STAFF SURVEY RESULTS AND ACTION PLAN

Report to the Trust Board on the 2013 NHS Staff Survey

May 2014

Introduction

This paper summarises the key findings for Moorfields in the 2013 national staff survey, andthe action plan being implemented as a result.

The NHS Staff Survey offers us the opportunity to understand the views of our staff and theirexperiences throughout their employment with us. Following the survey process the results,which draw on four of the seven pledges within the NHS Constitution, are analysed and arepublished nationally against a defined benchmark group. Our benchmark group includesabout 20 specialist acute Trusts.

The questions are grouped into 28 key findings. The scores for some are straightpercentages, for example the percentage of respondents who witnessed incidents. Thescores for others are composites, expressed as a score out of 5, such as staff jobsatisfaction.

The results of the survey are published both in summary form, and in full. The summaryreport is attached, and shows our results as a whole Trust, benchmarked against our group,and how our results have changed from last year. The full report is available, and givesmore detailed results.

This year we surveyed all our staff, not just a sample. 30% of staff responded, a total of 499individuals. The response rate was lower than last year when 44% responded, and lowerthan the average for acute specialist Trusts. This is a particular disappointment, given thework undertaken to encourage staff to respond, including publicising the work we did as aresult of the previous survey, and offering a weekly prize draw for respondents.

Surveying all staff has given us the opportunity to see results by department or directorate,provided a sufficient number of responses were received to ensure anonymity. Many of ourdepartments are very small, and so this breakdown has not been possible for all. Scoresavailable by department are contained in the full report.

A single page summary showing directorate and departmental scores is also attached. TheRAG rating shows the distance from the specialist acute trust benchmark scores, with greenbeing above average, amber being close to the average, and red below average. These arevery crude indicators and the statistical significance is questionable where the variances aresmall. Furthermore, simply because an indicator is green because it is better than theaverage, this does not necessarily mean that it does not require attention. For example, weare well above the average for staff reporting good communication between staff and seniormanagers, but the average is only 34% and our score of 41% is nothing to be proud of. Thissummary simply provides a visual starting point, showing where we might choose to askfollow up questions and focus our attention.

Percentage scores are rounded to the nearest 1%. This means that scores of less than 0.5%are displayed as 0%. In order to preserve anonymity of individual staff, a score is replacedwith a dash if the staff group in question contributed fewer than 11 responses to that score.

Where we are doing well

Overall we have some very positive messages arising out of the staff survey, demonstratingthat our people take pride in the care they deliver, and recommend the trust as a place towork and receive treatment.

The five areas where we are doing best are:

Staff feel satisfied with the quality of work and patient care they are able to deliver Staff agree that their role makes a difference to patients Staff feel motivated and enthusiastic about their work The overall work pressure felt by staff is lower than the national average; The appraisals our managers conduct are well structured

The area in which we have improved the most is the coverage of appraisals, although weare still short of the benchmark average.

With all of these positive messages our level of staff engagement is higher than average,and rank fourth best of acute specialist trusts as a place recommended by staff to work orreceive treatment..

Where we need to improve

There are a number of areas in which we need to do some more detailed work. Somerepeat the themes from previous years and include:

The proportion of staff feeling bullied, harassed or abused by other staff remainshigher than the benchmark group

The number of staff feeling bullied, harassed or abused by patients or service usersalso remains higher than the benchmark group

A high proportion of staff feel they have been discriminated against at work Fewer staff have received equality and diversity training than in our benchmark group Staff feel we do not provide equal opportunities for career progression or promotion Staff do not always report errors, incidents or near misses that they witness.

Actions to secure improvement

A range of actions have been developed in response to the survey results. A number ofthese actions are trust-wide, to address issues shared across the board. Others have beendepartment focused. The content of these plans has been informed by listening andengaging with staff to understand the concerns in more depth, focusing in particular on areashighlighted by the department results.

The departmental actions can be shared in more detail within the private board meeting, ifrequired.

TRUST WIDE ACTIONS

The Moorfields Way

Our major staff engagement project ‘The Moorfields Way - Developing a Culture of Courageand Ownership’ is well under way. A short slide presentation summarising the work isattached.

The project combines work on a range of fronts. A number of these emerged out of thefocus groups we conducted across the organisation following the 2012 staff survey, andlinked closely with the principles behind the Francis Report recommendations. Morerecently, links were made with the emerging corporate priority focusing on transforming theway in which we deliver our services and our patients’ experience.

The areas of work this project either contributes to or directly tackles include:

increasing staff engagement through increasingly visible leadership giving managers greater confidence to manage difficult issues including bullying refreshing our statement of values, expressing them in a simple way that is

accessible and owned at every level of the organisation setting and maintaining standards of behaviour based on these simple values, and

holding each other to account finding creative ways to make it easier for staff to speak out if they have concerns,

including the creation of a team of staff volunteer Contact Officers encouraging individuals to report incidents, errors and near misses

A steering group has been formed, a series of events to involve staff and patients has beendesigned, and a wide range of individuals have been identified to act as ambassadors andchampions for change.

