14. 14 Final Version© Ipsos MORI Nurse/ consultant Service Patient How is care coordinated at the test sites? Medical model Traditional ‘medical’ model Patient attends follow-up appointments at regular intervals Referred on as necessary to other services Patient has details of CNS to contact if they have concerns Care is coordinated for the patient

15. 15 Final Version© Ipsos MORI Nurse/ consul- tant Service Patient How is care coordinated at the test sites? Self-management model (patient-centric) Self-management model Patient no longer attends follow up appointments Patient may have remote monitoring Patient is given information and advice to support them – signposting to other services Patient coordinates their own care

16. 16 Final Version© Ipsos MORI Nurse/ consultant Service Patient Service How is care coordinated at the test sites? Self-management model (in practice) Self-management model Patient no longer attends follow up appointments In some sites they are offered an appointment with the nurse instead or a telephone appointment Patient may have remote monitoring Patient is given information and advice to support them – signposting to other services (information days)

19. 19 Final Version© Ipsos MORI Care coordination – key questions How well was care coordinated between services at each test site? How well was care coordinated across primary and secondary care? Did patients have access to a range of different services? Did patients know who to contact about problems?

20. 20 Final Version© Ipsos MORI What is good care coordination? Patients described good care coordination as being: Someone is looking after them Leading to best possible quality of life Never out of touch with services Reliable Responsive Smooth QuickClear answers Right person at the right time Confidence

21. 21 Final Version© Ipsos MORI Potential enablers to good care coordination To identify the support that a patient might need To make patients aware of the support available To provide patients with the skills, knowledge and confidence they needed Patients saw the CNS as having a coordinating role Assessment and care planning Information days Self-management programmes The role of the CNS To record and share informationHand-held record

22. 22 Final Version© Ipsos MORI What happens when it goes wrong? Examples of bad care coordination were infrequent but consisted of: Seeing a different doctor every time Lack of information sharing or poor information sharing Admin errors (not receiving letters) Patient not involved in decisions Not feeling listened to Feeling rushed Possibility of falling through the net Worry that they will fall through the net even where not the case General stress

23. 23 Final Version© Ipsos MORI Staff views Self management as an end goal Concerns about patients’ ability to manage their own care Self-refer Coordinate services Assessment and care planning Information days Self-management programmes Rapid Access Service Actions Information days Self-management programmes

24. 24 Final Version© Ipsos MORI Challenges for care coordination Communication channels between primary and secondary care Cross site working Resourcing issues – moving demand? Under self-management, responsibility for coordinating care lies with patient (to a greater extent): Lack of care to be coordinated; or More services involved for the patient to coordinate themselves Lack of confidence Information overload A desire to feel ‘looked after’

25. 25 Final Version© Ipsos MORI What next? Final interviews with patients Analysis of the qualitative data Evaluation of care coordination What else can the data tell us? To what extent are patients self-managing their care? What does this involve? How do they feel about it? What information needs do patients have? Quantitative follow up survey
