Item Subject Action
13/67 Welcome & Apologies The apologies for absence were noted. The Chair advised that this is Brady Pohle’s last meeting as a governor of the Trust as he starts his new role as Head of Legal Services at the Royal Free Hospital in the new year. The Council and the Trust thanks him for his service and contribution to the Trust. The Council also welcomed new governor Cllr Robert Evans as the nominated governor from Bromley Council.
13/68 Declarations of Interest There were no declarations of interests raised.
13/69 Chair’s Action There was no chair’s action reported.
13/70 Minutes of Previous Meeting The minutes of the meeting held on 18 September 2013 and were approved as a correct record.
13/71 Matters Arising/Action Tracking The action tracker was noted.
13/72 Update on Integration Programme & Trust Performance Report The Council received the Trust’s performance report for month 7 and Roland Sinker (RS) presented an update on the integration programme. The following key points were noted: Integration Programme
RS and Simon Taylor are currently the senior responsible officers for the integration programme in the absence of Jacob West who is currently on secondment;
Enc. 1.4
3
Item Subject Action
Programme activity is being managed and monitored through the previously advised governance structure - by executives through the integrated steering group and King’s Executive weekly meetings, at board level through the Board Integration Committee and with continued support from Ernst & Young whilst the Trust fully implements its integration programme office;
There are four major overarching areas of work, clinical operations, workforce, governance and communications and corporate services;
In these broad areas sit a number of schemes and projects related to, for example, length of stay, culture, medical productivity;
Measuring cultural changes and shifts is not easy but as part of this process the Trust developed a survey with similar questions to those in the national staff survey;
The questionnaire was sent to colleagues across the organisation and the Trust received over 1000 responses;
Ernst & Young on behalf of the Trust also ran focus groups and the information from this is currently being analysed and will be triangulated with the feedback from the King’s in Conversation initiative and the staff survey;
The Trust would hold a senior management event next week to present the findings across the two sites and give these senior people time to respond to feedback about their particular areas;
The cultural changes are a key consideration for the Board and non-executive directors;
There are four areas of concern at the PRUH including, the emergency department (ED) pathway, getting the nursing establishment right, cultural change (medical leadership, incident reporting, whistleblowing etc.) and capacity;
Cross site working has not been without its challenge but staff can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Both sites are part of the same hospital and it will take time for people to fully get embed the changes; and
Issues with emergency pathway relates to not having sufficiently consistent medical leadership at the PRUH. At the Denmark Hill site, there are 15 ED consultants whilst there are only 3 at the PRUH.
In addition, there has been a change in the provider of the discharge process which has caused further challenges.
Enc. 1.4

Item Subject Action
Performance Reports
At the Denmark Hill site good performance is being made on cancer pathways but there are challenges with:
o Agreeing the winter pressure funding with commissioners;
o Meeting referral to treatment targets where it is hoped the Centenary Wing will alleviate some of the pressure on capacity;
o Healthcare acquired infection in particular c. difficile;
o Finances as a result of the inability to conduct income generating
activity because of the challenges with capacity taken up by emergency admissions.
The picture is much the same at the PRUH.
13/73 Francis Report Roland Sinker (RS) and Angela Huxham (AH) presented the latest report from the Francis Working Group (FWG). The following was raised and noted:
The working group has focused on 5/6 areas of work in an effort to address the key areas in the Francis Report;
The workstreams are making good progress, and these will revert to ‘business as usual’ from April 2014
The FWG considered some of the feedback from King’s in Conversation (KiC) and agreed that information should be fed back to staff via the Chief Executives Brief. KiC will be rolled out at the PRUH site. Finally that the combined organisation is very complex and would benefit from a structured transformation integration programme led by the Executive;
The roundtable KiC events were very good and some governors were disappointed they have not yet seen the results;
The work is not yet concluded, and information would be fed back at the appropriate time
The initiative was well executed and it is important to keep the momentum going and let staff know what are the next steps, what was said and the broader agenda; and
A statement will be sent to staff from the Chair and CEO.

13/74 Membership & Community Engagement (MCE) Committee Brady Pohle provided an update on the activities of the Membership and Community Engagement Committee and the recent meeting. He reported the following:
Following the acquisition the Trust is on track with achieving its membership targets;
The governor awareness session, suggested and endorsed by governors, was very successful; and
Andrew McCall has kindly agreed to take over as the Chair of MCE. The Council noted the verbal update from Brady Pohle and the supporting key discussion points and actions arising from the MCE meeting on held on 16 October 2013.
13/75 Strategy Committee
Chris North provided an update on the activities of the Strategy Committee and the recent meeting. He reported the following:
The Committee received a very useful presentation from Lambeth Clinical Commissioning Group around the integration of care; and
It was also useful to get a detailed presentation from the strategy team and the progress within KHP and the proposed merger discussions.
The Council noted the verbal update from Chris North and the supporting key discussion points and actions arising from the Strategy Committee meeting held on 24 October 2013.
13/76 Patient Experience and Safety Committee (PESC) Tom Duffy provided an update on the activities of the Patient Experience and
Safety Committee (PESC) and the recent meeting. It was noted that the
Committee heard there had been improvement in the phlebotomy service but
there is still more to be done. The physical transformation has improved
things for patients but there is still an issue in relation to EPR. TS agreed to follow-up on correspondence relating to the Phlebotomy Focus Group in which some governors were involved.
The Council noted the verbal update from Tom Duffy and the supporting key discussion points and actions arising from the PESC meeting on held on 22 October 2013.

13/77 Board Report to the Council of Governors, including KHP Update The Council received and noted the report from the Board of Directors presented by Tim Smart. The following key points were noted:
The Board is very grateful for the contribution of Governors in the acquisition and for the part they played in the current multi-site structure of the Trust;
The next steps for the Trust is to develop a robust transformation programme which takes full account of what the organisation looks like now – King’s 3.0;
The transformation programme will embrace the complexities of the new organisation and address the new challenges;
The healthcare system does not seem to fully understand the complexities of transforming a hospital in the current healthcare landscape;
It is intended that the KHP documents which were being produced in relation to ongoing discussions about potential merger would be shared with governors.
The KHP Partners’ Board also recognise that the governance structure of KHP needs to be refreshed and work in this area is underway. The development of the Academic Integrated Care Organisation is enabling KHP to give better effect to the integrated care agenda and real engagement with the community. This is a real issue for South London and Maudsley because 60% of its services are delivered through an integrated care pathway.
13/78 Trust Finance Report The Council received the Trust’s finance report for month 4 and noted the verbal update from Simon Taylor. The following was noted:
There are four areas of concern: o Income impacted by constraints on capacity and not being able
conduct elective work which is income generating. o Expending more monies to deal with winter pressures; o Temporary staff expenditure; and o Issue with drug spend as a result of increased activity.
Enc. 1.4
7
Item
Subject Action
The Trust has introduced additional capacity in the form of the Centenary Wing and two clinical decision units to help alleviate the pressures;
The Trust had submitted bids to the commissioners for additional income to address the winter pressure challenges;
Demand and the acuity of patients presenting at the Trust is driving the need for additional staff. The recruitment process for full time staff is progressing but with 4000 applications for jobs between October-November this will take time;
The Trust has plans in place to address these issues but the Board will consider alternate contingency plans next month;
The adverse financial movement relates to the Denmark Hill site predominately. The Trust budgets income based on seasonal variances but the demand on services has remained consistently high throughout the year;
As a precautionary measure, the Trust regularly takes deposits from fee paying private patients before they commence their treatment; and
There are currently three streams of recruitment to fill vacancies, in the new sites, resulting from internal transfers and ongoing divisional recruitment. Now that the Trust has circa 11,000 staff members it is time to centralise the recruitment process to ensure recruitment is done in the most effective and efficient way. The recruitment process since the engagement of Capita on 1 October has been more streamlined and it is promising that they are meeting KPIs. The Trust went through a thorough tender and review process for the outsourcing of the recruitment process to Capita. This was done in conjunction with 6 other Trusts.
13/79 Council of Governors Reports
13/79.1 Council Activity Report The Council noted update on council of governors’ activities since the last meeting on 18 September 2013.
13/79.2 Council Forward Plan The Council noted and approved the forward plan for 2014 subject to any comments sent to Nicky Hayes outside the meeting.

Item
Subject Action
13/80 Patient Complaints Jane Walters presented the patients complaints report to the Council of Governors. The following key points were raised and noted:
In 2012/13 there were circa (c.) 162,000 complaints about NHS services a year – 3000 per week;
The Trust receives c. 700 at its Denmark Hill site and c. 500 at its PRUH site per annum. This is in addition to 3500 contacts through the Trust’s PALs service and circa 25,000 sources of feedback from the patient surveys per annum;
The number of complaints at the PRUH has been historically high, but have fallen since the acquisition. The Trust has now established a PALs team on site and more issues are now being addressed through this service. The Trust should continue to publicise its PALs service to prevent issues being escalated to formal complaints unnecessarily.
There is a centralised complaints team and all serious complaints are escalated to executive directors;
The monthly patient experience report which details complaints is widely circulated;
The Trust is keen to learn from complaints so has invited patients to listening events, enshrined complaints management in staff training, screening patient video stories at Board meetings and regularly conduct trend analysis;
A Serious Incident Committee with membership from executive and non-executive board members has been established;
The Chief Operating Officer reads and signs off all patients complaints;
If appropriate/relevant Consultants also review patient complaints;
Reports on complaints are presented to the Patient Experience Committee and the Chair of the Governors’ PESC sits on the Committee;
The Trust will be publishing what it is learning from patient complaints on the website; and
The Trust is working on improving its response times and the Trust is also trying to address a large backlog of complaints from the PRUH.

