    16/46 BEST QUALITY OF CARE

    16/46.1 Patient Story The Board welcomed patient volunteer Rose Sweeney (RS) and Petula Storey (PS) the Head of Volunteering. RS outlined the details of the particular recipient volunteer programme 'hospital to home'. The following key points were reported • The 'hospital to home' (H2H) programme is run by the volunteer team;

    • It was established to help vulnerable patients go back home;

    • The programme has a core team of 6 trained volunteers and a staff member

    who coordinates the service;

    • At present it only operates on the Denmark Hill site with plans to extend t the PRUH and Orpington sites in due course;

    • The team work closely with the British Red Cross and strong links with other local community support networks;

    • The patient story focuses on the support given to a couple. The husband was

    admitted to the hospital and his wife was struggling to cope with managing with her unwell husband and the household bills;

    • The H2H service helped the wife manage bills and administration following the death of her husband;

    • H2H also supported the wife connect with social care networks for the support she needed; and

  • Enc. 1.4 Subject to Chair's Approval

    3

    Item Subject Action

    • It was evident from this case that there were lots of issues for this patient such as the fact that she may have been on the brink of dementia which may have explained why she kept falling behind on her bills and that she was in need to specialist care services for instance she wore slippers in the midst of winter because she could not cut her toenails and found it impossible to wear normal shoes.

    The following key points were raised and noted by the Board: • This patient story is a very powerful reminder of how the Trust goes way

    beyond what is its responsibility;

    • It is a shocking story of failures in the system and the H2H programme has to be applauded;

    • The story raises questions about whether or not the Trust provides enough support to its volunteers. There seems the Trust puts a lot on the volunteers and care need to be taken to manage their remit and exposure;

    • Volunteers are given training and guidance on what they can and cannot do for instance they are not allowed to handle money and cannot provide care;

    • This patient story is a perfect illustration of the types of typical issues which

    arise in the community;

    • The story illustrates the importance of holistic health care and the Trust needs to flag how lack of holistic approach impact on the hospitals on the front line;

    • There are big policy issues with lack of social care which is a local government

    issue;

    • The practicalities need to be picked up by the system and through the transformation programme. This is especially true about the creation of local care delivery. The Trust needs to support the process for getting health care on sound care structure that support these types of patients and their families. This is similarly the case in the Bromley area and the Trust needs to work with partners to help these patients. This is going to be hard work and the Trust has to be clear about what the role and remit of its volunteers are because this situation is not sustainable;

    • The Trust should look at an award scheme for its volunteers;

    • The Trust works close with Age UK and SAIL;

    • The Trust should conduct a research project into the volunteer H2H programme and what are the key measures which can be used to inform linkages and what can be learnt from it to help patients further;

  • Enc. 1.4 Subject to Chair's Approval

    4

    Item Subject Action

    • Before the patients are referred to the H2H service a risk assessment is undertaken as part of the discharge process. Higher risk cases go straight to the British Red Cross;

    • Cases such as these should feed into the work the Trust is doing with partners; and

    • This is a powerful and enlightening story and the issues will be picked up and used as examples for wider partnership working.

    16/46.2 Quarterly Outcomes Report The Board received the quarterly patient outcomes report. The following key points were reported: • The Trust missed the target for screening and full assessment of patients for

    dementia at the Princess Royal University Hospital (PRUH);

    • There has been significant improvement in the mortality of patients with hip fracture. Mortality of these patients are high nationally but the Trust's has made strides to improve its performance especially at its PRUH site which was previously underperforming;

    • The Trust did not perform well in previous laparotomy audit as a result of data issues however the improvements have been made and it is hoped the result due to be published in June 2016;

    • Both sites submitted data to the trauma audit and research network (TARN) and it was shown that more patients are surviving major trauma; and

    • Overall patient outcomes are improving.

