£0.4m. There is some confidence in the delivery of these schemes.
Schemes to be IdentifiedIncluding pipeline schemes planned total remains broadly in line with target, though this is not without risk.

The Trust has written to commissioners about the pressure caused by patients awaiting alternative placements.The Trust has opened negotiations with commissioners about the financial impact of patients inappropriately occupying our beds in excess of 180 days.
Commissioners have asked for, and are receiving, monthly actual performance against the profile.
The Trust is mobilising Acute Therapy Services in Pennine and Chorley, Crisis Support Units in Preston and Blackpool, and a Crisis House in Coppull. These services have an impact on the bed trajectory and variations in timing will alter the OAPs usage accordingly.If the current trajectory persists this would present pressure a further pressure in the order of £0.25m (net).
There is a fund of c£3m for OAPs, financed 50:50 by the Trust and Lancashire CCGs. After this fund is exhausted, any additional OAPs are accounted for on the basis of 50:50 split between the Trust and CCGs.
Current projection suggest there will be expenditure of £5.1m for OAPs in 2017/18., though slippage on developments takes the net impact to £5.0m as reported elsewhere.

£3.5m of external cash funding was allocated for the Perinatal project, £2.5m in 2017/18. Again issues with third parties have caused some delays and whilst it was hoped this can be managed, discussions with contractors indicate slippage of c1-3 weeks is now likely. NHSI regulatory and capital teams have been notified of the potential impact on 2017/18 expenditure and the associated PDC drawdowns.
£0.5m of external cash funding was allocated for Places of Safety. Funding currently exceeds planned work and the excess will be retained by DoH for reallocation.
Capital Expenditure
Progress against the capital programme has begun to accelerate with expenditure at £3.0m against the original profile of £7.3m. Despite the resolution of a number of issues a reduced level of spend on the 17/18 programme would now appear inevitable, particularly on the Inpatient and Perinatal schemes. Forecasts are in line with reported delays and NHSI have been notified with regard to potential underspends and PDC implications. The Trust continues to work with contractors to ensure trhe planned endpoint remains on track.
IT programme is expected to be delivered on forecast.External cash funding was provisionally allocated to the Inpatient project through the STP and was approved by NHSI in October. Additional information and governance requirements were subsequently added by and provided to DH, and final approval remains to be confirmed. Work has commenced though delays in relation to the Chorley site, primarily caused by third parties, have meant that works have started later than originally intended and whilst it was anticipated the go live date can be managed, significant slippage on 2017/18 expenditure is now expected. NHSI regulatory and capital teams have been notified of the potential impact on 2017/18 expenditure and the associated PDC drawdowns.
The programme is behind and though expenditure is expected to accelerate some slippage is now considered likely. Work is ongoing to manage plans and the year end position.

NHSI is currently clarifying the position around elements of the national contingency reserve, £0.5m of which is now outstanding.
SubjectA number of disputes require resolution and have been submitted for mediation, these include NHSE, West Lancs, and Pennine CCGs.
The forecast trajectory with regard to Out of Area Placements (OAPs) is currently projected to net £2.0m, with the assumption that the50% risk share applies.
Provision for charges incurred as a result of the organisational reset have been made, the process is largely complete, but somechallenges remain and these may have financial consequences.
The Trust is actively exploring the potential for land sales. A number of gains are expected to crystallise in 17/18 and are factored in tothe recovery plan and forecasts.
On-going Claims: The process of reclaiming VAT in relation to older developments continues. HRMC have confirmed theappropriateness of the claims and approved claims are being pursued via the contractors (as required by HRMC). The value may be upto £2m, though less than half this amount has been approved and included in plans and forecasts. Our advisors are actively engaged inbringing this to a final resolution but timing and amounts remain uncertain. Treatment is being discussed with external audit but initialindications are positive. STF monies have been included in forecasts on the assumption that the Trust will achieve its revenue control total. Should this not bethe case £2.3m of funding would be lost.The Trust is assessing the impact of recent court decisions around pay for sleepover in Learning Disabilities care placements.

CQC domain Well-led PAPER DEVELOPMENT PROCESS:
Meeting Presented Action Date The Board is asked to note the QPR for month 9 with following comments below:
• All NHSI metrics are compliant with the exception of the Early Intervention in Psychosis Referral to Treatment within 2 weeks.
• The measures within the Board Balanced Scorecard illustrate the challenges faced by the organisation in relation to our financial position and attracting the best people. The Service Delivery domain of the Board Balanced Scorecard now contains a summary of relevant 5YFV performance metrics.
• A new 5YFV dashboard is included in the main body of the QPR. The trajectory of improvement to 2020/21 is provided. Some measures are subject to development and validation and will be available by the new financial year.
• Work has been conducted on the new NHSI measure for Inappropriate Out of Area Placements. A trajectory has been submitted by the STP. Current performance and the trajectory is included in the QPR this month. Discussions have taken place with NHSI and NHSE regarding the application of the definition to ensure appropriate interpretation and reporting.
• Performance measures are aligned to the most appropriate CQC domain according to the detail of the narrative, although it is recognised that not all metrics are exclusively linked to one domain.
Are we SAFE?
The current CQC rating is ‘requires improvement’
Our performance in completing appraisals and mandatory training was a contributory factor in the CQC rating for this domain.
Overall the Trust is compliant against the 85% target for Mandatory Training, achieving 92% for month 9. For some training courses performance is below 85% (page 116), the 3 hotspots in month 9 are basic life support, immediate life support and manual handling. Safeguarding children level 3 is now above 85% having been non-compliant last month. The areas under 85% are being targeted and monitored closely.
Appraisal continues to be a challenge with the month 9 position showing no change from that reported in month 8 (page 116). Networks are producing plans to achieve compliance by the end of the year and will present these to Business Development and Delivery sub-committee on the 21st February.
The use of temporary staffing (and bank and agency spend) continues to be an area of concern. Weekly task and finish meetings continue, chaired by the Executive Director of Nursing and are focussed on interventions to deliver improvements. In addition, meetings have been held with wards where the use of temporary staffing is greatest. These meetings, also chaired by the Executive Director of Nursing, facilitated a discussion to understand the detail of the issues impacting upon staffing for safety and quality. A report of the findings and recommendations was submitted to Finance Recovery Group. Recommendations are now being implemented.
In Southport and Formby Community services, there is high use of agency staffing. This did not triangulate with low rates of sickness absence reporting in previous months. Further investigation has highlighted that sickness absence has not been recorded correctly by the staff and rates in December are 8% compared to 4.9% reported in November (page 133 and 134). A corrective action plan is being developed by the Network.
Are we CARING?
The current CQC rating is ‘Good’.
Attendance at CPA reviews continues to be an issue in secure services (internal target is 80% attendance). For inpatients, 71% of reviews were attended by the care coordinator in month 9 (page 33). For community reviews, attendance was 66.7% in month 9 (page 37), an improvement on 45% in month 8. The Chief Operating Officer has written to each individual care coordinator who failed to attend a CPA review in November and December to set out expectations. A failure to improve will be treated as a performance issue.
The number of service users who have not had a care coordinator allocated –‘unallocated cases’ has increased in Mental Health and Community Well Being Networks this month. This is an important data quality indicator that is receiving renewed focus (Page 71).
Are we EFFECTIVE?
The current CQC rating is ‘Good’.
Average Length of stay (ALOS) (on discharge) in adult mental health has reduced to 41.8 days, a decrease of 2 days from last month (page 66) but still higher than the 31 day standard. PICU length of stay has increased to 46 days in month 9, from 34 days in month 8 (page 66). It is inevitable that the LOS will be variable as patients are discharged, therefore the QPR also contains the LOS profile of current inpatients (page 67). Currently, there are 20 adult and 10 PICU patients with LOS greater than 180 days, a slight improvement from 21 and 11, respectively, last month.
Improvements in readmission rates for both 30 and 90 days have been sustained in month 9, with both measures meeting the required standard (page 68&69). This is evidence of the impact of the clinical focus on addressing reasons for patient readmission.
The high demand for inpatient beds continues with occupancy levels exceeding 100%. Consequently, the number of out of area placements (OAPs) continues to exceed plan. In month 9 there was a slight reduction in OAPs at 27.52, compared to 29.93 in month 8 (page 60). Work on reducing the number of patients with length of stay greater than 180 days continues as a means of resolving bed capacity issues (and OAPS). The integrated discharge team was established in December to focus on expediting discharge for these patients.
Demand for the Mental Health Liaison Teams continues to be challenging. Despite this, Mental Health Liaison Team performance against the 4 hour standard achieved 89.4%. This is the highest percentage achievement since April 2017 (page 27 and 28). Mental Health Liaison Teams are reporting 10 individual 12 hour breaches for month 9. This is a small increase compared to the last 3 months (page 27 and 28) and reflects earlier assessment and timely decision to admit (which starts the 12 hour clock) but lack of available capacity to enable admission within 12 hours. This was one of the issues flagged to commissioners as an unintended consequence of investment in Core 24.
In order to understand the dynamics of patient flow in more detail, a deep dive has been commissioned by the COO. This will look specifically at the impact of the Integrated Discharge Team alongside our ability to admit patients from A&E and Police Custody in a timely manner. This will be reported back at the next Business Development and Delivery sub-committee.
In month 9 we are reporting zero breaches of the PACE clock (page 38). This is the first time that we have achieved the target this year. Gold command was in operation during December and was successful in managing patients in a timely manner. Ongoing work to improve relationships with constabulary colleagues aims to maintain this improvement during January.
Occupancy at the Cove continues to be variable and in December was less than the 85% target (Page 26). A deep dive into patient flow and access into the Cove has been commissioned by the COO and will be presented back to Business Development and Delivery sub-committee in February.
Are we RESPONSIVE?
The current CQC rating is ‘Good’.
As reported previously, the Early Intervention in Psychosis service is failing to meet the 50% target for referral to treatment within 2 weeks. Performance in month 9 is 33% (Page 48), an improvement on month 7 and 8. The cumulative Q3 position is 24.3% (Page 12), which as expected did not reach 50%.
The remedial action plan is on track and continues to be monitored through a fortnightly task group. Daily teleconferences are in place to provide operational support to the team leaders. All ‘legacy’ patients have now been treated, however, this has impacted upon reported performance throughout the quarter. Late receipt of referrals and patient choice also affected Q3 performance. The implementation of a direct referral pathway is underway to address the issue of late referrals.
Responsiveness is also demonstrated through our achievement of the 18 week referral to treatment (RTT) standard for AHPs and for dental waiting times. In the Community Wellbeing Network, all services monitored are compliant against the contractual RTT measures (page 24).
In the Children and Young People’s Wellbeing Network, 2 out of 5 services are compliant in month 9 against the 18 week AHP RTT, a deterioration on previous months. Occupational therapy services performed below the 92% target this month and will be subject to additional scrutiny to recover the position.
The 2 areas of sustained under-performance are Child Psychology and CAMHs Tier 3 and a detailed report on these services was presented at Trust Board in month 8.
Child Psychology: Performance for month 9 has achieved 84% against the 92% target for incomplete RTT pathways (page 50 and 51). Whilst this is a further deterioration from the position in month 7 and 8, it is a consequence of a reduction in the overall waiting list size (denominator). The number of children waiting longer than 18 weeks has also reduced from 37 to 32. Based on current waiting list size of 206 patients, the service needs to achieve less than 16 children waiting over 18 weeks to achieve the target.
As reported last month, the focus is on resolving capacity issues in the Preston Hospital and Lancaster team (who have 31 of the 32 long waiters) to provide treatment to the children waiting over 18 weeks.
CAMHS Tier 3: The performance in the CAMHS Tier 3 service continues to perform significantly below the standard for incomplete pathways. In month 9, performance is 72% against the 92% standard, compared to 61% in month 8 (page 52 and 53).
The number of children waiting longer than 18 weeks for treatment has reduced again this month to 152, from 228 in month 8. The Chorley and South Ribble team continue to be the main contributor to the under-performance, however, this team is reporting the most positive position for 6 months. Gaps in capacity are being progressed through recruitment and further improvement is expected from month 10.
Also in the Children and Young Peoples Network, ADHD services have been challenged for some time. Over the last year, the service has failed to achieve the 18 week RTT for new patients. This reflects a historical issue of demand outstripping the original service model/specification, compounded with staff capacity issues. Performance in month 9 was 30%, with 230 people waiting in excess of 18 weeks (page 54-56). The Network are seeking a collaborative approach with commissioners to establish a new service model. This will involve the establishment of a virtual neuro-developmental assessment team and also a revised triage/gatekeeping model and referral process. This will be progressed during Quarter 4.
In Mindsmatter (IAPT), a number of measures are monitored that indicate our overall responsiveness. The service continues to perform well against the NHSI metrics for referral to treatment in 6 and 18 weeks and also the percentage of patients entering recovery (page 24).
Achievement of prevalence targets is an area of focus. Cumulative prevalence is being measured against the current 15% target and also the trajectory required to meet 16.8% in Q4 (for relevant CCGs). In month 9, all teams failed to meet the monthly prevalence targets with the exception of the Fylde & Wyre team. However, higher activity in October and November enabled all areas to meet the required cumulative target for Q3.
In depth monitoring is being maintained alongside interventions to increase prevalence (page 42-43). However, a result of the increased prevalence is the increased demand for onward treatment (particularly CBT) which had not been factored into the demand and capacity planning of the service. Issues with vacancies and sickness further compound the capacity gap. Consequently, a significant increase in the number of patients waiting longer than 26 weeks for treatment is seen this month; 154 compared to 59 last month (page 46 and 47). Patients who have waited over 26 weeks are being offered alternative interventions where appropriate. The COO has requested a formal deep dive into IAPT, which triangulates low appraisal rates and areas of high sickness with performance. The report will be presented at Business Development and Delivery sub-committee in February.
In relation to delivery of the contract activity plan, both the mental health (page 95) and community (page 83) contracts are performing ahead of plan. The detail within the QPR shows the status of each service line. Work is being undertaken with BwD CCG to understand areas where the activity plan is not being met and where possible, the number of contacts will be complemented with waiting times information. Treatment rooms is a particular area of focus and from M10, waiting times for treatment rooms will be reported.
Are we WELL-LED?
The current CQC rating is ‘Good’.
The staff engagement score for Q3 shows a largely static position with only a decimal point increase on the Q2 position at 3.75% (page 5).
Sickness rates for the organisation as a whole deteriorated to 7.32%, off track in relation to achieving the 4.5% target (page 115). This follows the seasonal sickness trend seen last year. The increase is seen in all Networks however, a 1% decrease in sickness was seen in Support Services. Work continues on absence management across all areas in accordance with policy. In addition, in the mental health network, a specific set of actions are being implemented to support return to work (as appropriate) for staff injured whilst at work.
In response to the information reporting issues identified in EIS, a series of ‘snapshot’ audits for NHSI metrics are being undertaken by the Performance team. The format of each audit is to review and compare a sample of records submitted for each metric against the information within the clinical records system. The first metric to be reviewed was the 6 and the 18 week RTT standard for IAPT. The audit corroborated the compliant position reported to NHSI. Some incidental data quality/ system configuration issues were identified. These did not affect our RTT compliance but are important for onward management of patient pathways. The Performance team are working closely with the Network to implement a series of actions to address the issues identified.
The Business Development and Delivery Sub-committee meeting received each of the 3 Network Reports for month 9; the links for which are provided below

