  6. New Survey – Inclusion Criteria • Client group Mental health problems relate to functional and organic mental illnesses which could be characterised by one or more symptoms which could include: disturbance of mood (e.g. depression, anxiety), delusions, hallucinations, disorder of thought, sustained or repeated irrational behaviour. • Include: persons assessed as having mental health problems whether or not the symptoms are being controlled by medical treatment. • Exclude: alcohol or drug related problems; dementia where this is not the primary reason for using the service

  7. New Survey – Inclusion Criteria(2) • Age group Every person aged 16 to 64, who receives a Mental Health service(s) with the primary reason for using the service being their mental health problem. • Funding The service being received or attended has to be funded by the Local Authority, the funding level is irrelevant. • Include: ADULT services only. • Exclude: any CHILD services.

  8. New Survey – Client data(1) • Local Authority code • Postcode – used to create geography variables and will be removed from the dataset used fro analysis • Gender • Ethnic Group • Client Group – to be used to record additional client groups for a client • Date of Birth – Month and year only

  9. New Survey – Client data(2) • UniqueID – must be unique to a particular client. This is either the ID used in the LA MIS or generated for the return. • MUST be consistent across all data returns (Home care & SDS) • MUST be repeatable overtime • Have no meaning to SG staff but allow LA’s to identify clients

  10. New Survey – Client data(3) • Items required if LA’s unable to link their own data • Surname • Forename • Full date of birth • All of these variables will only be used to link the data for a Local Authority, they will not be on the analysis dataset.

  11. New Survey – Individual level • Adult care homes - The person lives in a residential setting specifically for adults where a number of other people live (usually in single rooms) and have access to on-site care services. Must be registered with the Care Commission. • Care attached to accommodation - The person lives in a some type of accommodation which has support attached to it that helps them live independently. • Individualised provision - provided to client to provide services they require either as hours or budgets that are not paid into their bank accounts. • Short breaks/Respite care - Provided for a carer or a client without a carer.

  12. New Survey – Aggregated level • Aggregated data collected in a simple summary table • Other services – To include any other services that a Local Authority offers to Mental Health clients that are either new, have a large number of clients or large funding requirements.

  13. New Survey - Benefits • To measure a clients outcome we need to know what services a individual client has accessed/received. This can only be achieved by using individual level data. • Individual level data that has the potential to be • linked longitudinally, • to other SG data collections and • to Health & Housing data.

  14. New Survey - Concerns • Providing individual level to the SG • Data security • Data confidentiality • Need for fair processing notice https://www.scotxed.net/homecare/default.aspx • ProcXed provides a secure method of transferring and storing the data and is used currently by the Home care and SDS returns.
