'MUST do better'-our journey, to improving nutrition for everyone - a continuous cyclic, trust wide audit, of NICE Clinical Guideline 32.
Description: Our new approach to audit was going to be very different in order to effectively drive improvement. Every ward would be required to participate in repeated monthly audits with feedback shared at all levels. The message had gone out across the entire trust: Nutrition screening using the Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST) was a 'MUST do' for everyone and we MUST do better. The findings would highlight our weakness. It was a bumpy journey. Then the findings enabled good practice to be rewarded where screening and care planning was improving month on month. Wards became eager to demonstrate their compliance. High targets were set by our Trust board who took a vested interest every month without fail to scrutinise and challenge the results. Wards began to shine as their monthly compliance, with MUST screening for every patient, rose impressively.

(Update of) Care Home Support Team (CHST) - Reducing Falls
Description: The development of the Care Home Support Team (CHST) has provided a multi-disciplinary/multi-agency support and therapy service to Care Homes in Derbyshire. Access to patients in Care Homes is variable, in that the service relies on the knowledge of the care home staff to refer for appropriate services. Therefore early interventions and preventative measures are not common practice for this group of people. The CHST aims to address these discrepancies. This service offers an opportunity to improve the quality of care to residents in Care Homes and thereby reduce their risk of falls.

A Creative Approach to Embracing a Sizeable Piece (52 Recommendations) of NICE Guidance.
Description: This NICE guidance represents a very interesting challenge for two key reasons (1) On Wirral it is the NHS who mostly lead on baselining and action planning around NICE yet this particular guideline is largely non-clinical with many of the recommendations it makes requiring LA action. (2) The scope of the guidance (52 recommendations compared to a typical 6 -10) renders some of the normal local templates and procedures used in baselining not fit for purpose. Therefore a creative approach has been taken to baselining and action planning whereby a large number of stakeholders could feel genuinely engaged with the work on all 52 recommendations without attending an unrealistic amount of meetings.

A Local Experience: A Multi-Agency Partnership Approach to our NICE Implementation System
Description: North East Lincolnshire Care Trust Plus was formed in September 2007, a unique development, being the first in the country, to bring together health and social care under one organisation and providing an integrated Public Health function by transferring it to the Local Authority thereby facilitating influence on the wider determinants of health and well-being for our population. The challenge was to implement a systematic and robust system for the implementation of NICE guidance throughout the organisations involved in delivering primary health and social care whilst working alongside the local health economy.