At the December meeting of Business Development and Delivery sub-committee, the COO, as Chair for the group received a report on the services that have been under-performing for more than 6 months. The purpose of this was to re-set the expectation that recovery of performance needs to be effective within a 6 month window. There was an expectation that Networks would report back on actions to address this, however, this was not received at the January meeting of the sub-committee. This is being addressed individually with Heads of Operations.
Summary and Recommendations
The information in the QPR provides evidence of our performance against key metrics aligned to each CQC domains. From this, and the exception reporting against each measure, we are able to provide information that supports the assessment of our position against each domain.

A total of 3 standards were included in the audit. The results demonstrated the trust was in the upper quartile for 2 standards.
These standards assessed that the dose of an antipsychotic was within SPC/BNF limits and that only one antipsychotic should
be prescribed at a time. Upper quartile performance was not achieved for standard 3, this was a newly introduced audit
standard. However, overall across all 3 standards acute wards and PICUs were in the upper quartile nationally. Secure Services

Agency Ceiling
Agency usage in Community has increased slightly due to winter
pressures but costs have increased due to the number of Bank Holidays
worked (at an accordingly higher rate of pay). Medical Agency usage
has been reasonably steady however the same cost increases due
to Bank Holidays applies. Inpatients have seen an increased agency
usage due to a rise in sickness absence in the month of December
but overall usage in inpatient services is less in December 2017 than
the corresponding month the previous year.

Use of Resources (UoR) Risk
Rating* The improvements to the I&E position yield a rating of 3 and a Capital Service rating of 3, improving the overall UoR to a 2.
Assuming current pressures and risks are addressed through the recovery plan and I&E performance achieves (or exceeds) forecast, the Trust
will achieve a UoR of 2 in line with the plan. Target: 2

Capital Expenditure Progress against the capital programme has begun to accelerate with expenditure at £3.0m against the original profile of
£7.3m. Despite the resolution of a number of issues delays on the 17/18 programme would now appear inevitable, particularly
on the Inpatient and Perinatal schemes. The Trust is working with contractors to minimise the impact of delays with a key
focus on maintaining completion dates.
Target: 85-100%

Revenue Control Total Progress with the recovery plan continues and improvements in performance are evident, but with continued pressures delivery will only be
achieved with a considerable coordinated and sustained effort across the organisation.
As a consequence, the Trust continues to forecast achievement of the control total for 2017/18 but this is not without significant risk. Target: ≥0%
-0.5%
Cost Improvement
Programmes (CIPs) At £10.0m in month 9 the Trust is c£1.0m behind the plan of £11.1m and at 91% showing improvement on previous month. The adverse variance
is attributable to a lack of performance on Run Rate Reduction Programmes on staffing pressures. The Trust continues to invest significant time
and effort in managing and developing compensating CIPs and network management are being supported to implement measures aimed at
improving the position. Target: ≥100%

Note: NHS England guidance published in October 2015 confirmed that the incomplete pathway operational standard should became the sole
measure of patients’ constitutional right to start treatment within 18 weeks. And whilst we are required to maintain reporting on the completed
admitted pathway, the removal of the completed admitted pathway as an operational standard means that there is no longer any provision to report
pauses or suspensions in RTT waiting time clocks in monthly RTT returns to NHS England. This means that patients choosing to cancel
appointments can impact negatively on this measure.

Occupancy:
Throughout December, occupancy levels across the service continue to be below the contracted threshold and occupancy has decreased
to 90.11%. The following rationale illustrates the reasons for the monthly bed occupancy:
• Bleasdale Male Medium ABI had 2 vacancies - no one currently on waiting list
• Whinfell Ward Male Low ABI had 3 vacancies - 1 SU currently on the waiting list due to be admitted 11th January 2018
• Forest Beck Ward Female Step down service had 1 vacancy - Female community bed
• Hermitage ABI/MI Step down Community House had 2 vacancies - Male Community Bed
• Fellside West Ward Male Step Down had 1 vacancy - 1 SU from Marshaw being considered
• Fairsnape Ward MSU had 2 vacancies - 1 SU on Waiting list awaiting medical recommendations to be completed to apply for transfer

Violent Incidents resulting in Restraint:
Throughout December, there were 126 reportable incidents of verbal and physical violence at Guild Lodge. This sees a 15% increase
when compared to the 110 incidents reported throughout November. The overall use of restraint as a response to violent incidents has
been seen to increase. 25.4% of violent incidents ending in restraint which is significantly higher when compared to 16.3% in November.
Elmridge, Dutton and Bleasdale wards have all seen significant increase in violence and restraint in December due to patient acuity and
staff feeling unsafe. Work is underway to provide support and leadership to these environments.

25hr Meaningful Activity:
In December, 6 of the 15 wards failed to meet the 100% set target relating to the uptake of meaningful activity. The service notes that there
has been an overall improvement with a site wide increase from 86.4% in November, to 89.0% in December.
There are wards that continue to experience high acuity which has resulted in a static level of uptake in planned activity. There is ongoing
work being undertaken to improve engagement for opportunities of activity both on and off the wards. It is noted that the accuracy of
recording has improved.
Furthermore, it is noted that the service has provided additional matron cover across the wards and there will be a focus on checking

HMP Liverpool – HJIP Indicators:
GP Waiting Times:
There are currently 106 patients on the GP waiting list and the longest wait is 15 working days, an increase of 5 working days compared to
November. The contributing factors to this are a DNA rate of 37% and the cancellation of 5 clinics. Cancellation reasons are as follows: 1
GP not provided; 2 GP sick and 2 Bank Holidays. Despite the cancellations, 266 patients were seen, only 16 fewer patients compared to
November. This is due to the increased numbers of patients listed for each clinic to compensate for DNAs. The Nurse Practitioner clinics
have been reduced due to one NP being off sick and the other having to cover other duties due to staffing shortages.
Enablement issues are highlighted below.
NHS Health Checks:
100% completed for December.
Wellman Screening:
The Wellman screenings target has continued to decrease due to staffing shortages and the need to cover essential areas.
Immunisations and Vaccinations:
Due to staffing shortages, only 4 clinics were facilitated during December. 75 appointments were offered with a DNA rate of 62%. A large
percentage of the appointments offered were for Seasonal Flu so they needed to be re-called. Currently there are 35 patients eligible for
Flu vaccination, 19 of these were offered an appointment on 8th January, of which 10 of them Did Not Attend.
DNA - Enablement Issues:
The prison has informed Healthcare that as of 8th January 18, there is to be a new "Core Day" and this should have a positive effect on
enablement. Healthcare should start to see patients arrive for clinics at 9am instead of around 9.45am, with the same improvement for the
afternoon clinics. This will be closely monitored by both Healthcare and Prison staff and feedback given at the Operational Meetings.