    The Board raised the following key points in discussion: • It would be good to understand how the Trust benchmarks against other

    Shelford trusts;

    • The Trust is topping the stroke and trauma audit performance targets compared with other trusts; and

    • It is disappointing to see that the PRUH is performing below target for screening

    and assessment of patients for dementia. The dementia services and processes at the Denmark Hill site are well developed and resourced. This is less true at the PRUH and the Trust plans to address this imbalance given the patient population in the Bromley area. The Board would be provided with the data from the audit and the Trust's plans to make improvements in due course.

    Item Subject Action

    16/47 Chief Executive's Report The Board received and noted the report from the chief executive officer (CEO). The following key points were noted in discussion with the Board: • The Trust is moving in the right direction on quality but more needs to be done.

    There is good news on SHMI but there remains more to do on infection control;

    • Patient experience is improving with good feedback;

    • The Trust's access target is the most problematic issue. A&E is very challenged and where the most important work needs to be done;

    • Referral to treatment (RTT) backlogs are coming down and the Trust has systems in place to address the key issues. The Trust went back to reporting its RTT data and is currently one of the worst performers but the Trust is confident it has good data which can be relied on and systems and plans in place to address the backlog;

    • This planning round had been very comprehensive and much more detailed;

    • The Trust is keeping its stakeholders informed and updated on its progress in meeting its operational targets;

    • The Trust needs to make headway on its finances and the key to moving forward is maintaining grip and delivering on the money; and

    • The Trust has delivered the £65m for year end and is now focusing on developing a cost improvement programme which will underpin sustainability.

    The Board raised the following points in discussion: • It is good to see emphasis on customer care and delivering on the

    transformation programme will support further improvements;

    • The executive is thinking about the how it will communicate the transformation programme initiatives and will provide a communications plan to the Board in due course; and

    • The Trust needs to explore with KCL, investment in research, particularly the in relation to discovery science. These conversations are under way and will tie into the Trust's research strategy.

    16/48 TOP PRODUCTIVITY

    16/48.1 Performance Report (M12)

    The Board received and discussed the month 12 performance report which was also discussed at the Finance & Performance Committee meeting held on 26 April 2016.

  • Enc. 1.4 Subject to Chair's Approval

    6

    Item Subject Action

    The following key points were reported • Operational performance is varied but the Trust is broadly in line with trajectory;

    • Emergency department (ED) performance deteriorated in March to 81%. This is

    due in part to the significant increase in attendances by 9%;

    • The Trust has plans in place to improve the ED performance for both sites attaining 95% by the end of 2015/16;

    • The Trust is working closely with commissioners to improve the performance

    against referral to treatment targets;

    • The Trust ended the year off trajectory with its diagnostics target at 5.8%. The Trust has a detailed recovery plan which will deliver 1% by the quarter 2;

    • The Trust is pleased to have delivered all cancer targets with the exception of breast which ended at 92.2% as opposed to the 93% target;

    • The Trust is tightening up its governance process which has been informed by lessons learned. The Trust has critically evaluated it position and putting in place structures to manage the risks; and

    • The size of the task to get the Trust back to sustainability cannot be underestimated but it is deliverable with strong leadership and governance processes which will be embedded in the new organisation structure.

    The Board noted and raised the following key points in discussion: • The Finance and Performance Committee discussed the plans for recovery in

    detail;

    • Running daily patient tracking lists (PTL) is providing increased oversight which enable the Trust to make necessary improvements;

    • The Trust recognise the need to improve its business intelligence services to

    facilitate better evaluation; • The Trust has had its RTT numbers externally validate hence there is significant

    certainty about the current backlog numbers. The Trust will now give effect to its plans to bring down the backlog and deliver 88% by the end of the year. The Trust is moving quickly to address the backlog and working in conjunction with commissioners;

    • The Trust needs to better communicate about the indicators that are on track.

