  15. Project 2: Lean review of OP Teams • WHAT IS A LEAN REVIEW? • Reduce duplication and waste • Appropriate delegated authority to spend • Eliminate bureaucracy • Shorten forms and paperwork

  16. Project 2: Lean review of OP Teams • Success of enablement – key stats: • Of 1,708 people into enablement this year, 50% needed no on-going service • Homecare population fell by 700 last year with a further reduction projected • This has led to a 40% reduction in the number of personal budget assessments by Older People’s Teams

  17. Project 2: Lean review of OP Teams • Processes made lean: • ‘Trusted assessors’ – budget authorisers • New universal assessment process • New pathways for enablement services • Review of caseload expectations • Design new operational structure • Define roles and responsibilities

  18. Project 2: Lean review of OP Teams • Efficiency drivers: • Success of enablement services • More streamlined assessments • Target reduction in management • Benefits: • Financial savings of £1.6M per annum • Headcount reduction of approx 70 – trying to avoid compulsory redundancies

  20. Project 3: Lean review of LD Teams • Processes made lean: • Universal assessment • Expectations at care review • Alternative sources of care and support • Authorisations and approvals • Review of team structures: • Maintain community teams • Changes to transition team

  21. Project 3: Lean review of LD Teams • Older Family Carer’s Workers (4 posts): • Staff who provide support to family carers over the age of 70 caring for an adult with LD at home • This work has been mainstreamed into the community social work role • Support managed through teams • Named team lead for older family carers

  23. Project 4: Assessment and care management of older people with dementia Health and Community Services New Ways Programme

  24. Project 4: Older People with Dementia • Current arrangements: • HPfT have provided assessment and care management for all older people with mental ill health in integrated teams since 2005 • Perceived problem: • Whilst integrated health and social care input works well for older people with functional mental illness (e.g. depression or schizophrenia) it does not work well for older people with dementia • Care purchasing budget was never given to HPfT

  25. Project 4: Older People with Dementia • Drivers for change: • Delays to appropriate social care interventions • Delayed transfers of care • Slow uptake of enablement services • Relatively high permanent admission to care homes • High numbers of complaints • Proposed solution: • Transfer back the care management responsibility for older people with dementia and Alzheimer’s

  26. Project 4: Older People with Dementia • Detailed proposals: • Transfer approx 40 social care staff who work in the Specialist MH Teams for Older People (HPfT) back to HCC via TUPE • Integrate the workers into newly configured locality social work teams to support all older people • Ensure that any older person who is referred to HPfT navigates the system quickly • Transfer the care purchasing budget for older people with functional MH problems to HPfT

  27. Equality Impact Assessments • Have been developed iteratively for impact on both service users and staff
