1 INTRODUCTION
NHS Lambeth Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) comprises 46 member GP Practices organised
into three localities.
The NHS Lambeth CCG Governing Body is responsible for ensuring that the CCG has appropriate
arrangements in place to exercise its functions effectively, efficiently and economically and in
accordance with the CCG Constitution and our principles of good governance. Membership of the
Governing Body is drawn from our Member Practices, appointed individuals with statutory roles and
nominees from our key Lambeth partners.
The Governing Body is supported by the Lambeth Clinical Network. The purpose of the Clinical
Network is to provide the CCG Board members with sound clinical advice on commissioning care
services, clinical pathways and best practice. The Clinical Network consists of care and clinical
“subject matter experts” from within Lambeth including GPs, practice managers, nurses, pharmacists,
opticians and social care colleagues.
This report sets out how NHS Lambeth CCG is performing against its agreed objectives under the
leadership of the NHS Lambeth Clinical Commissioning Governing Body. It is a tool for providing
assurance to the Governing Body that objectives are being delivered or, where performance is behind
plan, that mitigating actions are in place to address performance improvement.
The 2016/17 Business Plan sets out NHS Lambeth CCG’s corporate objectives. Later is this report,
NHS Lambeth CCG’s Programme Boards and Enabler Work streams report on delivery of their
2016/17 objectives. The Integrated Governance and Performance Report provides a consolidate
picture of delivery of NHS Lambeth CCG’s corporate objectives.

2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARIES
2.1 CCG ASSURANCE – four domains and six clinical priorities
2.1.1 CCG Assurance Framework 2016/17
For 2016/17, NHS England introduced a new Improvement and Assessment Framework for CCGs
(CCG IAF). This has replaced the 2015/16 CCG Assurance Framework. In the Government’s
Mandate to NHS England, this new framework takes an enhanced and more central place in the
overall arrangements for public accountability of the NHS.
The Five Year Forward View, NHS Planning Guidance and the Sustainability and Transformation
Plans (STPs) for each area are all driven by the pursuit of the “triple aim”: (i) improving the health and
wellbeing of the whole population; (ii) better quality for all patients, through care redesign; and (ii)
better value for taxpayers in a financially sustainable system. The new framework aligns key
objectives and priorities, including the way NHS England assesses and manages partnership working
with CCGs.
The new 2016/17 Assurance Framework covers health priority indicators located in four domains:
Domain 1: Better Health: this section looks at how the CCG is contributing towards
improving the health and wellbeing of its population;
Domain 2: Better Care: this principally focuses on care redesign, performance of
constitutional standards and outcomes, including priority clinical areas; Maternity, Dementia,
Cancer, Learning Disabilities, Diabetes and Mental Health.
Domain 3: Sustainability: this section looks at how the CCG is remaining in financial
balance, and is securing good value for patients and the public from the money it spends;
Domain 4: Leadership: this domain assesses the quality of the CCG’s leadership, the quality
of care plans, how the CCG works with its partners and the governance arrangements that
the CCG has in place to ensure that it acts with probity, for example in managing conflicts of
interest.
The diagram below summarises the framework:
3
The CCG Improvement and Assessment Framework includes a set of 57 indicators across 29 areas.
It is intended that the indicators will be reported quarterly. Not all indicators will be based on data
available each quarter: some indicators will be refreshed quarterly, some will use moving averages to
provide a more up-to-date view and some will only be refreshed annually. Baseline data for each of
the indicators will be available on NHS Lambeth’s website in September.
NHS England has a statutory duty to conduct an annual performance assessment of every CCG.
CCG’s will therefore receive a rating against the four domains, Better Health, Better Care,
Sustainability and Leadership. The rating for this section will be described as follows:
Outstanding
Good
Limited Assurance
Required Improvement
The six clinical priorities will have independent moderation and will be given one of the following ratings:
Top performing
Performing well
Needs improvement
Greatest need for improvement
Ratings will be published on the My NHS website.
https://www.nhs.uk/Service-Search/performance/search
Clinical Priorities 2016/17 baseline assessment
Baseline assessment ratings for 2016/17 have been formally published for all 6 Clinical Priority areas. Detailed information can be found on the My NHS website via the link above. NHS Lambeth CCG is performing well in four out of six of the clinical priorities with overall assessment rating details by Clinical Area below.
Clinical Priority 2016/17 Baseline Assessment
Dementia Top Performing
Diabetes Performing Well
Learning Disabilities Needs Improvement
Cancer Needs Improvement
Mental Health Performing Well
Maternity Performing Well
The CCG continues to ensure that the performance of each of these priorities is embedded in its reporting through the relevant Programme Boards, continuing to build on the areas where the CCG is performing well and making progress against plans where further work is required.

Guy’s & St Thomas’ Hospital (GSTT) – Month 6 – September 16/17 dashboard data commentary Please note that the majority of M6 data from GSTT has not yet been received due to the internal timelines for the publication of the Trust’s M2 Integrated Quality and Performance Report and therefore there is a reduced commentary. Patient Experience The Trust has continued to achieve internal targets in the percentage of patients recommending the Trust in the In Patient Friends and Family Test (IP FFT). The Trust is at 97%, which is higher than the London average (95%), in September. The Trust % of patients recommending the IP FFT is similar to performance in Q1 16/17 (97%). It should be noted that the response rate has dropped when compared to Q1 16/17 and remains below internal target of >33%, however higher than national average of 24.9%, with 25.8% reported in September. The percentage of patients recommending A&E services as measured through the A&E Friends and Family Test (A&E FFT) has not met the internal target of >88% during Q2 16/17 and is similar to performance in Q1 16/17. In September 84% of patients recommended A&E, which is the same as London average (84%). The response rate slightly decreased at the end of Q2 16/17 and is below the London average of 14.4%, with 13.7% reported in September 2016. The overall Q2 response rate for the A&E FFT is higher in Q2 16/17 compared to the previous quarter. Please note that Quarter 2 2016-17 Staff FFT data is not available on the NHSE website until the 24
th of November 2016.
Safety The Trust continues to achieve targets Safeguarding Children Level 2 and Level 3 training targets in Q2 16/17 with > 80% each month. In September 16/17 the Trust did not meet the target of 80% of staff trained in Level 2 Adult training, with only 73% compliance. The Trust explained that this is due to a change in the way the data is being reported. The Trust has committed to meeting th3e >80% target by the end of December. Effective and Well –Led There has been deterioration in the percentage of women booked before 12 weeks plus 6 days at GSTT in Quarter 2, with fewer women booked each month. In September 84.2% of women were booked within 12 weeks plus. Maternity C-section rates continue to be outside of <27% target during the Q2 16/17 with 35.9% reported in September. The number of births per midwife is in line with the Trust internal target of <28 during Q2 16/17, with 27 midwifes per birth reported in September.
The information provided in this section is a summary of discussions in the September CQRG meeting. This meeting is attended by senior Trust representatives, including the Medical and Nursing Directors, Clinical Commissioners and Directors of Quality from Lambeth and Southwark Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs). A progress update on the Fit Notes issue came to September meeting. The Trust noted that there had been a number of discussions with KCH colleagues about how to embed the correct ‘Fit Notes’ process at both trusts (in line with recent national guidance). Commissioners asked the Trust to produce a firm plan with clear milestones by the end of November and to provide assurance that the plan will be implemented by 1st April 2017. An update was provided on the Medchart Serious Incident Root Case Analysis (RCA) investigation, which has now been submitted to the Commissioners and it was noted that the Carenotes SI RCA will be submitted by 30
th September. The Trust updated that the work supporting the resolution of these issues is still
11
ongoing; these incidents were in large part responsible for triggering the wider review of clinical IT systems across the trust. There has also been an IT review by an external consultancy and their report will be presented to the Executive Directors and Non-Executive Directors within the next month. Trust reps noted that this is a clinical systems review that will look at all Trust IT systems. The CQRG requested that this be shared when available. Commissioners noted the poor community IT infrastructure support provided to the Trust by the CSU (relating to Carenotes), however it was noted that a plan is being put into place to try to resolve this. An update was provided on complaints. The Trust reported that the number of ‘open’ complaints have been steadily reducing and the ‘lessons learnt’ from complaints are being applied. There are plans to address learning outcomes across the Trust. Further information was requested by commissioners regarding the patient perspective of care. The main agenda item focussed on the quality of Safeguarding Services for Adults and Children. The Trust reported that Safeguarding Adults training compliance is currently at 73% and it is expected to be on target (>80%) by the end of December. In regards to the Prevent Training, Level 1 training compliance is 55.6% and Level 2 compliance 26.4%, with a trajectory intention to achieve 80% by April 2017. An increase in numbers of referrals (n=85) for Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) was noted. The recent CQC inspection indicated that the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (MCA) was not fully embedded within the organisation. The Trust has addressed the issue and as a result 3 additional Clinical Nurse Specialist posts have been created within the team. Specifically, in regards to patients refusing treatment, the Trust flagged that health care professionals should collectively review the care plan and strategies should be identified when dealing with these patients. A patient refusing treatment cannot be seen as a ‘permission to disengage’ with the patient. In regards to the Children Safeguarding, the Trust continues to demonstrate strong safeguarding governance arrangements; since January 2016 the Trust has had a quarterly joint Adults and Children Safeguarding Committee to lead on all safeguarding activities. Trust reps flagged a number of child safeguarding work streams such as FGM, Child Sexual Exploitation, Domestic Violence. It was also noted that there is a review to see how Maternity Services and A&E can work together better to support the delivery of care. There has been a significant increase in admissions of children requiring mental health care. A working group has been established to review the care and resources needed. Other key points to note from the meeting;
The Trust presented an update on Children Services IQPR and noted that overall there is an increase in the number of paediatric referrals YTD (in line with overall referrals).
In regards to RTT, there has been 17% growth YTD in both GP and tertiary referrals compared to the same period last year, which has driven poorer RTT performance.
The Q1 2016/17 CAS Report was shared prior to the meeting and the Group noted 2 outstanding CAS alerts, which have been escalated.
In terms of the RTT 52 week breaches, there has been a slightly increased amount of 52 week breaches related mainly to patient choice; on-going work to improve capacity is taking place.