    The Trust needs to be clear about the milestones for achieving these key indicators. To do this work needs to be done on improve tracking and its scorecard reporting;

    • The Board needs a deep dive into the ED performance and give the issue urgent focus;

  • Enc. 1.4 Subject to Chair's Approval

    7

    Item Subject Action

    • The ED performance for month 12 is not too far away from what is expected at this point in the year but the Trust needs to get into the detail about what the drivers are for the increased activity levels;

    • The increased activity cannot be categorised as a blip and similar activity levels can be seen across the sector at other hospitals;

    • A review will be conducted in the utilisation of the theatre resources. There are

    multiple contributing factors;

    • The Trust is firmly signed up to improving performance trajectories and will communicate the current position regularly.

    It was agreed that the Board, through the finance and performance committee, would give urgent focus to the ED performance. It was also agreed that JF would include comparative data in future performance reports.

    FPC/JF

    16/49 SKILLED, CAN DO TEAMS

    16/49.1 Monthly Nurse Staffing Levels Report The Board received and noted the monthly nurse staffing levels report. The following key points were reported: • The Trust's increased number of red shifts relate in part to the decrease in fill

    rates. The Trust has to use healthcare assistants (HCA) to provide additional cover;

    • The staffing issues at the Princess Royal University Hospital (PRUH) relate to high levels of vacancies; and

    • The Trust needs to improve staff rostering and sickness management. The Board raised the following key points in discussion: • Shortage of staff is a long standing issue which is system-wide. The challenge

    particularly lay with retaining band 5 nurses

    • The Trust is developing recruitment strategies to ensure it has the right numbers of staff in place. It should be noted that even with a strategy nurse shortage is a perennial system wide issue. The Trust will have to apply other proactive measures to retain staff such as conducting stay interviews;

    • The Trust has a set a ratio of 70% registered nurses to 30% HCAs on each ward at any given time. This ratio ensures that there is sufficient cover and expertise on each ward; and

    • The Trust recognises there is more to be done with staff retention and the key points from the recent survey will be taken forward with the internal survey.

    It was agreed that the Board would pick up staff retention issues in the July.

    16/49.2 Maternity Patient Story Update GW reported that this item will be picked up at the Quality & Governance Committee as Maxine Spencer could not make it to this meeting to provide an update.

    16/50 FIRM FOUNDATIONS

    Sound Finance

    16/50.1 Finance Report (M12) The Board received and discussed the month 12 finance report which was also discussed at the Finance & Performance Committee (FPC) meeting held on 26 April 2016. The following key points were reported and raised in discussion: • At month 12 the Trust has an actual deficit of £65.4m which was achieved

    through non-recurrent funding;

    • The Trust has worked hard to achieve this position but the challenge remains to remain sustainable; and

    • The Trust did achieve a surplus in March; however, whilst there are no income

    issues, work needs to be done on improving demand capacity going into next year.

    The Board noted the m12 finance report and the following key points: • The FPC reviewed the financial position and whilst it applauded the

    achievement of the forecast position the underlying position needs lots of attention; and

    • The Trust is not complacent about the challenge ahead and focus is turned now to identifying savings target of not exceeding the forecast £30m deficit for 16/17.

    16/50.2 Finance & Performance Committee Chair Update The Board received and noted the report from the Committee Chair.

    Strong Partnerships

    16/51 Integrated Care (Local Care Networks - Southwark & Lambeth) The Board received and discussed the report on local care networks in Southwark and Lambeth. The following key points were reported • The Southwark and Lambeth Integrated Care (SLIC) programme formally

    ended on 31 March 2016;

  • Enc. 1.4 Subject to Chair's Approval

    9

    Item Subject Action

    • The emerging programme of work for integrated care in Lambeth & Southwark will be conducted though a Local Care Network (LCN) managed by the Southwark & Lambeth Strategic Partnership (SLSP);

    • A separate programme is being developed for Bromley; • The SLSP Board had decided to focus on co-design and implementation in

    16/17;

    • The SLSP recognise that most of its work will be focused on widespread culture change across the local system not just the technical process of design and roll-out;