2.1 Performance Activity Community & Wellbeing – Improving Access to
Psychological Therapies (IAPT) Prevalence
42
IAPT - Prevalence:
A cumulative prevalence model has been developed to support teams to achieve the 16.8% prevalence target set by NHS England at 31
March 2018. The quarter 3 contractual target remains at 15% (BWD is 14.2%); however teams have been working towards an internal
cumulative target of 16.2% in preparation for the 16.8%. St Helens CCG has agreed that prevalence will stay at 15% as they have not
received any national LTC funding. Blackburn with Darwen CCG's prevalence target has been confirmed as 14.2% with an expectation
that this will increase and funds will be re attributed to this locality next year.
All teams apart from Fylde and Wyre did not achieve the 15% contractual prevalence target in December.
• Fylde and Wyre did achieve 15% contractual target
It was predicted that the teams would struggle to achieve the prevalence target in December as historically December is a quieter month
for referrals, prevalence and first assessment appointments. In preparation for the anticipated lower numbers in December, the teams
worked hard to increase referrals, prevalence and taster sessions in October and November of quarter 3.
Overall prevalence for quarter 3 is:
• All teams achieved the 15% contractual prevalence target of 15% for quarter 3 (BwD 14.2%)
• Chorley and South Ribble also achieved the 16.2% quarter 3 internal cumulative target
• Greater Preston also achieved the 16.2% quarter 3 internal cumulative targets
• West Lancs also achieved the 16.2% quarter 3 internal cumulative targets
• Fylde and Wyre also achieved the 16.2% quarter 3 internal cumulative target
The impact of increasing prevalence from 15% to 16.8% is that there are additional referrals into the service per month, the with an attrition
rate of approx. 15% this has resulted in an increased treatment demand. This is seen in the number of people waiting greater than 26
weeks on the internal waiting list for onward treatment interventions. See IAPT Waits slide.
The Leadership team, including the recently appointed interim team leaders and admin leads have daily oversight of performance across
all teams. Performance data is examined daily to enable teams to respond quickly to areas of deficit in prevalence and direct resources
within each specific locality. Deficits and risk areas to achieve prevalence are highlighted at team and management level and are
escalated to the Leadership team and the Network managers immediately in order to expedite actions.

IAPT - Waits:
Waiting times have increased across the service in December with 154 people waiting over 26 weeks for treatment:
• 23 people have been waiting over 26 weeks for CBT in East Lancs; this is an increase of 12 since November
• 31 people have been waiting over 26 weeks for CBT in Greater Preston, this is an increase of 26 since November
• 1 person has been waiting over 26 weeks in West Lancs for Counselling, this is an increase of 1 since November
• 16 people have been waiting over 26 weeks in Fylde and Wyre for CBT; this is an increase of 6 since November
• 70 people have been waiting over 26 weeks in Morecambe Bay for Counselling, this is an increase in 52 since November, 1 person has also
been waiting over 26 weeks for CBT
• 11 people have been waiting over 26 weeks in St Helens for CBT; this is a reduction in 3 people since November
There are a number of reasons that when combined have contributed to the increase in waiting times:
• An increase in the national prevalence target from 15% to 16.8 (as described earlier)
• Staff capacity issues due to sickness and turnover in quarter 3 with a difficulty in recruiting to some posts. This has been a national concern
raised with NHS England due to the wave 2 Long Term Conditions programme, where high numbers of staff have moved to new training
posts.
• A reduction in the activity delivered by a sub contract partner Lancashire Women’s Centre.
An action plan is in place across the service to manage and improve the waiting times:
• A recruitment plan, both internally and sub-contracting. All Mindsmatter vacancies have been advertised and some staff will start in post from
January 2018.
• A service transformation plan is in development to change and improve how Mindsmatter deliver the service to accommodate the increasing
prevalence figures
• Staff sickness management plan and measures to mitigate against loss of capacity are in place across teams, including HR support and staff
working more flexibly across the service
• Monthly formal contract and performance meeting with Lancashire Women's Centre
• All service users on the waiting list are being contacted with an offer of an alternative intervention to one-to-one therapy and local actions
plans with individual CCGs are in development
• All staff have been offered bank or overtime to increase activity whilst recruitment takes place
• A further expression of interest to be sent to external providers to increase our 3rd sector offer across the service
• Plan to work with ‘My Space’ colleagues to identify if we have any clients waiting who would benefit from input
In addition, we have also identified some data quality issues which are impacting on the reporting of the length of internal waits. A waiting list
meeting takes place weekly to address allocation places, review trajectories and data quality, with a fortnightly steering group in place chaired by
the Head of Operations.

Early Intervention in Psychosis (EIP):
The position at the end of M9 is that 33.3% of service users received treatment within 2 weeks, this represents 12 people out of 36 within
the cohort. This is a continued improvement of almost 10% from M8, where only 11 out of 46 people received treatment within 2 weeks.
The number of service users waiting at the end of M9 has remained static at 49, with 51 in M8.
The Trust continues to take the issue of EIS RTT performance and reporting with the utmost seriousness. Daily SITREPs and
teleconferences chaired by senior management, involving front line staff and managers plus performance colleagues, are now very well
embedded to ensure that all new referrals are allotted appointments within the 14 day window. There is an extensive action plan in place,
of which key actions are provided below. Further recovery against the RTT is expected in Quarter 4.
The Trust is currently undertaking a self-assessment audit programme which will be completed by February 2018 and submitted to the
RCPsych for national benchmarking.

Child Psychology (Total Network Performance):
In M9, overall service performance decreased to 84.5%, from 86.4% in M8. The total number of SUs on the waiting list in M8 reduced to
206 from 270 in M8, of which 32 are waiting over 18 weeks; a decrease of 5 from M8. Four out of the six team’s performance are now
above the target of 92% (BwD/EL; Preston Community; Blackpool; Fylde and Wyre) and two teams under the target (Preston Hospital and
Lancaster).
Preston Hospital
11 out of 17 service users are waiting over 18 weeks (64.7%). This is a 2.8% increase from M8 (61.9%). The longest waiter is 37 weeks.
The Preston Hospital service is provided in line with a historic SLA with Lancashire Teaching Hospitals (LTH). This includes a contractual
requirement for inpatients to be seen at very short notice and this impacts on their capacity for out-patient/community work. A meeting has
been requested with LTH to review the SLA.
Waiting list validation is underway which includes advice on interim support, should families feel that the emotional health and wellbeing of
their child has changed significantly.
Lancaster
Performance in Lancaster increased in M9 to 62.3%, from 59.6% in M8. This equates to 33 out of 53 service users. 5 SUs waiting over 18
weeks have TCIs in January, and 2 in February. The current longest waiter is at 31 weeks.
The new Principal Clinical Psychologist, who took up post on 20th November, is now having a positive impact on service delivery. There
are two Clinical Psychologists off long term sick that are being appropriately managed.

CAMHS Tier 3
In M9, overall service performance has increased by 11.3% from 60.8% to 72.1% (392 SUs). This equates to 152 out of 544 waiting over
18 weeks for treatment, which represents a 33% decrease from M8. The total number of SUs on the waiting list also decreased in M9 from
581 to 544 in M8.
Two out of the five team’s performance remains above the target of 95% (West Lancs and Fylde & Wyre) and three teams under the target
however 90% (137) of SUs waiting over 18 weeks relate to Chorley and South Ribble (C&SR) Team.
Service level performance:
C&SR performance increased slightly for the third consecutive month in M9 to 54.6% from 43.2% in M8. There are currently 137 out of
302 SUs waiting over 18 weeks. 21 SUs have TCI dates in January, of which 20 are waiting over 18 weeks.
The team continues to send validation letters to the longest waiters in order of referral date, and are currently at 34 weeks. From month 10,
validation letters will change and these are being sent out to 18 weeks and above. There are still a number of substantive vacancies which
are having an impact on the teams’ capacity; interviews for vacancies have been organised for January 2018.
Preston performance increased to 89.6% in M9 from 80% in M8. There are currently 11 out of 106 SUs waiting over 18 weeks. 11 SUs
have TCI dates and the longest waiter is 25 weeks. The team are increasing capacity of initial assessments to improve throughput. As a
result, the performance is expected to be below 18 weeks again by the end of January.
Lancaster performance increased in M9 to 83.3% from 57.9% in M8. There are currently 4 out of 24 SUs waiting over 18 weeks. 3 SUs
have TCI dates and the longest waiter is 25 weeks. The teams’ capacity is affected by sickness and vacancies. Sickness is being
managed appropriately and posts are being recruited to. All families next in line for an appointment are being contacted by phone to
confirm their need for an appointment remains and to offer a choice of appointment to encourage attendance.
Overall recovery:
The impact of the validation process in C&SR is having a positive effect on the waiting list size, with an overall reduction from 581 to 544.
Twelve validation responses are still required by the end of M9 and completion of the validation will be achieved by M11. The revised
appointment booking procedure is now in place in C&SR team and further improvements should be realised by the end of M10. These
improvements will give the Network the knowledge to be able to provide accurate CSR and Service level trajectories by M11. Lancaster
and Preston are expected to be meeting the access target at the end of M10.

54
ADHD:
The proportion of new referrals to the ADHD service waiting under 18 weeks for treatment was 30.3%, down marginally from 35.1% as at
the end of M8. This equates to 100 out of 330 new referrals waiting under 18 weeks. In December there were 62 referrals (new and
transition) as opposed to 84 in November; a decrease of 26%.
Issues affecting performance:
• The service still has a vacant NMP post. However, discussions are in place to create 3 NMP posts, each with a specific locality
caseload: North, Central and East. This will be as part of the new service model and will provide further efficiencies. NMP post is being
interviewed on 17th January 2018 and if the post is recruited to which will enable us to take on New Assessment work from the summer.
• The NMP recently joining the service has now begun independently prescribing under close supervision of the team leader, again
creating capacity. However due to the large established case load, this role has been continuing prescribing with patients already in the
service, along with new transitions.
• It was proposed that commissioners and LCFT work together to develop the future model for ADHD. The meeting planned for 22/12/17
was cancelled and a new date has been requested.
• New Assessment waiting list continues to grow as there is no capacity to take on new assessments due to number of reviews.
Transition assessments were agreed to be priority due to ongoing clinical issues with this group not being reviewed once discharged
from CAMHS.
It is of note that the estimated demand in the specification is that 170 adults aged 16 years+ across Lancashire (excluding Blackpool) will
require assessment for continuing need of medication and appropriate transitioning from their existing service each year. There is
expected to be new referral demand in addition, in line with reasonable growth assumptions. The service has in fact received 263 referrals
for ‘transition’ and 357 for ‘new’ since the 1 April this year, which significantly exceeds the contracted demand.