Kings College Hospital (KCH) – Month 6 - September 16/17 CQRG & data commentary Patient Experience Overall there has been an increase in the number of complaints reported in Q2 when compared to the previous quarter, from 251 to 322 respectively across both sites. The data show that there were fewer complaints at Princess Royal University Hospital (PRUH) site (109) compared with Denmark Hill (DH) site (213) in Q2. At DH there were 213 complaints reported in 2 compared to 163 in Q1 16/17. The number of complaints reported each month during Q2 was above the internal target of 45, culminating in 55 complaints reported in September 2016. The number of complaints still open or not responded to within 25 working days at DH is currently at 53 cases, which is the highest number since beginning of the year. At PRUH the number of complaints reported also increased from 88 in Q1 to 109 complaints reported in Q2 16/17. However, the number of complaints reported each month during Q2 remained in target each month, with 40 complaints reported in September 2016 (target 45). The number of complaints still open or not responded to within 25 working days at PRUH is currently at 25 cases, up from 17 at the start of the quarter 2.The Trust continues to achieve internal targets in the % of patients recommending the Trust for the Inpatient (IP) Friends and Family Test (FFT) with monthly scores during Q2 of at least 92% across both sites in Q2 16/17. The percentage of patients recommending IP FFT is below London average (95%) at DH and in line with the London average at the PRUH in month 6; in September 93% at DH and 95% at the PRUH of patients would recommend IP services to their friends and family. The response rates in IP FFT at DH (11%) and at PRUH (11%) were below the internal Trust targets for each month in Q2, as well as the London average of 24.9% in September. In Q2 the Trust did not meet its internal target in the percentage of patients recommending A&E and also fell below the London average of 84% at both sites (78% DH and 82% PRUH) in September. However, the Trust % of patients recommending the A&E FFT in Q2 is higher when compared to Q1 16/17 (DH 74% and PRUH 80%). The Trust response rate to A&E FFT (DH 5.9% and PRUH 8.2%) is below the London average of 14.4% in September.
Safety No Never Events were reported at the DH and PRUH sites during Q2 16/17. Overall, there is an improvement on performance from Q1 16/17 when 2 Never Events were declared across the sites. Overall, there has been a decrease in the numbers of falls reported in quarter 2 across both sites. The number of falls resulting in moderate harm remains in line with internal targets across both sites. Trust wide there has been a decrease in the total number of moderate falls in Q2 16/17 (n=6) compared to 9 reported in the previous quarter. There have been 6 falls resulting in major harm in Q2 16/17 compared to 7 falls resulting in major harm in Q1 16/17. Across the Trust the number of all hospital acquired pressure ulcers has decreased in Q2 16/17 (n=73) compared to the previous quarter (n=83). In Q2 there were 54 cases reported on the DH site of which 6 were classified as Grade 3, which is a reduction from 68 cases reported in the previous quarter. There were 19 cases at the PRUH site and all were classified as Grade 2 with no Grade 3 reported. There is a noticeable difference in performance across sites, where performance at DH is consistently above the internal target of 10 for all pressure ulcers. There has been no Grade 4 pressure ulcers reported year to date. There was 1 MRSA case reported in September at DH (on Donne ward), therefore 3 MRSA cases have been attributed to the Trust year to-date and all have been at DH. No MRSA cases have been reported at PRUH. 36 cases of C-Difficile (CDI) were reported across both sites cumulatively YTD at the end of Q2. There were 9 new CDI cases reported in September, of which 8 were at DH and 1 at PRUH. 36 cases YTD is equal to the cumulative trajectory of 36 cases for September YTD position and in an improved situation when compared with the same time in 15/16 (n=47). The number of Red Shifts reported in Q2 has increased from 428 in Q1 to 486 in Q2 16/17. There is a difference in performance across both sites with more Red Shifts reported at DH (n=370) compared to the numbers reported at PRUH (116). There has been an improvement in the number of Deteriorating Patient Incidences across both sites in September (n=2) compared to the previous month (n=3). Safeguarding training levels remain below target. At DH the 80% target has not been met in any months during Q2 16/17 for Children and Adult training. At PRUH Level 3 for Children’s training was achieved every month in Q2 16/17. Targets for Adults and Children Safeguarding Level 2 have not been met in Q2 2016/17.
15
Effective and Well-led The Trust target of <27% for caesarean section rates was achieved at PRUH during Q2 16/17. PRUH is currently reporting performance of 24.6% in September 2016, which is an improvement compared to the last year at this time (25.4% in September 2015). DH performance is slightly above target at 27% although noting the target was achieved in July (n=25.8%) and August (n=25.1%). There has been an improvement in the percentage of women booked 12 weeks plus 6 days at PRUH in Quarter 2, with the target exceeded in September (93.5%). At DH the number of women booked did not meet the target in any of the months in Q2 16/17 similar to Q1 16/17 performance. There has been a slight increase in the number of outliers reported in Q2 across both sites (n=290) compared to previous quarter (n=281). There is a difference in performance across both sites with more outliers reported at PRUH (n=172) compared to the number reported at DH (n=117) during Q2. The vacancy level at both sites continues to remain above the 5-8% internal target with the highest vacancy rate at PRUH in September (14.7%) although noting this is an improved position since the start of the quarter (16.2%). The vacancy levels at DH remain similar in Q2 16/17 (in September 11.3%) compared to the previous quarter (in June 11.7%). Statutory and mandatory training performance has deteriorated slightly since the middle of the Q2 across both sites and is below 80% in September (DH and PRUH -74%). The information provided in this section is a summary of discussions in the September CQRG meeting. This The meeting is attended by senior Trust representatives, including the Medical and Nursing Directors, Clinical Commissioners and Directors of Quality from Lambeth, Southwark and Bromley Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs). Please note that the September CQRG was shortened due to the clash with the Trust’s ‘Safer, Faster Hospital’ week. It has therefore been agreed to proceed with an hour-long CQRG with a specific focus on the main agenda item only. A CQC Action Plan Progress review was the main agenda item for discussion at the September CQRG. The Trust noted that KPMG auditors had been invited in April 2016 to conduct an audit of Trust progress against its CQC Action Plan. The auditors noted that there was some lack of consistency across wards and across different hospital sites, with the organisation not able to demonstrate full adherence to CQC standards. The CQC Action Plan has been refreshed and aligned with the actions from both the KPMG audit to form a ‘consolidated’ action plan. It was noted that all actions are being addressed through Executive-led work programmes and ownership of the overall position will be through the CQC Delivery Board. The Trust is prioritising organisation and safety on the wards, with a ‘back to basics’ audit and work programme being rolled out across the Trust, in seven tranches or ‘cycles’, underpinned by ward accreditation. In terms of the Requirement Notices and Must Do’s, all are being addressed. ICU space issues are being addressed through the ICU new build (albeit this new ICU capacity won’t be fully opened until 2018); maternity births on William Gillatt have reduced by 65% and the flooding, syringe drivers and concealment trolley issues have been resolved. In terms of Safer Surgery, there are ongoing audits and related actions (Safer Surgery Project Plans) in place to improve completion of the Safer Surgery Checklists for every surgical patient. There has also been a business case approved for the action related to dietician access in Critical Care. Furthermore, it was noted that for Mental Capacity Act (MCA) and Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) training and assessment, Level 1 training is now very good and Level 2-5 performance now at 75%, with a 5% increase in training for doctors and dentists, which had been two of the worst performing staff groups.
16
Trust reps updated that the first ‘cycle’ of the Trust’s ‘Back to Basics’ nursing programme has now been completed. It was received relatively well within the wider nursing teams and is being delivered through weekly audits and related action plans. It covers 160 separate areas (including all wards and theatres). The Trust reported that around 66% of audits have been completed, which is seen as positive for cycle 1; the expectation is that this will improve through the remaining cycles. Challenges involve the complexity of organising the programme, lack of space and issues related to IT/ computers. However, progress is definitely being made. There have been a range of results from the cycle 1 audits completed – c.50% through to 100% compliance.
St Georges CQRG Commentary – September 2016 Heart Failure Service After an external review and audit it was proven that there was a high rate of readmissions linked to heart failure patients particularly those with co-morbidities. The proposal to provide integrated hospital services and specialist care in a dedicated area was agreed and the initial funding was via a CQUIN. Commissioners providing funding to open the HF unit. Since the unit opened the following reductions in Mortality and length of stay can be seen in the data below; Report for May – September 2016 incl (11 beds)
Inpatient mortality = 5.6% compared to 9.6% Nationally
30 day mortality post discharge = 0.5% (National average 5.4% in Cardiology, 6.8% in
medicine and 8.3% in other areas)
28 day readmission rate = 13% compared to 23% for St George’s in 2015/16
LOS on HFU 7 days, and on other wards 10.5 days
20% of patients are admitted directly via community via HF nurses, relieving A+E/AMU
pressures
An internal business case is being submitted to ensure service sustainability. Capacity is an
issue as currently there are only 11 beds and an average wait of 4-5 days for admissions to
the unit. It was noted that the reduced LOS enabled increased throughput and consequently
increased income for the service. On-going sustainability is a significant concern for the
service and the recent decision to apply a 10% headcount reduction as part of the wider
programme of efficiency has resulted in the LOS of 2 HCA posts in August 2016. It was stated
that the headcount reductions across the Trust would only apply to non-clinical staff and would
not apply to band 5s and below.
Commissioners advised St Georges that they should highlight the extremely positive results
that the service has achieved such as morbidity and length of stay reduction rates when it
comes to submitting their case for the unit. HCA reduction was queried and Commissioning
representatives requested assurance from the Trust that clinical staff in the service would not
be affected by the headcount reduction.
Trust Directors present at the meeting confirmed that there were to be no headcount reduction
against clinical posts.
Serious Incidents (SI) The review of the SI declaration process has been transferred into the trust quality improvement plan with feedback from the CQC review of the SI process to be fed into this. There are some elements of the plan that still have an amber or red risk rating such as
17
awaiting results for work from health and safety team, intranet page refresh, implementation of dashboard on Datix and backlog of incidents trajectory to be agreed. Duty of Candour training has been booked but currently amber as not complete yet.
The plan status is currently work in progress and this may need to be revisited if some of the actions are found to be not as effective as they should be. Commissioners feel that the issues during the trust processing SIs still exist and time to declaration is a concern. There needs clearer governance processes on decisions as to whether the incident is an SI. Trust advised that the recognition of what constitutes an SI is still problematic. The Trust reported that all are reported on Datix and all those that need declaring are filtered, there are some which are not so clear cut which might have a longer reporting period of up to 6 days whilst the status is determined Assurance is to be provided by the Trust that clinicians are able to use Datix and of the process and next steps when Datix identifies severe or permanent harm. Commissioners stressed the need to ensure that processes are completely embedded in the organisation.
Commissioners raised further concern regarding the time it has taken to resolve the SI issue which had been discussed and actions agreed a year ago, given the potential risks there was a need to ensure that this is resolved at pace. The Trust have advised that they were confident that they were compliant with national standards and had been advised as such by NHSI.
Cancer RCAs There is a meeting to be held around the contractual process for the performance notice relating to the Cancer 100 day RCAs on the 21st of October. RTT number and timescales currently unknown, next meeting to agree.
Infection Control
Naso Endoscopies Further review of the nasal endoscopy service following an audit to be reviewed at the next CQR in November.
Moorfields site visit There were concerns raised by Islington CCG during a site visit these included issues with estates, single sex wards and infection control issues in the ‘Dragon Centre’. Estates and Infection Control leads had undertaken another site visit in July, in the main this had been positive but there were some outstanding issues where recommendations had not been followed through , specifically 2 areas: Fire shutter, which the Fire Officer, has advised cannot be changed. New seating which has been ordered and the trust is awaiting delivery.
SLAM CQRG Commentary – September 2016 Safer Staffing for nursing workforce remains an issue and creates challenges for SLaM, there was a spike in breaches in April (22) resulting from vacancies and recruiting issues. The Trust is trying to make more effective use of E Rostering. There have been a number of unplanned absences and the Trust is working with NHSP (NHS Professionals) to improve support.
Patients in private beds utilisation of private beds had increased in the beginning of the year.
The Trust is managing this through bed management and is developing a quality dashboard for private providers. It is noted that the use of private beds presents a major financial risk. The Trust is aiming to get use down to near zero. The Trust has increased internal PICU capacity to try and mitigate against the financial risks. It is not clear why the need for private beds peaked in
18
February but this seems to be a common factor across London and the country. There has also been a gradual increase in length of stay and there are thought to be wide ranging factors driving this. There were no worrying incidents or complaints arising out of using the private sector. Friends & Family Test there has been a dip in FFT performance and this was reported to be related to change of contractor so devices to capture the data were not available for a while. Since the change there has been a large increase in the response rates that should be noted in future reporting.
Lessons Learned Report Themes of incidents and lessons learned were discussed. These
included:
How the Trust works with patients with ADHD on acute settings and the use of a new “Green Light Toolkit” across the wards.
Issues around managing complex care needs and support to carers in cases of suspected suicide
Garden units need to be secure
Health and safety issues related to windows – a full audit of all windows across the Trust is underway and where needed windows will be replaced. This work will be finished by October.
Issues around carer’s work
how staff members communicate with carers
what information can be shared
how to share risk information
how to support family members after an incident or complaint.
There will be a Learning Lessons Event in October about this aimed at drawing out human skills.
It was noted that there is variance between the number of Serious Incidents graded A – C and those reported in one of the SIs The Trust described the work around benchmarking expected / unexpected deaths and how the Trust reviews whether there were care issues in unexpected deaths. A Mortality Review Group has been established to do this work. Nutrition Strategy The Trust has a Nutrition Screening Group. It was noted that the MUST nutrition screening tool was as not fully appropriate to mental health. The mental health population group experience more obesity than the general population. SLaM has developed an initial nutrition screening tool that are more suited to the client group – it captures specific dietary needs including cultural requirements as well as clinical – also about does the person need support to eat or be reminded to eat. There is a second screen looking at healthy weight / fluid intake. Finally the Trust looks at medicine prescribing and its effect on weight / weight management. The two screens are merged into one for the community teams. The Trust has a healthy eating menu suitable for patients with diabetes and other conditions and separate menu for kosher and halal meals. There are specialist menus for children, for those with eating disorders and for older adults.
19
The Trust reported the results of audits that showed screening levels were good but care planning was poorer, in terms of the numbers of care plans created. – A cultural shift is needed so that staff see nutrition planning as part of the care process. Family and Carer’s Strategy Benchmark work has been completed across all the wards A Carer’s Survey has been completed. High levels of compliance reported - as shown by the CQUIN outcome The report shows that the main activity has been linked to the “Triangle of Care Principles” The Trust worked with carers in the Boroughs to develop more carer friendly communities. There are plans to work with young people to develop a bid for 18-25 year old carers “How can we support young carers to move into adulthood?” The Trust is working to improve the website for carers and involve them more in operational matters. Working with psychosis and art students to develop a film about caring – “driven by carers” The Trust is rolling out the “Think Family” approach across the 4 Boroughs. CQC Action Plan Update The Trust presented the Must Do Action Plan. Two actions are outstanding from the plan relating to ligature risk assessments and audits around recruitment and vacancy. Quality Improvement The Trust presented an overview of a Quality Improvement project being carried out with the Institute of Health Improvement. Work completed to date includes a Diagnostic Assessment Aims:
Improve the overall value of care
Engage with staff on quality improvement
Develop a single approach to Quality Improvement – using IHI
Use more data to improve practice
Standardise variations in care A Small Team has been set up to support improvement work
Developing tools
Choosing projects to start with
Will train a 100 staff in the programme to begin with
Looking at acute care pathway as a priority

