answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/03/2018 answer text <p>The Government is committed to public services which recognise every aspect of an individual’s needs including health, social care and employment support and approach these in a joined up way.</p><p>Health and Wellbeing Boards (HWBs) have a statutory duty to produce a joint health and wellbeing strategy for their local populations. They must ensure services of the highest quality which promote health and wellbeing, narrow inequalities and improve outcomes for local residents. Collaborative, multi-agency working is at the heart of a HWBs function in order to make the best use of resources collectively available whilst helping to coordinate care and support around an individual’s needs, irrespective of the payment mechanism.</p><p>One example of a joined up approach is our commitment to see one million more disabled people in work by 2027. Integrated health and employment support is a key part of this, and our strategy is set out in the Command Paper <em>Improving Lives: the Future of Work, Health and Disability. </em>The publication outlines the decisive action and wide ranging reforms we’re taking across three key settings: the welfare system, the workplace and health services.

uin	HL3222
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/11/2017 answer text <p>The Care Planning, Placement and Case Review (England) Regulations 2010 require regular assessment of mental and emotional health, as well as of physical health. Statutory guidance published in 2015 states that this case review must happen within 20 working days of the child starting to be looked after and must be done by a registered medical practitioner. In 2015, the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence updated PH28, its public health guidance on looked-after children and young people. Recommendation 20 is that ‘all looked-after children and young people have their physical, emotional and mental health needs assessed by appropriately trained professionals.’</p><p> </p><p>From 2018, the Department for Education will pilot new approaches to improve the quality of mental health assessments for looked-after children on entry to care.</p> answering member printed Lord O'Shaughnessy question first answered 27/11/2017 13:10:44 answering member 4545 label Biography information for Lord O'Shaughnessy

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government, in the light of the guidance issued by NHS England to clinical commissioning groups in May stating that all areas of the country should have a system in place from September to ensure that all new GP referrals are subject to clinical peer review, how they define such reviews.
tabling member printed	Lord McColl of Dulwich
uin	HL1581
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/09/2017 answer text <p>Clinical peer reviews are a simple way for general practitioners (GPs) to support each other and help patients get the best care, from the right person at the right time, without having to make unnecessary trips to hospital. More than half of clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) have already implemented some form of clinical peer review system and the NHS England guidance will help ensure best practice is shared to the remaining local commissioners.</p><p> </p><p>There is flexibility in how local CCGs and their GPs implement prospective internal clinical peer review, but it should see GPs reviewing each other’s new referrals to provide constructive feedback in a safe learning environment. Delivering prospective internal peer review will help ensure that all patients get access to the optimum care pathway. It should not be established as an approval process and the referring GP retains responsibility for the patient and makes the final decision.</p> answering member printed Lord O'Shaughnessy question first answered 21/09/2017 12:09:27 answering member 4545 label Biography information for Lord O'Shaughnessy