2.2 Patient Flow Out of Area Placements (OAPS)
59
OAPS:
The average number of OAPs decreased in December by 2.41, alongside a decrease in the OAP OBDs in December with a position of
853, a decrease of 45 from November.
The overall number of OAPs fell towards the end of December to below 20, remaining below 20 into the first two weeks of January at
time of reporting and this reflecting a sustained improvement in the position. The Integrated Discharge Team, formed in December 2017,
will be a key driver in addressing the 180+ day Length of Stay cases.
There is system-wide acknowledgement that this cohort of patients are the key factor on flow and reducing the number of out of area
placements. The patient cohort have chronic mental health presentations with slow responses to treatment. As reported previously, from
the current inpatient cohort, zero 180+ day cases would result in zero OAPs and LCFT occupancy on acute wards below 100%. The
Network will use LCFT beds made available through the Integrated Discharge Team to repatriate current OAPs, improving care through
bringing these patients closer to families and community care teams.

Occupancy:
Combined LCFT and Adult OAPs occupancy decreased in December by 1.86 percentage points to 107.55%, and Older Adult
occupancy by 6.01 percentage points to 104.15%. Both trends are towards the anticipated trajectory.
The over-occupancy is the direct cause of the reliance on OAPs in month. The Integrated Discharge Team formed in December 2017,
and impact on OAPs will be more evident in January as case work comes to fruition, with 32 long-stay cases identified by the IDT for
action. The focus has now shifted to 150+ days Length of Stay (rather than 180+) in order to drive earlier action for discharge or
transition, and the resulting capacity is the key next step in managing bed stock without OAPs.

were reviewed manually on the clinical system IAPTUS to determine each patient’s referral date and their first treatment date against
what was reported.
The audit was positive and corroborated the compliant position reported in relation to the Trust’s reported RTT figures for both MR14
and MR15. The audit did uncover some issues around system categorisation whereby appointments in some cases had been
incorrectly categorised by the IAPTUS system. The reason was down to the initial system configuration by the Mindsmatter team and
the IAPTUS system supplier Mayden.
The Performance team in collaboration with Mindsmatter service and Mayden are currently working on correcting and updating this and
other minor issues.
In addition to this, data quality issues were identified around internal subsequent waits i.e.. once service users complete first treatment
and the number of patients who remain on the internal waiting list without further activity. The performance team are working through
this with the service.

Use of Resources rating (UoR)
The improvements to the I&E position yield a rating of 3 and a Capital Service rating of 3 improving the overall UoR to a 2.
Assuming current pressures and risks are addressed through the recovery plan and I&E performance achieves (or
exceeds) forecast the Trust will achieve a UoR of 2 in line with the plan. However, though current forecasts anticipate the
achievement of the the overall target rating, Capital Service is based on EBITDA and since part of the Trusts recovery plan
is based on disposals (which are excluded from EBITDA) the Trust is not forecast to achieve planned Capital Service. The
Trust is also forecast to exceed its liquidity and slip against it's planned Agency target.

Sustainability
At month 9, the Trust year to date position is £1.3m deficit (excluding impairments of £0.2m), against a plan to this point of
£1.2m surplus, a gap of £2.5m. Of this £1.4m relates to STF funding leaving an underlying gap of £1.1m. This shows an
improvement of c£0.5m on month 8 but still represents a significant gap and the majority of the improvements relate to
transacting amounts in the recovery plan, staffing pressures in ward and prison areas, OAPs and slippage against CIPs
continue. Unmitigated projections indicate a gap of c£4.2m (£6.3m including STF) and although this shows an improvement
over the month 8 position of c£0.4m, the recovery agenda will require sustained and coordinated responses with robust
management and oversight if the Trust is to achieve its control total.

Performance Management
Cost Improvement Programmes
At £10.0m in month 9 the Trust is c£1.0m behind the plan of £11.1m and at 91% showing improvement on previous
month. The adverse variance is attributable to a lack of performance on Run Rate Reduction Programmes on staffing
pressures. The Trust continues to invest significant time and effort in managing and developing compensating CIPs and
network management are being supported to implement measures aimed at improving the position.
Currently the Trust anticipates it will achieve its annual target of £15.1m.
Note a number of schemes are still being transacted and that mapping of individual schemes to projects and programmes is still
being finalised.

Capital Expenditure
Progress against the capital programme has begun to accelerate with expenditure at £3.0m against the original profile of
£7.3m. Despite the resolution of a number of issues delays on the 17/18 programme would now appear inevitable,
particularly on the Inpatient and Perinatal schemes. The Trust is working with contractors to minimise the impact of delays
with a key focus on maintaining completion dates.

2017-18 M9 Activity
LCFT have 11 services overperforming by +10% and 13 underperforming by -10%. However, this over and underperformance means that the overall
variance for the Community contract is -0.8% as shown above.
LCFT continue to provide exception reports for all Services at CCG level that have underperformed for 3 months or more, however following last
month’s Contract meetings, Midlands and Lancashire CSU are to provide a list of Central Services that they require LCFT to investigate further.
The detailed exception reports have been removed from the QPR this month and will be replaced over the coming months with more informative
balancing measures that highlight the impact of the under/over performance. The first service that will be reported in this way is Treatment Rooms
where the C&W Network is working with BwD CCG to evaluate the consequence of underperformance and provide assurance around service
functionality. As part of this full service review, patient waits are being monitored and will be reported from M10 in this section of the QPR.
For those service lines that will not be in a position to make up their negative variance by year end, discussions will need to take place with the
Commissioners.
Work is ongoing to resolve the issues highlighted last month regarding the Central Lancashire Paediatric Liaison Services not having sight of all the
children that are triaged by the ‘Go to Doctor’ service and subsequently deflected away from A&E. This is due to an outstanding information sharing
agreement which LCFT are working to put in place with both the GTD Service and the CSU.

2017-18 Baseline Proposal
LCFT are now providing variances against monthly plans at CCG level and where services are reporting under-performance of -10% or more LCFT will
produce exception narrative. Narrative will also be produced for the top 4 over-performing services based on activity numbers.
LCFT have 21 service lines at CCG level that are currently under-performing by -10% or more.
As mentioned in last month’s summary, the Audit of Patient ‘Notes’ identified in some instances the Patient Note does constitute a relevant contact, but in
most cases it does not. The 4 services involved are MAS, Eating Disorders, Hospital Liaison and ADHD, and in all there have been 23,025 over reported
Non-Patient contacts for the period of Apr-17 to Oct-17.
LCFT have also identified that for the above 4 Services and the RITT Service, 4,606 Non-Patient contacts have been reported in error as Face to Face
Contacts, making a total of 27,631 over reported Patient Contacts.
In both cases above, this is a historic issue going back to 2012 and Non-Patient contacts have been a component of baselines for some time. Therefore,
changes of activity over recent years are unrelated to this issue. Commissioners have agreed with LCFT that due to numbers being inflated historically
as a result of the above, the baselines remain accurate and therefore have been agreed. At year end necessary adjustments will be made to remove
‘patient notes from both the Baselines and the reported activity.

3.3 CQUIN Executive Summary
CQUIN Executive Summary: Quarter 2 submissions for 2017/18 schemes have taken place for the Mental Health & Community contracts. The staff flu scheme is currently
behind plan but it expected to meet the 70% target by the end of February 18. Discussions are ongoing with acute trusts regarding the A&E
scheme, however we are working towards the targets for the scheme with Commissioner support. Some further work needs to be done regarding
the Physical Health schemes to achieve the required increase in targets for future quarters. The audit has been completed for Collaboration with
Primary care and initial results are currently being analysed.
The Trust has not been successful in achieving the required targets for the Preventing Illness through Risky Behaviours scheme. The total loss
across the schemes for Q2 was £56k relating to Mental Health and £10k for Longridge. Work has focused on referrals to the Stop Smoking
services and training of staff, however it is anticipated that there will be a loss of £18k in Q3 despite the improvements, so further work is required in
Q4 to achieve full payment. There is concern over the full achievement of the Physical Health for people with severe Mental Illness, collaborating
with Primary Care clinicians scheme that could lead to a potential loss of £13k in Q4. Discussions are ongoing with Community Commissioners
regarding the baseline data to be used for the discharge planning scheme. There is a potential to lose 50% funding in Q4 relating to this scheme.
Q2 schemes for Southport & Formby contract have been submitted in line with the agreed milestones. Further discussions to take place with
Commissioners around future quarter submissions.
£1,033k CQUIN funding across CCG contracts is agreed, based on the Trust meeting its control total in 2016/17. NHSE have now instructed CCGs
to make payment to LCFT for this funding. A further £1,033k CQUIN funding across CCG contracts is agreed based on the Trust's engagement and
commitment to the STP process. Confirmation has been received via BWD CCG that this element of funding has been agreed by the STP.
The Trust is awaiting feedback from NHS England regarding the Cumbria Liaison & Diversion scheme submission but are not expecting any issues.
There are not expected to be any issues with the submission for the Specialist Services schemes for Q3.
Measures are expected to be put into place to ensure that the Trust achieves the remaining CQUIN
funding available and no further losses are seen than those identified in Q2.

Report date 13-Nov-17
The purpose of Delivering the Strategy (DTS) is to deliver the Trust's transformation programme and the operational annual plan. The focus is on
tranformational schemes that are aligned to the STP and LDPs and on continuous improvement of quality within our services. There are 6 DTS
portfolios in 2017/18 aiming to deliver a wide range of redesign programmes.
Programme Description
DTS Programme Report
Overview
Across each network portfolio, for all schemes that have been initiated, work is ongoing to develop detailed delivery plans where this is not already in
place status summarised for each scheme in Programme assurance heat maps.
Further work required to establish benefit trackers for each programme, to enable leads to measure performance and provide robust assurance on
delivery. Work is now underway in preparation for 18/19 Programmes, with plans in place to ensure all dcumentation is inplace for current and new
projects to ensure we can provide robust assurance on delivery from the 1st April.

overall gap of £143k. However, of the pipeline schemes £702k worth of
schemes are rated amber or red so there is significant risk to delivery.

