Overview • Rationale for developing new model • What steps we have taken so far • New model • Challenges • Levers for change
Rationale for changing model • High prevalence of unhealthy lifestyle behaviours • Many people with multiple lifestyle issues • Wider health determinants - needs around debt, housing, learning, welfare reform • Relatively low levels of wellbeing • GPs wanted clear referral pathway • Local insight supported joined up approach
Lifestyle Pathway – 2010 • Number separate referrals • Single lifestyle behavior based support. • Limited cross referral. • Limited conversations and connnections to wider wellness support, (except through HT service).
Changing our model • SPOA 6mths pilot 2011 worked with 2 GP practices & lifestyle providers • Single referral form & system to Health Trainer Service • Full evaluation of the pilot, led to SPOA roll out to all GPs from Aug – Oct • Benchmarking / action plan using wellness standards • Lifestyle Service review meetings • Redesign of service model & new specification
IWS Model Client receives phone contact & brief intervention within 48 hours by hub, 6 wk follow up Holistic approach, joined up delivery, addresses multiple needs, person centered support, outcomes electronically fed back to GPs
Challenges • Embedding new system of working • Information sharing / duplication • Information system for Health Trainer Service • Information system across providers • New training needs • Pathways to services / support that are not PH commissioned services • Accessible and interactive website
Levers for Change • Public Health leadership • Effective Use of Services – HWB priority • Commitment to asset based working - JSAA • PMS GP contract – sign up to SPOA & follow new referral pathway • Involvement & relationship with lifestyle services • Re-design Health Trainer & community health service – new contract • 2 x CQUIN – Brief intervention training across frontline health staff, wellbeing training / hub • IWS ongoing piece of work