3 CCG ASSURANCE
3.1 NHS Lambeth CCG Assurance 2016/17 Due to the accelerated timetable for completing the contracting and planning round for 2017-19, there was no formal Quarter 2 assurance meeting, although a teleconference took place on the 9 September 2016. The next formal assurance meeting will take place on the 27 January 2017. The meeting will review latest performance against the Improvement and Assessment Framework indicators and a deep dive into the Diabetes Clinical Priority area.
21
4 COMPONENTS OF THE CCG ASSURANCE FRAMEWORK
4.1 Leadership
4.1.1 Board Assurance Framework
The NHS Lambeth CCG Board Assurance Framework (BAF) is included along with a Heat Map showing the number of risks at each score for all risks recorded on Lambeth CCG’s Risk Register not just those scoring 12 or above. The BAF and supporting Risk Register are living documents, updated regularly. The BAF includes the key mitigating actions and tracks progress of risk scores over the previous 12 months.
o Two risks have been added to the BAF:
o 8B ‘Risk of possible failure to plan for future premises needs when Lower Marsh Lease ends 2017’
o 8D ‘Risk of possible failure to plan for future premises needs at Clapham Park’
o One risk has been re-graded on the BAF:
o 4NCBC ‘Risk that inadequate workforce capacity/skills will affect the delivery of the SEL Strategy in providing new models of
integrated, high quality care’. This risk has been downgraded following review of the SEL Strategy risk register.
o Three risks have been removed from the BAF:
o 5CPCC ‘Financial risk as Lambeth are not able to cross-charge other CCGs WIC due to insufficient patient level data on non-Lambeth
patients’. This has been removed as the target score has been achieved and all actions completed/resolved.
o 4RCBC ‘Risk that a lack of integrated information systems will affect the delivery of the SEL Strategy in providing new models of
integrated care’. This risk has been downgraded to a score of eight following review of the SEL Strategy risk register.
o 6N ‘Risk that failure to robustly identify all existing data structures in advance of changes to IT delivery partner could result in loss of
data for the CCG’. This has been downgraded to a score of eight, as the new provider has now taken over and has access to the
servers, reducing the risk of data loss.
22
There are currently 17 risks rated 12 or above.

4.4 Performance Dashboards
4.4.1 NHS England National Constitution Standards
The performance dashboard covers the National Constitution Standards as set out in the
national 2016/17 Assurance Framework. Lambeth CCG’s performance for each of these
measures for the financial year 2016/17 is set out in the table on page 33.

NHS Lambeth CCG National Performance Measures for 2016/17.
34
NHS Lambeth CCG Performance by Provider – Month 7 (October 2016)
35
4.4.2 RTT (Referral to Treatment Times for Lambeth Patients)
The CCG breached the incomplete target in October 85.1% compared to September at 85.7% against the 92% standard. Performance was primarily driven by the KCH position however GSTT activity was also under 92%. Lambeth performance at KCH was at 79.1% for the month.
GSTT Current Performance
GSTT failed to meet the RTT target in October. The Trust has not met the target since August 2016.
The increase in referrals, which is likely to affect GST incomplete performance throughout the rest of the year, remains an issue. Whilst, overall,
referrals in month 6 are down slightly from the previous month, the total volume of referrals is 8% higher than for the same period in 2015/16.
Increase in referrals mainly due to an increase in GP referrals for Lambeth, which is showing a 14% increase from the same month in 2015/16, and a 12% increase YTD compared with the same period in 2015/16.
Actions Taken
2016/17 demand and capacity planning to provide assurance that activity plans reflect backlog clearance trajectory requirements and that capacity is
in place to support delivery.
Planned Care Board established across the system to focus on demand management schemes and options. Workstreams identified and being established.
36
King’s Current Performance
Not meeting 92% standard. Current performance is 79.1%. Based on the current performance trajectory KCH will put the CCG into an
underperformance position for each month of 2016/17
The Trust has submitted an improvement trajectory to get to 88% (trust wide) by March 2017. The Trust has also submitted an over 18 week backlog
reduction trajectory. This highlights the continued issues with backlog reduction.
Actions Taken
The Trust continues to work to an agreed RTT action plan to improve performance and reduce backlog over the year.
Review of waiting list management by an external consultancy has identified operational and leadership issues for RTT which need to be addressed.
2016/17 demand and capacity planning to provide assurance that activity plans reflect backlog clearance trajectory requirements and that capacity is

