answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/07/2019 answer text <p>Section 2.33 of NHS England’s Long Term Plan states:</p><p>“We will continue to identify and support carers, particularly those from vulnerable communities. Carers are twice as likely to suffer from poor health compared to the general population, primarily due to a lack of information and support, finance concerns, stress and social isolation. Quality marks for carer-friendly GP practices, developed with the Care Quality Commission (CQC), will help carers identify GP services that can accommodate their needs. We will encourage the national adoption of carer's passports, which identify someone as a carer and enable staff to involve them in a patient’s care, and set out guidelines for their use based on trials in Manchester and Bristol. These will be complemented by developments to electronic health records that allow people to share their caring status with healthcare professionals wherever they present.”</p><p> </p><p>There is currently no data on the number of Carer Passports nationally and the use of theses passports is variable across the country and across different health, care and community settings.</p><p> </p><p>Work commissioned by the Department and carried out by Carers UK and Carers Trust, led to the development of a carer passport resource. The Carer Passport resource is available at the following link:</p><p><a href="https://carerspassports.uk/" target="_blank">https://carerspassports.uk/</a></p><p>This provides information on existing passport frameworks and support for the development of carer passports across a range of settings. As part of NHS England’s commitments, we will be supporting the use of these passports and promoting this through the implementation of our Quality Markers in Primary Care (launched in June), ongoing development work with sustainability and transformation partnership and integrated care system localities and as an extension of work already in progress following the response to John’s Campaign within secondary care settings.

uin	263118
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/06/2019 answer text <p>The NHS Long Term Plan commits to grow investment in mental health services faster than growth in the National Health Service budget overall for each of the next five years. This means mental health will receive a growing share of the NHS budget, worth in real terms at least a further £2.3 billion a year by 2023/24. Additionally, the NHS also commits that funding for children and young people’s mental health services will grow faster than both overall NHS funding and total mental health spending. This means that children and young people’s mental health services will for the first time grow as a proportion of all mental health services, which will themselves also be growing faster than the NHS overall. The delivery of this commitment is supported by the annual Mental Health Investment Standard, which requires commissioners to allocate additional growth in funding for mental health.</p><p>The intention, also set out in the Long Term Plan, to make further efficiencies in NHS administrative costs is intended to ensure that an increasing share of the NHS budget is invested in frontline services by, amongst other things, simplifying costly and overly bureaucratic contracting processes.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 17/06/2019 15:47:19 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price

uin	262331
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/06/2019 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. An individual assessment would be undertaken of patients including their capacity and ability to consent to any continuation of their care or movement of care.</p><p>If it is determined that the appropriate action is to close the inpatient facility and any patient is to be moved, there would be whole system coordination by NHS England, CCGs, the CQC and the provider, whereby information from the individual risk assessment would inform prioritisation for the move. In terms of guidance given to other stakeholders on these processes there is a Standard Operating Procedure along with guidance on risk summits and QSGs.
