Quality Payment Workshop 3 Healthy Living Pharmacy and Level 2 Safeguarding
Agenda • 7.30 Domestics • 7.35 SCR • 7.45 Safeguarding • 8.05 HLP • 9.15 Close
SCR • How many of you have used SCR? • If you haven’t used SCR yet why?? • If are using SCR – what benefits have you seen? • Lets look at some case studies …………
SCR Case Study 1 • Patient presents for a Ventolin inhaler emergency supply and there already on your PMR system. Would you use the SCR and why? • Thoughts as to why you would • May have been stopped by the GP • May have just had a script issued and taken to another pharmacy • Could it have been used as a one off for a chest infection • Have they not received a script in the last 6 months and have been abusing the Emergency Supply system • You could be liable for causing patient harm if you didn’t access the record to obtain the full history for the patient prior to making the supply
SCR Case Study 2 • Middle aged son presents in pharmacy to request a decongestant for his poorly father (will not be able to give consent as he is deaf and unable to communicate on the phone) who is staying with him for the weekend. Do you access the record? • Thoughts on why you would • The patient isn’t present and cannot give you authority to access his SCR • You can access if it is in the best interest of the patient even if they cannot give consent • You would want to satisfy yourself as to what other medication the father is taking • You find out he is taking multiple anti-hypertensives • You could potentially be liable for causing patient harm if you did NOT access the record and subsequently sold a decongestant
SCR Case Study 3 • Patient presents in the pharmacy on a Saturday afternoon to collect a prescription. You normally collect these on behalf of the patient during the week but the script isn’t in the pharmacy. You are not sure whether it’s EPS or FP10, so would you check the SCR? • Thoughts on why you would • By reviewing the SCR you can confirm if a prescription has been issued • Once you know it has been issued you could also check the EPS Tracker • Once you know its has been issued, you could consider if an emergency supply is appropriate.
Safeguarding • Community pharmacy contractors passing the gateway criteria will receive a Quality Payment if they meet one or more of the Quality Payment criteria. • One of the Quality Payment criteria is: • ‘On the day of the review 80% of registered pharmacy professionals working at the pharmacy have achieved level 2 safeguarding status for children and vulnerable adults in the last two years.
Quality Payment criterion points and value • Number of review points at which it can be claimed Two • Points at any one review point 5 • Total points over the two review points 10 • Value of total points £640
Who is a Registered Pharmacy Professional? • Registered pharmacy professionals are pharmacists and pharmacy technicians.(NB Not Pre regs although good practice to get them to complete the training) • The Quality Payment requirement is that at least 80% of registered pharmacy professionals working at the pharmacy on the day of the review have undertaken the training and assessment within the last two years. • This includes locums, so contractors should encourage temporary staff, such as locum pharmacists, to undertake the training and assessment • Number of hours worked is irrelevant
Training • CPPE Safeguarding children and vulnerable adults e-learning and e-assessment meets the level 2 requirements. • Currently local Safeguarding training provided for Sexual health Services etc. does not meet criteria
CPPE Training • New Package • Better than old one – more user friendly • Takes about 2.5-3 hours to complete • Three E tests at end. • Will be level 1 tests shortly
Four Sections • Background to safeguarding children and vulnerable adults • Heightening awareness of abuse and neglect in children and vulnerable adults • Working together to safeguard children and vulnerable adults • Case Studies
Hints and Tips • Know your different laws e.g. what is statute and what is not, understand what the different bodies are responsible for. • As you only have limited time write notes of key pieces of information so you can refer to them quickly • When answering case studies keep in mind which one of these scenarios could end up with the person in A and E • Print your certificate and put in your evidence file in Pharmacy so readily available if you are inspected.
HLP Quality Payment • Summary – 20 points = approx. £1380 • Healthy Living Pharmacy level 1 (self-assessment) • Number of reviews – one
What is a HLP ? • The HLP concept provides a framework for commissioning public health services through three levels of increasing complexity and required expertise with pharmacies aspiring to go from one level to the next. • There are three levels of service delivery within the HLP framework: • Level 1: Promotion – Promoting health, wellbeing and self-care (in July 2016, Level 1 changed from a commissioner-led process to a profession-led self-assessment process); • Level 2: Prevention – Providing services (commissioner-led); and • Level 3: Protection – Providing treatment (commissioner-led).
HLP is an organisational development framework underpinned by three enablers of • : • workforce development – a skilled team to pro-actively support and promote behaviour change, improving health and wellbeing; • premises that are fit for purpose; and • engagementwith the local community, other health professionals (especially GPs), social care and public health professionals and local authorities.
Key requirements • Key requirements that must be met before becoming a HLP Level 1 • The following requirements must be met before a pharmacy can be registered as a HLP Level 1, therefore contractors should ensure that they meet the requirements before they start working their way through the quality criteria: • The pharmacy has a consultation room which is compliant with the Advanced Services standards and is appropriate for the services on offer; • In the past year, the pharmacy has participated in the provision of both (MURs) and (NMS), and has proactively engaged in health promoting conversations; • In the past year, the pharmacy has participated in the provision of the NHS Community Pharmacy Seasonal Influenza Vaccination Advanced Service or has actively referred patients to other NHS providers of vaccinations; • The pharmacy complies with the General Pharmaceutical Council’s Standards for Registered Premises and Standards of Conduct, Ethics and Performance; and • The pharmacy complies with the NHS Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework (CPCF) requirements.
Criteria • 27 Quality criteria need to be met • These criteria outline what is required for the assessment of compliance and set out the behaviours, activities and physical environment required. • Contractors must be able to provide evidence for each criteria. • There is suggested evidence in the documentation produced by NHS England. Contractors do not need to complete all the suggested evidence but they must be able to include one piece for each of the 27 criteria. One piece of evidence can be used to support more than one criterion if appropriate. • Certain pieces of evidence Are REQUIRED eg Healthy Living champion training (RSPH Level 2)/Leadership Training
Quality Criteria and Action Plan • Read through criteria and tick off the ones you already meet using the list on PharmOutcomesor use the PSNC workbook. • All the ones you need to collect evidence for or need actions to be taken agree with your team a written action plan of when and who is going to undertake the task.(This will form part of your evidence) • Remember to go back regularly to tick ones now achieved and review action plan • Avon LPC website has templates and information that will support you

Assessment of Compliance (Cont.) • Once submitted, a copy of the completed form will be sent to the pharmacy email address that the pharmacy professional provided in Part 3.
