7 Introduction Local reporting This local report contains a full presentation of your results for the third round of the National Audit of Dementia alongside the national results from all participating hospitals. If your hospital participated in the second round, these results are also shown where applicable. The national data and data from your hospital are presented in four ways in this report: Themed scores derived from the four audit tools Key messages and recommendations from this round s National Report A full breakdown of your data by audit theme A full breakdown of your data by audit tool (in separate Appendices document). Background to the audit The National Audit of Dementia (care in general hospitals) examines aspects of care received by people with dementia in general hospitals in England and Wales. The audit is commissioned by the Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership on behalf of NHS England and the Welsh Government, as part of the National Clinical Audit Programme. The audit is managed by the Royal College of Psychiatrists in partnership with: Royal College of Nursing Royal College of Physicians British Geriatrics Society Alzheimer s Society Dementia Action Alliance Age UK John s Campaign. Data collection There have been two previous rounds of the National Audit of Dementia, reporting in 2011 and Round 2 of the audit showed that while significant progress in the care provided to people with dementia had taken place, some aspects of care still needed to evolve. The Round 2 report recommended collecting feedback from the carers of people with dementia and staff who provide care, to gain a better understanding of important aspects of care, such as communication and understanding individual needs. Round 3 of the National Audit of Dementia collected data between April and vember The audit was open to all general acute hospitals in England and Wales providing acute services on more than one ward which admit adults over the age of 65. One hundred and ninety-nine hospitals in England and Wales (98 of eligible hospitals) took part in this round of audit. A list of participating hospitals is on our website. National Audit of Dementia Round 3 Good Hope Hospital 5
8 Participating hospitals were asked to complete four elements for the audit: A hospital level organisational checklist A retrospective casenote audit with a target of a minimum of 50 sets of patient notes A survey of carer experience of quality of care A staff questionnaire on providing care and support to people with dementia. In total, the audit received 199 organisational checklists, casenote submissions, staff questionnaires and 4664 carer questionnaires. Hospitals which submitted less than 5 carer or staff questionnaires, have not received any data in their local report in order to protect anonymity. Hospitals which submitted 5 to 9 of either questionnaire have not received the demographic information for that questionnaire. Good Hope Hospital completed an organisational checklist, submitted 55 casenote audits, submitted 54 eligible staff questionnaires and 55 eligible carer questionnaires. Audit standards The standards for the National Audit of Dementia have been derived from national and professional guidance, including NICE Quality Standards, the Dementia Friendly Hospitals Charter and reports from the Alzheimer s Society, Age Concern and Royal Colleges. The standards have been compiled with their sources and the questions used to measure them, and can be found on the audit website. How to use this report Scoring in Round 3 of audit For the first time for the National Audit of Dementia, we present hospital level scores. The scoring system allows easy comparison between hospitals on the different themes of the audit. There are seven scores, each relating to an audit theme, plus a score for the carer overall rating of care. There was insufficient data available to produce a score for the staffing and training theme. The full method for the scoring can be found on the audit website. On pages 9 and 10 you will find the national mean averages, the scores for your hospital and the range of scores for each theme. To receive a full set of scores, hospitals were required to provide one complete organisational checklist, more than 19 casenotes, 20 or more eligible staff questionnaires and 10 or more carer questionnaires. Hospitals with fewer than the required number, have not received a score for that theme. Scores are derived from separate data sources and therefore should be viewed independently. For example, a hospital s score for Assessment should only be compared to other Assessment scores, rather than the other scores for the same hospital. A hospital s highest score may not reflect its area of greatest achievement, if it is a theme in which all hospitals have scored highly. National Audit of Dementia Round 3 Good Hope Hospital 6
9 Case adjustment The impact of gender, age and ethnicity on scores were examined. The differences between the unadjusted and adjusted hospital scores were very small and there were no meaningful adjustments to be made. Therefore, all scores have been left in an unadjusted format. Data breakdown by audit theme Audit standards are measured across the audit tools. Therefore, data submitted are presented thematically, with data from different tools presented together. The themes are: 1. Assessment Data from the casenote audit. This looks at whether people with dementia admitted to hospital have received a comprehensive assessment, and how well each element of assessment is carried out. 2. Information and communication Data from the organisational checklist, casenote audit, staff and carer questionnaires. This looks at communication systems in use in the hospital, evidence of their use in casenotes and presents feedback from carers and staff about the quality of communication. 3. Staffing and training Data from the organisational checklist, staff questionnaire and carer questionnaire. This looks at staffing provision, the extent of training delivery in hospitals and presents feedback from staff on training quality. 4. Nutrition Data from the organisational checklist and staff questionnaire. This looks at whether hospitals have services that provide for the needs of people with dementia and presents feedback from staff on service quality. 5. Discharge and hospital transfer Data from the organisational checklist and casenote audit. This looks at the extent of planning for discharge from hospital for people with dementia and whether they and their carers are adequately informed. 6. Governance Data from the organisational checklist, staff questionnaire and carer questionnaire. This looks at the involvement of hospital leads and the Executive Board in leading, planning and monitoring care, review of the environment and carer engagement.