1. Performance Activity Southport & Formby – Summary
121
Southport & Formby - Summary:
All of the teams have had their initial visit from Performance completed, except for the Stoma team whom has only one WTE in the team
out of a total of only 2 WTE staff members; therefore they cannot commit any further resource to the deep dive.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, refresh training which was supporting the deep dive has not taken place which has had an impact on
the audits for Continence and Treatment Rooms. We are hopeful that ongoing validation will continue in late January.
The Performance team has been actively engaging with specific teams to help them to undertake a full review of their caseloads. The aim
of which is to remove patients who are not actively engaging with the service and to give a better reflection of caseload sizes and therefore
understand their capacity within the team and demand on the service. The Performance team are currently looking into Podiatry but due
to the high volume of referrals received in this service, this is an extensive piece of work so may take a few months to complete.
Analysis of all team’s activity, waiting times and any ongoing data quality issues continues to be carried out by the Performance team.
Activity data for all service lines is now produced and submitted to the CCG, however validation of this data continues as there are
continuing data quality issues within certain service lines but with the continued support from Performance and the EMIS team, the data is
improving in accuracy. We have seen a dip in activity in M9, although this is in line with seasonal variation which is expected at this time of
year with less working days, more annual leave and sickness, and fewer referrals overall in clinic based services.
RTT validation has commenced with specific service lines including Falls service, so we should start to see some RTT figures being
reported in the next couple of months.
Patient level data is still to be received from St Helens and Knowsley FTs Pathology Department to enable Performance to validate the
Phlebotomy activity.

Southport & Formby - Continence:
Improvements in data recording and waiting list management continue to improve the waiting list profile for the Continence Service.
The team continue to reduce patients waiting over 18 weeks with all higher waiting list bands reducing and moving through into the lower
waiting bands.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Continence service audit which was scheduled for M8 will not take place until at least M11.
However, teams continue to validate their own data including any general data quality issues, caseload validation and waiting list reviews.

Supporting Executive Director Chief Finance Officer Senior Information Risk Owner (SIRO) PURPOSE OF THE REPORT: Report purpose To provide assurance that the Trust is preparing for the
implementation of GDPR 2018 and that it will be compliant with the changes being introduced
Strategic Objective(s) this work supports
To provide high quality services
Board Assurance Framework risk 1.1 If we do not meet regulatory standards for quality and safety we will not be fit for purpose as a care provider
CQC domain Well-led 1.0 Background and context
The European Union determined that the divergent implementation of approaches to Data Protection around Europe has led to inconsistent personal data processing, legal uncertainty and compliance issues. This, together with the advances in technology, and changes in the way in which individuals and organisations communicate and share data, led to an EU review.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the regulation by which the European Parliament, the Council of the European Union and the European Commission are strengthening and unifying data protection for all individuals within the European Union (EU).
The GDPR will apply in the UK from 25 May 2018. The government has confirmed that the UK’s decision to leave the EU will not affect the commencement of the GDPR.
2.0 What will be different that is not covered by the current data protection law?
There will be a number of changes to the obligations placed on organisations and on how personal information is processed. The Regulation reinforces the importance of accountability and requires greater demonstration of evidence based compliance, enhanced rights for the data subject and significant increased penalties for breaches of the Regulation. In addition the Regulation requires that all organisations have access to a Data Protection Officer (DPO) and for large public bodies processing large volumes of personal data there is an expectation that the organisation will have their own DPO role.
Refer to Appendix No.1 for a full summary of the differences.
3.0 What will be the Impact on the Trust?
Although there are significant changes, much of the GDPR is familiar territory. The transition from Data Protection Act 1998 to the General Data Protection Regulations will be easier for organisations that have embraced the culture and approach advocated by the Information Commissioners Office.
The Trust has a wide range of good practice which underpins compliance. However as we move forward there will be greater significance placed on the accountability for data protection and how this is embedded in our governance framework. GDPR focuses attention on identifying responsibilities and having strong ability to verify observance of the law.
The IG team will work in partnership with Networks and Support Service areas to deliver the GDPR implementation readiness plan. It is good practice to complete a gap plan as it informs an implementation or readiness action plan. The Information Commissioners (ICO) office produced a Twelve Steps Checklist list to identify the changes coming and to assist organisations to assess their compliance position. The gap document is quite detailed and therefore has not been appended to this document. However the twelve steps checklist is appended. The gap analysis considers what we currently do, what we need to do to be compliant, the method and who to collaborate with so that there is collective ownership.
However the GDPR implementation readiness plan is included at appendices 2 and 3. Completion of tasks will be monitored and reported to the Corporate Governance and Compliance Sub Committee. Employment of the formal Information Asset Owner/Information Asset Administrator (IAO/IAA) structure will be key to assisting completion of preparatory tasks and activities.
4.0 Where would we be if GDPR had come in last year? Would there be any difference in our position?
The last year has seen systematic improvements in our organisational stance towards compliance with the Data Protection Act. We have implemented a formal IAO/IAA structure which is steadily embedding best practice across the Trust.
The following are examples that prove the Trust’s ability to maintain compliance of the current data protection law:
• Information Governance Toolkit (IGT) score – demonstrating above satisfactory assurance
• Internal IGT Audit by MIAA– Significant assurance
• No enforcement action or fines by the Information Commissioners Office (ICO)
• Structured process for Serious Incident assessment and approval
• IGT incidents reported on Datix
• Governance and accountability structure in place from both the networks and support areas and from IG
• Consent for direct care purposes is not required as processing is for medical purpose under current data protection law and the future GDPR. Processing of personal data for healthcare is so that the Trust can perform its official function and this has a clear basis in law. Explicit informed consent should still be sought and obtained for non direct care purpose and must be valid.
5.0 GDPR readiness – Key pieces of work to be completed
• The current Privacy Notice also known as a Fair Processing Notice is inadequate and lacks sufficient detail and explanation to meet the new regulation. Currently the Trust meets the minimum requirement and this is provided in a single Fair Processing notice poster that is accompanied by a service user information booklet called ‘Sharing your information with us’. It only advises the legal basis for data collection and sharing and does not expand on the information rights of individuals or make available contact information. The poster and booklet are currently available across Trust sites including in-patient areas/clinics and out patients areas/receptions and so forth .The booklet provides more explanation but this too can be improved. The Trust needs to look at all possible methods and media open to it to meet the needs of as many patient groups as possible e.g. social media, correspondence, local information notices and so forth.
• All Contracts involving the use of Personal identifiable and confidential data must be reviewed to ensure that there are adequate Information Governance clauses in place and that they are registered on the Trust Contracts register (only for £30K+). IG, Contracts and Procurement will work closely to establish intelligence for this. As data controller the Trust must have assurance in regard to data protection compliance from all data processors that have been engaged to do business with the Trust
• There is a need to review the current Datix reporting and IGT Serious Incident Requiring Investigation (SIRI) assessment and approval process to meet the new 72hrs reporting threshold. Specifically, once the Trust has become ‘aware’ that a serious incident has occurred, i.e. that some facts have been established to confirm the nature and severity of the incident, the Trust has 72 hours to report the incident to the ICO. It is anticipated that the current SIRI system used to report the serious incident to the ICO will be amended before May 2018
• Continue to develop the Information Asset register and Data Flow Mapping register – this is central to identifying the Trust processing activities
• Formal Data Protection Officer (DPO) role to be in place. IG Lead is currently registered as the Trust DPO but this is not formally recognised and the role as it stands is more for contact purposes. The extent of the DPO role will be more significant within the organisation and needs to be formally defined within a job description in line with the requirements of the GDPR. The DPO role will need to be in place by 25th May 2018.
• On-going GDPR communications with the networks and support services
• As part of data collection review clinical systems to ensure that consent obtained for non direct care is properly recorded and does not soley rely on a tick box to validate informed consent being obtained
For an overview of completed and planned activity, along with a report using the ICO website GDPR readiness tool, please see Appendices 2 and 3
6.0 Are there any significant risks?
• Financial – level 1 10,00,00 euros or 2% of Net annual turnover, whichever is the greater or level 2 20,000,000 euros or 4% of net annual turnover, whichever is the greater. Both levels of fines are a significant increase to the previous fine regime which was a maximum of £500K for a serious breach. In context, a company that has an annual turnover of £10 million and receives a level 1 monetary penalty could be looking at a maximum fine of £200K. Using the same example turnover figure, a level two monetary penalty could result in a £400K fine. Whilst these potential monetary fines are cause for concern, the introduction of the new higher fines regime is targeted at the large
private corporations e.g. Talk Talk, Facebook and Google etc and not particularly at the health sector
• Incident reporting timescale will be set at 72 hours. This will create pressures in the system which will have to be addressed.
• Readiness / Implementation timescale to be compliant with new Regulation i.e. by 25th May 2018.
• A lack of continued development of information asset registration and data flow mapping could compromise compliance. The Trust must have an understanding of its data processing activities i.e. the life cycle of data from collection to disposal
• Additional demands on the central Information Governance function will need to be reviewed and addressed to ensure that adequate resource is available
• The National GDPR communications campaign will bring heightened public awareness of information rights. The removal of charges for Subject Access requests (SAR) may have an impact of the Trust and result in an increase of requests to process
7.0 What processes does the Trust already have in place i.e. controls and assurance?
• GDPR gap analysis – This document is based on the ICO twelve steps guidance. It is large volume and therefore has not been appended to this paper. It will be presented to senior management meetings.
• GDPR action plan completed. Refer to appendices for detail.
• GDPR Communications have already commenced – briefing to Board, Corporate Governance and Compliance, Joint SIRO and Caldicott Guardian meeting, Clinical Records and Information Governance meeting, Network Business Delivery group meetings. General briefings will be published to the wider Trust leading up to May 2018. This will be in the form of posters that can be displayed for staff and patients, via Trust Pulse, information awareness within personal ‘My-compliance’ portal, at team meetings and at IG related training.
• IGT Satisfactory rating supported by Internal Audit IGT rating
• New SAR timescale in place – SAR register set up with new timeframe in readiness for implementation, new controls introduced in June 2017 and a new centralised process is proposed to manage and control all SAR’s for the Trust effective from Q1 2018.
• Robust Trust wide governance and assurance framework
• Serious IG Incident assessment using NHS Digital Serious Incident Requiring Investigation (SIRI) criteria and Trust approval protocol for registering the incident
• Introduced a formal Information Asset Management including data flow mapping
• Information sharing agreements (ISA’s) in place with multiple service partners
• Privacy Impact assessments (PIA’s) which are currently ‘best practice’ risk assessments and not a legal requirement until GDPR is in force. The document identifies any risks concerned with pieces
of work/projects/applications/software that process personal data and the controls and assurance in place. This has been standard practice in the Trust for approximately two years
• Currently establishing signed ISA’s with GP’s as part of the Medical Interoperability Gateway (MIG). This is a secure gateway to a set of services for exchanging real time data between trusted and secure third party systems. This will allow LCFT to view GP records and the GP’s will use the gateway to view LCFT records as part of the RiO implementation
8.0 Any there any lessons learned already or to be learned?
• Senior management commitment is required to maintain momentum of compliance activities and practices
• IAO/IAA structure responsibilities are pivotal to ensuring compliance
• Ensure that there is a clear alignment between the strategic Information Governance risk and any required changes in the control and assurance of the organisation
9.0 Conclusion The Trust is making progress in readiness for the new data protection law. It has recognised and identified the work that still needs to take place and fully supported by the organisation will achieve compliance.
10.0 Recommendation
The Trust Board is asked to support all associated requirements and activities in readiness to be compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation 2018 that comes into force in on 25th May 2018.
Appendix No.1 Summary of Differences between the Data Protection Act (DPA) 1998 and the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) 2018
DPA GDPR Reach Only applies to the UK
Applies to the whole of the EU and, crucially, also to any
global company which holds data on EU citizens
Enforcement Enforced by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO)
Compliance will be monitored by a Supervisory
Authority in the UK with each European country having
its own SA. The ICO is the UK’s SA
Penalties Non-compliance can result in fines of up to £500,000 or 1% of annual turnover
The potential penalties for non-compliance are much more severe with fines of up to a maximum of €20 million or 4% of the businesses annual global turnover
Data Protection Officer Under the current legislation there is no need for any business to have a dedicated DPO
A DPO is mandatory for any business or organisation
with more than 250 employees
Data Breaches
Businesses are under no obligation to report data
breaches though they are encouraged to do so
A serious data breach must be reported to the ICO (Supervisory Authority) within 72 hours of the incident
Data Erasure (removal)
There is no requirement for an organisation to remove
all data they hold on an individual
An individual will have the ‘Right to erasure’ – which
includes all data including web records with all
information being permanently deleted. This is
applicable to Corporate and Private organisations and is
unlikely to apply to health providers as a health history/
record is required to deliver care and treatment.
Privacy by design
Protection Impact Assessments (PIA) are not a legal
requirement under DPA but has always being
‘championed’ by the ICO
Data Privacy Impact Assessments (DPIA) will be
mandatory and must be carried out when there is a high
risk to the freedoms of the individual. A DPIA helps an
organisation to ensure they meet an individual’s
expectation of privacy and should be completed for all
projects involving the processing of personal / sensitive
information
Opting in and Privacy Notices Data collection does not necessarily require an opt-in under the current Data Protection Act. Basic Fair processing notices (Privacy Notices) required outlining reasons for processing, who it may be shared with and so forth
The need for consent underpins GDPR. However consent is not required for direct care purposes. Individuals must opt-in whenever data is collected by health providers for non direct care purposes with affirmation recorded. There must be clear privacy notices which provide full explanation of information rights. Those notices must be concise and transparent, available in multiple media and individuals must be made aware that their consent can be withdrawn at any time
Subject Access Individuals may request copies of the personal data held about them by the organisation and be charged up to £50 per request. The organisation must respond within forty calendar days
GDPR has removed the charge for a request (charges may be applied by exception for large volume or complicated requests) and the organisation must respond within one calendar month
Accountability No specific accountability principle and accountability is limited Data protection governance down to best endeavours
Accountability is explicit. Organisations must be able to
demonstrate they comply with the principles of
GDPR. Crucially, it is the organisations responsibility to
ensure compliance.
Data Responsibility Responsibility rest with the Data Controller
Rests with both the controller and processor with the controller being able to seek damages from the processor
Right to Compensation Any person who has material damage is entitled to claim compensation
Any person who has suffered material or non-material damage is entitled to claim compensation