    • To support this process the Trust will need to provide executive resources; • Partners will have to work together to move the key issues up the national

    agenda and share data to inform the programme of work; and

    • KHP's expertise will be a key contribution to this process. The Board raised the following key points in discussion: • It is good news to note the new focus and mobilisation of the integrated care

    agenda and work through the LCN and the codification of the operating model;

    • There is good data and existing studies which will support the work of LCN. Accountabilities, deliverability and monitoring will be embedded in next phase of work;

    • The work of this group could go as far as changing the commissioning framework;

    • Councils have expertise in giving effect to this type of working and using informatics and the LCN should use this as a good source of learning;

    • Tower Hamlets and Surrey are areas where LCN's can be seen to be working well;

    • The partners spent a lot of money on SLIC with very little progress. This must be avoided and more must be achieved under this structure. The work for the sustainable transformation programme (STP) is driving joined-up forward planning with commissioners which will support the work of the LCN. This work has fostered good leadership and relationships; and

    • KHP should be leading this work and drive for system change. It was agreed that the Board would receive a further update in 6 months and that site visit would be conducted to establish LCN's which are working well.

    Item Subject Action

    Rigorous Governance

    16/52 Council of Governors Report The Board received an update on the activities of the Council of Governors from Lead Governor, Chris North. On behalf of the governors he relayed the following key matters: • The Council is keen to hear more about the Trust Transformation programme;

    and

    • It is important that the Trust keep staff engaged and share plans early so that staff takes ownership and feel empowered to deliver these plans.

    16/52.1 Chair's and Non-Executive Director's (NEDs) Activity Report The Board noted the report on the Chair and NED's activity.

    16/52.2 Monitor Quarter 4 Submission The Board noted the submission made to Monitor for quarter 4.

    16/52.3 Confirmed Board Committee Minutes The Board noted and received the confirmed minutes of the Finance & Performance Committee held on 22 March 2016.

    16/53 ANY OTHER BUSINESS

    There were no matters of any other business raised for discussion.

    experience, such as our Child Health wards, services at Orpington and from our TEAM outpatient clinics. However, there are also areas which require significant improvement if we are to achieve our aspiration to be amongst the top 10% of hospitals nationally for patient satisfaction

    • For the Friends and Family Tests, inpatient performance continues to be generally strong but there are key wards where satisfaction is poor. Our Emergency Departments are significantly challenged in terms of the volume of patients coming through the doors and this is evidenced by variable satisfaction which has fallen over the last quarter as activity has continued to rise. Satisfaction with outpatient and maternity services is also lower than nationally

    • Overall complaints reduced by 17% this year compared to last year • Responsiveness to complaints is a continuing challenge and,

    although we have improved performance over the year to end with 45% of complaints being responded to within our target of 25 working days, we still have much work to do to achieve our internal goal of 70%

    • PALS enquiries have risen by 9% compared to last year with the largest activity in the specialties where capacity has become a significant problem

    • Positive Enter and View visits by Southwark Healthwatch to the Denmark Hill ED

    • Work to improve patient experience for our two quality priority areas – outpatients and accessible information is progressing well

    Enc. 2.2

  • • In line with other Trusts in London and England, performance has declined over the last six months

    • Poor performance in March for King's – off target against trust nationally and Shelford Group

    • Feedback continues to focus on waiting times, staff attitude and aspects of the environment

    • Performance at PRUH ED has improved over Q4 but for DH there was a fall

    Friends and Family Test A&E – target to be in top 10% of trusts nationally natiobally

    Always friendly and staff always explained what is happening caring considerate and wonderful staff

    I really hated the staff treatment. They were impatient and extremely rude.