Purpose of the Report:
Report to: Council of Governors Date of meeting: 05 March 2014 Presented By: Nicky Hayes, Lead Governor Subject: Governor Involvement and Engagement Report
Governors have a general duty to “to represent the interests of the members of the corporation as a whole and the interests of the public”. Monitor’s guidance for governors suggests the following key principles as the means for governors to represent the interest of members and the public:
Governors should seek the views of members and the public on material issues or changes being discussed by the trust.
Governors should feedback to members and the public information about the trust, its vision, performance and material strategic proposals made by the trust board.
Governors should try to make sure when they are communicating with directors of the trust that they represent the interests of members and the public rather than just their own personal views.
This report includes examples from some governors on the initiatives they have undertaken to engage with members and the public at external meetings and events. The report also provides the list of ongoing engagement activities provided by the Trust with which governors are encouraged to get involved. The Governor Membership and Community Engagement Committee is also taking the lead on governor-led initiatives to engage with members and the local community. Action required: Governors are asked to: 1. Note the report from fellow governors on their engagement activities; and
2. Consider and submit their interest in the opportunities for engagement and
involvement.

Andrew McCall Public Governor, Southwark North
Engagement activity, location and date
Healthwatch Southwark – Induction for volunteers
13 December 2013 from 09.30-12.30
1 Addington Square, Camberwell, SE5 0HF
Summary of the event attended
This was an induction/training session for a small group of Healthwatch volunteer representatives. They did not have an existing association with King’s.
Jessica Bush, Head of PPI, attended with me. Together we delivered a short presentation about King’s followed by a question and answer session.
Outcome and feedback from the engagement activity
The mix of a staff member and a governor went down well with the audience and the presentation had been pitched at the right level for the occasion.
I have similar engagement activity planned at Southwark Cathedral and Friends of Burgess Park.

Fiona Clark Public Governor, Lambeth North
Engagement activity, location and date
Local Groups concerned with healthcare:
Healthwatch Lambeth, regular open meetings
Lambeth Clinical Commissioning Group, bi-monthly meetings in public
The Citizens’ Forum for Southwark and Lambeth Integrated Care, four meetings a year
The Friends of Monkton Street Rehabilitation Centre, the Committee meets 4/5 times a year with an AGM and Open Meeting for the Friends.
Local Community Groups in Kennington area:
The Kennington Association, various meetings
The Kennington, Oval and Vauxhall Forum, four meetings a year
The Friends of Kennington Library, monthly meetings
Summary of the event(s) attended
I have lived in Kennington for over 35 years and go to several local groups to find out what is happening.
I find that attendance at any of the community and health organisations leads to contacts and conversations in smaller groups or in the street and on buses.
There is always an opportunity to ask questions at the meetings I go to.
Outcome and feedback from the engagement activity
It is not possible to attend every meeting concerned with health matters but when I can go it is helpful because I meet and talk with lots of people: the GPs, the local councillors, social service personnel and ordinary citizens with a story to tell.
I can then use this feedback to inform myself of the views and experiences people have of local health, disability and social services and, sometimes, of King’s College Hospital.
I tell people that I am a governor at King’s and talk about what that involves. I take membership forms with me and if they are not a member will suggest they become one.
Attendance at the community events frequently leads to more involvement, for example, helping at the bazaars for the Kennington Association, doing the food for the library meetings or the members meetings at Monkton Street etc.

Membership & Community Engagement Committee Key discussion points & actions arising from the meeting on
23 January 2014
Issue Discussion Point/Action Lead
Committee Work Plan and Targets for 2014
Andrew McCall (AM) introduced himself as Committee Chair having taken over the position from Staff Governor Brady Pohle who left the Trust earlier this month. The Committee discussed the draft committee work plan and suggested targets. It was agreed that each meeting should have a focus on: Membership engagement, engagement with public, governors in the community and learning from other organisations. All elements are important and reflect changes to the governor role brought about by the Health & Social Care Act 2012 and the remit of this committee It was noted that the Trust will continue to provide opportunities, for example, through listening events and member focus groups as part of governor workshops, but governors should feel encouraged to create further ‘touch points’ by using their own networks and links with community organisations. The Committee agreed that in future, where opportunities for membership recruitment and/or raising awareness of the Trust have been identified and acted on, information about the outcome would be captured and presented to the Council in order to provide an example and encouragement (see Enc. 2.2 in this set of papers). The confirmed committee work plan for 2014 would be circulated to all governors with a note from AM encouraging more governors – particularly form the new constituencies - to join the committee.

Rachel Sugarman presented a summary of membership numbers, changes and recruitment activity for the period 01 October 2013 to 01 January 2014. The Committee noted that overall the number of members has increased from 8,608 to 10,789 and the majority of new members were recruited via a direct mail sent to circa. 30,000 PRUH patients. Now that the Trust has met its targets for members in the new constituencies, the focus will be on consolidating the membership by offering more activities for members to get involved with, increasing work with schools and colleges e.g. Bromley College, and collecting and promoting the use of email addresses.

Election Update & New Governors’ Induction Programme
Tamara Cowan updated the Committee on the concluding stages of the current elections, plans for the summer elections and the induction programme for new governors. Voter turnout currently stands at 29% and 20.5% in Bromley and Lewisham respectively. There were 45 candidates for the four Bromley seats and 4 for the Lewisham seat.
Constructive feedback was received from the governor awareness session held on 28 November 2013. Participants particularly appreciated the honest depiction of the time commitment involved in being a governor.
The Trust intends to maintain contact with those candidates who are unsuccessful this time. They may be good candidates for 'Member Ambassadors' or similar.
A note inviting governors to be part of the buddying scheme will be circulated to all governors.

Report on Community Engagement Activity
AM introduced this item as a new, regular feature of the committee agenda so that committee members can report back on any engagement activity they have undertaken since the last meeting. AM reported that he had attended a meeting at Southwark Healthwatch on 13 December 2013 to deliver a presentation to an audience of volunteer representatives who did not have an existing association with the Trust followed by a question and answer session (see Enc. 2.2 in this set of papers).
AM and Fiona Clark reflected on their experience of becoming involved in community engagement, noting that it’s easy and that some governors are already doing it but perhaps don’t realise it e.g. attending the Integrated Care Citizens Board or talking informally with people they know in the community.
It was also noted that support and presentation materials are available on request – governors just need to contact a member of the team for help – and that community engagement is an essential part of fulfilling the governor duty to ‘represent the interests of members and the interests of the public’, as outlined under the 2012 Health & Social Care Act.
Community Events Planning
Sally Lingard (SL) presented an outline for two community events to be held on 25 February and 05 March 2014. Governors will be asked to attend to participate in the round-table discussions.

Denmark Hill Station Update
JB1 reported that he had received a response from Mark Ellerby about the points raised at the last TFG meeting in relation to the outstanding improvement works at the Denmark Hill station. The following points were noted:
The cafe is due to be completed and opened in early March 2014;
The redevelopment plan for taxi office and taxi waiting area did not progress and instead the cafe has been reconfigured to allow it to serve customers on both the public and station sides of the station;
Currently, there are no plans or funds identified for provision of additional public toilets at the station and an additional station entrance on Windsor walk. However, getting additional ticket machines at the front of the new station building is being investigated; and
The issue in relation to the problems that Freedom Pass users have when trying to access the station through the barriers before 09:30am should be raised to southeastern customer care services.
The Group noted the response and suggested that a user group survey and review of the Denmark Hill station should be carried out.
JB1
Transport Links Between Sites
JG updated the Group on the transport links between sites. The following key points were noted:
The shuttle bus service runs between 08:15 and 17:30 with an hour gap during lunch times;
The lunch break gap is not satisfactory as it is a peak travel use by staff. The Head of Logistics has been informed and they will look into revising the timetables; and
The Facilities team will carry out a 6 monthly review of the shuttle service, which will include negotiating with alternative providers and reviewing the shuttle service timetables. The review will take place in consultation with the staff.
Wider Transport Issues and Impact on the Trust
Bakerloo Line Update The Group discussed the possibility of the Bakerloo line extension to Camberwell. It was noted that the feasibility study on Bakerloo Line extension is still not available. The Group agreed to focus and carry out alternative campaigns on transports coming into Camberwell and keep a watch in brief on Bakerloo Line. The alternative campaign data may also help with specific future transport links into Camber well. South-eastern December 2014 Timetable Consultation The Group discussed the Southeastern 2014 Timetable Consultation, in particular section 5 of the proposal which affects Denmark Hill services. The Consultation proposes to:
Enc 2.3.1 Appendix

Issue Discussion Point/Action Lead
Operate additional services between Dartford and Victoria via Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill at 30 minute intervals later into the evening; and
Stop the hourly off-peak Victoria – Gillingham – Dover stopping services at Denmark Hill to enhance connections into the London Overground and Thameslink Routes.
The Group agreed for JG to write a feedback by 07 February 2014 to welcome and fully support the proposals pertinent to Denmark Hill, as it would provide benefit to staff, patients and families travelling to the hospital, enhancing accessibility as well as offering more choice and ease of journey. Loughborough Junction Services AB reported that Network Rail had proposed that from 2018 all services in the Sutton loop line running through Loughborough Junction station, would terminate at Blackfriars instead of continuing north to St Albans and Luton. However, the central government has over-ruled this proposal and now the trains will continue further north. There is also a proposal to increase the number of Thames Link trains going through Elephant Castle from 8 services per hour to 16 services per hour. The 7 Bridges project to regenerate the area is being planned. This is an arts led regeneration project focusing on improving the appearance of the Loughborough Junction’s many railway bridges through art installations, colour, light and community engagement. AB will enquire from Network Rails about their plans to install a lift at Loughborough Junction. Currently, the disabled, people with buggies, travellers with suitcases are often limited to use the station without a lift.

Any Other Business
Active Travel Plan JB1 reported that the funding that was received as part of the London 2012 Olympic legacy would be used to launch the Active Travel Project. The aim of this project is to change travel behaviours and promote cycling and walking. Part of the funding will be used to help active travel champions with training and mentoring events. The champions would be provided with resources to promote active travel within their local communities and organisations. Active Champions could also be contacted to help carry out travel surveys and reviews of the local travel sites. Preventative Care Initiative JB1 informed the Group that full support from Public Health England and NHS England have been received to support the initiative of preventative care and review people’s lifestyles for healthier living. JB1 will involve partner organisations to promote preventative care initiatives within their organisations and communities.