4.4.3 Diagnostics (Lambeth Patients)
GSTT Current Performance
Did not meet the <1% standard as at September 2016, however performance was at 0.8% for October. Performance at a CCG level has been met since August 2016.
Audiology had seen an improvement from previous months. Going forward compliance was expected and no issues foreseen over the Christmas period.
Actions Taken
The new Cancer Centre at GSST is now open, providing additional MRI capacity.
King’s Current Performance
KCH has met the target since September 2016.
38
4.4.5 A & E Waiting Times
The national standard states that 95% of patients should be seen within four hours in an A&E department.
GSTT Current Performance
Currently not meeting the 95% standard. Performance for October was 86.7% which shows a reduction in performance from the September position (89.2%).
GSTT’s performance is driven by higher levels of acuity; impact of the A&E re-building programme; and overall capacity constraints.
GSTT has been developing and implementing a comprehensive ED action plan and have established and Urgent and Emergency Care Board that will be attended by Commissioners.
King’s Current Performance
Currently not meeting the 95% standard. Performance for October was 81.3% which shows a slight dip in performance from the September position which was 82%.
The Trust will not meet the national standard for the remainder of 2016/17.
39
KCH has produced an ED Recovery plan this covers: Out of hospital actions (focused on admission avoidance; proactive care; access to ambulatory and rapid access specialist services; early supported discharge; and enhanced community services). In hospital actions covering a 6 point plan for DH and 7 point plan for PRUH (reviewing and re-designing the urgent care pathway, non-elective end to end transformation programme); and bed capacity (increase and reconfigure bed capacity across PRUH, DH, and Orpington). The Trust recently revised downwards its performance projections for the remainder of the year and has shared this with its regulator NHSI and commissioners.
4.4.6 Cancer Waiting Times
Lambeth achieved 1 of 9 cancer targets in October 2016.
Cancer 2 week wait.
Trajectory 93% actual 92.3% for October. There is a particular issue at GSTT for patients referred for lower GI cancers. The Trust is working to improve its booking processes direct from the telephone triage to ensure the endoscopy can happen sooner. Performance is expected to improve over the coming months. Cancer 31 day subsequent treatment – drugs Trajectory 98% actual 97.7%. October’s performance relates to 1 breach at GSTT due to patient choice. There is a particular issue at GSTT for patients referred for lower GI cancers. A telephone triage clinic has been set up which allows patients to book directly into Endoscopy diagnostics. Whilst this change in the pathway speeds up the process of attending the diagnostic appointment it means the previous outpatient appointment does not occur to stop the 2 week wait clock resulting in breaches. The clock now stops when the diagnostic takes place. On occasion this is after 2 weeks.
40
The Trust is working to improve its booking processes direct from the telephone triage to ensure the endoscopy can happen sooner. Performance is expected to improve over the coming months. Cancer 2 weeks breast symptoms – This target was met for the first time in September 2016, achieving 94.7% against a target of 93%. Performance however dipped below the standard again in October achieving 86.5%.
62 day standard Current Performance
Actions Taken
Actions taken
Current performance against the 85% has not been met.
The standard was met in August and September, but performance deteriorated
in October to 69.8%
GSTT’s performance against this target remains challenging. Overall trust-wide
performance improvement is linked to reducing later referrals into the trust from
other providers, as well as maintaining internal performance of 85%.
A system wide recovery trajectory has been agreed at tripartite level, separate
trajectories from both GSTT and KCH outlining improvement in the amount of
patients referred to GSTT within 38 days have been produced. However with this
information GSTT is predicted to not meet the 85% target trust wide across
16/17 due to the impact of referrals from outside of SE London.
GSTT has committed to meet the target for internal patients for all months, but
has been below this target, the Trust now predict to meet internal performance in
Q4 . Actions to reduce late referrals from other providers will support a Trust
wide improvement for GSTT but are considered high risk.
SPG Cancer Improvement Plan has been developed through the 62 day cancer
waits group. This pulls together an agreed set of actions from all Trusts.
41
4.4.7 Ambulance Response Times
LAS Current Performance
The performance standard for Cat A (Red 1) was met in October and, with the
exception of August performance, has been met every month this financial
year. This is a notable improvement compared to performance during
2015/16.
The Performance standard for Cat A (Red 2) has been variable and the year
to date performance just below the 75% threshold at 74.6%.
4.4.8 Improved Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT)
The standard for people with depression referred for and accessing psychological therapy is 15% for 2016/17. The actual target number per quarter is 1656 (3.75%). This was exceeded in Q1 and in Q2. For the first month of Q3 – October the access was narrowly missed (548 against monthly target of 552). The standard for the proportion of people who complete therapy and move to recovery is 50%. Performance in this area for Q2 was 49.2%. For October the service achieved 46.1%. NHS Lambeth CCG has performed consistently well against the target for the proportion of Lambeth patients finishing a course of treatment receiving their first appointment within 6 weeks of referral. The target for Q2 in 2016/17 was exceeded with 95.52% achievement against the 75% target. Strong performance is also being maintained against the 95% target for the proportion of patients finishing a course of treatment receiving their first appointment within 18 weeks of referral. In Q2 for 2016/17 the service achieved 100%. For the first month of Q3 it was also 100%.
4.4.9 New Early Intervention In Psychosis 2 Week Standard
The NHS Guidance for the Implementation of the EIP Access and Waiting Time Standards defines clock stop as when:
An individual is accepted onto the caseload of an EIP service capable of providing a full package
of NICE concordant care, and;
Allocated to and engaged with an EIP care co-ordinator.
The SLaM EIP pathway interpreted the guidance to mean that individuals require a face to face assessment for suitability for EIP services, as well as a face to face contact with a care co-ordinator to evidence the beginning of engagement, within 14 days. However, it has become apparent that the requirement to have both a face to face assessment and a further follow up face to face appointment with an EI care coordinator to stop the clock is a higher bar than that set by the standard, as agreed by the London EIP Clinical Reference Group. This has impacted on the achievement of the EIP target.
42
Lambeth initially achieved the target in April (66%) but have missed it in May (33.33%) and June (16.67%). In Q2 they achieved 50%, 62.5%, and 85.7% for July, August and September respectively. For October they achieved 69.23%.
4.4.10 Dementia Diagnosis Rate
The Health and Social Care Centre (HSCIC) has now published data for Dementia Diagnosis Rate for
the year to November 2016.
Based on previously reported data NHS Lambeth CCG continues to perform highly in this area.
The graph shows published data for NHS Lambeth CCG’s GP practices, for the percentage of patients
for the CCG with a dementia diagnosis recorded against estimated prevalence. The rate would be
expected to fluctuate slightly month on month as patients join and leave GP practices.
From April 2017, NHS England is changing the way it calculates the dementia prevalence. It will use the
total number of people registered on a GP Practice list as the baseline for the population of that borough,
rather than using the ONS data as it currently does. As a result of this proposed change, the estimated
prevalence of the number of people with dementia living in Lambeth will increase by 257, from 1,534 in
October 2016 to 1,791 in April 2017. If there is no change in the number of people registered on their

The national target to achieve is 66.7%.
4.5 Quality Premium 2016/17
The Quality Premium (QP) scheme rewards CCGs for improvements in the quality of the services they commission. The scheme also incentivises CCGs to improve patient health outcomes and reduce inequalities in health outcomes and improve access to services.
Quality Premium 2016/17
The QP will be paid to CCGs in 2017/18 to reflect the quality of the health services commissioned by them in 2016/17. It will be based on measures that cover a combination of national and local priorities, alongside the requirement to fulfil the expectations of the Quality, Financial and NHS Constitutional Gateways.
National Measures There are four national measures and in total are worth 70% of the QP
Cancer diagnosed at an early stage (20% of quality premium) - To earn this portion of the
quality premium, the CCG will need to either:
- Demonstrate a 4 percentage point improvement in the proportion of cancers (specific
cancer sites, morphologies and behaviour) diagnosed at stages 1 and 2 in the 2016
calendar year compared to the 2015 calendar year or;
- Achieve greater than 60% of all cancers (specific cancer sites, morphologies and
behaviour*) diagnosed at stages 1 and 2 in the 2016 calendar year.
Cancer diagnosed at an early stage
Current Performance (IAF 122a)
54.9% (2014)
Ongoing work to support earlier diagnosis has included:
The implementation of the NICE 2WW referral forms
A cancer PLT focused on approaches to support early diagnosis and increasing patient understanding of an urgent referral for suspected cancer
The dissemination to GP practices of tools to support patient conversations regarding an urgent appointment for suspected cancer
GP Patient Survey overall experience of making a GP appointment (20% of quality premium) - To earn this portion of the QP, the CCG will need to demonstrate in the July 2017 publication, either:
- Achieve a level of 85% of respondents who said they had a good experience of making an
appointment, or;
- A 3 percentage point increase from July 2016 publication on the percentage of
respondents who said they had a good experience of making an appointment.
Latest published data in July 2016 shows performance at 84.7%.
44
E-Referrals increase in the proportion of GP referrals made by e-referral
(20% of quality premium) – To earn this portion of the QP, the CCG will need to,
either:
- Meet a level of 80% by March 2017 (March 2017 performance only) and
demonstrate a year on year increase in the percentage of referrals made
by e-referrals (or achieve 100% e-referrals), or;
- March 2017 performance to exceed March 2016 performance by 20
percentage points.

Quality Premium - Local Measures For 2016/17, the local element of the QP focuses on the Right Care programme and is worth 30% of the overall QP. NHS Lambeth CCG has selected the following three local measures for 2016/17 each worth 10%:
Mental health admissions to hospital: Rate per 100,000 population aged 18+
Based on a steady increasing trajectory from our baseline position we are targeting
a reduction of 5 emergency mental health admissions for 2016/17. This is in
addition to the reduction required to address increases relating to population
growth.
45
This figure represents a decrease of 1% of admissions in Quarter 1 2016/17,
followed by a reduction of 1.5%, 2% and 2.5% in subsequent months as the
benefits of our mental health programme are realised over the course of the year.
We are proposing an end of year only figure to allow for in year variations.
Respiratory: Emergency admission rate for children with asthma per 100,000
population aged 0–18 years
NHS Lambeth CCG is targeting a decrease of 5% of emergency admissions for
children with asthma which translates into a reduction of 11 children's admissions
during 2016/17. We are basing this target on the business case for our new asthma
service elements of which are already in place, others of which will come on-line
throughout the financial year.
The above data shows a decrease in emergency admissions (18.8%) from Quarter
1 to Quarter 2.
Trauma and injury: Injuries due to falls per 100,000 population ages 65+
NHS Lambeth has a large scale programme of work in progress in relation to falls
prevention underway in Lambeth. Based on expected trajectories towards this
target, we are targeting a reduction 1% of injuries across 2016/17.
Our targets recognise that performance will accelerate over time as increasing
numbers of patients access the service and continue to benefit from it year on year.
4.6 Quality Premium 2015/16 outcome The outcome of the 2015/16 Quality Premium assessment was shared with all CCGs on 30 December 2016. In order for a CCG to receive a financial award, the organisation had to achieve four of the specified constitutional standards and pass both assurance gateways; RTT, A&E 4 hour waits, cancer 2 week wait, LAS Ambulance Red 1 calls, Quality and Financial gateways. NHS Lambeth CCG met the assurance gateway

The CCG monitored its performance against the suite of indicators set out in the Quality Premium payment framework throughout 2015/16 and had forecasted the non-award payment outcome. The table below highlights the CCGs performance benchmarked against the 10 most demographically similar CCGs, ranked for Quality Premium achievement without adjustments.

