Keep learning – learning new skills can give you a sense of achievement and a new confidence. So why not sign up for that cooking course, start learning to play a musical instrument, or figure out how to fix your bike? Find out more in Learn for mental wellbeing. Give to others – even the smallest act can count, whether it's a smile, a thank you or a kind word. Larger acts, such as volunteering at your local community centre, can improve your mental wellbeing and help you build new social networks. Learn more in Give for mental wellbeing. Be mindful – be more aware of the present moment, including your thoughts and feelings, your body and the world around you. Some people call this awareness "mindfulness". It can positively change the way you feel about life and how you approach challenges. Learn more in Mindfulness for mental wellbeing.
CPS Update NHS Long Term Plan PCNs Future of Pharmacy Next Steps
NHS Long Term Plan Aims: Everyone gets the best start in life World class care for major health problems Supporting people to age well How: Primary care networks (PCNs) as the foundation for Integrated Care Systems Preventing ill health and tackling health inequalities Supporting the workforce Maximising opportunities presented by data and technology Continued focus on efficiency In January 2018, NHS England published the Long Term Plan setting out healthcare priorities over the next 10 years
What are PCNs? Networks based on general practice registered lists, typically serving communities of around 30,000 to 50,000 patients. Small enough to provide the personal care valued by both patients & healthcare professionals, but large enough to have impact & economies of scale through better collaboration between general practices & others in the local health & social care system, including community pharmacies.
PCNs cont. 15 PCNs in Sheffield (previously 16 Neighbourhoods) PCNs will include an increase in the number of clinical pharmacists – aim = 1 per practice Community pharmacists could be recruited to work in PCN clinical pharmacist roles Groups of community pharmacy providers could be providers of clinical pharmacists to PCNs Medication review and optimisation service to start in 2020/21 – clinical review of patients’ medication, focused on priority groups, e.g. asthma/COPD, LD, frail elderly and care home patients
Network Contract DES Service Requirements Structured medication reviews and optimisation; Enhanced health in care homes; Anticipatory care; Supporting early cancer diagnosis; Personalised care (as part of the NHS comprehensive model); CVD prevention and diagnosis; Tackling neighbourhood inequalities. PCNs could think about collaborating with community pharmacies to deliver these Examples of ideas where community pharmacy could help at a PCN level include: Frail older people – medicines optimisation; falls prevention, development of care plans, AKI Vaccination: pertussis, travel Mental health – depot injections, communication with care co-ordinators Support and co-ordination of local social service teams who support patients with medication. Medicine policy and training managed by those with expertise in medicines. Phlebotomy services Long term condition management: BP checks, BM checks, inhaler checks/respiratory reviews, skin conditions etc. Condition education through direct contact and literature provision. Bi-annual medication review or more frequent if needed. Pain management Support for vulnerable patients Sexual health: contraceptive implants, depo-provera, supply of long term contraceptives/pill checks?