Issue Discussion Point/Action Lead
Trust-wide Strategic Matrix Q3
David Dawson presented the Trust’s Strategic Matrix for quarter 3 which outlined Trust-wide and divisional strategic priorities. The Committee noted that the Trust had held consultation events regarding selection of quality priorities for the year 2014/15. It was also noted that significant progress has been made with developing and implementing an evidence-based care bundle for the care of patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. The Trust is acting as host for the Collaboration for Leadership in Applied and Health service Research and Care (CLAHRC). This project mixes social and clinical research and aims to translate research into practical care models. Professor Irene Higginson, Assistant Director of Research, will be driving the CLAHRC and working to ensure that the Trust has a robust R&D strategy. George Alberti summarised the on-going discussions between the Trust and Guy’s and St Thomas’s regarding the configuration of vascular services.
Strategic Issues Joe Farrington-Douglas outlined current key issues for the Trust’s strategy. The Committee noted that for the Trust will submit a five-year strategy to Monitor. Major strategic issues will be considered in consultation with KHP partners and colleagues in the local health economy as part of the preparation for developing the five-year strategy. Projecting the Trust’s financial and operational needs over the next five years highlights the importance of making strategic decisions based around sustainability, which may include alternative models of funding.
Strategic Planning for Change
Pedro Castro outlined the Trust’s process for strategic planning in 2014. The Committee noted that the Trust will conduct an internal assessment of its emergency and specialist services and commissioning contracts in order to develop a revised strategic vision, that takes into account system pressures, institutional changes and a ‘do nothing’ scenario. Co-ordination with partner organisations and consultation with internal and external stakeholders will be part of the process and one of the deliverables will be a transformational plan and process for achieving the vision. It was noted that there is scope for governor involvement through community events, this committee and the Council of Governors.

Quality Report & Priority Development
JB presented the draft quality report which included a review of performance for the 2013/14 quality priorities and outlined the quality priorities for 2014/15.
It was noted that:
All the priorities for 2013/14 were achieved and on target apart from ‘surgical safety checklist’ and ‘improving patient experience of discharge’. These will be carried as priorities for 2014/15;
The Trust held 2 Stakeholder Events in Bromley and Lambeth/Southwark to invite comments and suggestions from the stakeholders on the 2014/15 priorities;
The following priorities have been proposed for 2014/15:
Improving the identification and management of patients at risk of falling in hospital;
Improving surgical safety checklist;
Improving experience and coordination of discharge;
Improving the experience of cancer patients;
Maximising King’s contribution towards reducing mortality due to use of alcohol; and
Improve the experience of patients with hip fracture/ hip and knee replacement.
The draft report will be considered again by the Stakeholders and it will be presented at the next Council of Governors on 05 March 2014. The final report will be presented to the Board for approval in May 2014 as part of the Annual Report and Accounts before its submission to Monitor in June 2014.
The Committee noted the report and commented that ensuring different ways to measure improvements are essential.
Improving patient experience on the Acute Medical Units (AMU)
Vanessa Sweeney, Head of Nursing for Acute Medicine updated the Committee on the Trust’s approach to improve patient experience in the Acute Medical Units (AMUs).
Key points included:
Following the review of patient experience in January 2013 and the analysis of various data, a number of initiatives and interventions were put in place to improve patient experience in acute wards;
Enc 2.3.3
2 of 2
Issue Discussion Point/Action Lead
These included a number of changes in the acute medicine pathway such as:
Introduction of patient experience CQUIN;
Using Volunteers to help capture real-time patient experience;
Supporting staff to deliver compassion in practice; and
Revising nursing levels in line with the increasing acuity and dependency of patients.
Key outcomes included reducing the number of steps in patient pathway, daily nursing rounds to maintain and deliver care with compassion, minimal ward moves for patients, better quality of ward rounds with ward based consultants and senior admin support for junior doctors.
The committee commended all the improvement initiatives and highlighted that the outcomes from this review would be fundamental in improving patient experience. The Committee suggested that learnings from this review should be considered and rolled out in other areas around the Trust.
Cultural Integration (incorporating King’s in Conversation)
Angela Huxham, Mary Currie and Kristen Nelson provided a detailed summary of the findings from the King’s in Conversation (KiC) and the Cultural Integration Programme across sites. Key points included:
Under the “all together better” banner there are 3 key projects, the King’s in Conversation (KiC), Cultural Integration Programme and the Staff Survey;
The KiC listening events included a number of round table discussions and pop-up sessions with staff and patients to have their say and raise issues;
Overall, staff are very proud to work in Denmark Hill and eager to do well for both patients and staff. Patients praised staff for kindness, taking time to listen, empathy, etc.;
The Cultural Integration Project involved undertaking a base line assessment of culture across all sites. 1500 responses have been received and the feedback has been shared with senior managers;
Additionally, a survey based on the national staff survey is also being launched at the PRUH site;
A number of opportunities for improvement were identified and categorised into 12 key themes, which are then split into granular level to plan and implement actions. Making patient care the number one target was one of the main areas to improve on across all sites; and
The 3 key areas of focus that has been identified by the Trust’s Board Integration Committee (BIC) and given priority are doctors and managers working effectively together, promoting positive behaviour and performance and empowering staff to take confidence in decisions.
The Committee noted the reports and suggested that a mechanism or an appropriate forum should be identified for Governors to continue their involvement in these initiatives.
Governor Involvement Updates
JB outlined continuing opportunities for Governor involvement and thanked those already taking part in various initiatives.
Governors are invited to be a patient assessor for this year’s Patient Led Assessments of the Care Environment (PLACE). This is an excellent opportunity for Governors to improve hospital environment. Interested Governors should inform JB in the first instance.

