To receive the above presentation from Jane Hogg.

Jane Hogg, Transformation Director gave a presentation on the above titled item. It was outlined that there were currently three categories of transformation initiatives; improved support to stay well; joined up accessible local care and specialist care when needed. Under these three categories sat ways in which transformation would be achieved which included; prevention and self-care; integrated care decision making; GP transformation; supporting the workforce; care and support; reducing clinical variation and the implementation of the shared care record. Members were told that Frimley Health and Care were working towards building a five year strategy with partners and our population and that this would feed into the NHS long term plan. It was outlined that there would be importance placed on strengthening each place with the support of the local authority and health partners. It was highlighted that there would be a key role for primary networks as they developed. Insights would be provided across the population and would highlight variances within it. Members were told that that there would be a greater focus on wider determinants and not solely on health interventions. There was specific mention of the need to reduce variation through new approaches in the most challenged areas and vulnerable populations. It was noted that there would be a commitment to develop the strategy from a granular level with a particular focus on independence, asset mapping and managing health and wellbeing for individuals. At a system level there were opportunities to look at the population as a whole and that there was a foundation for collaborative leaderships to emerge and develop.

The Board were informed that Frimley ICS had natural communities which varied in size and that locally place was defined to include the following local authority boundaries- Slough, Bracknell Forest, Surrey, Windsor/Maidenhead and Hampshire. It was outlined that neighbour had been defined as primary care networks. Members were told that some elements of working partnerships did not fall into place as organically as provider sectors or clinical networks. It was accepted that there would be other geographies and docking, along with variations in scale for the task. It was highlighted that place was were the most locally focussed change would occur and that it was crucial to recognise the key partnerships with local authorities. It was outlined that these partnerships would form major roles in the delivery of outcomes and improvements for local populations. A genuine opportunity has arisen for residents from PCNs, providers, CCGs, VCOs and LAs to work together as one team with the wider local populations. Members were informed that there was a need to agree how places would drive change whilst continuing to drive benefits at scale. Councillor Coppinger queried how the Board and wider cohort of elected members could support the ICS, and it was noted that wider dissemination of information to networks was key. Kevin McDaniel, Director of Children’s Services commented that he was pleased to see children’s priorities outlined and included, and that there was further work to be carried out with breaking down barriers but that progress felt positive.