Board Assurance Framework risk 4.1
CQC domain Well-led Introduction: The LCFT Workforce Board Report has been designed to provide the Board with a quarterly update on the organisations performance against ten agreed workforce Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s). The data presented is supported with narrative that highlights the current workforce management challenges being experienced by the Business. The structure of the narrative is designed to provide high level information about the remedial and supportive activities and actions being taken to manage performance improvement and provide assurance to the Board that the organisation is committed to effectively managing and mitigating the identified workforce management risks. This report provides performance against the workforce indicators for the Quarter 3 period, 01 October 2017 to 31 December 2017. The data presented in this report is sourced from the following LCFT Directorates:
• Human Resources • Human Resources Quality Academy • Finance
Information to support the preparation of narrative is provided by HR Business Partners in conjunction with Network Management. Members of the Board are invited to note the content of the report and are encouraged to ask any questions and make requests for further information with the Director of Human Resources. Workforce KPI Performance Headlines: The workforce indicators set out on page 3 of the Workforce Board Report present LCFT’s overall performance against the ten workforce KPI’s in the Quarter 3 period.
Performance is rated against the Trusts defined targets, using the Red and Green indicators adopted by LCFT. These are supplemented with an indicative performance trend arrow. The trend is set against performance reported in the previous quarter. 1. Peripheral Workforce Reliance LCFT’s use of a Bank and Agency workforce has increased through the Q3 period, closing the
quarter at 12.08%. Although the trend through the period has been upward, overall spend at the close of the quarter shows a slight reduction against the closing position of Q2. The LCFT Bank Workforce continues to be the primary source of flexible labour for the Trust.
2. Operational Gap The Trust operating gap continues to report a stable 2.86% at the close of Q3 and remains below
the Trust target of 5%. The total operating gap (including Sickness Absence and Annual Leave absences) is 13.6% at the
close of Q3. This is a slight increase on the Q2 closing percentage of 11.46%. 3. Sickness Absence
Sickness Absence has increased in the last month of the quarter, closing Q3 at 7.32%. This is an increased position when compared with performance across Q2. All Networks continue to focus on Sickness Absence Management and have undertaken internal reviews on how they are managing and tracking the management of sickness in their networks to ensure that they are adopting the best and most effective approach for their particular services and system needs. This quarter’s dedication to making sustainable improvements in this area has resulted in the following activity in Long Term sickness across the networks: 128 individuals have been facilitated to return to work 4 individuals have been identified for redeployment 4 individuals have been dismissed on the grounds of capability 5 individuals have resigned from their position with the Trust.
Long term and short term sickness absence have changed places in the quarter with Long Term
sickness now accounting for just under half of all absences. The position at the close of the quarter is 49.32% s attributable to Long Term absence and 50.68% attributable to Short Term absence.
4. Vacancy Rate The Board Report provides two rates to support the assessment of vacancies.
Establishment Vacancy Rate: The number of vacancies the business runs with against its Budgeted Establishment
Active Vacancy Rate: The number of vacancies being actively recruited to (this is a count of any vacancy that is within the recruitment process from recruitment authorisation through to starting with the trust).
The budgeted establishment vacancy rate has continued the upward trend seen in Q2, through the Q3 period and reports a closing rate of 12.97%.
The number of these in active recruitment at the close of Q3 is 62.65%. This equates to 772 ‘live’
recruitment events totalling 530.05 FTE across the Trust. 34 of these vacancies are at the internal redeployment recruitment stage (26.78 FTE) and 738 vacancies are in Open Recruitment (503.27 FTE).
5. Safer Employment Compliance
• Core Workforce Compliance in recruiting and employment, across the Core Workforce, continues to perform well
with 100% compliance in Safer Recruitment practice and 98% for Safer Employment practice.
• Bank Workers Compliance within the Bank Only Worker population for Safer Recruitment Practice and Safe Bank
Worker Engagement Practice also continues to perform well with both reporting 99% compliance in Q3.
6. Turnover Rate
Quarter 3 has seen a slight increase in the Trust Turnover rate, reporting 14.69% at the close of the quarter.
7. Appraisal Performance Quarter 3 of the 2017/18 performance year includes PDR quarterly review activity in the compliance measure. The Quarter 3 Appraisal report uses four categories to measure PDR activity and performance against the Trust target:
The proportion of employees who have either: 1. The proportion of employees who have initiated their 2017/18 PDR in the ePDR system have objectives
in place and have review activity recorded. 2. Have completed the Medical Workforce Appraisal process.
1. New Starters, within the 60 day grace period, who have registered with the ePDR system but do not yet
have personal objectives in place. 2. Members of the Medical Workforce who have arrangements in place to complete their Medical Appraisal
and are inside the approved timescales for completion.
The proportion of existing employees who have either: 1. Have not initiated the 2017/18 PDR in the ePDR system. 2. Have not registered with the ePDR system and for whom we have no information. 3. Members of the Medical Workforce who have not completed the Medical Appraisal process and are
outside of their ‘Appraisal birthday’. 4. Have initiated their 2017/18 PDR but who do not have objectives in place 5. Have objectives in place but have not completed a review
The proportion of New Starters, within the 60 day grace period, who have not registered with the ePDR system.
The overall Trust Appraisal compliance rate for Q3 (inclusive of the Medical Workforce) is 49.05%. This is an improved position against the Q2 reported closing rate. Compliance remains below the Trust target of 85%
8. Mandatory & Statutory Training Compliance Overall mandatory and statutory training compliance continues to improve and has achieved the
Trust Target, reporting an overall compliance of 92% at the close of Q3. Significant improvements have been achieved in this area over the last performance year and continue to be sustained.
The People sub-committee continues to monitor this target closely and each Network reports
improvements in compliance and accuracy of centrally held compliance data. 9. Induction The Induction completion rate continues to perform well and reports 97.78% at the close of Q3. Damian Gallagher HR Director

Hot Spot Analysis:
Mental Health Network: The Establishment Vacancy Rate has slightlyincreased through Quarter 3 closing at 12.64%. The number of thosevacancies being actively recruited to has also slightly increased through thequarter and reports 57.99%.
Board Assurance: The Guild have reviewed and enhanced the preceptorship programme to
attract Band 5 nurses into the Service to promote retention. A series of Exit Interview sessions have been planned in for Nursing
Support and Nursing staff who have notified us that they are leaving tohelp the service better understand the reasons people are leaving and tosee how this information can support a retention plan. Stay Interviewsessions are also being considered.
The Network are managing some small scale transformation programmesand a number of vacancies are being held to support displaced staff andthe redeployment process.

Community & Wellbeing Network: Sickness absence has steadily increasedthroughout Q3 and closes the quarter with a rate of 7.72%. This closing ratemeans the Network have not met their sickness absence trajectory target for Q3.Seasonal factors and the continued roll-out of HealthRoster are considered ascontributors.
Board Assurance: Network focus on Sickness Absence continues and remains a top priority of
ExSMT and has resulted in 3 dismissals due to capability (ill health) during Q3. Action plans are in place for significant Long Term Sickness cases. Only 1 case
over 12 months remains active and will proceed to a hearing early Q4. The Network introduced new systems and processes in September to increase
business focus on sickness absence management. The impact of this can beseen in the policy compliance evidence being provided through the network forthe management of short term absence. More focus and scrutiny is planned inthis area through Q4 as compliance, although improved, remains low.