Board of Directors’ Report to the Council of Governors
05 March 2014 | Introduction
Today we are holding our first Council of Governors meeting in Bromley and I am delighted to welcome in particular our newly elected staff and public governors. A significant amount has been achieved since 01 October. King’s College Hospital is a different organisation, an expanded organisation, but with the same core values and approach to patient care as before. One of our key values is ‘Understanding You’ and another is ‘Inspiring Confidence in our Care’. Both of these require us to value diversity. Our new membership and their representatives have added to the richness of King’s in this regard. The past year has been enormously testing, financially and operationally, and we know that next year will be no different. We also know that other foundation trusts are facing similar challenges because of system pressures nationally. Thinking carefully about our strategic priorities and putting energy into maintaining relationships with key stakeholders are essential part of navigating our way to long-term sustainability. As ‘critical friends’, governors play an important role in guiding the organisation and acting as conduits between foundation trust members and the Board to ensure that the decisions we make place the highest value on patient care and interests. The Board looks forward to lively discussion at the Board to Council meeting on 19 March and to working with you all throughout 2014/15. | Key Strategic Issues
1. Strategic Forward Plan
A key piece of work currently underway is the development of our forward strategic plan. This year our regulator, Monitor, requires all foundation trusts to submit a five-year strategy. We are now one hospital across multiple sites with a staff of approximately 11,000 and in recent meetings the Board have been giving serious thought to long-term sustainability as part of our forward plan.
Internal assessment of our services and research endeavours will be one of our starting points. Learning from the internal incident at the Denmark Hill site and the planned ‘Safer, Faster Hospital Week’ at the Princess Royal University hospital (PRUH) will also inform our thinking. There is undoubtedly a rising demand for our services and we cannot keep doing everything. Working closely with our commissioner colleagues and partner organisations will help us to make the best choices in order to remain sustainable, and to deliver safe, high quality care.
Board members were pleased to see a good turnout at the community meeting held on 25 February and to have the opportunity to hear at first hand the views of members. This is a valuable part of the process and on behalf of the Board I would like to thank those governors and members who participated.
2. King’s Health Partners
As governors who have been with us for a while will understand, King’s Health partners and our relationship with our partner organisations have an important bearing on our academic, strategic and operational future.
Enc. 3.1
Board Report to CoG 05 March 2014 3
Clinical Academic Groups continue to develop and work together across their respective organisations. The KHP Partners Board met last month to reach agreement on a governance structure to take forward discussions about producing a full business case for closer integration. We are aware of the uncertainties around the competition and regulatory issues for integrations or mergers of this kind and so it will be necessary to put forward the strongest possible patient benefits case. Site configuration will be a key part of the preparations and there is a need for KHP to become ever more relevant to staff and patients.
3. Integration and Culture Change
Integration of our multiple sites continues under the direction of the programme management office. We are working through issues which were identified as part of the due diligence process prior to the acquisition, plus additional issues which have arisen in the past five months. The challenge of extremely tough cost improvement plans looms large alongside the maintained focus on driving productivity and recruiting safe levels of skilled and qualified staff to all of our sites and new developments. We are working hard to integrate, re-configure and develop all of our sites and this important integration work will continue alongside long-term planning and projections. Feedback has been collected from the anonymous staff survey which was rolled out across all sites towards the end of 2013 and the programme of listening events has continued in early 2014. From this information, the Board is developing an understanding of what steps need to be taken to strengthen the organisation from this point on. A culture change programme has been initiated focussing on three core areas: doctors and managers working effectively together; promoting positive behaviours and performance; and empowering staff to take confident decisions.
4. Progress with Capital Projects
The Trust now has three estates to maintain and with demand for additional capacity rising there are a number of projects in progress to build new facilities and improve existing ones in order to enhance the environment for patients and staff and to improve efficiency. PRUH infrastructure - There have been some problems recently with heating and back-up power at the PRUH. Works are being undertaken to address legacy issues of resilience and reliability in the mechanical and electrical services.
Clinical Decision Unit, PRUH – A new clinical decision unit is to be delivered in early March to help address operational and capacity problems. Enabling works are underway and there will be an accelerated build programme to deliver the building for occupational use as soon as possible. Training & Development Centre, PRUH – Plans are underway for the procurement of a five-storey modular build which connects to the Education Centre and replaces the existing two-storey portakabin. Orpington Hospital – Phase 2 of the development programme is underway. Two additional external modular theatres are planned plus expansion of Ontario ward to provide additional beds and seminar facilities on-site. Analysis of capacity and
Enc. 3.1
Board Report to CoG 05 March 2014 4
demand will be undertaken for a potential phase 3 of works, which would include reconfiguration of reception plus a kitchen and canteen. Infill Block 5, Denmark Hill - A feasibility study is being undertaken to ascertain the most appropriate location for this major new development which will be designed to provide a range of facilities, wards and departments. One possible solution is units 7 and 8 in the business park. New Critical Care Unit, Denmark Hill – Enabling works have commenced and some demolition works are taking place to enable excavation for the new build foundations. The tower crane has been delayed due to ground obstructions but is expected to be installed in March.
| Current Operational Challenges
5. Operational Performance
Both the Denmark Hill and PRUH sites were extremely busy over the winter and remain so. Much of this is driven by the increase in people attending our two emergency departments (ED) and requiring admission. Last winter saw an increase in emergency admissions of 15%. This year they increased by a further 11%. The emergency care 4-hour waiting time target was not achieved at either the Denmark Hill or PRUH site in quarter 3 (October-December) or in the first month of quarter 4 (January). Non-achievement of this target is consistent with the Trust’s annual plan submission to Monitor; however, management of performance in this area is one of the Trust’s top priorities and from 20-31 January an internal incident was declared at the Denmark Hill site. This enabled a strong focus to be placed on key areas of Trust performance and for care to be delivered more quickly in the most appropriate setting. Outcomes included improved emergency care performance and a reduction in inappropriate admissions and cancelled elective procedures. The performance of the PRUH ED has been on a downward trajectory for some time, with the exception of a spike in June/July 2013. Emergency activity continues at very high levels and performance is challenging. From 07-14 March we will be launching ‘Safer, Faster Hospital Week’ at the PRUH, which is a planned week of heightened activity for the purpose of learning, like January’s internal incident at Denmark Hill. Learning from both incidents will help us to identify the respective strengths and weaknesses of each hospital and will be used to sustain best practice and further improve the way we work to ensure that patients flow quickly and safely through the hospital alleviating pressure on beds wherever possible. Two further cases of MRSA and two of C-difficile were attributed to the Denmark Hill site in January taking year to date totals to seven and 42 respectively. Full root cause analyses will be conducted. Concerns remain around the increase in cases of CRE and other multi-resistant organisms. Whilst no further cases of MRSA have been attributed to the PRUH, a further 10 cases of C-difficile have been reported in January and February. Infection Prevention and Control governance structures are being re-instated. Providing encouragement is the improved section scores and response targets for the ‘How are we doing?’ patient experience survey at both the Denmark Hill and PRUH sites. The increase in workload from 01 October has impacted the backlog of complaints and response times. At both sites the number of complaints received has
Enc. 3.1
Board Report to CoG 05 March 2014 5
increased between December and January; however, since the Trust took responsibility of the PRUH in October 2013 the rate of complaints has almost halved.
6. Financial Performance
In summary, at the end of month 10 (January) the consolidated financial position of the Trust across all sites and services had an operational deficit position of £5.773m, against a planned year to date surplus of £3.135m. This is an adverse variance from plan of £8.908m. Monitor’s continuity of service risk (CSR) rating is intended to flag the risk of insolvency over the next 12-18 months on a scale of one to four, with the lowest rating signifying the highest level of concern. At month 10 the Trust has been rated 3, which is in line with the CSR forecast in the annual plan. There are several reasons behind the adverse financial position and these are closely linked to clinical and operational strategies. One key driver is the inability of the Trust to complete elective procedures due to a lack of capacity. The drop in cancelled elective activity during the internal incident at Denmark Hill had a positive effect on the financial position. A total of £8.6m in non-recurring winter pressure income has been secured. This will help with 2013/14 costs, but the projected CIP target for 2014/15 will be very challenging. The finance team are working closely with divisions to develop savings plans for the new financial year and a two-year financial plan will be submitted to Monitor on 04 April.
7. Care Quality Commission Inspection of the PRUH
The Care Quality Commission (CQC) has now published its quality report on the PRUH. It can be found on the CQC website and I would encourage you all to read it: Princess Royal University Hospital | Care Quality Commission It makes difficult reading on the one hand, but it is encouraging in that it endorses the plans that we developed as part of the acquisition plan. In particular the report praises the work of the nursing teams. On 30 January we participated in a Quality Summit to discuss the outcome of the inspection and the draft report. On 06 February the final report was published highlighting areas of good practice and areas requiring improvement. There is a series of compliance actions to address the essential standards of quality and safety that were not being met when the inspection took place. We are required to submit to the CQC a report outlining the actions we are going to take to meet these essential standards. I was invited to provide some feedback on the pilot phase of the CQC’s new inspection regime. I felt it was valuable to share our thoughts and experience of the pilot with the Chief Inspector of Hospitals and to hear from representatives from other trusts.
| Review of the Last Quarter
Throughout the year members of the Board are pleased to attend the various events held here to engage members, staff and the local community with our work. We also spread the word through the wider media. These are a few of the highlights from the past three months:
Enc. 3.1
Board Report to CoG 05 March 2014 6
On Monday 23 December the BBC news and the Daily Mirror covered a trial being led by King’s College Hospital, which is the first of its kind outside of the US, to treat an aggressive form of brain cancer. Professor Linda Cardozo, Consultant Gynaecologist, was listed in the Daily Telegraph’s article on the New Year’s Honours list on 03 January. She was awarded an OBE in for services to urogynecology and women’s health. We welcomed the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall to our Denmark Hill site on 23 January. The visit attracted widespread media coverage in print, on TV and online. On Friday, 31 January the South London Press reported on delays in our Emergency Departments, citing 38 people waiting more than 12 hours to be found a bed on a ward. In our response, we made clear that all of these extended waits occurred at the PRUH, a service which we took over in October and were working hard to improve. Between 03 and 14 February governors and directors took part in dignity visits as part of Dignity Month 2014. During visits to various parts of the hospital, staff presented their achievements and proposals for dignified care from the patient perspective. An article in the Bromley News Shopper on Wednesday, 5 February highlighted how our new orthopaedic centre in Orpington has been praised for its standard of care by the first patients to have been treated at the newly refurbished facility. On Tuesday 25 February the first of two community meetings took place to give members an opportunity to hear about the Trust’s strategic vision and to input into the five-year strategy.

Month 10 Executive Financial Summary
Financial Key issues:
The Trust is reporting an operating deficit of £5.773m year to date excluding the asset impairment accrual of £6.3m. The Continuity of
Service Risk Rating is 3. The rating has dropped from a 4 to 3 due to the increased debt coverage required in quarter 3 as a result of
including the PRUH PFI liability.
The annual surplus target for the year is £2m excluding the non-operating asset impairment cost of £8m for the year. The phased operating
surplus for the plan for month 10 is £3.135m and therefore the Trust is £8.908m adverse from plan. The adverse movement in month is
£325k.
There were unplanned material adverse movements in Surgery (£1m) and Neurosciences (£1.2m) in month 10. The adverse variance
movements are due to the financial trading loss at Orpington (£2m to date since October);off-site working (£0.5m in month) and increasing
agency use for nursing staff (£0.33k in month). The reduced activity levels on Murray Falconer (Neuro) have also contributed to a reduction
in income. Liver Division (£1m) is due to income falling below the projected forecast level. Critical Care (£1m) (Income £0.6m and agency
nursing £0.423m) also moved adversely against forecast. See pages 23 - 24. PFI and Facilities budget was overspent in month by
£0.75m (page 24) due to contract variations.
These unplanned movements were covered by contingency reserves in month 10 and additional income through the Project Diamond work
stream.
The year-projection will deteriorate further than expected unless the Orpington site is utilised to its full potential, off-site working is stopped
across the Trust and the agency/medical locum spend is curtailed through recruitment and strict usage controls.
The winter pressure income of £8.6m has been secured and will cover the 13/14 costs committed on a non-recurring basis.

Month 10 Executive Financial Summary
The Trust has now received the draft accounts from the TDA ‘SLHT’ Legacy Office for the first six months of the year to 30 September 2013
and is currently reviewing these figures. Any adverse impact on the financial position should be recovered through the capped indemnity
agreed with the TDA.
Potential cost pressures include differences in stock valuations on transfer (£0.5m), PRUH asset site valuations and accounting treatments
of the PFI. The Trust has received draft valuations of all Trust sites as at 31 March 2014. These indicated an overall increase in the value of
the properties and as such, the estimated annual impairment cost is expected to be lower than forecast at year end. The higher asset
valuations will, however, result in a cost pressure to the Trust in relation to PDC Dividends (£1m).
Contract income over-performance
As at month 10, the LSL contract over-performance position is £13m and the NHSE over-performance position is £16.2m. The BBG CCG
contract income level is capped for the PRUH and a financial control total regarding income over-performance has been agreed with LSL
CCG. The Trust has received confirmation of the Project Diamond funding (£2.6m) and the R&D MFF income (£0.7m). This is transitional
funding and will eventually be wrapped up in PbR prices for 15/16.
The number of elective patient spells are still above last years phased outturn; which are partly driving the income over-performance (see
page 18). However the medical outliers are still adversely impacting on the potential income of the Trust (see page 19 and 20). The Trust is
potentially under performing against income by £1.8m per year due to General Medicine patients outlying in other wards.
Operating Expenses
Medical and Nursing staff costs are still over-spending due to locums and agency staff to cover vacancies and to meet the increasing
patient activity levels, patient acuity and vacancies.
Critical Care, TEAM, Liver and Neurosciences are the key areas of concern (see page 25 and 26). There is still an upward trend despite
the recruitment plans.
Year-to-date Trust-wide expenditure for off-site working is £5.85m.
The drugs expenditure is £11m over-spent to date and there has been a steep increase in usage since July (see pages 27-31). This is due
to additional off-tariff drug expenditure of £6.7m and a greater usage in general drug expenditure across all divisions.
The Trust Reference Costs (see page 35) indicate that the Trust’s cost base is in line with peer London teaching hospitals.
Cost improvement Programme
The overall achievement to date is 70% against plan. The CIP value achieved to date is £10.567m and income generation is £14.686 (see
page 32). A key concern is the current level of RED RAG rated CIP schemes for both KCH and the PRUH. A contingency reserve was
established to mitigate the KCH schemes and the remaining gap should be covered by additional activity capacity coming on line. There
are a number of PRUH schemes that have now been deemed unachievable by the Division’s and this is a concern going into next year.
This will put pressure on the Trust to achieve synergy CIPs earlier than planned.