10 Data tables in audit theme chapters Table 1: Explanation of how data tables are presented in audit theme chapters Std Question number, tool and text Standard reference and type. Standards document can be found on the audit website. Audit tool that item appears in and question number. Question wording as in tool. The national audit refers to all hospitals from England and Wales that participated in Round 3 of the audit. Data for your hospital from Round 3. If the same question or a similar question was asked in Round 2, we have provided your Round 2 data, for comparison. Therefore, the carer and staff questionnaires are not represented in this column. We have provided the percentage yes response (unless otherwise indicated) and the numerator/ denominator. The denominator will change throughout the report, depending on whether questions were routed (not asked in some instances), N/A responses chosen (these have been excluded from the analyses), or if staff and carers did not respond to a question. When comparing Round 2 data with Round 3 data, please be aware that differences in sample sizes and slight wording changes to some questions, can affect results in both rounds. Comparison of the data should be made with caution. Quality Assurance visits Quality assurance visits were carried out to five randomly selected sites, and items checked across ten casenotes submitted, also randomly selected. It appears that there may be some variation in the ways in which sites are carrying out and recording some assessments and discharge planning. This may also affect your results. adjustments were made to data following the quality assurance visits. Data breakdown by audit tool Data has also been presented by audit tool. This can be found in the separate Appendices document. Inter-rater reliability Inter-rater reliability analysis was carried out for the casenote audit and full results are on the audit website. Any items with an inter-rater agreement of less than 0.5 have been highlighted in the casenote audit, Appendix C (Appendices in a separate document).

13 Key findings in local and national reporting The National Report for this round of audit contained five key messages derived from the national data set. These are shown below. For local reporting, we have included graphical representations of data related to the key findings to allow for comparison between your hospital and the national results. These can be found starting on page 12. Key findings from the National Report Delirium recording requires improvement In more than half of casenotes of people with dementia, there was no recording of an initial screen or check for symptoms of delirium. Inconsistency in what is recorded and communicated may affect clinical care and thereby increase a person with dementia s risk to developing delirium. Personal information to support better care must be accessible A ward spot check carried out during the audit looked for the document with key personal information about care needs and communication that should be completed for people with dementia, and found that only half of these patients had one in place. Forty percent of staff said that they could not access this information most of the time, and under half of carers said definitely, staff were well informed. Services must meet the nutritional needs of people with dementia Catering services should be able to provide for the needs of people with dementia, who may not be able to eat full meals at regular times and need finger food meal alternatives and snacks available at any time to ensure they are nourished. Less than 75 of staff said that they could obtain finger foods or snacks between meals for these patients. Twenty-four percent of staff thought people with dementia had nutritional needs met sometimes, or were not met. Championing dementia means supporting staff To support staff to deliver better care, nearly all hospitals have created dementia champions at ward level. Just under 70 of carers gave a high rating to care overall. Staff said they needed more support, especially out of hours when less than a quarter of staff said they could access specialist support for dementia always or most of the time. Involve the person with dementia in decision making Where a change in residence after discharge (e.g. from their own home to a care home) was proposed, just over one third of patients did not have their consent to begin this process recorded, or evidence that a best interests decision making process had taken place, in the case that they lacked capacity. National Audit of Dementia Round 3 Good Hope Hospital 11
14 Key findings and Good Hope Hospital This section of the report presents some of the data and recommendations associated with the key findings. Some additional questions from the carer questionnaire are also included. Each figure shows the national mean average results next to the data for your hospital to allow for easy comparison. All percentages have been rounded up to a whole number which means some results may calculate to just under or over 100. The national averages include data collected from 199 hospitals across England and Wales. The exact sample sizes for both the national sample and the sample for your hospital are presented in the figure titles. Very low sample sizes (below ten) should be interpreted with caution. Sample sizes of four or less are indicated in the title but are not shown on the graph (the bar for your hospital will be blank and you will see a symbol ( ) to indicate this) as they cannot be interpreted with reliability. Delirium Figure 1 shows the percentage of patients receiving an initial and full clinical assessment for delirium, alongside the percentage of patients who had symptoms of delirium summarised (where applicable) for discharge. All of this data is taken from the casenote audit. Please note that initial delirium assessment is an item with lower than average inter-rater reliability (full results can be found on the audit website). Therefore, your results may relate to inconsistency in the recording of this assessment which may point to a need to agree local procedures to ensure that this important information is consistently recorded and shared of casenotes Initial screening for delirium Clinical assessment for delirium Type of delirium assessment National average Symptoms of delirium summarised for discharge Figure 1: Percentage of patients who had: an initial screening for delirium, for the national sample (n=10047) and your hospital (n=55); a clinical assessment for delirium following the screening, for the national sample (n=2603) and your hospital (n=11); symptoms of delirium summarised for discharge, for the national sample (n=2367) and your hospital (n=8). National Audit of Dementia Round 3 Good Hope Hospital 12
15 Key recommendations: Delirium Medical and Nursing Directors should: Ensure that hospitals have robust mechanisms in place for assessing delirium in people with dementia including: At admission, a full clinical delirium assessment, whenever indicators of delirium are identified. Cognitive tests administered on admission and again before discharge. Delirium screening and assessment fully documented in the patients notes (regardless of the outcome). Care offered in concordance with the delirium evidence-base recommendations when the assessment indicates symptoms of delirium. Results recorded on the electronic discharge summary. Ensure staff receive training in delirium and its relationship to dementia, manifestations of pain, and behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia. Personal information about the person with dementia Information about the collection and use of personal information for people with dementia was collected via the organisational checklist, casenote audit, staff questionnaire and carer questionnaire. Although some items on the organisational checklist suggested that the use of personal information collection tools was at close to 100, items from the other audit tools suggest that in practice, this figure is lower. Figures 2 to 5 show data about personal information collection in practice. Hospitals were asked to complete a mini spot check of whether patients who should have a personal information document in their notes had one. Figure 2 shows the results of this mini audit. 100 of patients with a personal information document National average Figure 2: Results from the mini audit, showing the percentage of patients checked who had a personal information document present. National sample (median number checked=10) and your hospital sample (n=10). National Audit of Dementia Round 3 Good Hope Hospital 13
16 Figure 3 shows that some pieces of personal information are more often found in patient notes than others. At a national level, the pieces of information recorded least often are factors which may cause distress and actions which can help to calm the patient. An unknown response was provided for these questions in Round 3 for hospitals to indicate where this information is usually recorded in a document which accompanies the patient (e.g. This is Me or patient passport) and no copy was available in the notes. of casenotes Personal detailsfood and drink and preferences preferences National average ( responses) National average ( responses) Support with personal care Factors may cause distress Actions which can calm patient Information in the casenotes about the person with dementia Details to aid communication National average (Unknown responses) ( responses) Figure 3: Percentage of casenotes where information about the person with dementia had been collected.

