answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/09/2019 answer text <p>The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) clinical guidelines provide recommendations for the care of individuals in specific clinical conditions or circumstances within the National Health Service. NICE’s clinical guidelines help healthcare professionals deliver the best possible care based on the best available evidence. The guidelines are not mandatory, although health and care commissioners are expected to take them fully into account.</p><p>One of the key priorities of NHS England’s Long Term Plan is to reduce avoidable admissions to hospital and to ensure that, when admission is needed, people with dementia and delirium experience the best possible care.</p><p>We are committed to further expanding the provision of liaison mental health services so that no acute hospital is without an all-age mental health liaison service in accident and emergency (A&amp;E) departments and inpatient wards by 2020/21. The establishment of acute frailty services in all hospitals with a major A&amp;E department by the end of 2019 will ensure that patients can be assessed, treated and supported by skilled multidisciplinary teams delivering a geriatric assessment within the first hour of arrival. These services will support better identification and treatment of dementia and delirium in hospitals.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 05/09/2019 12:10:19 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/09/2019 answer text <p>The Department is working closely with local government, other Government departments, and with national partners including the Local Government Association and Association of Directors of Adult Social Services, to do everything appropriate to prepare for a ‘no deal’ exit on 31 October 2019. This will ensure that the potential impacts of exiting the European Union on vulnerable people using adult social care services are mitigated as far as possible.</p><p>The Department continues to monitor and analyse overall staffing levels in the social care sector and we have been monitoring leaver and joiner rates of EU staff on a regular basis since the 2016 referendum. We are not complacent and have plans in place to ensure there will continue to be sufficient staff to deliver the high-quality services on which the public relies. Our overall programme of work is comprehensive, thorough and continuously updated and will stand irrespective of the terms in which the United Kingdom leaves the EU.</p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 09/09/2019 16:07:44 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage
