The comparative needs assessment - this includes comparing existing services and need against current healthcare standards and priorities. For the purposes of this HNA we will be using the nine key principles from the national service model. In particular the HNA was commissioned to focus on: Assessing areas of best practice by exploring the key functions, needs, priorities and performance of local services. Understanding by exploring: variations in the provision for community support Referral/assessment processes for LD patients, care planning systems, Discharge planning; Patient engagement within the services - feedback and satisfaction including complaints/compliments, engagement processes and consultation; Quality controls and assurance processes - clinical governance, risk assessment, care planning, critical incidence/complaints and patient and public involvement; and Workforce planning, inclusion and development - qualifications, training and skills. Reviewing what resources are available and how resources are used. Assessing where gaps in provision are that lead to inpatient admission - reviewing service performance measures in comparison to local and national policies and guidance, value for money, and meeting local commissioning strategies and plans. How the risks to patients are identified e.g. in not having equitable access to community services. Reviewing what analysis of needs has been undertaken at a national and local level. As part of the development of this plan each of the Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire CCGs has committed to work with CIE to undertake a local Health Needs Assessment workshop. A final report on this piece of work will be shared with South Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire TCP and will inform the future development of the programme by the footprint operational board, Learning Disability Partnership Boards, Patients and Carer groups for consideration. We will use the evidence both qualitatively and quantitatively to inform our future once the report has been published. Future engagement plans The TCP is already starting to develop its communication and engagement strategy and the Communications Leads from each area will be meeting in March 2016, to start to design the 3 year strategy and action plan process. The strategy will include:
