… what people need and what they want;… what care and support arrangements can meet those needs and satisfy those wants;… what staff and other inputs are employed to deliver the associated services; … what are the costs of employing them; and… where and how to raise the funds to meet those costs.
Importantly, they also want to know:… what outcomes are achieved; and … whether those outcomes are worth the cost that is spent to produce them

Research led by Angela Hassiotis (UCL)Compared specialist behaviour service (added to standard provision) with standard provision alone.All staff in the specialist service had received training in order to deliver treatment based on applied behaviour analysis.Randomised controlled trial (n=63 adults) Outcomes better on the Aberrant Behavior Checklist 6 months after randomisation.Costs were no different between the groups.So the specialist team seen to be cost-effective.

Weekly cost, 2002/03 prices
Knapp et al (1992); Hallam et al (2006); Forrester-Jones et al (2012)
Costs initially higher in the community than in hospital.
BUT outcomes were better (self-care skills, choice, participation, social integration, expressed satisfaction)

We are looking at the economic case for interventions to meet the needs and respond to the preferences of people with challenging behaviour Part of a project funded by the NIHR School for Social Care Research.We did not have the time or resources to set up new ‘trials’ (or similar) collecting primary data.Instead, we are working with existing services and (mainly) extant information from previous research to ‘model’ the costs and benefits.

ITSBS aims to enable young people with LD and challenging behaviour to remain within their family and community settings.Provides: (1) intensive support and clinical psychology input with the young person, family, and frontline workers, and (2) an extended short break (as required)Success story in Ealing: 23 clients since 2009, no child with LD placed in long-term care due to their challenging behaviour.Multi-agency: Based within Ealing Services for Children with Additional Needs (ESCAN); funded by the local authority; team led by two clinical psychologists (Catherine Sholl & Caroline Reid)Collaborative initiative: involving clinical psychology, social services and short breaks services; plus ‘usual care’.

Costs:•0.8* FTE Clinical Psychologist *Increased to 1 FTE in March 2013•1 FTE Assistant Psychologist •Approx. 8 extended short breaks packages annually
Benefits:•Client remains in community, and out of residential placements•Challenging behaviours reduced•Families report increased ability to copeMain economic benefit = costs avoided / saved, both short-term and longer term.
We are now estimating those costs and benefits.

Analysis and collection of extant data:• Length of time in ITSBS• Cost per client (i.e. contact time, short breaks, case
studies)• Client Service Receipt Inventory (CSRI) to describe
full care and support patterns (and hence costs)Find and analyse suitable comparison data• What would ‘treatment as usual’ have been in
Ealing? Look at patterns of placement pre-2009? Or in another London borough?
• Seek data from elsewhere to compare with that collected on the young people in Ealing (using the Developmental Behavioural Checklist) comparison
• Also compare data using CSRI from other studies.

We have a little scope for exploring other interventions in this area.Please do send us suggestions / comments / information.