4.7 Quality Alerts There were 54 quality alerts reported by Lambeth GPs and 114 by Southwark GPs in
Quarter 1 and 2 regarding Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust (GSTFT). In
addition, two incidents were reported.
Chart 1 Q1 and Q2 2016-17 Quality Alerts regarding GSTFT by Category
Source: QUIC (Lambeth CCG) and Southwark CCG Datix
Additionally there were 27 Quality Alerts reported by Lambeth GPs relating to KCH for Quarters 1 and 2, four for SLaM, three for St George’s Hospital, four related to GP’s, one regarding an out of area hospital, one regarding community pharmacy, one regarding the CCG and two regarding independent providers. One quality alert was made by KCH regarding clinical care at a Lambeth Practice. The majority of Quality Alerts related to clinical care, communication, referrals and discharge. Themes included the following: - No appointments received/booked - Referrals to service missed - Failure to follow up - Discharge letters/ summaries not received - Fax usage - Issues with issuing discharge medication The most quality alerts were received in relation to Emergency Services, District Nursing, Gynaecology and Trauma and Orthopaedics. Quality Alert Actions Key learning and actions identified by GSTFT and KCH in their Quarter 1 reports in relation to the themes are summarised below:
GSTFT and KCL Discharge Improvement Group have decided that the Electronic
Discharge Letter (EDL) will now be called Transfer of care, which will be written for
48
patients and carers. A copy of this letter will also be forwarded to the GP. The KCH
electronic discharge notification is in place.
GSTFT Cardiology have placed a more up to date referral form on Point-Of-Care
(DXS) and the GP zone. Information about where to send each referral and up to
date telephone numbers for most enquiries is now available.
GSTFT District Nursing - admin staff have been reminded to escalate queries
relating to referrals not seen, to the Duty Nurse or another senior person in the
team. The daily safety briefing now goes through all referrals received to ensure
they have been actioned. All staff have been reminded about their responsibilities
in following the referrals processes, to ensure that they are allocated.
GSTFT Trauma and Orthopaedics have recently revised their pathway into
Orthopaedics and other onward services. The new pathway will allow the service to
add patients to the waiting list for another service direct from referral/triage decision
which will minimise delays.
Fax usage – GSTFT Elective Assurance are working with the GP liaison team, the
digital team, the communications team and clinical services to ensure the website
and correspondence have been updated to reflect the service NHS.net email
addresses
KCH added guidance to the Trust Access Policy regarding consultant to consultant
referrals. The guidance is in-line with the requirements detailed in the NHS
standard contract for hospitals for onward referrals.
GSTFT Podiatry service have produced a new easier to use referral form and new
telephone management system.
GSTFT MCATs are changing the call centre number to manage call volume.
Patients are now given information in clinic on the expected time frame for
investigation feedback, where relevant and a contact telephone or clinician e-mail if
contact has not been made in the agreed time. In addition, the service have stated
that they will continue to ensure patients are aware of triage decisions if a referral
is not being accepted into the service they were referred to.
4.8 Infection Control
MRSA - There have been 0 cases of MRSA reported to date. C.Difficile – There have been 27 cases of C.Difficile reported to date against a target of 44.
49
4.9 Mixed Sex Accommodation
There have been four mixed sex accommodation breaches reported during the year so far, against a zero tolerance. All of these cases occurred in the first two quarters of 2016/17.

5.1.1 Programme’s Purpose
The Integrated Children and Young People and Maternity (CYPM) Programme is responsible for making and implementing decisions in relation to commissioned services for children, young people and maternity across Lambeth. The remit of the programme extends across both physical and mental health. As an integrated programme, the aim is to ensure that children and young people’s physical, psychological and social needs are addressed in a comprehensive, cohesive manner. Our children and families services are provided from pregnancy to 18 years old (up to 25 for young people with a disability). They cover a range of services provided both in hospital and in the community. Services are planned and bought through an integrated health and social care team, with the aim of ensuring:
Children have the best start in life
Children and young people are strong and have positive lifestyles and behaviours
Children and young people achieve their ambitions and do well at school Early intervention in children’s health and wellbeing is vital to help reduce the number of years of life lost by the people of Lambeth from treatable conditions. It also helps to improve the quality of life of people with one or more long-term conditions. The CYPM programme is made up of three overarching areas of work:
Children and adolescents mental health services (CAMHS)
Child health and early intervention services
Maternity Services
51
The programme Board maintains a strategic overview of the quality of services being delivered to children, young people and pregnant women in the Borough, holding providers to account where appropriate. Working in partnership with the Primary Care Development Board the CYPM Programme maximises the care of children and young people in primary care. Working in partnership with the Primary Care Development Board, Lambeth Early Action Partnership (LEAP) and the Children and Young People Health Programme, the CYPM Programme maximises the care of children and young people in primary care and the development of evidence based early intervention services that improve health and wellbeing outcomes.

Key challenges to date:
Completed CCG SEND self-assurance. Gaps identified that need progressing through an action plan
LBL budget cuts continue to impact on the CCG and health of CYP. PH budget cuts also mean a heavily reduced service for schools through PSHE and EI provision. Integrated commissioning approach essential to ensure good outcomes are achieved
CAMHS data is repeatedly received late. Outcomes data requested within SDIP and contract and is due end of Q3.
C-Section thresholds agreed for 16/17 GST and KCH contracts, however there is on-going issue of how to improve rate of natural births. This is being worked up through the joint L&S Maternity group and the CMB coms strategy
Transfer from RIO to Care Notes system has caused problems for GST re accuracy of data. This is being monitored but has impacted on accuracy of EYMDS reporting
Key risks 2016-17:
Shortage of BCG vaccination continues, only high risk babies to be vaccinated. This is being progressed by GST but remains an international issue, PHE continue to advise
Although there is good progress with waiting times to CAMHS EI service, it remains a risk until we have reached the 10wks target
We need to embed the Transforming Care Agenda with CAMHS to identify young people with LD at risk of becoming inpatient
Safeguarding continues to be a risk with increased numbers of SCR and low level IMR’s
Health Visiting review 1&2 continue to be low and are at risk in light of cuts to PH Grant. An improvement plan is in place with GST (reporting issues and accuracy of data due to Care Notes also having an impact)
CAMHS dedicated post is now vacant. Team workload is already high, therefore risk of deadlines not being met and wider picture of CAMHS transformation not being fulfilled.

5.2.1 Programme Purpose Work within Elective Care is aimed at collectively bringing together acute care clinicians to work closely with primary care to ensure seamless referral for testing, diagnosis and onward referral to appropriate specialist services. This will support the provision of equality across the borough for services regardless of geographical location or provider providing care. This work also supports the achievement of national targets (such as referral to treatment and cancer targets) as well as areas that are nationally mandated (such as the delivery of the e-referral service). We are supporting an increase in appropriate referrals into secondary care through the provision of tools, training and other forms of support to ensure that referrals, diagnostics and community based care is consistent across our whole geography. We are striving to ensure standardisation and reflection of best practice. Cancer work within 2016/17 will look at approaches to support the uptake of guidelines promoting the early diagnosis and treatment of cancer, the implementation of new pathways for rapid diagnosis for people with “vague symptoms” that may result from cancer or other serious illness and improved levels of screening e.g. bowel screening. Work within the Urgent Care work stream is focused on ensuring that patients are able to access the right care at the right time when medical care is required urgently. This includes commissioning services that provide an alternative to A&E such as the Integrated Urgent Care service (previously known as 111) and GP access hubs. Work also includes providing sufficient pressure surge management support to the urgent care system, particularly in winter but also and other times of pressure such as heatwaves or infection outbreaks, bank holidays and during industrial action.

SEL 111 Service update
The purpose of the following information is to provide information on SEL 111 performance
for September 2016.
111 KPIs 2016 (Unify Sit Rep Data)
Exception Report for December 2016
Key Performance indicators were met except for the following areas:
94.8% of calls were answered within 60 seconds at the end of the introductory message (target >95%)
47.5% of calls were warm transferred to an NHS 111 nurse advisor within 30 seconds where required (target 98%)
60.9% of patients were called back within 10 minutes by an NHS 111 nurse advisor (target 100%)
9.9% of calls were asked to attend an A&E department (target of <5%)
QR5 Call waiting time LAS narrowly missed this target by 0.02%. QR6 Life threatening referrals LAS have completed an audit to understand where the three minute target is exceeded; what the reasons are; and therefore inform what actions are required. A total of 35 calls in May 2016 breached the three minute target and all 35 calls were included in an audit to understand why there was a delay between the need for an ambulance being established and the Call Handler or Clinical Advisor selecting the send button on the system. Out of the 35 calls audited the following findings were observed:
8 Calls were due to Caller/Patient delay -These were calls taken by Clinical Advisor or Call Handler where the need for an ambulance was established but for a variety of reasons the delay was caller/patient related i.e.; Patient refusing the ambulance
11 Calls were due to Call Handler/Clinical Advisor delay whilst seeking advice regarding outcome. 10 were Call Handlers which may be attributed to lack of confidence. There was one call where a Clinician sought advice for a 22 year old with severe crushing chest pain.
12 Calls were due to Clinical Advisor seeking further clarification from caller/patient after establishing the need for an Ambulance.
59
4 Calls were related to a system failure i.e.; call had to be handed over manually or call cut off from caller.
Next Steps A further audit is currently taking place for calls that breached the three minute target during June and July. On completion of the three month audit the findings will be reviewed with recommendations which may include changes to current operations procedures.
Attend Accident & Emergency Department, last 13 months (Data taken from LAS’s weekly UNIFY2 submissions)
There has been a slight increase in Emergency Treatment Centre (ED and UCC) referrals during September 2016. QR12 Warm Transfers & QR13 Time taken for call back The commissioners have agreed a let for QR12 and QR13, in order to allow LAS to carry out a pilot to prioritise warm transfers and call backs according to clinical need.
Service Update for Impact on Urgent Care System
QR11 Attend Accident & Emergency Department, last 13 months

Programme Leads Liz Clegg (AD, Older People), Cllr Jackie Meldrum
IAF Indicators (Annex A) 104a, 105b, 105c, 106a, 106b, 127b
Programme Purpose The specific outcomes for this project are:
To support older people to remain independent and able to manage their health well with the right level of timely support and advice when they need it to remain at home
That fewer older people will be admitted to hospital or residential care reducing the number of beds required and shifting resources to community based care
To provide good quality care and achieve cost efficiencies by providing more integrated health and social care.
62
Key aims for 2016-17: BCF deliverables including reducing the number of delayed transfer
of care, reduction in number of people going into residential care, reduction in the number of emergency admissions and percentage of people remaining at home 90 days post reablement/rehabilitation
To ensure that all Previously Un-assessed Periods of Care (PUPOC) Continuing Healthcare claims are managed and resolved in line with the national deadline
Increase the pace of implementation of the new format of the new version of the Coordinate My Care (CMC) register
To maintain and increase the diagnosis of dementia against the estimated prevalence
To work together with Southwark, Lewisham and Croydon to agree a service redesign (proposed by SLaM) for the delivery of inpatient and specialist mental health services for older people.
To commission post diagnostic support for people with dementia
To support LBL with the engagement of alternative day opportunity offers for older people
Key Achievements Quarter 2 (October – November): BCF Q2 report 161/7 report being submitted 25 November – refer to BCF
dashboard for performance. Ongoing issues with data provision – refer to challenges section.
All of the Previously Un-assessed Periods of Care (PUPOC) Continuing Healthcare claims have been investigated locally with outcomes notified to claimants. NHS England informed that deadline has been and was ratified at call with NHSE in October. Action now completed
Data from October 2016 shows that 86.6% of the estimated prevalence of those with dementia in Lambeth have a diagnosis recorded on their GP’s Dementia QoF Register, this has increased slightly from the previous month. GP referral rates continue to be steady to the memory service.
The 4 CCG MHOA commissions have agreed bed numbers and configuration for acute care to separate out organic and functional units. Bed price not yet agreed.
Individual reassessments of day centre users continue. Expected to be completed by February 2017
Held a very successful older People’s Alliance Contract workshop with over 50 attendees from a wide section of stakeholders.
Nurses recruited to Buurtzorg test and learn site. Due to go live in early 2017
Older People
63
Key challenges to date:
Working across 4 boroughs with regard to the SLaM MHOA specialist care service redesign – each borough has slightly different demands and needs, and commonality and compromise must be agreed
Performance issues with social care providers. One home closed at the end of August. Of the remaining 9 homes 3 remain suspended due to quality issues, requiring intensive quality monitoring. Three home care agencies are currently high risk. Two are currently suspended. Market factors are having an impact on DTOC (see below)
BCF – unable to report reablement metric in Q1/Q2 due to data
issues
BCF – performance for delay transfers of care (DTOC) is below plan,
currently working via A&E Delivery Board on mitigation.
Key risks 2016-17:
A risk of delay with the SLaM service redesign if the model is not agreed – this would have a financial impact on each CCG
Social care provider issues – maintaining quality and impact on the rest of the system including increased DTOC
Lack of pace on implementation of new reablement model
Vacancy levels in adult community services and the impact of the
agency cap
Quality of community nursing and interface with primary care