Listening events will take place through June, and we are taking advantage of the clinicalgovernance half days in June to maximise the involvement of clinical staff. We expect to belaunching our refreshed values and behaviours, and building them into everything we do,from September onwards.

Contact Officers

Our staff members are the Trust’s eyes and ears, and are the people who know exactly whatis happening in every corner of the organisation. They are also, often, best placed tosupport each other in raising concerns when things go wrong. A new Contact Officerscheme has been established to support staff who have concerns but are not sure where toturn, or for whatever reason are reluctant to raise it with anyone in authority.

Seven volunteer members of staff have been trained as Contact Officers, together with asupervisor. These are the successors to the Trust’s Bullying and Harassment Advisers, withan extended remit. They have been trained in the basics of non-directive counselling, andwill provide support and sign-posting to staff members who have concerns but are not sure

where to take them. Contact Officers will provide support on a confidential basis, but willadvise the Trust on themes that emerge, so that appropriate action can be taken.

They will listen to any concerns staff have, including those about bullying or harassment,patient care, discrimination, lack of development, errors or near misses, and the aim is thatby providing a safe, less intimidating route to raise concerns, staff will be more confident todo so.

Contact Officers will not act as a formal counsellor or as a staff representative – we haveexternal counsellors and trade union representatives to do that – but they will act as aconfidential sounding board and signpost to the various sources of help that are available.

The scheme was launched on 20 May 2014 with a stand in the staff dining room at CityRoad. Visits to other sites are planned, and posters and leaflets will be circulated across allTrust sites. The first approach to a Contact Officer has already been made.

Staff Friends and Family Test

The introduction of the Friends and Family test for staff, although quite a simple measure,will allow us to track progress on a quarterly basis. The test asks staff to say how likely theyare to recommend the Trust as a place to work and receive treatment.

We have piloted the use of Survey Monkey for this test, and the short questionnaires will becirculated to all staff in June 2014, and quarterly thereafter. Hard copy questionnaires will beavailable for staff members who would prefer this to an electronic version.

Departmental results will be available for our larger departments, allowing us to trackimprovements in areas where we have focused our efforts.

Improvements to incident reporting

The roll out of the Trust’s upgraded electronic incident reporting system has beencompleted, with training for staff and managers in the use of the new system. Electronicreporting has been piloted in several key areas and has been well received and the numberof incidents reported for this year to date is already greater than previous years.

The risk team has worked hard to raise awareness of the importance of incident reportingand train staff during the roll out of the e-reporting system. To date, 59% (1199) of all staffhave been trained in the use of e-reporting.

As well as making the process of reporting incidents easier and more efficient, it allows moredetailed recording of data, people involved and, very importantly, facilitates both theacknowledgement of receipt of the report and feedback to the member of staff after theincident has been investigated. Feedback – the sense that something has happened as aresult - has been shown in many other Trusts to be a key factor in encouraging staff toreport.

Local actions within departments

A wide range of actions have been developed and implemented. Examples are as follows:

Department 1 Local team meetings involving HR, trade union representatives and staff to identify

what experiences lay behind the scores, and what action needs to be taken. Staff suggestion/comment box for staff to provide comments anonymously Introduction of additional supervisory/managerial posts to spread management

responsibility and reduce spans of control

Department 2 Meeting with supervisory team to raise awareness of concerns and pinpoint areas for

action. Follow-up planned within next clinical governance half-day. Broadened the criteria for a supervisory post to give greater opportunity for career

progression, and an internal appointment made. Recognition that high levels of vacancies make staff release for team development

difficult. A number of new appointments have been made, and the department’s remaining

vacancies will be included in the current major nurse recruitment campaign, with theaim of recruiting extra to anticipate future vacancies, and to provide some capacityfor release.

Walk-around by Chief Executive and Director of Nursing to meet and talk to staff. Safety walk-about planned involving the risk team, patient experience manager,

security manager and the head of clinical governance, to allow staff to raise safetyissues for resolution

Transformation work to include developing the capacity for team development.

Department 3 Several team meetings to discuss findings and reassure staff of the zero tolerance

approach. Highly visible management as a routine across the whole department. Internal, anonymous survey of staff perceptions to gain greater understanding and

gauge improvements.

Department 4 Recognition that the survey was undertaken at a time of unprecedented change,

during which staff felt hard-pressed and unsupported. Since the time of the survey, resources within the department have been increased,

and there have been significant changes to the management structure. Whole team awayday.

Next steps

Progress will be monitored and reported quarterly to TMB and the Trust Board within the HRand Workforce Report.

1. Introduction to this report

This report presents the findings of the 2013 national NHS staff survey conducted in MoorfieldsEye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

In section 2 of this report, we present an overall indicator of staff engagement. Full details of howthis indicator was created can be found in the document Making sense of your staff surveydata, which can be downloaded from www.nhsstaffsurveys.com.

