Minutes:
5.1 The Committee gave consideration to a report from NHS North and East London Commissioning Support Unit on the latest stage of the Transforming Services Changing Lives Programme now known as ‘Transforming Services Together’.
5.2 The Chair welcomed to the meeting Dr Sam Everington (Chair, Tower Hamlets CCG), Dr Steve Ryan (Medical Director, Barts Health NHS Trust), Mr Neil Kennett-Brown (Transformation Director – Newham, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest CCGs), Dr Zuhair Zarifa (Chair, Newham CCG), Ms Deborah Kelly (Deputy Chief Nurse – Patient Care and Experience, Barts Health NHS Trust), Mr Steve Millington (Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon, Barts Health NHS Trust), Ms Jo Carter (Stakeholder Relations Manager, Barts Health NHS Trust), Mr Satbinder Sanghera (Director of Partnerships and Governance, Newham CCG), Mr Don Neame (Director of Communications NHS NE London Commissioning Support Unit) and Ms Claire Lynch (Communications Manager, Transforming Services Together, NHS NEL CSU)
5.3 Members also gave consideration to a presentation “Transforming Services Together – Delivering a world-class healthcare service in east London” which was jointly presented by Drs Everington, Ryan and Zarifa as well as Mr Millington and Mr Kennett-Brown. Each introduced a section of the presentation as follows:
a) Dr Everington explained that the area is experiencing an increase in population and an increase in the prevalence of Long Term Conditions. 5% of patients are now managed in an integrated team. Many patients can now opt to die at home and there is also a great awareness of the need for the system to be more efficient. The vision they were working towards was that in 10 years time there would only be half the number of attendees at outpatients as there was now. They were utilising the latest ‘Apps’ to improve how they worked and to improve care pathways. The condition of NHS estates was also a serious problem. On diabetes for example they were now managing nearly all cases in a GP setting. The drive towards centralisation of specialisms was an important factor in improving patient outcomes as clinicians could have impact over a wider area and yet be available on a mobile phone. Much work was being done on joining up care pathways. Secondary care could only be responsible for 15-20% of people’s health and wellbeing. The role that other stakeholders play must be emphasised as schools, for example, have a much greater opportunity to be engaged with the mental, social and physical health of children. The local health economies faced very significant challenges with savings of £28m required in Tower Hamlets and £53m in Newham in 2015/16. The advent of Social Prescribing was to be welcomed and had great potential. Typically a GP had 60 consultations per day. The system also needed to connect better with the voluntary sector. There was a need to look at different ways of segmenting the population. Taking advantage of IT need not necessarily be a problem for older people and there were examples of octogenarians happily using Skype technologies for example.
