Engaging with clinicians and practitioners who work in health and social care in Croydon. Collecting views, opinions and information about health and social care for the over 65’s. Running working groups with volunteers to develop an Outcomes Framework.
Summary of Engagement Activities 3 public Events One to One Interviews Lunch Clubs Surrey Street Market Access Croydon BME Forum Event Carers Day Event Sheltered Housing Primary Care Engagement Clinician and Practitioner Engagement Working Groups
Quotes from engagement events “Small groups meant we were able to input into the variety of topics under discussion” “Diversity of the group – age, ethnicity & gender. It was very informative” “It enabled us to express our thoughts and learn about other people’s views about the needs in Croydon” “Good discussions – we were able to put points forwards” “There were well run, well organised group discussions”
What is an Outcomes Framework? High Level Outcomes Produced with local people, clinicians and voluntary sector Outcome Goals Give more definition to the high level outcomes. Outcome Indicators Allow us to clearly demonstrate achievement or otherwise of the outcomes. Incentivised Indicators Chosen to incentivise outcome improvement
How the Outcomes Framework was developed. Looking at best practice care internationally Four themes were identified Themes were then used in our engagement events Literature Review Feedback, data and ‘I’ Statements collated from the events. 4 high level outcomes (‘I’ Statements) were then generated Data used to develop first draft of outcome goals Events & 1:1 interviews Volunteers from the public events, Clinicians and practitioners Tested and further develop the outcome goals Develop potential indicators Working Groups
How ‘I statements’ become “high level outcomes” Long Term Conditions I would like joined up treatment via a case manager who has access to all areas of health and social care. I would like to keep a dedicated GP who knows about my medical/personal history. I want to be supported by a member of the health and social care team who has had the training and has the specialist knowledge to understand how my health and social care needs affect me Unplanned Care I feel known as a person and a service specific to me I have care with the right input at the right time to return to “normal” as soon as possible I need treatment quickly and tailored to my needs. I want to be supported as an individual, with services specific to me Keeping Healthy and Well I would like to know that support is available if my health deteriorates. I want service to keep me as healthy as possible for as long as possible. I would like to be advised of opportunities and facilities to improve my healthy lifestyle. I want to stay healthy and active for as long as possible Independence I feel safe inside my “home” I feel people should be helped to stay in their own home or appropriate setting I want to receive the best quality care available in order to live as I choose and as independent a life as possible
The High Level Outcomes I want to stay healthy and active for as long as possible. I want to receive the best quality care available in order to live as I choose and as independent a life as possible.

How were ‘outcomes’ and ‘outcome goals’ developed High Level Outcome 1 I want to stay healthy and active for as long as possible Outcome Goal 1.2 Prevent Obesity and malnourishment Eat well and keep active from a younger age - not just waiting until retirement eat well and keep active from a younger age Outcome Goal 1.10 Avoiding Loneliness Being socially included Sense of purpose Live as sociable a life as desired
Working Groups Three Working Groups were held in May and June. Participants were: Members of the public who attended Town Hall Events, clinicians and practitioners from health and social care organisations. Working groups used the raw information we received from the public and patients Outcomes and Outcome goals were refined to produce an ‘outcomes framework’
Working Groups Involvement from the public Why I volunteered. How I contributed as a member of the group. What I understand about the process. Why it was important to have public involvement in the development of the outcomes.
How engagement has shaped the outcomes The engagement activities were co-designed with local voluntary sector organisations. As a result, we have engaged over 400 Croydon residents through a range of engagement activities. All suggestions are properly considered and priority given to those where there has been agreement about their relevance and importance. The views of the public, patients and carers have fundamentally shaped the outcome framework