National sample (n=4578) and your hospital sample (n=54). The staff questionnaire also assessed availability of personal information for people with dementia by asking staff whether this information was accessible to them. The results of this are shown in Figure of staff National average In your current role, do you think that personal information is available to you to help you care for/ support people with dementia?, always, most of the time, sometimes Figure 5: Staff perspective on the availability of personal information to help them care for/support people with dementia. National sample (n=14345) and your hospital sample (n=53). National Audit of Dementia Round 3 Good Hope Hospital 15
18 Key recommendations: Personal information National Commissioners (Welsh Government, NHS England) should propose a nationally backed monitoring programme aimed at embedding the collection, sharing and use of person centred information. This should include a clear expectation that once gathered, this information will follow the patient between providers, and this will be monitored. Ward Managers should audit implementation/use of personal information collected to improve care for patients (e.g. This is Me or other locally developed document). The result of the audit should be fed back to the dementia champions/dementia lead and ward staff. Nutritional needs of people with dementia The staff questionnaire collected data on aspects of patient nutrition and hydration. Figures 6, 7 and 8 show staff responses to three of these questions. Figure 6 shows that nationally, almost a quarter of staff thought that the nutritional needs of people with dementia were not met at least most of the time of staff National average Do you think that people with dementia you care for/ support, have their nutritional needs met while on the ward(s) you work on?, always, most of the time, sometimes Figure 6: Staff perspective on meeting the nutritional needs of patients with dementia. National sample (n=12263) and your hospital sample (n=42). The staff questionnaire asked nurses and healthcare assistants working on wards at mealtimes about accessing finger foods and snacks between meals for people with dementia. The results are presented in Figures 7 and 8. National Audit of Dementia Round 3 Good Hope Hospital 16

National sample (n=9119) and your hospital sample (n=33). National Audit of Dementia Round 3 Good Hope Hospital 17
20 Key recommendations: Nutrition Clinical Commissioning Groups and Health Board commissioning services should ensure that tenders let by Trusts for new catering contracts always specify provision of finger foods for main meals and access to a range of snacks 24 hours a day. Medical and Nursing Directors should promote the attendance of key carers to support care, but ensure that this is complementary to, and not instead of, care delivered by staff. The level of input by carers, and how carers feel about the level of input they have been asked to deliver should be monitored through carer feedback, complaints and PALS enquiries. Carer satisfaction should be seen as a marker of good care. Ward managers should be supported to ensure carers supporting patients should not be asked to leave at mealtimes/stopped from helping with meals (this excludes emergency and urgent care and treatment). Support for staff The staff questionnaire asked staff about various aspects of support provided to them when caring for or supporting people with dementia. Figures 9, 10 and 11 demonstrate how staff rated some of these aspects of support. Figure 9 shows how prepared staff felt after completing one or more forms of training provided by the hospital they currently work in. Responses where the respondent indicated they were answering about training received elsewhere were not included in analyses. of staff National average Following your training at this hospital, do you feel better prepared to provide care/ support to people with dementia?, much better prepared, somewhat better prepared Figure 9: Staff view of training provided by their current hospital. National sample (n=10670) and your hospital sample (n=37). The staff questionnaire also asked staff how well supported they felt by the specialist services for dementia in their hospital. It is notable that the national view of the availability of support services out of hours is rated much more negatively (Figure 11) than support during office hours (Figure 10). Hospitals may wish to consider how they can improve the availability of this specialist support for staff during the night and at weekends. National Audit of Dementia Round 3 Good Hope Hospital 18

National sample (n=11207) and your hospital sample (n=43). Key recommendation: support for staff The Chief Executive Officer should ensure that there is a dementia champion available to support staff 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. This could be achieved through ensuring that people in roles such as Site Nurse Practitioners and Bed Managers have expertise in dementia care. National Audit of Dementia Round 3 Good Hope Hospital 19
22 Involving the person with dementia in decision making National data from England and Wales showed that in 34 of cases where a referral to a social worker was made for a proposed change in residence post discharge, consent from the person with dementia (or a best interests decision making process when the person did not have capacity to make this decision) is not recorded in the notes. To compare this national data with data from your hospital, please go to the discharge theme chapter (casenote audit, question 27). Key recommendation: Decision making The Safeguarding Lead should ensure that staff are trained in the Mental Capacity Act, including consent, appropriate use of best interests decision making, the use of Lasting Power of Attorney and Advance Decision Making. Training should cover supportive communication with family members/carers on these topics. The opinion of carers One of the key aims for this round of audit was to collect feedback from carers which could be compared across hospitals, and to ask them to rate the care that was received by the person they care for, while in hospital. Hospitals report taking steps to involve carers, including development of strategies for engaging carers and adopting the aims of John s Campaign (allowing a family carer to remain with a person with dementia and support them during admission). The carer questionnaire aimed to see whether carers themselves reported the same. Below are some key points from the carer questionnaire. Please also see your scores for overall carer rating of patient care, and carer rating of information and communication on page 10. At a national level, the most positively answered question on the carer questionnaire asked carers whether the person they look after was treated with respect of carers National average Was the person you look after treated with respect by hospital staff?, definitely, to some extent Figure 12: Carer perspective on whether the person with dementia was treated with respect.