  • • Although King’s exceeded the national average score for March, to be amongst the best 10% of Trusts nationally, the percentage of patients recommending the trust would need to be 98% (excluding private patients)

    • Within the clinical divisions, Child Health scored 98% over the quarter with Neurosciences on 97% and Cardiac and Liver on 96%. Performance for TEAM and Renal was disappointing with Renal (84%) and TEAM (92%)

    • Top Shelford group Trust is Newcastle with a 98% recommend score • Excellent improvement for Orpington wards over Q4

    Friends and Family Test Inpatient – target to be in top 10% of trusts nationally

    I was always treated with kindness and understanding by all the nursing staff and also treated with respect and dignity on the ward by all the nursing staff as well. I would always recommend Byron Ward to anyone. My stay on this ward is always special and I will always remember my stay with a great fondness. May God Bless all the working staff, nurses and the doctors on Byron Ward. Thanking you all for getting me better I am so grateful.

    I arrived in time for my 2.45 appointment. I waited until 5.15pm for a x-ray. When seen I was told this was normal - so why was I not asked to arrive at 5pm.

    The service by staff is good but the waiting time for an appointment are ridiculous.

  • • The table provides the average rating over the four maternity FFT touchpoints – ante natal, labour and birth, post natal and post natal in the community

    • Trending below the London and national average scores • Highest satisfaction ratings received for care during labour and birth • Continuing low responses for post natal community • National combined recommend percentage was 96% over the quarter

    Friends and Family Test Maternity – target to be in top 10% of trusts nationally

    Amazing facilities, friendly welcoming staff including reception, special care by sonographer and assistants, felt very privileged to be a patient at the Harris Birthright Centre.

    I have felt really supported throughout the post-natal process for the first couple weeks after giving birth. For the birth itself I was was so impressed by the support from my midwife. She was amazing. No complaints at all - just so grateful, thank you! Antenatal support was also excellent.

    A bit poor, I understand that the midwives are busy, but frustrating when they say that they will sort something out and you never see them again.

    for patients in clinic about whether there are delays is rated very poorly • Work is underway to improve information about delays through the Trust’s Improving Outpatient Experience quality priority for this

    year – focus will be on ophthalmology on both sites and clinics in one of our specialist areas • Performance is better for caring aspects of the service including involving patients in their care, treating them with respect and dignity

    and kindness • Response rates continue to be an issue in some areas and the PRUH. Plans to introduce tablets / iPads are delayed due to technical

    issues with Wifi at the PRUH which need to be resolved • Introduction of texting for Friends and Family at the PRUH has also been delayed due to capacity issues within BIU

  • • Work on track to launch new appointment letters in June

    • Pre-assessment on track • Initial meetings have taken place with key staff and

    working group set up to develop accessible feedback tools to include speech and language, stroke and LD expertise

    • Initial phase will be to develop online survey capability with easy read and photos

    • Initial work underway to develop training for volunteers about learning disability and communication to enable supported feedback

    • Initial baseline data analysis completed identifying key areas for improvement at DH and PRUH

    • First clinics for improvement work identified and agreed with Divisional Manager as Ophthalmology at both DH and PRUH where satisfaction rates are very low

    • Second specialist area to be identified and agreed • Work to commence with staff groups June 2016

    Patient Experience Quality Priorities – progress to-date

    Accessible information: Improve access to information for patients, carers , service users and parents where those needs relate to a disability, impairment or sensory loss.

    Improving Outpatient Experience: Improving information about waiting times for patients in clinic

    10

    Enc. 2.2

  • KEY FINDINGS

    • Patient feedback on staff was generally positive – they are friendly and supportive.

    • Patients weren’t aware of services available out of the hospital, or had much confidence in using them. People told us they struggled to get an appointment with their GP and therefore used A&E instead.

    • Patients weren’t clear about where to go or what to do when first arriving in the department.

    • Patients found the waiting area uncomfortable and gloomy. • Patients weren’t given much information about how long

    they could expect to wait. • Staff generally felt well supported in their role, and were

    satisfied with the training they had received. • Staff said that space and capacity was an issue in the

    department, and care of mental health patients was mentioned as a challenge.

    • Staff told us that patients often spoke of issues getting an appointment with their GP.