5.2.4 Better Care Fund (BCF)
The Better Care Fund (BCF) was announced by the Government in the June 2013 spending round, to ensure a
transformation in integrated health and social care. The Better Care Fund (BCF) creates a local single pooled
budget to incentivise CCGs and local authorities to work more closely together around people, placing their well-
being as the focus of health and care services.
NHS Lambeth CCG and London Borough of Lambeth continue their commitment to develop integrated care and
broadening the scope of integrated commissioning.
In the 2015/16 BCF plan, Lambeth council and CCG collectively pooled £23.4million under a section 75
arrangement. The 2016/17 pooled BCF fund is £23.5million.
Performance against BCF metrics for 2016/17 are outlined in the table below and latest performance where
available.

5.2.5 Integrated Adults Programme: Long Term Conditions and Medicines Optimisation
Responsible Director Moira McGrath, Director of Integrated Commissioning (Older Adults)
Clinical Lead Dr John Balazs
Programme Leads Vanessa Burgess Assistant Director and Chief Pharmacist
IAF Indicators 103a, 103b, 105d, 107a, 107b, 128a
Programme Purpose The 15 million people in England with long term conditions have the greatest healthcare needs of the population (50% of all GP appointments and 70% of all bed days) and their treatment and care absorbs 70% of acute and primary care budgets in England. The impact of multi-morbidity is profound. People with several long-term conditions have markedly poorer quality of life, poorer clinical outcomes and longer hospital stays, and are the costliest group of patients that the NHS has to look after. The purpose of this work stream is to improve the quality and length of life of people, people with three or more long term conditions, and to promote the clinical and population behaviours which allow the right care to be delivered in the right setting. To ensure meaningful access to effective services, and to maximise the efficiency of those services, a well-coordinated and collaborative patient journey between physical, psychological and mental health components of pathways is required, as well as cross-cutting pathways where common co-morbidities exist and the interdependency of mental and long term physical health conditions is recognised. Medicines are a highly valued and effective intervention but medicines are not always taken as intended (30% to 50% of medicines) and medicines side effects are known to cause 5-8% of hospital admissions. Therefore, a key theme is to support patients in understanding and taking their medicines better. Primary care prescribing expenditure is growing nationally by 3% and hospital medicines expenditure on medicines by 15%, some of which are medicines commissioned by CCGs. A strong theme of the work is to deliver cost effective, value based prescribing, and support the CSU in managing CCG commissioned high cost drugs spend. Management of antimicrobial resistance is also a key theme with targeted use of appropriate antibiotics only when necessary being a key deliverable.
67
Key aims for 2016-17:
Design and implement an integrated and personalised approach to managing the physical and mental health of people with one or more long term condition underpinned including increasing use of Care and Support Plans. Integrate approaches from the NHS England best practice programmes (Right Care, Long Term Conditions).
Maximise the potential of community and primary care to support individuals with diabetes through development of our Integrated Model for Diabetes including review and commissioning of a sustainable intermediate care service.
Focus on prevention of diabetes through joint working with Lambeth Council and South London partners to implement the National Diabetes Prevention Programme in Lambeth.
Develop community services for people with Cardiovascular disease that successfully maintain individuals within outside of acute care including commissioning heart failure virtual clinics, reviews and optimisation for people with hypertension and re-commissioning of the Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Service.
Continue our work to prevent stroke in people with Atrial Fibrillation in line with the London Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation group and London Stroke Strategic Clinical Network.
Further develop systems and ways of working in the integrated respiratory service to ensure a comprehensive service that directs referrals effectively and provides easy access to the most appropriate care. Improve diagnosis and management of individuals with respiratory symptoms through improved access to and quality of spirometry.
Support improvements medicines review and adherence to enable self-care and the best health gain from medicines.
Ensure best value and patient outcomes from the primary care
Key Achievements Q3 (October – November):

69
Key challenges to date:
Implementing key findings of the review of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring
Key risks 2016-17:
Potential for lack of engagement by General Practice in Medicines Optimisation and Long Term Condition Virtual clinics Schemes via GP Delivery Framework
The primary care prescribing budget may not remain within budget for 16/17 due to the introduction of new drugs on the market, e.g. New Oral Anticoagulant medicines, NICE approved drugs, newer diabetes drugs and the impact of NICE Guideline 28 (NG 28).
There are significant and large potential projects requiring project and procurement resource –Ambulatory Blood pressure monitoring and the Community diabetes service. Resource and time constraints may lead to non-delivery of these projects

Programme Purpose The mental health programme covers adults of working age in Lambeth. It is supported by the Lambeth Living Well Collaborative (LLWC), which is the partnership platform aiming to apply co production practice to the commissioning and delivery of mental health care and support in the borough. The overall aim of the programme is to ensure that people with mental health problems obtain access to support as early (and so avoid crisis) and as close to home as possible. We are aiming to re model our high cost low volume investment pattern to one which supports a larger number of people at lower cost through the provision of holistic support delivered by an alliance of providers working together to deliver the programmes (and collaborative's) big 3 outcomes.

1. OBDs - These beds include Acute, Triage and PICU. 4. EIP - During September 7 people experiencing their first episode of psychosis waited for treatment with 6 people seen within 2 weeks, giving a total of 85.71%. 6. AMHPs - There were a total of 65 assessments for August. Of the 65 assessments 49 assessments lead to detention, 1 leading to informal admission, 5 not leading to admission, 11 S135 warrants obtained, 0 S135 warrants executed, 8 S136 used, 12 not assessed and 1 assessed yet no bed available. 8. DTOC - During September DToC is 1.8%. 9. LWN - There were a total of 418 introductions to the hub in September. 10. GP+ - There are currently 152 people on the GP+ 11/12. Talking Therapies - SLaM is only slightly below target for numbers entering treatment, yet they are achieving the recovery rate. 13. IPSA - This is the number of people who have been in either residential care or rehabilitation beds where the IPSA team have worked with them to move into the new service offer. 14. IPSA - The target is the estimated number of new people who would have entered the previous system (rehab or residential care), the actual shows how the new service has been effective at diverting 'new people' away from bed based provision.
76
Key aims for 2016-17:
Developing the Living Well Network to provide integrated multiagency support to individuals with mental health problems
Redesigning the services we commission from our local mental health provider (SLaM)
Implementing the Integrated Personal Support Alliance to deliver recovery focused personal care and support for people with complex needs
Key Achievements Quarter 3 (October – November):
Black Well Being Partnership – CCG resolved to join the BWBP (Oct). The BWBP is waiting on the outcome of its bid to GSTcharity for additional development funding (due Nov).
>400 introductions per month to LWN being sustained.
GP Plus scheme now supporting >160 people.
IPSA activity and financial plan on target.
Prototype focused on improving interface between LWN and CMHT commenced aimed at supporting asset based approach.
Proposed procurement approach to LWN discussed at GB seminar and informal cabinet – approvals to proceed being sought Jan 2017.
Early Intervention in Psychosis and Talking Therapy targets met
Acute pathway OBDs reducing for 3rd month in row – detailed work with SLaM on addressing high LOS; overall admissions have reduced.
Key challenges to date:
Delivery of EIP target remains challenging across all four SLaM boroughs. Part of the issue is the definition of first contact/assessment. This being worked on between the Trust and four CCGs.
OBD trajectory.
SLaM contract 17/19 negotiation.
Key risks 2016-17:
Procurement of next phase of LWN fails to attract a response from providers capable of delivering the system wide outcomes and savings we are seeking
SLaM Contract – planned OBD reduction is not delivered. .
IPSA Alliance fails to deliver transformation and savings as planned
Workforce culture change is slow to adapt to the need for co-productive/personalised approach
System interface – perverse incentives, behaviours not addressed by new rules
LA funding reductions impacts on delivery of social care and support outcomes.
Changes to housing benefit rules constrain development of supported living schemes.

