answer text <p>In 2018/19, NHS England commissioned 57 placements at St Andrew’s in-patient Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) in Northampton. This is the total number of admissions during the period. Patients may have been admitted more than once during the same period, each admission will be counted separately.</p><p>The information requested on placements in different inpatient settings is either not available in the format requested or not held centrally.</p><p>The total number of placements in CAMHS Tier 4 in-patient units commissioned by NHS England in each of the past three years is set out in the following table. These figures represent admissions for patients under the age of 18.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Year</p></td><td><p>Commissioned Placements</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2016/17</p></td><td><p>4,530</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2017/18</p></td><td><p>4,604</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2018/19</p></td><td><p>4,635</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>Whilst the Assuring Transformation data set records the number of people with learning disabilities and/or autism who are inpatient settings, we are unable to provide the information requested as such information can only be obtained at disproportionate cost.</p><p>There are a number of steps that NHS England may take following any Care Quality Commission (CQC) visit if an inadequate rating is received. A cross stakeholder quality risk profile (QRP) assessment will be undertaken where relevant parties, including the CQC, NHS England and NHS Improvement, the provider and clinical commissioning group (CCG) would meet to discuss the risks via an assessment tool and discuss them to identify any required action as a consequence.</p><p>As part of that process, there would be clear discussion regarding the areas that led to inadequate ratings and how they relate to patients in the care of that specific facility. A decision would then be taken as to whether there is enough assurance that current actions will address the concerns or whether the level of assurance is such that escalation to a single item quality surveillance group (QSG) or a risk summit with the provider is required.</p><p>As part of this process, there would be discussions around actions required and whether it would be appropriate to provide additional support to facilities in terms of additional staff and specialist staff.

answer text <p>Skills for Care estimate that care workers took 5.2 days off sick on average in 2017/18. The Department does not hold the reasons for days being taken off sick.</p><p>Adult social care employers have a responsibility to provide a safe environment for service users and employees and to protect people, as far as is reasonable, from violence and aggression at work. No member of staff should be expected to endure abuse or suffer fear from physical attack or threat as part of their job.</p><p>The Departments delivery partner, Skills for Care, has worked with adult social care employers to ensure they are able to minimise the risk to their workforce by effectively training and developing their staff to be able to support people through positive behaviour support. In addition, Skills for Care has published a range of guidance and resources to support social care organisations in managing the risks arising from violence and aggression.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Our Green Paper ‘Transforming children and young people’s mental health provision: a green paper’ sets out how we plan to increase the availability of support for children and young people, by reaching them through school or college. There are three key proposals:</p><p>- incentivising every school or college to identify and train a senior mental health lead;</p><p>- creating new mental health support teams in and near schools and colleges; and</p><p>- piloting a four-week waiting time to ensure swifter access to specialist NHS mental health services for those who need it.</p><p>In December 2018 we announced the first 25 ‘trailblazer’ sites that will implement the proposals to provide the new schools/college-based service, 12 of which will also pilot a four-week waiting time. This first wave of mental health support teams will be fully operational by the end of 2019, reaching over 1,000 schools and colleges. We are currently in the process of selecting sites for the 2019/20 wave of trailblazers.</p><p>Through the NHS Long Term Plan the National Health Service has set a goal of an extra 345,000 children and young people, aged 0-25, receiving support via NHS-funded mental health services by 2023/24.</p>