Month 10 Executive Financial Summary
Capital and Cash
The capital plan is over-committed by £10.6m primarily due to 4 schemes; the delivery of the Orpington Hospital development in quick
time to meet the capacity pressures (building works £1.5m and equipment & IT £2.5m), a further £2m re-phasing on the Energy
Performance Scheme, upgrading of Christine Brown ward (£1.5m) and general Medical Equipment purchases and replacements
(£2.3m). A capital development strategy is under review to meet future requirements and within the available resources.
The 2 major capital development schemes impacting on the future capital plan are the new Helideck (£5m) and Infill Block 5 (£50m). A
business case will be submitted to the TDA in the next 2-3 weeks and will require commissioner support.
Outstanding debts from NHS England currently total £18.644m (including Integration support £5.8m, Over-performance £7m and
Project Diamond funding £2.6m). Outstanding CCG SLA and SLA over-performance debts total £19.241m. This will not impact on the
risk rating but will generate a delay in payments to creditors.
The Trust has received the PRUH PDC transactional funding (£23m) and part payment of the revenue integration funding from NHSE
(£17.07m).
Operational Planning 2014/15
The strategic and operational planning timetable is condensed into a much tighter timescale for 14/15; requiring a two year financial
plan by 4th April as opposed to the end of May as in previous years. This will overlap with the year-end close down timetable and
generate additional pressure on divisional management structures and corporate departments; particularly with the PRUH transaction.
The projected cost improvement target for 14/15 is £71.9m. This is a challenging target due to the projected deficit carried forward,
FYE of nursing investments and the FYE of funding the winter pressure schemes through the operational plan. The winter pressure
income is non-recurring and this will be a key funding issue outside of the PBR tariff rules with the Commissioners. The QIPP
challenge has yet to be disclosed by the CCG’s and NHSE.
The Lambeth and Southwark CCGs are proposing a block contract for 14/15 which includes funding for winter pressure schemes on a
recurring basis (£4.5m); but includes a QIPP of £6m. RTT activity backlog will be built into the contract as well as growth for the
additional Critical Care capacity. Other CCG and NHSE contracts will be based on last year’s outturn and the usual cost and volume
rules will apply. Discussions continue with NHSE and Bromley CCG regarding winter pressure funding on a recurring basis (£6m FYE).
The financial plan will be dependant on national winter pressure funding as per 13/14 (£3.9m).

Month 10 Capital Summary
Capital Plan
• The annual budget for 2013/14 has been reduced from £52.586m to £27,164m due to the re-phasing of the Critical
Care Unit (£25.422m) between 13/14 and 14/15. In 13/14, £9.560m for the Critical Care Unit is to be funded by the
loan received from the Foundation Trust Financing Facility.
• £1.024m of the Capital Plan will be funded by charitable donations, £3m is funded by an Energy Grant from the
Department of Health Energy Fund, with the remaining being funded by internal Trust resources such as
Depreciation. The £3m budget for Orpington major works is funded by SLHT.
Forecast Capital Expenditure
• Forecast capital expenditure for 13/14 has increased by £10.685m against the Trust’s Annual Plan budget. Below is
the breakdown of the changes to date.

Executive Summary (1/5)
1. Denmark Hill 2013-14 Key Areas of Performance for Month 10:
1.1 Good Performance
Access Targets – Cancer waiting time targets have been achieved for January despite the challenging
pressures on inpatient beds during the month, and the Referral to Treatment (RTT) non-admitted
completed pathways and RTT Incomplete pathway targets have also been achieved for January.
Patient Experience – HRWD Patient survey section scores improved for January, and response targets
have been achieved in all 3 sections for Care Perceptions, Patient Engagement and Environment.
Length of Stay (LOS) – The Elective LOS target of 4.7 days was achieved for the first time since setting
the stretch target 2 years ago with an average elective LOS at 4.6 days in January, with a notable
reduction in LOS in Surgery to 2.6 days.
1.2 Performance challenges – 5 Areas
RTT Admitted – The RTT Admitted pathway target of 90% was not achieved in January with 87.8% of
patients admitted within 18 weeks, consistent with the Trust plans submitted to Monitor. Whilst the
incomplete pathway target was narrowly achieved for January, the Trust is behind the revised backlog
trajectory position of 1,223 by 525 patients to reduce the number of patients waiting over 18 weeks.
Emergency Care Performance – The Emergency Care 4-hour performance target of 95% was not
achieved in January at 93.1% for all emergency type attendances. This is one of the performance
indicators that the Trust did highlight to Monitor as ‘at risk’ of not achieving for Q4 in its annual plan.
Comparing ED activity figures over the last 6 weeks to the same position last year, key themes emerging
are a significant increase in majors attendances, an increase in out of area red phone attendances and an
increase in major trauma referrals. Mental Health (MH) attendances remain high and LAS has advised the
Trust that typically 50% of these MH attendances are patients in crisis who are known to SLAM. This has
a dis-proportionate impact on breach performance in ED as 2-4 cubicles in majors can typically be
occupied for periods of up to 12 hours managing MH patients. Front-line clinics have been reduced from
within the mental health sector and this is being picked up with commissioners. There are further MH
patients who require admission for medical conditions, and it is difficult to find a SLAM bed for patients
Enc 3.3

Executive Summary (2/5)
when they are medically fit for discharge.
Health Care Acquired Infection (HCAI) – There were 2 further MRSA cases attributed to the Trust in
January so 7 cases have been reported to date this year. There have been only 2 c-difficile cases
reported in January but the Trust is above its trajectory position of 41 cases to January with 42 cases
reported. Concerns remain around the increase in CRE cases and other multi-resistant organisms. The
Trust self-certified likely non-compliance for c-difficile, given the tight trajectory and rise in activity.
Finance – The financial net variance for the M10 position is -£10.949m from plan.
Complaints – The number of complaints received increased from 54 cases in December to 73 cases in
January whereas the number of complaints rated high or severe remained static at 13 cases. The number
of responses that were either still open or not responded to within the 25 day internal target increased
from 32 cases in December to 69 cases in January. The increase in the complaints backlog has been
impacted by an increase in workload following the acquisition of the PRUH sites and additional operational
pressures that have been sustained throughout the current winter period.
1.3 Actions – 5 areas
RTT admitted - The Trust's first waiting list priority is the reduction of the number of 52+ week wait
patients, but the number waiting at the end of January is static with 75 patients waiting. Lack of critical
care capacity has been a contributing factor and plans are on-track for the 12 critical care beds to be
available in the Christine Brown ward area from 26 February. Treatment plans are being confirmed for all
current 52+ week wait patients and the Trust is planning to have 50 patients waiting over 52 weeks by the
end of March. The second waiting list priority is the reduction in the number of over 18 week patients
which the Trust had planned to reduce to 550 patients by the end of March. However, at the end of
January there are just under 1,750 patients waiting over 18 weeks which is 525 patients above the revised
trajectory position. Based on the latest delivery plans that have been worked-up within the divisions, the
Trust expects the backlog position to reach 1,250 patients by the end of March. In addition, the Executive
is undertaking a detailed review of demand and capacity with a view to identifying any more
Enc 3.3

Executive Summary (3/5)
material strategic changes.
Emergency Care Performance – Weekly Emergency Care Board meetings are being held to review
performance and progress against the ED Action plan which is included later in this report. Daily
Emergency Department (ED) breach meetings are being held to review the 4-hour breaches. The Trust is
implementing its plans for 7-day working in medicine but a number of areas have not been able to make
progress due to challenges finding appropriate temporary staffing solutions. The fill rate for posts is
improving and substantive recruitment has commenced for the clinical administrator and bed manager
posts. Increased weekend therapies presence is supporting the discharge process, and weekend
discharges has improved to 31 patients during the first 2 weeks in February compared to 20 weekend
discharges on average during January. Additional support from Social Services will contribute towards
improving weekend discharges further.
Health Care Acquired Infection (HCAI) – A full root cause and analysis will be conducted into the MRSA
and c-difficile cases that have been attributed to the Trust in January. The latest HCAI Action plan is
included later in this report.
Finance - Review meetings were held with each division from the week commencing 27 January.
Complaints – The first meeting of the Serious Complaints committee will be held on the 21 February 2014,
chaired by one of the non-executive directors and including executive directors and senior clinicians.
2. Other areas of concern:
2.1 Diagnostic Waiting Times – There were 57 breaches of the 6-week diagnostic waiting time target
reported at the end of January, an decrease of 11 patients compared to the December position. This
represents 1.25% of the diagnostic waiting list, and is above the national target of 1% but is improving in-
month during February where the key area of concern are backlog patients waiting in Paediatric
Gastroscopy.
2.2 Tertiary transfers - Repatriation bedday delays have increased significantly from 454 beddays in
December to 1,076 beddays in January, effectively representing at least 35 beds per day on average for
January. Nearly 50% of the transfer delays are Neurosciences patients which also includes patients on our
Enc 3.3
8
Executive Summary (4/5)
Stroke Unit. Repatriation delays are escalated daily to the Director of Operations at relevant Trusts and now
to NHS England, given the higher volume of repatriation delays for stroke and neurosciences patients. The
CEO of Southwark CCG is writing to CEO’s in out of area CCG’s in relation to the tertiary transfer pressures
that we are facing on the Denmark Hill site.
2.3 Red Shifts – The number of ward-based red shifts decreased from 102 in December to 64 in January,
still higher than the number of red shifts reported at this time last year: with 31 red shifts reported in TEAM
wards, 10 in Child Health wards and 9 in Surgical wards.
2.4 Red Adverse Incidents (AIs) – 20 incidents were reported in January compared to 14 in December, of
which 8 cases were community-acquired pressure ulcer cases that we are required to report.
2.5 Vacancy Rate - Staff vacancy rate continues to increase, from the 8.9% rate reported in December to
14% in January, considerably above the target range of 5 - 8.0%.
2.6 Mandatory and Statutory Training - The overall index score for reporting staff who have attended
mandatory & statutory training courses reduced by 1 point to 72, below the expected index of 100. Further
focus on training is required in order to achieve the internal target of 95%.
3. Regulatory and Contractual Performance
3.1 Monitor
Monitor Q4 position - The Trust has achieved all the performance indicator targets in the Monitor Risk
Assessment Framework for January with the exception of the RTT 18 Week Admitted target, C-difficile target
and the 4-hour A&E performance target. A&E attendances and sustained emergency access pressures
continued into January and All Types performance of 93.1% was achieved.
3.2 Contractual
CCG - The Contract has been signed with the CCG Commissioners for 2013-14.
NHS England – The revised offer from NHSE has been accepted and the Contract has now been signed.