In sections 3 and 4 of this report, the findings of the questionnaire have been summarised andpresented in the form of 28 Key Findings.

These sections of the report have been structured around 4 of the seven pledges to staff in theNHS Constitution which was published in March 2013(http://www.nhs.uk/choiceintheNHS/Rightsandpledges/NHSConstitution) plus two additionalthemes:

• Staff Pledge 1: To provide all staff with clear roles and responsibilities and rewarding jobs forteams and individuals that make a difference to patients, their families and carers andcommunities.

• Staff Pledge 2: To provide all staff with personal development, access to appropriateeducation and training for their jobs, and line management support to enable them to fulfiltheir potential.

• Staff Pledge 3: To provide support and opportunities for staff to maintain their health,well-being and safety.

• Staff Pledge 4: To engage staff in decisions that affect them and the services they provide,individually, through representative organisations and through local partnership workingarrangements. All staff will be empowered to put forward ways to deliver better and saferservices for patients and their families.

• Additional theme: Staff satisfaction

• Additional theme: Equality and diversity

Please note that the NHS pledges were amended in 2013, however the report has beenstructured around 4 of the pledges which have been maintained since 2009. For moreinformation regarding this please see the “Making Sense of Your Staff Survey Data” document.

As in previous years, there are two types of Key Finding:

- percentage scores, i.e. percentage of staff giving a particular response to one, or aseries of, survey questions

- scale summary scores, calculated by converting staff responses to particularquestions into scores. For each of these scale summary scores, the minimum scoreis always 1 and the maximum score is 5

A longer and more detailed report of the 2013 survey results for Moorfields Eye Hospital NHSFoundation Trust can be downloaded from: www.nhsstaffsurveys.com. This report providesdetailed breakdowns of the Key Finding scores by directorate, occupational groups anddemographic groups, and details of each question included in the core questionnaire.

Your Organisation

The scores presented below are un-weighted question level scores for questions Q12a - 12dand the weighted score for Key Finding 24. The percentages for Q12a – Q12d are created bycombining the responses for those who “Agree” and “Strongly Agree” compared to the totalnumber of staff that responded to the question.

The Q12d score is related to CQUIN payments for Acute trusts participating in the National NHSStaff Survey. 2013/2014 guidance on CQUIN payments can be found via the following linkhttps://www.supply2health.nhs.uk/eContracts/Documents/cquin-guidance.pdf.

Q12a, Q12c and Q12d feed into Key Finding 24 “Staff recommendation of the trust as a place towork or receive treatment”.

2. Overall indicator of staff engagement for Moorfields Eye Hospital NHSFoundation Trust

The figure below shows how Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust compares with otheracute specialist trusts on an overall indicator of staff engagement. Possible scores range from 1 to5, with 1 indicating that staff are poorly engaged (with their work, their team and their trust) and 5indicating that staff are highly engaged. The trust's score of 4.01 was above (better than) averagewhen compared with trusts of a similar type.

OVERALL STAFF ENGAGEMENT

This overall indicator of staff engagement has been calculated using the questions that make upKey Findings 22, 24 and 25. These Key Findings relate to the following aspects of staffengagement: staff members’ perceived ability to contribute to improvements at work (Key Finding22); their willingness to recommend the trust as a place to work or receive treatment (Key Finding24); and the extent to which they feel motivated and engaged with their work (Key Finding 25).

The table below shows how Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust compares with otheracute specialist trusts on each of the sub-dimensions of staff engagement, and whether there hasbeen a change since the 2012 survey.

1Questionnaires were sent to all 1686 staff eligible to receive the survey. This includes only staff employed directly by thetrust (i.e. excluding staff working for external contractors). It excludes bank staff unless they are also employed directlyelsewhere in the trust. When calculating the response rate, questionnaires could only be counted if they were receivedwith their ID number intact, by the closing date.

4. Key Findings for Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust

499 staff at Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust took part in this survey. This is aresponse rate of 30%1 which is below average for acute specialist trusts in England, andcompares with a response rate of 44% in this trust in the 2012 survey.

This section presents each of the 28 Key Findings, using data from the trust's 2013 survey, andcompares these to other acute specialist trusts in England and to the trust's performance in the2012 survey. The findings are arranged under six headings – the four staff pledges from theNHS Constitution, and the two additional themes of staff satisfaction and equality and diversity.

Positive findings are indicated with a green arrow (e.g. where the trust is better than average, orwhere the score has improved since 2012). Negative findings are highlighted with a red arrow(e.g. where the trust’s score is worse than average, or where the score is not as good as 2012).An equals sign indicates that there has been no change.

are robust, relevant and comprehensive so they can bemanaged and measured

The programme to develop the values andbehaviours will… involve as many staff as possible in the development

processes

engage staff with the benefits of values-based care,and begin to catalyse change

involve patients and carers to understand what greatcare looks like to them

build on current values, and existing insight intopatient experience and staff engagement
