• Introduction• Model of Care – CDM – “Out of Hospital”• Pilot to Practice – Mainstream Telecare• WSD – Other DOH initiatives• SAP – CAF – eSAP/CAF• Technological developments• Evaluation and Commissioning• Conclusion
MODEL OF DELIVERY FOR CHRONIC DISEASE
• Out of Hospital• Single Assessment Process Delivery• Common Assessment Framework• Risk Management• Reshaping Patient-Centred Care• White Paper – Our health, our care, our say• A New Ambition for Old Age
RISK STRATIFICATION
Disease Management
Supported self-management 70-80% of people with chronic conditions
Population-wide prevention
Case Case ManagemenManagementt
Highly complex patients
High risk patients
Managed care in the community and hospital settings covers all levels of the triangle
TELECARE DEFINITION
Telecare is the delivery of health and social care services to people usually in their own homes using a combination of sensor and information and communication technologies (ICT).
COLUMBA
LESSONS LEARNT
1997 - 2006
TELECARE
The individual in their home or wider environment
Electronic assistive technology, e.g.
Environmental controls, doors opening/closing, control of beds
Personal Monitoring: Physiological signs Activities of daily living
Information & Communication, e.g. health advice, triage, access to self-help groups
Safety & security monitoring, e.g. bath overflowing, gas left on, door unlocked

CONTEXT
• At least 12 major government reports since 1998 have called for telecare
• Delivering 21st century IT support for the NHS: ‘home telemonitoring’ to be available in 100% of homes requiring it by Dec 2010
• £80m in Comprehensive Spending Review for developing telecare and social alarm services
• The elements of a telecare framework are in place – NCRS, social alarm service, ICES
• Numerous trials shed light on implementation problems and individual outcomes
TECHNOLOGY IMPACT
• Reduces patient journeys, hospital visits and hospital admissions
• Saves the time of healthcare professionals• Supports individuals living at home to look
after themselves• Improves the quality or effectiveness of the
care or treatment that is delivered• Helps to manage the risk
TELECARE – The Challenge• Limited mainstream telecare in England as yet, no
joint commissioning – telecare not provided as a ‘care option’, what happens with practice-based commissioning?
• 150 SSDs, 152 PCTs, 238 DCs, housing assns, alarm providers would need to be involved in assessment and care planning via SAP/FACS etc with information sharing
• Who is the client?• Who pays?
TELECARE – The ChallengeMainstreaming
• Creating the organisational structure for implementation
• Retraining staff
• Apportioning costs
• Deciding eligibility
• NEEDS IT BACK UP TO IMPROVE INFORMATION FLOW

SINGLE ASSESSMENT PROCESS
• Common Assessment Framework
Who Leads?What Criteria?All Levels of Need
“There is the tantalising possibility for public policy to meet more people’s desire to remain independent for longer, while at the same time
saving money overall”

CORE PROCESSES FOR CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT
• Involve the patient and customise for their needs• Easy access• Manage populations through integrated databases –
screen and risk manage• Develop robust networks between: - patients (support groups) - patients and professionals (communities of care) - professionals (communities of practice)
CORE PROCESSES FOR CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT
• Training and development for patients and professionals
• Develop expert systems:
- expert patients
- expert professionals
- expert ICT with protocols, guidelines etc that develops shared knowledge
• Clinical governance that depends on good evaluation and the ability to track the patient in the system

• A collection of linked websites, or “virtual communities” to help patients, their families and healthcare professionals to support sufferers of Parkinson’s Disease
• Medixine/North Surrey PCT/Imperial College, London
KEY ISSUES
• Who is offered Telecare?
• What levels of sophistication of equipment?
• Do we need national criteria?
• Should the equipment be free?
• Should the revenue cost be means tested?
• Should it be disease led?

*Potential impact of the 2006-08 Preventative Technology Grant investment on the estimated number of hours of domiciliary care needed in Telecare Valley (excluding care homes).
Hours of care (thousands)
• The provision of telecare has an immediate impact on total staffing levels. When assessing staffing, it is not only formal carers who need to be included, but also the call centre staff and response teams on which telecare networks crucially depend. The demand for staff is particularly high at the beginning of a telecare investment project when this human infrastructure needs to be set up, the telecare equipment installed and everyone trained to use it.

CONCLUSIONS• Major Service Redesign
• Whole System Integrated Approach
• Use the IT Agenda as a catalyst for change
• Single Assessment Process to mainstream Telecare
• Cross Organisational Workflow and Workforce required
• Managing the Risk is essential
• Patient and Carers need to be part of the team
• Accuracy of Data essential
• Win Win
CONCLUSIONS
TELECARE CANPostpone and divert people from RH/NHReduce the need for hospitalisation• BUTNeed robust data for reapportioning costsLets resist short-termism getting in the wayTelecare is a useful adjunct to careNeeds to be part of a care prescription to reduce
routine tasks and improve quality and flexibility of Care Delivery at Home