Executive Summary (1/6)
1. PRUH 2013-14 Key Areas of Performance for Month 10:
1.1 Good Performance
Patient Experience – All HRWD patient survey scores improved again in January, with the section score
targets for Care Perceptions and Environment being achieved. The recent CQC inspection report also
highlighted the real commitment from front-line and other staff in providing compassionate care to patients.
1.2 Performance challenges – 5 Areas
Referral to Treatment (RTT) – The RTT Non-admitted completed pathway target of 95% was achieved
for January with 95.0% of patients seen within 18-weeks in outpatient settings for the PRUH and Queen
Mary Sidcup hospitals. However, the RTT Admitted completed pathway target of 90% was not achieved
with 81.3% of patients admitted within 18 weeks, and the RTT Incomplete pathway target of 92% for
patients still waiting on an open pathway was also not achieved at 90.6%. This is consistent with our
plans set out with Monitor and reflects the multiple service moves that have been implemented since
October across the old SLHT hospital sites, and high medical demand leading to elective cancellations
during January.
Emergency Care Performance – The Emergency Care performance target was not achieved in January
for either the Type 1 A&E attendances at 67.1% or for all type attendances which includes the Urgent Care
centre (UCC) at the PRUH at 79.6%. Again, this is consistent with our plans set out to Monitor. Fragile
discharge processes and patient outflow issues continue to affect performance from the ED compounded
by staff capacity issues in relation to consultant cover and nursing staff shortages on the wards.
Health Care Acquired Infection (HCAI) – No MRSA cases have been attributed to the Trust since
October 2013 and this quality indicator is no longer assessed by Monitor in the Risk Assessment
Framework for Q3 onwards. There were 5 c-difficile cases attributed to the PRUH in January so 8 cases
have been reported for the cumulative position from October 2013 to January 2014 which would put the
PRUH above trajectory for the January position. However, 2 further cases have been reported to-date in
February so 10 cases have been reported in total which means the year-end trajectory has now been
reached. Any further cases will mean that this target will be breached in Q4.
Enc 3.3
5
Executive Summary (2/6)
Cancer Waiting Times - Cancer waiting time data is not yet available for January, but the Q3 position
reported that the 2-week wait time and 62-day time to first treatment cancer standards were not achieved
for Q3. This is consistent with our self-certification on cancer waiting achievement with Monitor.
Finance – Further details on the financial position will be picked up separately in the Finance paper.
1.2 Actions – 5 areas
RTT admitted – RTT Board meetings continue to take place on the PRUH site specific to services
provided from the PRUH and Queen Mary Sidcup hospitals, to which all divisions are required to send a
representative.
Emergency Care Performance – Daily operational site performance meetings are held at 10:30 to
highlight and review key areas of operational concern. The ED Action plan to improve 4-hour performance
is reviewed at weekly Emergency Care Board meetings at PRUH, and commissioners are also invited to
attend. Further work is underway to refresh the ED recovery plan following recommendations from the
NHSE visit, CQC report feedback as well as feedback from the DH Intensive Support Team.
A “Safer Faster Hospital” planned internal incident is scheduled to start from 8am on Friday 7 March to
1pm Friday 14 March at PRUH. The objective is to improve safety and flow through the PRUH site and
community colleagues have been briefed and are supporting the initiative. Community organisations
involved include the CCG, Bromley Health Services, Bromley Social Services, Continuing Health Care, St
Christopher’s, LAS, Oxleas Trust and Bexley Social Services.
The Trust has also invited the Emergency Care Intensive Support Team (ECIST) to work with our Director
of Therapies and Community partners to undertake an audit of patients in hospital for 7 days or more at
the PRUH earlier in February. ECIST are due to provide a report with feedback and recommended
actions.
Health Care Acquired Infection (HCAI) – Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) governance structures
are being re-instated at the PRUH and due to commence in February including an Environmental Action
Group and an Infection Prevention and Control Committee which is due to meet in March. Work is also
Enc 3.3
6
Executive Summary (3/6)
being undertaken with divisions to establish an IPC consultant lead role at the PRUH with a focus on
identifying candidates for this role. A baseline review of practice relating to IV lines has been completed
and an action plan is being implemented to standardise documentation and consumables, and to introduce
ANTT training.
Cancer Waiting Times – A Cancer Action Plan has been developed in response to the DH Intensive
Support Team visit earlier in the financial year.
Finance – Review meetings were held with each division from the week commencing 27 January.
2. Other areas of concern:
2.1 Diagnostic Waiting Times – The number of 6+ week diagnostic waiting time breaches at the PRUH
reduced slightly from 458 in December to 414 patients as at the end of January, and the national 1% target
for patients waiting over 6 weeks is not being achieved. Over half of the breaches are non-Obstetric
ultrasound tests which have increased due to clinician vacancies causing short-term capacity issues.
2.2 Red Adverse Incidents – the number of red adverse incidents increased from 26 cases in December
to 22 cases in January - 5 of these cases are internal with the other cases relating to community-acquired
pressure ulcers. All cases are the subject to a root cause analysis and will be presented to the Serious
Incidents committee.
2.3 VTE Assessments – The percentage of patients admitted who had a VTE assessment performed
decreased from 87% in December to 82% in January, and the position is still below the national target of
95%. Changes have been implemented with respect to the recording and reporting of VTE assessment
data at PRUH.
2.4 Complaints – The number of complaints received increased from 21 cases in December to 38 cases in
January, and the number of complaints rated high or severe increased from 4 to 6 cases. The number of
complaints that are still open or not responded to within the internal target of 25 days has improved from 21
cases in December to 12 cases in January.
Enc 3.3
7
Executive Summary (4/6)
2.5 Inpatient Cancellations – The number of inpatient operations cancelled on the day due to non-medical
reasons increased from 60 cases in December to 133 cases in January, with bed pressures being one of the
key reasons for cancellation.
2.6 Vacancy Rate – Figures are not yet available for January but the staff vacancy rate at PRUH was 16.1%
in December, above the target rate range of 5-8%.
3. Regulatory and Contractual Performance
3.1 Monitor
Monitor interim Q4 position – Only the RTT non-admitted pathway target was achieved at PRUH, as
neither the RTT Incomplete and Admitted targets were achieved for January, consistent with our plans to
Monitor.
A&E attendances and sustained emergency access pressures continued during January and PRUH did not
achieve the 95% 4-hour A&E performance target at 79.6% for All Type attendances in January.
5 C-Difficile case was reported in January with the Trust having 8 attributable cases since October 2013 to
January 2014. 2 further cases have been reported in February which means that that year-end trajectory of
10 cases has now been reached.
Cancer waiting time data for Q4 was not available at the time that this report was published.
The Trust is therefore reporting non-achievement of four targets for the interim Q4 2013/14 assessment due
to the RTT 18 Week Admitted completed and Incomplete targets as well as the A&E 4-hour target and c-
difficile trajectory not being achieved for January.
3.2 Contractual Update
CCG - Contracts have been novated to receivers, however, there is a contract variation required to move
Direct Access Pathology (£4m FYE) into the King’s Contract, and Queen Mary’s Sidcup Neurology
outpatients (£274k FYE) out of the King’s Contract. Receiver splits have been agreed and the Trust is
awaiting the final contract documentation from the Commissioning Support Unit to agree and sign.
Enc 3.3

Executive Summary (5/6)
NHS England – Contracts have been novated successfully with no issues outstanding to resolve.
CQUIN 2013/14: CCG Q3 update – The Trust has submitted its Q3 CQUIN return evidence and is waiting
feedback from CCG’s. A number of data recording and reporting issues have been found which we are now
improving which are having an adverse effect on compliance with targets based on previous SLHT-baseline
data.

Implications
for King’s
• Alignment with local health economy including
commissioning intentions and Better Care Fund.
• Thorough and credible demand and capacity plans.
• Clear programmes for both incremental and
transformational CIPs.
• More external analysis of health economy over
longer time period.
• Focus on sustainability risks for key service lines.
• Transformation as lever – no incremental plans post
2016.
Monitor planning assumptions
Affordability challenge shows the gap between budgets and projected pressures rising to unprecedented levels over next five years.
Plans must deliver greater gains in efficiency through redesign of individual services and a step change in efficiency of system
through completely redesigning care pathways to transform care quality outside of hospitals.

