An objective of Building the Right Support is to achieve a 50% reduction in the number of people with a learning disability and autistic people in specialist inpatient settings by 2023/24 through the development of community alternatives. The latest Assuring Transformation data shows the number of people with a learning disability and autistic people in specialist inpatient settings at the end of October 2021 was 2,070 - a 28.5% net reduction since March 2015. The data shows variation across integrated care systems and transforming care partnerships, with some areas already having achieved inpatient rates at the 2023/24 target.

In Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire (BNSSG), the School Age Immunisation Service (SAIS) visited every secondary school in the area to provide a first dose COVID-19 vaccination clinic for 12 to 15 year olds. These clinics concluded in December 2021. Parents or carers can now book an appointment at a dedicated general practitioner or vaccination clinic using the online National Booking Service or via 119. The large-scale centre at the University of the West of England Bristol offers walk-in vaccinations for 12 to 15 year olds seven days a week.<\/p>

Local clinics are planned in schools in areas where uptake in this age group is low. These clinics will be promoted through schools and local authorities, with parents or carers able to make an appointment using a local booking system. BNSSG also offers walk-in family clinics, some of which offer vaccinations for 12 to 15 year olds alongside adult vaccinations. A number of these may be based in schools out of school hours or in a clinic in very close proximity to a cluster of schools.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4447", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Maggie Throup"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Erewash"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Maggie Throup"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2022-01-31", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "previousAnswerVersion" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1385716/answer/previousversion/38450", "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4447", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Maggie Throup"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Erewash"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Maggie Throup"} } , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2022-01-31T15:13:42.807Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2021-12-07", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Coronavirus: Vaccination"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to help increase the number of covid-19 walk-in centres in Bristol aimed at vaccinating 12 to 15 year olds.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4621", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Darren Jones"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Bristol North West"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Darren Jones"} ], "uin" : "88818"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1385724", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1385724/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

In accordance with the Abortion Act 1967 and the Abortion Regulations 1991, all abortions performed in England, including early medical abortions where both pills are taken at home, must be notified to the Chief Medical Officer within 14 days of the procedure. Any complication known to the practitioner terminating the pregnancy, at the time the notification is submitted, should be recorded on the Abortion Notification (HSA4) form. All serious incidents should be reported by the provider to their commissioner, the Care Quality Commission and other relevant organisations in line with the serious incident framework published by NHS England and NHS Improvement.<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

The Department is undertaking a project to review the system of recording abortion complications data and we anticipate this work will be completed shortly. The review will cover all data on complications arising from abortion including home use of early medical abortion pills. To improve the accuracy of the data collected, the Department is working with a range of statutory bodies, professional organisations and abortion providers to identify additional sources of information that could be used to complement complications data collected via HSA4 abortion notification forms and improve the flow of data on abortion complications between different organisations, such as independent and National Health Service abortion providers and wider NHS health and care services.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4447", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Maggie Throup"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Erewash"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Maggie Throup"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2021-12-13", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : {"_value" : "88662"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "previousAnswerVersion" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1385724/answer/previousversion/38435", "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4447", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Maggie Throup"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Erewash"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Maggie Throup"} } , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2021-12-13T10:24:27.047Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2021-12-07", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Abortion"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps his Department is taking to (a) collect and (b) analyse data on the impact in clinical settings of women requiring medical intervention following the use of medication related to early medical abortions at home; and if he will make a statement.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1502", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr David Jones"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Clwyd West"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mr David Jones"} ], "uin" : "88661"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "next" : "https://eldaddp.azurewebsites.net/answeredquestions.text?_page=1&answeringDeptId=17&max-dateTabled=2021-12-07", "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 60197, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
