Issue - meetings

17.1     The Board considered a report providing an update on the progress with developing the ESBT Alliance Outcomes Framework.

17.2     In response to questions from the Board the following key points were made:

·         Once the CCGs release the last tranche of money from the Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) Transformation Grant, the CAMHS will be able to physically co-locate with other children’s Single Point of Advice services like health visiting advice and access to domestic abuse workers. The services currently have the same contact number but are not co-located.

·         The increase in the recorded number of people having to repeat their story is being monitored closely to see whether it develops into a trend or is a one off. If the trend continues there could be a need for more detailed analysis, including speaking with individuals about their experiences to see if there are any opportunities to make service changes.

17.3     The Board RESOLVED to:

1) Note the progress made with identifying and securing data to further understand our performance on a system-wide basis; and

2) Note the examples of how we can start to measure outcomes in the experience of local people domain on a system-wide and population basis, and the actions being taken with a view to improving outcomes.