1. Executive Summary
Divisions have reviewed their governance structures for the enlarged organisation. Site specific risk/ governance meetings have been setup where appropriate in a number of specialities and feed through to overarching Divisional quality governance committees. We will be auditing the arrangements in March 2014 to ensure they are becoming embedded and are working effectively;
An announced CQC inspection occurred at the Princess Royal University Hospital between 2 and 4 December 2013. A draft report is currently being reviewed which will be published by the CQC in due course;
3 Never Events were reported at Denmark Hill in the Oct-Dec 2013 quarter (none were reported at other Trust sites):
o 2 cases related to retained foreign objects o 1 case related to a wrong tooth extraction
Each incident has been fully investigated and the actions to improve safety are being monitored by the Serious Incident Committee. Further detail about actions to improve surgical safety are detailed in section 2 below.
A King’s Health Partners (KHP) day event on patient safety is planned for May 2014 and will be hosted at Guy’s Hospital. The purpose of the event will be to showcase patient safety innovations and develop KHP-wide projects to improve safety
2. Safety Quality Priority: Improving Safety in Surgery through use of the Safer
Surgery Checklist (SSC)
Implementation of the SSC is monitored by the Surgical Safety Improvement Group (chaired by Mr Bhangoo, Consultant Neurosurgeon) which reports to the Patient Safety Committee chaired by the Medical Director. A summary of the actions being taken to improve surgical safety was noted in the last quarterly report. However the following additional actions have been implemented subsequent to the 3 surgical Never Events reported in the last quarter – these are listed below:
A memo co-signed by the Medical Director & Director of Nursing & Midwifery has been sent to all surgical staff about their responsibilities in relation to the SSC;
The SSC has been re-launched at Denmark Hill in January 2014. This has involved: o SSC presentations at all of the January 2014 theatre audit mornings;
o Implementation of a communications campaign to ensure effective use of SSC. This
has included: Posters for use in theatres, staff rooms and as screensavers Production of a video on the SSC for use in training and corporate induction
(featuring the Medical Director, Director of Nursing & Midwifery, and a consultant neurosurgeon, anaesthetist and theatre nurse involved in a Never Event)
Development of a website News articles on SSC for the CEO Brief & King’s web
Enc 3.5.2
3 | P a g e
o Launch of a new audit programme which will provide real-time feedback to surgical staff about the effectiveness of SSC use. From February audit results will feature in Divisional scorecards.
The SSC will be re-launched at PRUH, Orpington & QMS sites from February 2014, and in the interim a theatres survey is being undertaken in these areas to assess the safety culture;
The use of the SSC has been provisionally identified as a Trust Safety Quality Priority for 2014-15.
3. Safety Quality Priority: Improving the identification and escalation of acutely ill
patients Work to improve the management of acutely ill-patients is led by the Director of Nursing and Midwifery.). Although this remains an important patient safety issue, significant progress has been made in the last 12 months. The focus of current work includes:
Uptake of the I-mobile service at Denmark Hill (a 24/7 critical care outreach service staffed with medics and nurses) has been very positive since inception of the service in September 2013. A critical care outreach team is also in operation at the PRUH;
The electronic vital signs software (Wardware) is expected to be rolled out across all wards at Denmark Hill by the end of 2014;
A Safer Care Forum has been setup which will review deteriorating patient investigations to ensure that actions are being implemented to improve safety;
Plans are underway to increase critical care capacity in the short, medium and long term. Construction of a new 60 bedded critical care unit will begin at the end of 2013 with planned completion in 2015/16. This will enable the Trust to better respond to both planned and unplanned increases in critical care demand.
The Deteriorating Patient Group monitors these workstreams and reports into the Patient Safety Committee.
4. Patient Falls In Quarter 3 there was a slight decrease in the total number of patient falls reported at Denmark Hill (compared to Quarter 2). The vast majority of these did not result in any significant injury to the patient (less than 3%). At the PRUH the number of falls remained static between Quarter 2 and Quarter 3. Actions being implemented to reduce incidence of patient falls include:
An increase in establishment of the Falls Team across the enlarged organisation including falls prevention nurses at the PRUH;
The falls risk assessment documentation is being reviewed to ensure consistency in approach between sites;
A Safer Care Forum has been setup which will review falls root cause analysis investigations to ensure that actions are being implemented to reduce falls risk;
A business case is being developed to establish a pool of staff who will be available to provide immediate 1:1 care to patients who are deemed at high risk of falls.
Enc 3.5.2
4 | P a g e
Patient falls continue to be monitored by the Falls Strategy Group which reports to the Patient Safety Committee. The Falls workstream is led by the Deputy Director of Nursing. 5. Pressure Ulcers At Denmark Hill in the period Oct-Dec 2013 there were 28 hospital acquired pressure ulcers, compared to 36 in the previous quarter. However, despite the overall reduction there was an increase in the number of serious pressure ulcers (those graded 3 or 4). All grade 3 or 4 hospital acquired pressure ulcers are fully investigated and the report and actions monitored by the Serious Incident Committee. At the PRUH there were 87 hospital acquired pressure ulcers reported in the period Oct-Dec 2013. However, 84 of these were grade 2 pressure ulcers where the damage is minimal. Specialist tissue viability nurses have commenced at the PRUH and will be working to ensure that grade 2 pressure ulcers do not develop into grade 3 or 4 pressure ulcers. Pressure ulcers are closely monitored through the Tissue Viability Team and will be reviewed at the Safer Care Forum. This workstream is led by the Deputy Director of Nursing.
6. Infection Control Specific targets for MRSA bacteraemia and CDT are set by the Department of Health and performance against these targets at Denmark Hill is listed below:
The Trust reported 3 cases of MRSA bacteraemia in the Oct-Dec 2013 quarter, bringing the total year-to-date figure to 5 cases (the target is zero);
As at the end of December 2013 the Trust remains below target on reported CDT cases. The Trust has in place an infection control governance framework to ensure that hospital acquired infections are identified and investigated and appropriate action is taken to prevent recurrence (this includes a Director and Deputy Director of Infection Prevention and Control). This infection control governance framework has been extended to the PRUH. The Infection Prevention and Control Committee continues to monitor Trust infection control performance and reports to the Patient Safety Committee. 7. Recommendation The Council of Governors is asked to note the content of this report.

Enc 4.2
1. Purpose NHS Foundation Trusts are required to make in-year submissions on a quarterly basis during 2013/14 which includes information on its financial performance, statements from the board certifying compliance with specific board statements including the underlying data that informs them where appropriate, any relevant exception reports and results of any governor elections. This report provides the details of the proposed submission to Monitor for the Trust based on results/data in Quarter 3, October-December 2013. 2. Action Required
The Council of Governors is as to note report on the Quarter 3 submission approved by the Board (28 January) and submitted to Monitor (30 January).
Report to: Council of Governors
Date of meeting: 05 March 2014
Subject: Monitor Submission Quarter 3, 2013/2014
Author: Tamara Cowan, Assistant Board Secretary
Presented by: Tim Smart, Chief Executive
Status: For Information

Enc. 4.2
1. Introduction
The Trust is required to summit quarterly reports to Monitor as part of its in-year reporting. The Trust is also required to submit monthly reports on performance to Monitor pertaining to the Princess Royal University Hospital. With effect from 01 October 2013, the Risk Assessment Framework (RAF) was implemented and replaces the Compliance Framework. Of note, are the following substantive changes:
Continuity of Service Risk Rating (CSRR) replaces the Financial Risk Rating
(FRR);
Monitor will collect, annually, details of the Trust’s Auditors;
Monitor will use executive team turnover as a potential indicator of quality
governance concerns. Accordingly as requested the Trust complete the new
Quality Governance sheet detailing the turnover of executive team members;
The scoring methodology of target and indicator performance has been changed
depicted below. MRSA and CQC compliance actions will no longer generate a
score (See Figure 1 below); and
The Governance Statements which the Board is required to self-certify
(Confirmed/Not Confirmed) have also been revised as follows:
1. For finance, that: The board anticipates that the trust will continue to
maintain a Continuity of Service risk rating of at least 3 over the next 12
months.
2. For governance, that: The board is satisfied that plans in place are sufficient
to ensure: ongoing compliance with all existing targets (after the application
of thresholds) as set out in Appendix A of the Risk Assessment Framework;
and a commitment to comply with all known targets going forwards.
3. Otherwise: The board confirms that there are no matters arising in the
quarter requiring an exception report to Monitor (per the Risk Assessment
Framework page 21, Diagram 6) which have not already been reported (See
Figure 2 below).

2. Quarter 3 (Q3) – Board Certification
For finance The Board approved Confirmed to governance statement 1 because the Trust has attained a CSRR of 3 in Q3 and it is anticipated this trend will continue to for next 12 months although the Trust faces significant challenges. For governance The Board approved Not Confirmed to governance statement 2 as the Trust failed to achieve the following targets and indicators as certified in its Annual Plan 2013-14:
18 week admitted referral to treatment targets (RTT)
MRSA
C-Difficile
Emergency Department (ED)
The Trust continues to work hard to achieve these targets and indicators but ED and RTT was much challenged in Q3 and going into Q4 this trend has not changed. In addition, the Trust has had one C-Difficile case to add to the 40 cases seen in Q3 which puts the Trust at risk of breaching the quota of 49 by year-end.
4
Enc. 4.2
Otherwise
The Board approved Confirmed to governance statement 2 because there have been no exceptional matters or incidence arising in the Q3 which the Trust has not previously advised Monitor or self-certified. 3. Quarter 3 (Q3) – Key Returns
As part of the submission the Board is noted the following key returns which will be submitted to Monitor for Q3.
Appendix 1: Continuity of Service Risk Rating and Financial Summary
Appendix 2: Declarations of risks against healthcare Targets and Indicators
Appendix 3: Governance Statement – Board Certification
Appendix 4: Quality Governance return which details executive director turnover in
Q3. As mentioned above this metric has been introduced with the implementation of
the RAF. Monitor wants to use this metrics as an indicator for quality governance
concerns, however the RAF provides for the use either patient metrics (satisfaction
surveys), staff metrics (sickness and absence rate, proportion of temporary staff,
staff turnover and high executive team turnover) and aggressive cost reduction
plans.
4. Recommendation
The Council of Governors is asked to note the above decisions of the Board in relation to
the Q3 submission to Monitor.

