8. PROJECT APPROACH Assimilation of existing engagement activity Third sector call for evidence Citizens panel questionnaire on health Voluntary sector / LINk input Used to inform chapter on engagement Consultation on the final JSNA

9. PROGRESS TO DATE JSNA currently being updated; aiming for a first draft by December Timescales had to be extended owing to pandemic flu Citizens panel questionnaire designed with LBI and about to be launched Third sector call – analysis to commence shortly. Existing engagement activity information – collated and currently identifying capacity for analysis Channels of communication with key stakeholders in voluntary sector and with LINk opened up

10. WHAT HAS WORKED WELL? Shift from a quantitative to a qualitative approach embraced New Head of Communications and Engagement – opportunity to raise the profile of engagement and role of JSNA at board level and to better engage with commissioning Opportunity to bring together engagement activities across LBI and PCT and analyse Engagement from LA colleagues – partnership approach

11. WHAT DIDN’T WORK WELL? Response to third sector call for information Project group delayed Engagement chapter written in parallel to the rest of the document – difficult to pull the quantitative and qualitative aspects together. Evidence base for chapters a challenge to produce Better integration between work streams may have been possible e.g. programme budgeting Timing with commissioning processes

12. WHAT WOULD BE DONE DIFFERENTLY? Project group in place earlier Workshop early on to brief chapter leads on developing evidence bases Integrate related work streams into one bundle Workshop type event for voluntary / community sector Better alignment with commissioning timescales

13. Perception that the JSNA was a one off and criticism of the 2008 process Competing priorities and lack of capacity Managing expectations of different stakeholders Voluntary sector and community understanding of the JSNA Rapidly changing environment – acute sector changes WHAT BARRIERS HAD TO BE OVERCOME?

14. Quality, Innovation, Productivity and Prevention and Total Place: - JSNA has offered a start but is just one part of the process - Whole systems approach is required We need to do further work to bench mark and evaluate services Raises a number of questions / concerns… - How do you balance community perception of need with organisational perceptions of how to rationalise? - How do we ensure the JSNA is fit for purpose in a rapidly changing environment? - How do we triangulate the JSNA, Dazi and the restructure the acute sector? LOOKING AHEAD…