    RECOMMENDATIONS

    1. The Trust improves clarity for patients on what to do and where to go upon arriving.

    2. The Trust improves the appearance of the waiting area. 3. The Trust improves triage and re-direction of patients. 4. The Trust improves how it communicates information about

  • Patient Complaints Q4 15/16

    The Trust received 206 complaints in Q4 compared to 219 in Q3; 110 (128) at DH and 97 (90) at the Bromley sites. The ratio of complaints received during the quarter to patient activity (per 1000 patient attendances) was 0.6 compared to 0.5 in Q3. Overall, the downward trend continues in complaints received with a total of 811 in 15/16 compared to 974 in 14/15 – a 17% reduction. In Q4, 215 potential complaints were resolved locally. Performance in responding to complaints improved with 50% closed in Q4 within 25 working days with an overall YTD 15/16 performance of 45%. Just over half of the complaints investigated were upheld.

    Inpatient complaints represents 61% of the overall total of complaints received in Q4 (127) which is an increase of 14 complaints from Q3 (113) – DH, 72 and Bromley sites, 55. Maternity - increased marginally to 15 from 8 in Q3; DH 11 and PRUH 4. Overall DH has received the most complaints about maternity care with an average 2 cases per month compared to 0.9 at the PRUH. Outpatients (including ED) – have significantly decreased in Q4 (79) from 111 in Q3 (37 DH, 42 Bromley). PRUH ED complaints notably reducing in Q4. 12

    Responding to complaints improved in the second half of 15/16 with 49% and 50% of complaints closing within 25 working days in Q3 and Q4. This fell short of our internal target but demonstrates an overall % improvement since October 15 which is ongoing. Activity by Division for Q4 demonstrates areas achieving the 70% target and those where improvement is still required. Continuous dialogue and support is given to the Divisions and early signs suggest YTD 15/16 response rate is 56%. Overall the response rate in 15/16 was 45% The trust’s 5-year Quality Strategy sets an aspirational target of responding to 95% of complaints within 25 working days.

  • Complaint themes

    53.5% (68) of inpatient complaints relate to clinical treatment (doctor led). Cardiology, General Medicine and Labour received the most complaints of this type. Concerns about patient care (nursing) represent 37% of the inpatient complaints (47) – of these 22% reflect concerns that care needs were not met or were felt inadequate. Most complaints of this type were made about a general medical ward (DH) or the Nightingale Birth Centre (DH).

    Significant decrease (29%) of outpatient complaints in Q4 – the reduction being at DH where complaints fell to 37 compared to 68 in Q3. We continue to look for opportunities to locally defuse outpatient enquiries which is reflected in these figures overall. Clinical treatment (doctor led) concerned 70% of the Bromley site outpatient complaints (29). They are varied in area and theme with 70% (20) relating to Surgery, ED, Ambulatory and Gynaecology.

  • Complaints - Divisional Activity

    Bromley sites: Overall, Surgery has a high level of complaints on the Bromley sites in 15/16 (85), 25% of the total number of complaints received in 15/16. However, related to patient activity, the ratio of complaints is low at 0.6 per 1000 patient attendances. Half of all Surgery complaints in 15/16 related to clinical treatment and 20% related to an admission/discharge. Medicine has the second largest level (67), 19% of the total complaints. Related to activity this is a ratio of 2 complaints per 1000 patient attendances. Approximately a third relate to clinical treatment and 19% relate to discharge. ED had their second lowest rate of complaints in Q4 (9) following 15 in Q3. Denmark Hill: Networked Services (Cardiovascular, Haematology and Neurosciences) have the highest profile of complaints in 15/16 (98) but a low ratio of 0.7 complaints per 1000 patient attendances. Surgery complaints were at their lowest level reported in Q4 (9). In 15/16 Surgery received 63 complaints compared to 81 in 14/15 (20% lower), and 104 in 13/14. Gynaecology/Child Health increase in Child Health complaints in Q4 (8) up from 4 in Q3. Liver (including HPB, Endoscopy) have maintained high levels of complaints in Q3 and Q4 (15, 16). Issues in the main concern clinical treatment, communication and admissions/discharges.