Coordinate all local Transforming Care related monitoring and activity
Embed Care Treatment Review (CTR) process across Adult and Children’s
Develop Enablement Centre in Lambeth
Positive Behaviour Support Service – determine best funding option and agree implementation plan
Personalisation agenda
Primary Care
Key achievements Quarter 3 (October – November) The Transforming Care Caseworker chaired 3 Community CTRs
which have prevented hospital admissions, and 4 inpatient CTRS, of which 3 people were identified as ready for discharge and should be discharged within 6 months Launch event at Lambeth Walk GP Practice to pilot engagement approach to promote LD Health check
Key challenges to date:
The CCG has not developed its plans to expand personal health budgets, so that that people with learning disabilities outside of CHC criteria are included
NHSE Specialised Commissioning data have improved marginally but still an area of concern
At Risk of Admission Register
CTRs within 10 days of admission to an ATU, as diagnosis of LD or Autism not formerly diagnosed
Key risks 2016-17:
SEL TCP requirement is to discharge people into the community but
the inpatient population is remaining fairly static as we haven’t yet implemented alternative services to prevent people with LD/ASC being admitted – this continues to be a risk going forward
CCG Dowries – Lambeth CCG has to provide dowries for people in CCG commissioned places, who have been there for five years or more from 1 April ‘16
Unquantified risks resulting from patients transferring from Low/Medium beds (funded by NHSE) to locked rehab beds (funded by the CCG)
Risk of collating timely and accurate data to develop and maintain the At Risk of Admission Register across Children and Adults
Development of enablement centre is dependent on securing capital investment from Lambeth Council

5.5 Staying Healthy (Led by London Borough of Lambeth)
Responsible Director Dr Sarah Corlett, Interim Director of Public Health, Lambeth
TBC, Director of Integrated Commissioning (Public Health, Children & Young People, Adult Disabilities)
Clinical Lead Dr. Raj Mitra
Programme Lead London Borough Lambeth
Programme’s Purpose The Lambeth Staying Healthy Partnership Board (SHPB) is the lead partnership body reporting directly to the Health & Wellbeing Board on strategy, action, investment and progress to prevent ill health, promote health and wellbeing and reduce health inequalities of the Lambeth population. The Board is led jointly by Lambeth Council and Lambeth CCG with the Director of Public Health and a Staying Healthy Clinical lead acting as co-chairs. It has oversight of local delivery against the Public Health Outcomes Framework and the commissioning of health services where responsibility has transferred to local government. In addition, the SHPB has responsibilities, as delegated by the Health and Wellbeing Board, to advise and steer the JSNA process and assure JSNA products such as specific needs assessments and factsheets. The Board also has oversight for the development and approval of Patient Group Directions (PGDs) by having an agreed policy and process for PGD development and approval. The SHPB formally reports to the Lambeth Health and Wellbeing Board, and to the Lambeth Clinical Commissioning Group through the Integrated Governance Committee.

Redesign/recommissioning of substance misuse and homeless health services
Integrating specialist/commissioning teams
Redesign of HIV care and support pathways
Work with GP Federations to lead population health contracts
Refresh of the Health and Wellbeing Strategy
Contribute a health and wellbeing perspective in the development of the Lambeth Community Plan
Oversight to the JSNA process and sign off of relevant products
Key Achievements Quarter 3 (October – November):
Set a balanced budget and determined savings proposals
Worked with GSTT and Healthwatch to complete consultation on channel shift and changes to sexual health clinics
Public health specialist team now embedded in Lambeth local authority
Work with GP Federations on new model/oversight of primary care services across substance misuse and health improvement
Links made between Health and Wellbeing Strategy and Community Plan, particularly around tackling health inequalities
Commissioning intentions communicated to key partners
Implemented agreed changes to HIV Care and Support pathways and transitional group established
Three-year contract extension agreed with SLAM in respect of the Integrated Treatment Consortium
Agreement around Integrated Sexual Health Tariff London-wide
Excellent progress with regard to recommissioning and remodelling of adolescent sexual health/substance misuse services and Staying Healthy services
Health and Wellbeing Strategy refresh signed off by the Health and Wellbeing Board
Key challenges to date:
Financial position – impact of Government cuts and council need for savings to help balance budget, will affect outcomes detrimentally given scale of cuts
Establishing the specialist PH team within the council and filling vacancies that have been carried prior to and during the restructure with Southwark
Increasing levels of need and increasing population levels
London wide GUM negotiations and open access issues
Rising levels of STIs
Key risks 2016-17: Resource/time available to undertake the redesign and consultation work needed
to achieve a balanced budget in 17/18 and beyond
London not moving towards transformation at the same pace and ambition as Lambeth, leaving the potential for growth in use of out of borough clinics at the expense of those that have been redesigned locally
Austerity – cuts to advice services, cuts to social care, welfare benefit changes, increased homelessness, etc
Loss of Mayoral funding for offender/substance misuse services which Public Health joint funds
Loss of specialist Public Health capacity to work effectively across the local health economy

5.5.1 Programme Assurance Statement
Assurance Status/Risks RAG Rating
(Red/Amber/Green)
Is your programme delivering
as planned – is it on target?
Yes
What are the risks you have
identified to date and how are
you mitigating against these?
Risks have been identified and are being mitigated or managed as far as possible. The
risks include:
1. Financial – we have experienced a 10% cut to PH Grant during the period 2016/17 to
2019/20 and a programme of work is underway to determine how to deliver the reduction in
spend. The cut represents a loss of gross of over £5m. There is likely to be further pressure
on the PH budget linked to the need for council-wide savings to meet a £50m budgetary
shortfall. The loss of grant is likely to mean services are reduced and outcomes are
detrimentally affected. We are mitigating this by working strategically to remodel and
recommission key services and with a close eye on health inequalities.
2. Structural – the PH specialist team is returning to Lambeth as a stand-alone team but with
some funding reductions that mean staff posts will not be able to be filled and a restructure
is needed. The setting up of new systems and IT and the move back to Lambeth presents
some short term risks to service continuity as arrangements bed in.
3. External – continued/extended programme of welfare cuts likely to negatively impact on
housing, youth homelessness, income/poverty, mental well-being, etc. The impact of these
wider determinants of public health creates a risk to the success of the programme in
meeting intended outcomes.
4. Sexual health – continuing growth in need/demand for services, efforts to manage
costs/demand proving problematic (complicated by open access issues, market
development issues and differences in London-wide approach to issue).

5.5.2 Staying Healthy Dashboard
The Public Health Outcomes Framework (PHOF) was used to identify the national indicators relevant to each of the three main commissioning areas
(sexual health, substance misuse, health and wellbeing). Commissioners were also consulted to identify the local priorities. Where KPIs are annual,
local data will be used where possible and appropriate to provide quarterly updates. The Staying Healthy Board is to agree which other indicators
could help to demonstrate progress against the wider determinants of health that are specifically within the Board’s remit.

Programme’s Purpose This programme seeks to enable a transformation of Community based /out of hospital care where high quality, locally responsive and sustainable primary care is the building block for the future health and care system. Through this, Lambeth citizens can expect a primary care system that is proactive in its approach, accessible and responsive to local needs and coordinated around the individual. The programme aims to enable a general practice system that can collaborate successfully across the borough, with patients and citizens, and be a valued, well developed and attractive place to work. The programme will coordinate the key system enablers of Estates, workforce and digital technologies to facilitate this transformation.

Scope of business area This business area covers both business information support and information systems. This business is provided to
Lambeth CCG by South East CSU.
Objectives of business area
The overall aim of the IM&T enabler work stream is to ensure that good quality clinical information is accessible in an
integrated shared clinical record and to ensure that information systems are available to support the clinical business
needs of NHS Lambeth Clinical Commissioning Group. A robust IT infrastructure needs to be in place to enable this to
happen.
106
Key aims for 2016 – 17:
Ensure smooth transition to new GP IM&T Delivery Partner (NE London
CSU).
Ensure alignment of GP IM&T service delivered by the IM&T Delivery
Partner (NE London CSU) with the NHS England GP IT Operating
Framework, the CCG Practice Agreement and the GP Forward View.
Deploy available capital resources to support GP IT in a timely manner.
Review General Practice technology requirements, develop bids and
deploy resources to support innovation in Primary Care.
Develop existing digital resources (including clinical content
management system, SMS texting, arrival and calling-in boards and
national systems such as Electronic Prescription Service and NHS e-
Referrals) to work towards Paperless at the Point of Care in Lambeth by
2020.
Digital Roadmap
Work with the 5 other CCGs in the South East London (SEL) Digital
Footprint (Bexley, Bromley, Greenwich, Lewisham and Southwark) to
develop the SEL Digital Roadmap for submission alongside the SEL
Sustainability and Transformation Plan.
Work with relevant Lambeth Programmes and leads to deliver the SEL
Digital Roadmap Universal Capabilities:
- Professionals across care settings can access GP-held
information on GP-prescribed medications, patient allergies and
adverse reactions
- Clinicians in urgent and emergency care settings can access key
GP-held information for those patients previously identified by
GPs as most likely to present (in U&EC)
- Patients can access their GP record
- GPs can refer electronically to secondary care
- GPs receive timely electronic discharge summaries from
secondary care
Key achievements Quarter 3 (October – November):
Mobilisation of the new contract continues. The SE CSU IM&T
department was integrated into NE London CSU on 1st November
2016. Much of the transition work has now been completed, including a
full audit of IT equipment in General Practice. This will provide the CCG
with an Asset Register. Practice level Registers have also been
requested.
Quality of GP IM&T is judged against the NHS England GP IT Operating
Framework and associated documents and measured using the GP IT
Digital Maturity Assessment. Following publication of the 2016 data, an
Action Plan has been prepared to monitor improvements to the service.
2016/17 funding for the replacement of IM&T equipment in General
Practice has been confirmed by NHS England. Planning in underway
for deployment to practices. Bids have now been submitted for funding
for equipment replacement in 2017/18 and 2018/19.
The Estates and Technology Transformation Fund was massively over-
subscribed across London. 92 technology schemes were submitted;
NHS England only supported 26 of these to the next stage of due
diligence. Unfortunately, none of the Lambeth bids were successful.
Alternative funding sources are being sought to support the different
schemes.

Lambeth DataNet
The Lambeth DataNet Steering Group, with representation from the 3
stakeholder organisations – NHS Lambeth CCG, London Borough of
Lambeth Public Health Department and Kings College London
continues to oversee development of Lambeth DataNet.
Following some delay in data extraction by the IM&T department at
Guy’s & St. Thomas’s NHS Foundation Trust due to misunderstandings
about the structure of the data extract provided by EMIS, data has now
been loaded to the data warehouse. User Acceptance Testing is now
under way.
Corporate Information Management & Technology
Transfer of corporate IM&T to the new Delivery Partner is happening
in parallel to that for GP IT. Work is beginning on documenting data
files on the existing servers prior to moving them onto the new
servers of the CCG’s new Delivery Partner
IM&T Support to Programmes
The Digital Technology Group continues to meet, with a packed
agenda.
108
Key outstanding issues:
GP Information Management & Technology
New GP IT service: General Practice aspirations for their IM&T need
to be defined and incorporated into a plan and programme of work to
deliver effective and efficient technology.
Primary Care Digital Maturity: Improvement in Primary Care digital
maturity will be a long-term project. Development of consistent use
of systems such as e-Referral and GP2GP across all Practices will
take effort over a number of years.
Funding: Estates and Technology Transformation Fund bids were
not successful. This has a significant impact on transformation of
Primary Care through use of technology. Alternative funding sources
are being sought.
Digital Roadmap
Once the SEL Digital Roadmap has been submitted, work will need
to begin to set up the structures and implement the aspirations the
Roadmap contains.
Work by Lambeth Programmes on delivery of the Universal
Capabilities is under way. The Universal Capabilities are based
around NHS technologies which have proved difficult to implement.
This means that long-term delivery plans are required to ensure
milestones are met and the technologies are fully utilised.
Revision of NHS Lambeth CCG’s IM&T Strategy could not begin
until the Primary Care Digital Maturity Assessment and Local Digital
Roadmap were available.
Lambeth DataNet
User acceptance testing of the new data warehouse continues.
Issues are being fed back to the Guy’s & St. Thomas’ NHS
Foundation Trust IT Helpdesk. Whilst some high-level work has
been carried out to identify how Lambeth DataNet can support
innovation in Primary Care, further work is required.
Key risks going into 2016-17:
GP Information Management & Technology
Primary Care DMA: Failure to deliver to Primary Care the GP IT
service specified in the GP IT Operating Model 2016/18 could
undermine transformation in delivery of Primary Care services.
Fundings: Underfunding of the introduction of technology such as e-
consultation and mobile working undermines the ability of Primary
Care to deliver transformation in patient care.
Digital Roadmap
Risks associated with the Local Digital Roadmap are around
delivery of the Universal Capabilities, which involve transformation
for primary, secondary and social care. At this stage these risks
await quantification.