Q3 BAF Review Andrew Mawdsley, Risk & Assurance Business Partner
Discussion 22.01.18
1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for ensuring that systems and controls are
in place that are adequate to mitigate any significant strategic risks which threaten the
achievement of the strategic objectives.
1.2 The strengthened management processes around the analysis and evaluation of risk which
compliments the governance arrangements, continues to support more detailed analysis,
which has provided Senior Leadership Team with an opportunity to look at the aggregation
of risk from a management perspective and examine the impact on the strategic priorities of
the organisation.
1.3 As part of the Q3 process the Board Assurance Framework (BAF) has been reviewed in
detail with each risk owner. The review has considered:
The need to consider the re-scoring of the BAF risks taking account of an assessment
of the assurances and controls and any gaps identified during Q3. This takes particular
account of assurances delivered through the governance meetings and information in
the Chairs’ Reports.
Work to strengthen the analysis of mitigating actions required to close the gap between
the current risk score and the target risk score.
Ensuring that systems and controls are in place that are adequate to mitigate any
significant strategic risks which threaten the achievement of the strategic objectives.
1.4 The report provides an opportunity for the Board to review the Q3 BAF risk position along
with the operational plan objectives aligned with the BAF. In addition, themes and gaps
that the Risk and Assurance team have identified as part of the risk profiling and assurance
mapping are included which has also been informed through discussions with Executive
Directors and reporting through to the corporate governance meetings.
2.0 RISK ASSURANCE PROCESS 2.1 Review of the Board Assurance Framework (BAF) is carried out at each committee and
sub-committee for the BAF risks, providing an opportunity to consider the information
relating to the BAF risks, commission additional assurances and identify any associated
risks that need escalating or de-escalating. Operational objectives that are mapped to the
BAF risks are included within the BAF risk reports, providing the position in terms of the
achievement of each objective. This supports the identification of any additional
assurances that may need to be commissioned by the Chair as well as recognising where
the achievement of objectives may support the mitigation and control of the BAF risks.
2.2 The 15 and above risks are scored using the Trust’s standard risk scoring matrix and are
aligned against the relevant BAF risk so that Executive Directors have the opportunity to
review significant operational risks as reported on Datix. These risks may also collectively
impact on the strategic risks contained within the BAF. The review of 15 and above risks
takes place in management meetings across the organisation as well as at sub-committee
level in the organisation.
2.3 To support the Q3 review of the BAF risks, the Risk and Assurance team has collated
assurance information throughout the quarter onto the Assurance Map. The information has
been identified through attendance at sub-committee meetings and review of chairs reports
from all sub-committees. The assurance mapping has been used to support discussions
with Executive Directors and assist with updating of the BAF risks. .
2.4 The Risk Surveillance activity that the Risk and Assurance Team have introduced during
Q2 includes a process of quality review of risks that are added to the Datix system. The
key focus for Q3 has been a review of the risk titles to ensure that they are framed
appropriately and reviewing long standing risks. Through adopting this proactive approach,
the team have also been able to support colleagues from across the organisation in their
understanding of the risk management process
3.0 REVIEW OF THE BAF STRATEGIC RISK REGISTER Q3
3.1 The quarterly review process provides an opportunity for Executive Director leads to meet
with the Risk and Assurance Team to discuss the update of their relevant risks. All these
meetings have taken place and adjustment to the BAF risks has subsequently been
undertaken prior to review by Senior Leadership Team on 22.01.18. The proposed end of
Q3 position for the BAF risks with associated operational plan objectives can be viewed in
Appendix 1.
3.2 The Heat Maps for the year to date can be reviewed in Appendix 3. There has been a
decrease in the scoring of risks during Q3 as follows:-
BAF risk 2.1 – If we do not work collaboratively with partners we will not be able to
influence system wide transformation.
This risk has decreased in score as a result of the collaborative work that has taken place
during Q3. It is acknowledged that the loss of universal services poses risks that will be
managed operationally but in the wider scope of the Trust there has been an increase in
collaboration work. Conversations have taken place to develop robust collaboration across
multi organisation recovery learning disability and the Trust is exploring partnership with
Cumbria Partnership. The joint integrated Discharge team with LCC and the CCGs is now
up and running.
4.0 REVIEW AND THEMING OF RISKS
The following themes have consistently been reported to Trust Board since Q1 2017/18.
These themes are still considered to be appropriate, with the relevant updated wording as
below:
4.1.1 Financial The challenge to close the financial gap and achieving the control total has increased
throughout the quarter. At the end of Q3 there is an improved position reported in that the
gap has reduced by £2m, with a saving of £4m still needing to be identified to achieve the
agreed control total. The position continues to be driven by staffing pressures as a result of
excess activity, sickness absence and high levels of acuity in in-patient services in
particular. The delayed progress in delivering against planned cost improvement
programmes, land sales, VAT and non-payment of additional activity are also key factors.
There is a continued focus on key actions in the Financial Recovery Plan to minimise the
impact of these pressures, with recognition that the impact of a health economy under
significant strain is a crucial element.
4.1.2 Workforce Clinical staffing shortages continue to be a key pressure during Q3 which have an impact
on the health and wellbeing of the people working in the organisation, as well as on the
financial position and ultimately the quality of services provided. This in turn is impacted by

Target

a higher There are also continued challenges with recruitment, managing sickness
absence and core skills/ PDR compliance. The overall core skills rate is above the Trust
target of 85% (Q3 achieved 92% in mandatory and statutory overall compliance).
Compliance remains below target for 2 of the 18 key core skill indicators (Basic Life Support
81% and Immediate Life Support 77%) are below the target of 85%. The People Plan
continues to be a fundamental programme of work, although work is still required to ensure
that the People Plan is having the desired impact.
4.1.3 Quality The strong operational risk profile across a number of BAF risks highlights the significant
challenge in providing quality services which links closely to the other themes within this
report, such as finance and workforce in particular. There are continued challenges relating
compliance with regulatory requirements and learning from adverse events. Clinical staff
shortages continue to impact on the challenge to achieve safer staffing across the Trust.
Governance and risk management processes have been strengthened and there is on-
going delivery of our Quality Led Strategy, supported by the Quality Plan priorities. The
focused CQC inspection of the Trust is underway during quarter four.
High levels of acuity are impacting on staffing levels. Where this is related to placing of
patients within an inappropriate therapeutic environment, conversations are taking place
with commissioners to ensure that appropriate placements are found. The higher acuity
can significantly affect the staffing levels which in turn links to a correlation in increased
violence and aggression and instances of restraint. Quality Committee continue to review
assurances relating to the work underway to mitigate this.
4.1.4 Collaboration and Partnerships The Trust continues to be an active partner in system-wide clinical and non-clinical
workstreams, as well as Local Delivery Plans, leading and supporting the development of
new models of care. In Q3, the Board took the opportunity to consider in more detail our
place in the STP and the outputs from this session has sharpened our focus in a number of
key areas.
The collaboration between mental health services and acute services continues to be a
priority in supporting how the system responds to the winter pressures. The joint integrated
Discharge team with LCC and the CCGs is now up and running and the implementation of
Core 24 has taken place. Conversations are taking place to develop the collaboration with
Cumbria Partnership. The impact of the loss of the universal services contract continues to
be a factor in relation to the impact on the BAF risks.
5.0 OPERATIONAL RISK EXPOSURE
5.1 An in-depth review of the operational risks has been undertaken which has resulted in the
updating of the ‘operational risk exposure summary’ section for each BAF risk. These can
be viewed on the BAF document in Appendix 2. The analysis has also resulted in the
production of a thematic summary of the operational risks. This can be viewed along with a
breakdown of new, escalated, reduced and closed operational risks throughout Q2 at
Appendix 3.

Data extracted from Datix:
22 January 2018
APPENDIX 1
Board Assurance Framework Legend Strategic Priority: The 2017/22 strategic priority that the BAF risk has been aligned to. BAF Risk: The title of the strategic risk that threatens the achievement of the aligned strategic priority. CQC Domain: Key areas at the heart of the way that CQC regulates organisations.
2017/18 Shared Objectives: Provide a shared understanding of what our must dos are for 2017/18. The Trust has 7 shared objectives that are our focus for the next 12 months and each individual team or service business plan will contribute towards achieving them.
Risk Appetite Rationale: The statement that outlines the Board’s view on the level of risk willing to be taken against the relevant strategic priority that supports the management and actions taken to mitigate the risk.
Rationale for Risk: Further detail of what the BAF risk is taking account of which supports alignment of other elements, such as operational risk and controls/assurances. Key Work Programmes: There are the key programmes that support the delivery of the strategic objectives and support the mitigation of the BAF risks. Rationale for Current Risk Score: This narrative is updated on a quarterly basis and provides a summary of the information that has supported the assessment of the BAF risk. Provider Licence Compliance: NHS Improvement provider licence conditions that align to the BAF risk to provide assurance on compliance. Operational Risk Exposure: The key areas of operational risk scored 15 and above that align with the BAF risk and have the potential to impact on the score. Controls: The measures in place to reduce the risk likelihood or risk consequence and assist secure delivery of the strategic priority. Assurances: The measures in place to provide confirmation that the controls are working effectively in supporting the mitigation of the risk. Gaps in Controls: Areas that require attention to ensure that systems and processes are in place to mitigate the BAF risk. Gaps in Assurance: Areas where there is limited or no assurance that processes and procedures are in place to support the mitigation of the BAF risk.
Mitigating Actions: Operational plan objectives aligned to the BAF risks which on completion will provide additional controls to mitigate the BAF risk. When these actions are outstanding, they are an important consideration in assessing gaps in controls and assurances.
CQC Domains - Five questions asked of all services
Are they safe? Safe: you are protected from abuse and avoidable harm. Are they effective? Effective: your care, treatment and support achieves good outcomes, helps you to maintain quality of life and is based on the best available evidence. Are they caring? Caring: staff involve and treat you with compassion, kindness, dignity and respect. Are they responsive to people’s needs? Responsive: services are organised so that they meet your needs.
Are they well-led? Well-led: the leadership, management and governance of the organisation make sure it’s providing high-quality care that’s based around your individual needs, that it encourages learning and innovation, and that it promotes an open and fair culture.

RISK APPETITE RATIONALE: We are willing to take risk in those activities that have been identified to improve quality and clearly impact on motivating, engaging and empowering people who deliver and support delivery of services. (There is an averse appetite in relation to any impact on non-compliance with regulatory standards.) RATIONALE FOR RISK: This risk reflects the Trust position to not tolerate failure in basic standards of compliance which could compromise care quality, statutory requirements and licence conditions. This risk takes into account all issues that may prevent compliance with regulatory standards and includes issues relating to the delivery of safe services which may affect the quality of services. The key challenges relating to this risk include safer staffing, the reduction of violence and the improvements in harm free care.

