Important elements of the CYP workstream:
•
•
•
•
Safe Risk Stratification
Evaluating patient experience
Research & evidence
Providing the evidence to validate the
testing work
CYP Workstream - Four Principles
Principle 1
personalised, risk-stratified care
Principle 2
a shift to informed self-management
Principle 3
easy access to universal and, where
necessary, specialised services appropriate
to their needs
Principle 4
realistic/evidence-based/cost effective
“models of care”
What are our objectives?
• Test out models and evaluate “models of
care” that will inform future policy
• To improve clinical support and care
• To enhance efficiency
• To promote information sharing
• To ensure inclusive approach to living beyond
cancer
• To provide robust evidence to convince wider
NHS change is needed
Who is involved?
Who is involved in the testing ?
The test sites so far
17 test sites focusing on adult services
10 test sites focusing on children and young
people
27 projects
…… although working in parallel at this stage
the pathway/transition needs to be smooth
Summary of progress so far
-
Patients’/carers’ involvement at national and
local level
Clinical leadership
Identified what is important to survivors as basis
for testing
Measures established
Care Plan launched in September
Safe Risk Stratification exercise ready to start
Review of clinical evidence underway
What are we aiming to achieve by March 2010?
Summary of expected outcomes by March 2010:
-
Survivorship care plan framework tested/ready to roll out
Tangible/measurable outcomes for IT system work in Leeds
Case studies produced demonstrating progress from each test
site
Emerging principles for new models of care
Identification of issues for cancer survivors in non-clinical areas
in partnership with DH and charities
Evidence !!!
Some of the challenges
• Maintaining focus and momentum to make change
happen
• Sticking to timeframes
• Ensuring we have the evidence to persuade
• Making sure that we build on existing good practice
• Effectively sharing information
• Engaging key individuals and groups that can support
this initiative
• Ensuring we link with work in adult workstream
Early themes & learning emerging
• Care plans, shared widely, are basic requirement
• It is important to use technology to best effect when
designing follow-up for patients
• Need to reduce meaningless follow-up appointments
• No one size fits all!
• A shift is needed in terms of the “language” used in
relation to individuals living with and beyond cancer
• Evidence needs to be meaningful to the current
health economy
Key messages so far
•
•
•
•
•
Real commitment to make change happen
Test sites are enthusiastic with a clear focus
Successful change is never straightforward
The results will be immensely rewarding
This work has the ability to influence future
services