The board confirms that there are no matters arising in the quarter requiring an exception report to Monitor (per the Risk Assessment
Framework page 21, Diagram 6) which have not already been reported.
The board anticipates that the trust will continue to maintain a Continuity of Service risk rating of at least 3 over the next 12 months.
The board is satisfied that plans in place are sufficient to ensure: ongoing compliance with all existing targets (after the application of
thresholds) as set out in Appendix A of the Risk Assessment Framework; and a commitment to comply with all known targets going
forwards.
The board is unable to make one of more of the confirmations in the section above on this page and accordingly responds:
Monitor may adjust the relevant risk rating if there are significant issues arising and this may increase the frequency and intensity of monitoring for the
NHS foundation trust.
Monitor will accept either 1) electronic signatures pasted into this worksheet or 2) hand written signatures on a paper printout of this declaration posted
to Monitor to arrive by the submission deadline.
In the event than an NHS foundation trust is unable to confirm these statements it should NOT select 'Confirmed’ in the relevant box. It must provide a
response (using the section below) explaining the reasons for the absence of a full certification and the action it proposes to take to address it.
This may include include any significant prospective risks and concerns the foundation trust has in respect of delivering quality services and effective
quality governance.

Trust-Wide Strategic Matrix 2013/14 Review of Q2 DD presented the Trust’s Strategic Matrix for quarter 2 which outlined Trust-wide and divisional strategic priorities. The following key points were noted:
The Trust has implemented a policy for the screening (alcohol and smoking) of medical emergency patients which includes ‘brief intervention’ advice. Following assessment of the effectiveness of this policy, it is expected to be rolled out across the Trust;
It has proved extremely challenging to get the required response rate for the Friends and Family Test. Using volunteers to assist patients with completion of the survey has improved rates;
800 staff and patients have been interviewed as part of King’s in Conversation (KIC) and the Trust’s on-going commitment to improve responsiveness and facilitate patient feedback;
KIC will be rolled out to PRUH patients and staff from November;
Efforts to rapidly translate research into operational policy have been strengthened by the Trust’s involvement with establishment of an Academic Health Sciences Network (AHSN) and a successful bid to set up a Collaboration for Leadership in Applied Health Research and Care (CLAHRC); and
The long-running Outpatient transformation project in Suite 3 is beginning to have a positive effect on patient experience and continued dialogue with health professionals and teams is moving implementation of the project forward.
In discussion, the following points were raised and noted:

013/41 Integration/Transformation Plan TJ presented the governance framework for integrating and transforming the enlarged organisation and how this sits alongside day to day operations as business as usual. The following key points were noted:
A series of linked weekly, fortnightly and monthly meetings will monitor delivery of the various plans and major projects. These include individual divisions that will have responsibility for delivery of CIPs within their division;
The new Programme Management Office (PMO) will drive the integration work;
There are currently 7 major projects driving the integration programme. Each project will have an executive sponsor and internal project champion; and
A clear and structured ‘Gateway Review’ process will be employed to agree, develop and review projects and to secure the benefits of the business case.
In discussion, the following points were raised and noted:
The Trust is working with local Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) and other agencies to reduce length of stay through pathway improvements;
Governors would also be interested in learning about any proposed ‘minor’ projects of the integration plan.

The following key points were noted:
The KHP Partners Board would meet on 30 October to consider two options and one major issue;
The two options relate to merger of the three foundation trusts and whether the option to merge should be pursued immediately or at a slower pace, bearing in mind recent developments such as the acquisition of the PRUH and the Competition Commission’s decision to prohibit the merger of Bournemouth and Poole hospitals;
The major issue is whether clinical and academic strategies and end goals can be commonly agreed between partners and, if so, how merger would help achieve them;
The five key areas under discussion are cancer, cardiac, paediatrics, regenerative medicine and integrated care; and
An alternative to merger would be to press ahead with agreed clinical priorities.
013/43 Academic Integrated Care Organisation (AICO) JS presented a summary of Southwark and Lambeth Integrated Care’s (SLIC) ambitions to create an Academic Integrated Care organisation (AICO). Key points included:
SLIC’s bid for ‘pioneer’ status was not successful but it is still exploring possibilities of working with KHP, commissioners, GPs and social care organisations to achieve radical system change;
There is a clear vision for how the new system will be different from the present system. One distinct difference being the creation of a ‘care co-ordinator’ role which has overall responsibility for an individual’s care;
It will also make a significant difference to care providers and the way in which they work, focusing on providing proactive, preventative, joined up and reliable care packages;
Organisations signed up to the AICO would need to transform their workforce to deliver the joint vision;
Community multi-disciplinary teams are already in existence, discussing individual cases and as primary care complete holistic health assessments we expect to find more older people in need of case management;
A provider business case will explore the possibilities of changing organisational form as an enabler of delivery, including the case for capitated health and social care budgets and the transfer of some services from incumbent organisations to the AICO;
It is anticipated that work to develop the business case will commence in

January 2014;
Government is supportive of integrated care projects and funding has been allocated to local CCG budgets for transformation to models of integrated care.
013/44 Strategic Issues Q2 The Committee noted the review of strategic context for 2013/14 quarter 2. The following key points were noted:
The Competition Commission’s decision with regard to the merger of Bournemouth and Poole hospitals raises significant issues for KHP, not least the financial implications of pursuing a merger option which is subsequently rejected;
The future role of Monitor in assessing the benefit to patients of merger options and having stronger influence with the Competition Commission and Office of Fair Trading is under discussion. The Foundation Trust Network has written to the Secretary of State to urge him to look at the competition process;
Whole pathway tenders of musculo-skeletal and diabetes pathways in Bexley are an example of commissioners driving integrated care;
Publication of the Ombudsman report on sepsis has highlighted examples of poor care and raised the profile of this condition; and
‘Big Data’ has the potential to transform care models by tracking all patient interactions across the system leading to the prediction of conditions, although it also raises questions of patient confidentiality.
013/45 Organisational Development & Learning Strategy SJ presented a summary of the Trust’s Organisational Development & Learning Strategy, which was developed earlier this year in anticipation of the Trust becoming an enlarged organisation. The following key points were noted:
Developing an integrated, expanded organisation which aspires to the same vision and values as the Trust held prior to the acquisition is key to the strategy;
Development is taking place at three levels: organisational, directorate/divisional and individual and it is recognised that strong leadership is required to set the tone;
A series of activities will begin soon for medical and dental staff and non-medical staff, with some programmes run jointly with KHP. Benchmarking research is currently being undertaken to identify any gaps between the component organisations within the enlarged Trust;

013/46 New NHS Commissioning Landscape Andrew Eyres, Chief Officer of Lambeth CCG, presented an outline of the new NHS commissioning landscape since changes came into force on 01 April 2013. The following key points were noted:
Commissioning responsibilities are now divided across local government, CCGs and NHS England;
CCGs are hybrid statutory and membership organisations;
The commissioning context is growing demand from a population that is living longer, but with increased incidence of long term conditions, resourced by flat NHS funding and a reduced social care budget;
Strategic planning by CCGs for a sustainable NHS is centred around clinical input and engagement with patients and local communities, funding allocations, integration planning and system-wide sustainability;
There is a shift in focus from access targets and waiting times to innovation, quality assurance and preventing ill health; and
A series of commissioning partnerships from the local level e.g. KHP and AHSNs, to sector-wide and national initiatives are central to this new approach to commissioning.
013/47 Any Other Business JW1 reported the following changes to the strategy team:
Joe Farrington-Douglas and Laura Gillam have been appointed as Senior Strategy Advisor and Strategy Analyst respectively;
David Dawson is now Deputy Director of Strategy; and

013/40 Phlebotomy Transformation Project
Stephen Harding, Pathology Development & Liaison Manager reported that the Phlebotomy Transformation Project is in its final stages with 2 outstanding issues in relation to signage and training Phlebotomists on Electronic Patient Request (EPR).
It was noted that:
The Phlebotomy service is run by GSTS and there have been major improvements;
Patient waiting times have improved with an average waiting time of 7 minutes;
Customer care issues have been resolved with more phlebotomists during peak hours;
Issue with the automatic display downtime would be reported to GSTS; and
The phlebotomy service at the PRUH and Beckenham Beacon sites will be managed by the Trust and long waiting times will not be acceptable. A demand analysis will be carried out as at Denmark Hill to inform service improvement.
013/41 Changes to Pharmacy Services
Chris Barrass, Director of Pharmacy provided the Committee with an overview
of the Pharmacy services and answered a number of questions that were put
forward by SO in advance of the meeting.
Key discussion points included:
The Trust contracted out its Outpatient Pharmacy dispensing service to Sainsbury’s, which officially opened in July 2013;
The main reason for outsourcing the Outpatient Pharmacy service was to improve the quality of outpatient dispensing services by having longer opening hours, shorter waiting times and wider collection options. It also provides considerable VAT savings to the NHS and the Trust;
The nature of business between the Trust and Sainsbury’s is a standard NHS contract with normal contractual safeguards, that includes 38 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs);
Enc 4.3.3
Confirmed Minutes - Patient Experience & Safety Committee 22 October 2013
Item Subject Action
The Trust monitors the KPIs on monthly basis to check the quality of service and apply any financial penalties where quality and safety KPIs are not met;
The duration of the contract is 11 years with a review every 5 years. The Trust can terminate the contract if Sainsbury’s fail to meet contract
or if fail any KPIs for any 3 months out of 6 or if VAT rules change;
CB presented the average outpatient waiting times and the KPI charts to the Committee. The waiting times have decreased significantly since August 2013;
It was noted that the space provided to Sainsbury’s Pharmacy was agreed by the Trust and there are 13 seats in total in the pharmacy waiting areas. It was highlighted by Governors that adequate seating space in the pharmacy for patients and in particular for elderly patients is essential;
Patients should not be waiting long to hand in their prescription. Sainsbury’s will be conducting a patient satisfaction survey and it will be good to align the survey questions with those of HRWD;
The Pharmacy team has been focusing on discharge delays and 70% of drugs are now prescribed by Pharmacist and not junior doctors; and
It was highlighted that one of the key issue is advising patient on taking drugs properly and receiving all their required drugs from one prescriber. CB emphasised that this is not just a pharmacy issue but a wider Commissioner and prescriber responsibility to advise and provide clarification to patients about their drugs.