Key Achievements Quarter 3 (October – November):
Gracefield Gardens Estates and Technology Transformation Fund (ETTF) application successful
Lambeth One Public Estate expression of interest was successful. The CCG, GSTT, KCH, the Metropolitan Police and LAS, lead by LBL have been awarded £50k to develop a Service and Asset Delivery Plan to bid for up to £500k fund to pump prime estates schemes
Nine Elms Vauxhall practice infrastructure funding approved in principal by LB Lambeth from Section 106/Community Interest Levy Funding. This will be submitted, with the LB Wandsworth funding proposal to the NEV Strategy Board on 16 December.
Key challenges to date: Allocation of the Section 106 funds are utilised
NEV Business case successfully awarding Lambeth with funds to
develop the affected practices
Utilisation of Section 106 funds before they time expire
Engagement with other providers to develop co-location plans
Unsuccessful ETTF Application, plans for alternative funding
Securing a value for money rent at Lower Marsh or alternative
location
Key risks 2016-17: Nine Elms residents arrive in advance of accommodation being

The objectives of this business area are to ensure that managers and staff
across the CCG have access to up to date advice and support on all
matters relating to the recruitment, management and development of staff
within the CCG.
NHS Lambeth CCG’s Human Resources services are provided by South Commissioning Support Unit

112
Staff turnover
The overview of the last 12 months is inconsistent and increases and decreases each month with a peak in August 2016. Generally speaking the CCG has a higher turnover rate than the national average (which may be attributable to the London factor) although the position improved from April to June 2016 where the CCG has a lower rate than the national CCG average rate (the national CCG average turnover rate for July 2016 was 1.55%, this is the latest data that can be retrieved from Iview).
Starters - Rolling 12 Months (Headcount & FTE) There has been 3 starters in October 2016, and 23 starters in total through-out the preceding 12 months.
Leavers - Rolling 12 Months (Headcount & Fte) There has been two leavers in October 2016 and 12 leavers over the preceding 12 months. Each month has been fairly consistent with either none or 1 or 2 employee's leaving each month with a peak in August 2016.
113
There has been 12 leavers in total over the preceding 12 months. Each month has been fairly consistent with either none or 1 or 2 employee's leaving each month with a peak in August 2016.
Sickness absence figures are currently available as at 30th September 2016. The sickness absence percentage rate for Lambeth CCG at 30th September was 3.33% which shows a slight increase in absence over the previous 2 months. The target is 2.50%.

6.1 PALS and Complaints Quarter 2 report (latest available report)
6.1.1 New Complaints
There were seven new complaints in this quarter. This is the same number of new complaints received in the same quarter of 2015-2016. Of the new complaints received three were for the CCG to respond to and four were for other providers to provide a response to. Overall, so far in 2016/2017, there has been a 6% increase in complaints compared to 2015/2016.
6.1.2 New PALS There were ten new PALS in this quarter. This is equal to the figures for new PALS received in the same quarter of 2015-2016. Of the new PALS cases recorded, five were for the CCG to provide a response to and the other five were for other providers to action. On the whole, compared to the same period in 2015/2016, there has been neither an increase nor decrease in the number of PALS cases recorded in 2016/2017. Please note that the overall figure for PALS cases in this quarter also include MP related PALS cases.
115
6.1.3 Complaints per Quarter
The table below highlights the number of complaints, whether the CCG was required to respond and if the complaint originated from an MP.
6.1.4 Number of MP Cases
There were two MP PALS and MP complaint cases recorded between July to September 2016. There were no specific themes or trends of note. The MP’s in particular communicating in this quarter were: Helen Hayes, Sarah Newton, Kate Hoey and Councillor Jackie Meldrum
6.1.5 Number of Open Complaints and PALS cases
There are currently three cases that remain open – two PALS received on 2 and 5 September 2016 respectively as well as one complaint received on 29 September. The other eight PALS cases and six complaint cases received between July to September 2016 have all been dealt with and closed. Complaints Closed during Quarter There were nine complaints closed during Quarter Two. These are detailed in the table below. Where appropriate, or where the information has been provided, lessons learnt and the outcome are included in
the report.
116
There are no particular trends of note during this quarter. The joint highest number of complaints was split between Communication and Treatment/Care. The complaint subjects are further drilled down in to sub-subject. Each complaint could be categorised in several sub-subjects. For example if the main subject is Continuing Healthcare, the sub-subjects should be child related, assessment timescales, personal health budget and process. From this quarter complaints the main sub-subjects are:
Funding
GP
Provider
Access to Services
Appointments
Communication
Delayed/Late
Standard of Care
Trust/Hospital More details on the sub-subjects can be provided if required outside of this report.
Public Health Services Ombudsman (PHSO) Decisions
There are no complaints with the PHSO at present.

6.2 Serious Incidents
NHS England published a revised Serious Incident (SI) Framework in March 2015.
Serious Incidents are defined as:
Acts and/or omissions resulting in unexpected or avoidable death of one or more people;
includes suicide/self-inflicted death and homicide by a person in receipt of mental health
care within the recent past;
Unexpected or avoidable injury to one or more people that has resulted in serious harm;
Unexpected or avoidable injury to one or more people that requires further treatment by a
healthcare professional in order to prevent the death of the service user or serious harm;
Actual or alleged abuse where healthcare did not take appropriate action/intervention to
safeguard against such abuse occurring or where abuse occurred during the provision of
NHS-funded care.
A Never Event
An incident (or series of incidents) that prevents, or threatens to prevent, an
organisation’s ability to continue to deliver an acceptable quality of healthcare services,
including (but not limited to) failures in the security, integrity, accuracy or availability of
information; Property damage; Security breach/concern; Incidents in population-wide
healthcare activities like screening and immunisation programmes; Inappropriate
enforcement/care under the Mental Health Act (1983) and the Mental Capacity Act (2005)
including Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (MCA DOLS); Systematic failure to provide an
acceptable standard of safe care or Activation of Major Incident Plan
Major loss of confidence in the service, including prolonged adverse media coverage or
public concern about the quality of healthcare or an organisation.
Incidents Requiring Investigation
In Quarter 2 2016/17 a total of 47 incidents were reported to the CCG via STEIS.
It is possible that SIs reported during this period may be de-escalated at a later date if found not
to meet the criteria following further investigation.
Forty four incidents required an investigation, as noted by provider in the following table. Two
SIs were de-escalated as on further investigation, they were not found to meet the SI criteria.
One further SI is being considered for de-escalation.

KCH 0 1 1
SLaM 3 6 6 NOTE: GSTFT = Guy’s and St Thomas’s NHS Foundation Trust; KCH = King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust; SLaM = South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust; PRUH = Princess Royal University Hospital
GSTFT reported serious incident numbers are larger than KCH and SLaM as they include all
incidents. KCH SIs are only for Lambeth residents. Of the 15 incidents reported by SLaM, one
concerns a non-Lambeth patient receiving services in Lambeth where NHS Lambeth CCG
retains oversight of the SI and two concern Lambeth patients receiving services in a
neighbouring CCGs, who retains oversight of the SI.
118
Table 2: Serious Incident categories by Provider for SI’s requiring investigation, Quarter 2 2016/17
Of the incidents reported by GSTFT, all 27 required investigation.
The Serious Incident Framework requires that serious incident investigation reports are submitted to the
CCG within 60 working days of the incident reported on STEIS. Overall, 58% of reports from GSTFT and
14% from SLaM due for submission within the quarter were submitted on time.
The Serious Incident Framework allows the CCG twenty calendar days to evaluate a submitted serious incident investigation report. NHS Lambeth CCG evaluated 41.4% of submitted SI reports within the stated timeframe.
6.3 Never Events
NHS England published a revised Never Events Policy and Framework along with the revised Serious
Incident Framework in March 2015.
The definition of a Never Event has also revised:
They are wholly preventable, where guidance or safety recommendations that provide strong
systemic protective barriers are available at a national level, and should have been implemented
by all healthcare providers
Each type has potential to cause serious patient harm or death (but may not).
Evidence that never event type has occurred in the past and risk of recurrence remains.
Occurrence of the Never Event is easily recognised and clearly defined.
There were three never events reported to the CCG via STEIS in Quarter 2 by GSTFT. These included one wrong site surgery and two retained foreign objects post procedure. A robust action plan is in place in the Trust regarding the management of never events and is monitored via CQRG. All serious incident issues are followed up at on-going provider Serious Incident Monitoring meetings for each provider, this includes reviewing the progress of overdue investigation reports. These meetings are chaired by the CCG Clinical Quality Lead. Serious incidents are closed by the CCG through the Serious Incident Review Group, which is a sub-committee of the Integrated Governance Committee.

6.4 Freedom of Information (FOI) The number of requests received by the CCG is similar to the number of requests received by other CCGs to which South East CSU provides a Freedom of Information (FOI) service, although at the higher end. The table below shows the number of requests received by month and by quarter for the financial year 2016/17. It also shows the number of requests received in 2015/16 for comparison. There has been a slight decrease in the total number of requests received for the year to date when compared to the same point in 2015/16. Figures for Quarter 3 are correct as at 24/11/2016.
Performance Indicators Targets which are given within the Freedom of Information Act: The FOIA states that applicants should be given a response within 20 working days. Good practice guidance suggests that at least an 85% response rate should be achieved. The table below shows the CCG’s performance for Quarter 3 so far. Figures for 2015/16 have been provided for comparison.
120
The CCG has a 100% response compliance rate for Quarter 3 to date. This is an excellent achievement and far exceeds the current good practice guidance suggested by the ICO. The CCG’s overall compliance rate for the year to date is 97%. South East CSU’s FOI Team continues to work hard with the CCG’s staff to ensure the number of occasions which the CCG are unable to respond within the 20 workings days is kept to a minimum.