  • When investigation and responding to complaints, we continually identify areas of our service that we can improve on, which may also include individual performance and personal development. As part of our approach to resolving complaints, we invite patients, their families and/or advocates to meet with us, as listening first hand to experiences, enables us all to reflect and ensure changes are made when we have not got things right. During Q4 we have used complaints to contribute towards a range of general improvements across the organisation. Below is one case which has resulted in a number of actions being identified which have been completed or remain ongoing.

    Learning from complaints

    Elderly patient was admitted to King’s following a fall at home. She had vascular dementia, previous stroke, diabetes and a heart condition. The family were concerned that she was insufficiently monitored within the Emergency Department as she went on to experience a seizure. Once moved to a medical ward, the family remained concerned with the level of care the patient was receiving, both in terms of the timeliness of the clinical assessments and the nursing led care. The patient was moved to another medical ward where the family again found staff were not responsive to their mother’s care needs and felt that she was inadequately monitored. A delay in the patient receiving a sedative infusion caused distress. In response to the complaint, the Trust acknowledged firstly that the monitoring of the patient within the Emergency Department had been appropriate but staff had failed to communicate and share information with the family to alleviate their stress and worry. The Trust confirmed that the monitoring of the patient on the ward had also been appropriate, with several different specialty teams reviewing the patient through the day and night. It was accepted that sharing information with the family during these investigations had not been adequate. It was also acknowledged that in hindsight the ward nurses did not respond to the family’s concerns in a supportive way. The following are some key learning actions arising from the case: 1. Complaint was shared with teams involved in the patient’s care. 2. Specific feedback was given to individual nurses identified, with objectives for improving practice set and monitored for these

    staff. 3. Additional stocks to be ordered for any high dose medications being prescribed so that an appropriate ward stock level can be

    maintained. 4. Projects on medication administration and dignity and continence are being completed on the medical ward. 5. Senior nursing staff are leading on care at the bedside to demonstrate, develop and monitor best practice of the fundaments

    of care. 16

    Cancellation of elective surgery and increase in length of surgical waiting lists was significant this quarter with bed capacity limited for some groups such as Orthopaedics at Denmark Hill and infection control restrictions to admissions at Princess Royal. There are continuing patient issues relating to theatre availability for Orthopaedic patients requiring surgery on the Princess Royal site. Outpatient appointments were also rescheduled because of industrial action but the key theme of dissatisfaction for patients was their difficulty in communication, telephone accessibility, receiving adequate explanations and agreeing rescheduled dates. This was cited in 50% of the cases as the key issue.

    This specialty has now stabilised in the numbers of contacts on the Princess Royal site. At QMS there are site specific problems this quarter relating to the reconfiguration of outpatient administration support, appointment capacity and significant alteration to the infrastructure of Oxleas switchboard services. This has created high numbers of PALS contacts for simple appointment and clinical enquiries.

    An increase in PALS contacts at Princess Royal relates to dissatisfaction with clinical care. It is however also linked to increased waiting times in the department and clinical decision making when inpatient bed capacity is limited.

    Report To: Board of Directors Date of Meeting: 01 June 2016 By: Nick Moberly, Chief Executive Officer Presented By: Nick Moberly, Chief Executive Officer Subject: Chief Executive’s Board Report OVERVIEW As we move into the early part of the new FY, our focus has been threefold:

    • First, maintaining a tight grip on performance, in line with the trajectories that the Trust has proposed for the year. Clinically, performance remains generally strong. Operationally, we are performing in line with our proposed trajectories, but have significant improvements still to deliver as the year unfolds. Financially, Month 1 was behind plan owing to income weakness; and we need to maintain an intensive focus on firming up and delivering our £50m cost improvement programme for the year.

    • Secondly, starting to drive the longer transformation of our services. Under

    this broad heading, the last month has seen good progress in driving through our organisational restructure – described below. Very positively, our business case to launch a major programme of clinical transfo