RATIONALE FOR CURRENT RISK SCORE: The CQC Re-inspection in September 2016 rated the Trust as Good with an acknowledgement that there are some areas for improvement. Governance and risk management processes have been strengthened and there is on-going delivery of our Quality Led Strategy, supported by the Quality Plan. However, a CQC inspection of offender healthcare services at HMP Liverpool in September 2017 has identified areas for improvement and there are specific areas of concern in relation to quality such as safer staffing and violence. The focused CQC inspection of the Trust is underway during quarter four. As a result of these factors the risk has remained at 16 for Q3.
OPERATIONAL RISK EXPOSURE SUMMARY: PROVIDER LICENCE COMPLIANCE: There are a number of quality and safety themed risks relating to physical violence to staff, restraint and pressure ulcers. There are also operational risks relating to IG, data quality, mental health legislation and services provided at HMP Liverpool. These risks along with the risks resulting from staff shortages have a potential impact on quality and compliance with regulatory standards and Trust procedures.

QUALITY PRIORITIES: 1. Core Skills 2. Supervision 3. Appraisals 6. Holistic and Care Planning 12. Reduction in Violence and Aggression
RATIONALE FOR CURRENT RISK SCORE: The Trust has a range of approaches and systems to support the culture of continuous learning and improvement. These have been strengthened over recent years with initiatives such as the Investigations and Learning Team and refreshed Quality Plan. However, cultural change is a gradual process and there are some parts of the organisation where challenges exist to learning and improvement. Equally, service pressures impact upon learning and communication.
OPERATIONAL RISK EXPOSURE SUMMARY: PROVIDER LICENSE COMPLIANCE:
Learning from adverse events is not always embedded within teams and lack of consistent re-assessment process for patient admitted to 136 suites have an impact on on creating a culture of learning at the Trust.

RATIONALE FOR CURRENT RISK SCORE: Requirement to improve whole person holistic care and ensure the organisation provides parity of esteem in relation to mental healthcare and physical healthcare. There is significant challenge to ensure that physical and mental health is delivered in a holistic way. Particular challenges in relation to this relate to the capacity to deliver and the quality of physical healthcare training for Trust staff. In addition, local authority public health spending cuts are impacting on commissioned services and population access to key health and wellbeing services. Clarification required of reporting structures for work streams which previously reported to PHPH group.
OPERATIONAL RISK EXPOSURE SUMMARY: PROVIDER LICENSE COMPLIANCE:
The key operational risks for this BAF risk relate to medicine management including risks associated with compliance with medicine management procedures, safety & security and storing of medicines and staffing shortages.
IC1 - Provision of integrated care
CONTROLS: 1. The Nerve Centre using the alert system for physical health care 2. MECC embedded into everyday practice for staff (MD Operational Plan obj 10) 3. Chief Clinical Information Officer in post who will lead on implementation of an EPR which supports

medicines management nurses 7. Hydration Assessment Procedure developed which includes a hydration assessment, revised fluid
balance chart, clinical pathways and training for staff 8. Monitoring of CQUINS and participation in national benchmarked audits
ASSURANCES: 1. MECC programme board is a sub-group of the Promoting Health and Preventing Harm Group and provides
regular update reports. (Internal) 2. Weekly Exec led SI meetings – (Internal) 3. Public Health Plan 2017-2020 – (Internal)
GAPS IN CONTROLS: 1. Areas of non-compliance with NMP 2. Lack of training in physical health competencies 3. Need to improve ability to deliver interventions through MECC 4. No consistent process to liaise with acute Trusts and manage SLAs 5. IT systems do not facilitate monitoring of patients on mental health drugs 6. IT systems do not facilitate monitoring and screening of physical health care.
GAPS IN ASSURANCES: 1. The PHPH group is no longer in place and currently there is no clear reporting mechanism for the
workstreams previously reporting to this group to provide any assurance. A new Quality Governance framework will support assurance around this risk, but will not be in place until April 2018
2. Deficiencies in EPR mean it is difficult to produce reports of effectiveness of physical health monitoring. 3. Mental health patients not participating in health screening programmes, and no mechanism to support this. 4. No reviews of SLAs and liaison pathways with acute Trusts to determine if clinical effectiveness is being
delivered. 5. Complete mortality review process not fully implemented

KEY WORK PROGRAMMES: • Financial Plan Benchmarking • Capital Programme • DTS Programme • Capacity and Flow Plan
QUALITY PRIORITIES: 8. Staffing for Quality and Safety
RATIONALE FOR CURRENT RISK SCORE: After adjusting for impairments of £0.2m the adjusted deficit for month 8 is £1.9m which excludes year to date planned Sustainability and Transformation Funding of c£1.1m, against a plan surplus to date of £0.9m. Performance is therefore £2.9m behind the plan and £1.6m behind the control total (excluding STF). The position continues to be driven by staffing pressures in ward and prison areas and the slow start to delivery against planned cost improvement programmes. In addition, expenditure is exceeding funding on OAPs resulting in current and forecast pressures. Performance does however show an improvement on the Month 7 position of £0.5m and an in month surplus over plan of £0.3m. Unmitigated projections indicate a gap of c£4.6m (£6.8m including STF), which highlights the challenge the Trust faces in achieving the control total.
OPERATIONAL RISK EXPOSURE SUMMARY: PROVIDER LICENSE COMPLIANCE: The operational risks associated with this BAF risk related to staffing, use of bank and agency and property services (repayment of debts and vacated leases), non-achievement of the control target, achievement of CIP plans and capital expenditure.

ASSURANCE SUB-COMMITTEE TO REVIEW: Infrastructure ASSURANCE COMMITTEE TO REVIEW: Finance and Performance
RISK APPETITE RATIONALE: We will accept risk where innovations are identified that will enhance patient experience, reduce costs and/or improve quality. We will actively seek higher risk/higher return projects and strive to establish pioneering partnerships that can support execution and exploitation of innovation projects. (There is an averse appetite in relation to any impact on non-compliance with regulatory standards.) RATIONALE FOR RISK: Revised Phase A and Phase B early adopter approach agreed at 09.01.18 EPR PMG following consideration of readiness checklists. Workstreams are progressing but amber statuses exist across some key workstreams including Business Change, System Design & Configuration. Recovery plans are in place and statuses should improve following the phasing decision as referenced above. Programme Management changes embedded (although under continual improvement review) and recruitment to the resource profile is being progressed. The programme document set is being updated and improved. Monthly programme financial reviews are mainstreamed with the Network Accountant/s - Corporate Services. Formal paper outlining programme sequence and iPM replacement has been reviewed at SLT. Tranche 2 now confirmed as Secure Care & IPM replacement. RISK RATING:

RATIONALE FOR CURRENT RISK SCORE During Q3 the Programme has progressed as planned in the majority of areas but there have been a number of issues which have required recovery plans to be implemented, reflected in the revised Phase A & Phase B approach for the early adopter services. The Programme has current resource shortages due to delays in initiating recruitment & also staff sickness. Mitigation plans are in place to accelerate recruitment and cover sickness where possible. Key workstreams within the programme are at an amber status due to the above shortages and some weaknesses within the programme start-up phase. The development of integration with eMIS using the Medical Interoperability Gateway (MIG) and ‘Smart View’ technologies is dependent on a third party named HealthCare Gateway. Delays in initiating this piece of work and lead times at Healthcare Gateway have delayed this work-stream although this does not impact upon the planned Go Live dates. A recovery plan is in place. The issues above and current aggregated profile of the EPR risk register warrant the score remaining at 16

Operational Risk Exposure Summary Thematic Summary A review of the risks rated 12 and above has been carried out to provide a thematic summary of the operational risk exposure against each BAF risk. The thematic summary has identified risks of a similar nature that are common across several risk themes. These common themes are outlined below:
1. Staffing, Recruitment and Training – There is a large operational risk profile in this areas that
relates to recruitment and retention of clinical staff (consultants, AHP and nurses) and staff shortages in clinical areas due to a lack registered nurses, staff sickness and lack of bank staff. In addition there are a number of operational risks relating to compliance with training particularly for mental health, mental capacity, deprivation of liberty and violence reduction. There is also a risk highlighting the lack of a training needs analysis for the Trust.
To support the mitigation of these risks staffing recruitment drives and actions plans and actions plans have been developed. Training compliance levels are being monitored is monitored and shared at committee level. These risks have aggregated up to support level to ensure consideration of the risks occurs at appropriate governance meetings to identify control measures and assurance. These risks are a key consideration for the review of BAF risk 4.1 and 4.2 as well as 1.1 from a safety perspective.
2. Compliance with Regulatory Standards and Trust Procedures - There are a number of risks relating to compliance with regulatory and statutory requirements which are both clinical and non-clinical in nature. This includes risks relating to NICE quality standards, Information Governance (GDPR, DPA and records management), mental health legislation (Mental Health Act section 136 and section 17) and health and safety legislations. These risks all have an impact on the Trusts ability to maintain a CQC rating of good. There are also several risks relating to compliance with Trust procedures. This includes medicines management procedures, seclusion policy and nicotine management policy as well as compliance with waiting times.
The overall regulatory burden that the Trust experiences remain high with the risk profile providing corporate awareness of associated risks in this area. Data collection and quality surveillance supports the management of these risks. Risks in this area aligned to BAF risk 1.1 although they may be aligned to other BAF risks depending on the nature of the regulations.
3. Finance - Finance risks run across the majority of themes to include risks relating to staffing, use of bank and agency and property services (repayment of debts and vacated leases). There are also risks that’s have been escalated which are managed at support service/Executive Director Level for mitigation. These risks relate to the non-achievement of the control target, achievement of CIP plans and capital expenditure and property. The Finance Recovery group is in place to provide mitigation of these risks. All finance related risks are considered through the review of BAF risks 5.1 and 5.2.
4. Contracts and Commissioning – Operational risks in this area relates to contracts and commissioning of services including the development of new models of care. Risks in Datix specifically relate to the mobilisation of perinatal services, the loss of universal services, contract requirements at HMP Liverpool and SLAs in place. These risks are considered through the review of BAF risks 2.1 and 2.2.
5. Data Quality – Data quality risks run across a variety of risk themes including EPR, Health Informatics and quality systems. This includes risks to EPR information and system requirements, data/activity reporting in Datix and other systems and the alignment of financial codes to the team
APPENDIX 3
names which impacts several systems across the Trust. The data quality plan supports the mitigation of these risks and assurance reports are regularly reported to sub-committee level. These risks are considered through the review BAF risks 6.1 and 6.2 as well as 1.1 from a quality and safety perspective.
The Risk and Assurance team has responsibility for providing risk management support and the operational risk management systems. This process has been further enhanced during Q3 with the delivery of the Governance and Risk Health Checks for the Medical Directorate and Community and Wellbeing Network. Following the risk health checks we have worked closely with Networks and support services to work on the areas for development identified.
Risk and Assurance training has been launched during Q3. This has consisted sessions provided by the Risk and Assurance team upon request. All Networks have been involved in the training provided and more sessions are scheduled for Q4.
As part of the risk surveillance work carried out by the Risk and Assurance engagement has taken place with teams and risk owners to review risk registers and re-articulate risks. There has also been targeted work carried out to review of long standing risks and risks beyond due date.
