Time to Change
• Increasing evidence of poor outcomes for patients admitted at weekends.
• 5 day service model not meeting patient needs or expectations.
“This change will be difficult - but it is the right thing to do.”
Sir Bruce Keogh, National Medical Director
Mortality rates
Medical Royal Colleges and the National Confidential Enquiry into Patient Outcome and Death (NCEPOD) research demonstrates a significantly greater risk of dying within 30 days of admission (up to 16%) for weekend compared to weekday admissions
Higher mortality rate is multi-factorial and likely to be a consequence of:• Variable staffing levels in hospitals at the weekend• Absence of senior decision-makers of consultant level skill and
experience• Lack of consistent specialist services, such as diagnostic and
scientific services at weekends• Lack of availability of specialist community and primary care
services, which might otherwise support patients to die at home
The journey so far…..
• Everyone Counts: Planning for Patients 2013/14: “The NHS will move towards routine services being available seven days a week.”
• Seven Day Services Forum established - urgent and emergency services, supporting diagnostics
• Forum’s recommendations approved by NHS England – including adoption of 10 clinical standards
The journey so far…
• Forum scope widened - consideration of a fully integrated seven day service
• 5 Year Forward View: key part of system transformation“…we will develop a framework for how seven day services can be implemented affordably and sustainably…”

Intervention/Key services
Standard 5 DiagnosticsHospital inpatients must have scheduled seven-day access to diagnostic services such as x-ray, ultrasound, computerised tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), echocardiography, endoscopy, bronchoscopy and pathology. Consultant-directed diagnostic tests and completed reporting will be available seven days a week:
• Within 1 hour for critical patients • Within 12 hours for urgent patients • Within 24 hours for non-urgent patients
Supporting information: • It is expected that all hospitals have access to radiology, haematology, biochemistry, microbiology and histopathology • Critical patients are considered those for whom the test will alter their management at the time; urgent patients are considered those for whom

Standard 6- Intervention/key servicesHospital inpatients must have timely 24 hour access, seven days a week, to consultant-directed interventions that meet the relevant specialty guidelines, either on-site or through formally agreed networked arrangements with clear protocols, such as:
• Critical care • Interventional radiology • Interventional endoscopy • Emergency general surgery
Supporting information: Standards are not sequential; if an intervention is required it may precede the thorough clinical assessment by a suitable consultant in standard 2. • Other interventions may also be required. For example, this may include: • Renal replacement therapy

The Timescale
• Standard contract to include action plan for delivering the clinical standardsDeadline - March 2015
Year 1
2014/15
• The standards which will have the greatest impact should move into the national quality requirements section of the NHS standard contract.
• 50% implementation by March 2016
Year 2
2015/16
• All clinical standards incorporated into the national quality requirements section of the NHS standard contract with appropriate contractual sanctions in place for non-compliance.
• Full Implementation by March 2017
Year 3
2016/17
Seven Day Services ProgrammeImprovement Priorities
1. Diagnostics – targeted improvement spreading evidence-based models
2. Start the drive for spread by identifying the top 5 interventions which make a difference through working with healthcare communities
3. Designing new models of seven day services for whole systems change
LevelsLevel 0 - Five days a week, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.
Level 1 - Services limited to one department or a service that is beginning to deliver some services beyond the 8am to 6pm Monday to Friday service.
Level 2 - Services that are delivered seven days per week, but not always offering the full range of services that are delivered on week days.
Level 3 - A whole service approach to seven day service delivery that requires several elements to work together in order to facilitate clinical decision making or treatment, often covering more than one work force group.
Level 4 - A whole system approach to seven day service delivery by integrating the requirements for elements of seven day services across more than one specialty.
NHS Improving Quality’s role
• Support and facilitate the ‘how to’:- spreading learning and knowledge
- advice and support
- resources to support assessment and delivery
- connecting people
• Spread change, foster collaboration and build momentum
• Build capacity and capability - service improvement
• Champion patient & public involvement
• Shape future policy - identifying barriers/challenges
National Seven Day Service Self Assessment Tool
www.7daysat.nhs.uk
• Enables self assessment of current level of service provision against the National Clinical Standards for Seven Day Services and the planning guidance
• Plans for expanding services
• How patient and public views are used in service design
• Barriers and drivers to achieving extended services around areas such as workforce and finance?
• What benefits the organisation seen / would like to see as a result of extending services?
HEALTHCARE SCIENTISTSEVEN DAY SERVICES SURVEY FINDINGS
25th September 2013
356 Responses- Majority of staff believe they should offer 7DS
Consultation with service users regarding needs ; less than 50%, compared to 95% in pathology services
Services currently implement 7DS
- Pathology (Haematology, Biochemstry, Microbiology)
- Medical Physics
- Cardiac physiology (primarily interventional cardiology, pacemaker/defibrillation services, echo)
Service delivery models - half using predominantly on call systems for specific diagnostic tests rather than deliver a full 7DS
Top 3 drivers for 7DS delivery
-Clinical demand
-Urgent/emergency care demand
-Waiting time and elective work – primary driver for neurophsyiology
Top 3 barriers to implementing 7DS
-Financial constraints
-Recruitment /staff shortages
-Staff rota preference

• Technology and innovation with access to interpretation and clinical action
• A networked approach
• Workforce- Investment in more staff - Alternative and extended roles - Expansion of point of care testing
• Leadership and engagement are needed
• Workforce availability, numbers and capability
• 7/7 Access to medical team
• 7/7 Access to patient information
• New registration system • Scientist Training
Programme (STP) make workforce planning difficult
• Potential for demand increase if primary care-is 7/7
• Entrenched staff who want to work 5/7
