Introduction Chairman & Chief Executive Statement Reaching the end of the financial year 2011/12 is an opportune time to reflect on the work of the Trust during the course of the year and our progress on delivering the Trust’s vision of providing the best cancer care to the people we serve. The Trust retains the registration without qualification agreed by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) with only standard restrictive conditions. Standard restrictive conditions cover what regulated activities can be carried out at the Trusts premises, these are stated below: x x

Treatment of disease, disorder or injury Diagnostic and screening procedures

We are pleased to report that the Trust continues to provide the highest quality of care possible and in recognition of this the Patient Environment Action Team (PEAT) assessment results for 2012 for environment, food and privacy and dignity all received ‘excellent’ ratings. The Trust has achieved the majority of operating standards in respect of relevant NHS targets in 2011/12. The Trust’s 62 day cancer waiting time standard has been met. This is a considerable achievement in the context that a significant proportion of patients are referred towards the end of or even after the 62 day period. We continue to work with our colleagues in the healthcare system to ensure that our patients receive timely treatment and the Trust delivers sustainable achievement of the required standard. The Trust’s commitment to provide safe services is reflected in the achievement of the very challenging standard in respect of clostridium-difficile infections. The Independent Regulator of Foundation Trusts ‘Monitor’ has awarded the organisation the best rating possible for financial risks. The Trust has achieved a strong balance sheet with a revenue surplus, which has enabled us to continue our investment programme to upgrade facilities and services in the Trust. The Trust has approved plans to continue this investment in 2012/13. The Trust’s new radiotherapy centre collocated with The Walton Centre NHS Foundation Trust in North Liverpool has become a successful and integral part of the delivery of our services taking our excellent radiotherapy treatments closer to the patients we serve. The Trust continued its close working with our Commissioners to deliver our shared vision for the development of cancer services in Merseyside and Cheshire. In particular agreement has been reached on funds to be provided to support our proposed investment in Liverpool which will see the opening of our new cancer centre and the remodelling of our other services and facilities by 2017/18. We are delighted to be able to report that 2011/12 has been an immensely successful year for our charity ‘Clatterbridge your cancer centre’. The generous donations from our supporters, both individual and corporate, enabled us to raise £1,200,000, an increase of some 20% on the previous year. This has allowed the Trust to supplement its NHS funds with more investment in the patient care environment and our research capability and capacity than would otherwise have been possible. 5

Clearly 2011/12 has been a productive year for the Trust but there are significant challenges facing the Trust in the coming years. The most significant of these relate to the financial pressures which the NHS will experience. How these pressures will impact on our services is still not known but they are likely to create a more demanding environment in which we will have to operate. Nevertheless, we are confident that with the support of our Governors and Members and the exceptional level of commitment and hard work of our Staff 2012/13 will prove to be an equally successful year for the Trust. We are pleased to announce that following public consultation during 2011 the Independent Regulator, Monitor approved the request to amend the Trust’s constitution allowing the Trust’s name to be revised from “Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology NHS Foundation Trust” to “The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust” with effect from 1st April 2012.

Directors’ Report Vision, Mission and Values The Trust has a clear picture of its fundamental purpose and its role in contributing to the health of all the individuals in the population it serves. The Trust’s vision summarises the obligations it feels and its mission outlines the key attributes of service delivery it will measure itself against. The vision and mission provide the yardstick used by the Trust to inform its decision-making. Vision To provide the best cancer care to the people we serve. Mission / core purpose To improve health and wellbeing through compassionate, safe and effective cancer care. The Trust is proud of its ethos, which in turn is derived from the organisational values subscribed to by all our staff. These values are fundamental to the culture of the organisation and guide the behaviours we should exhibit in caring for our patients, both current and future. Values x Putting people first x Passionate about what we do x Achieving excellence x Committed to our future x Always improving our care Trust profile Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology (CCO) is the provider of nonsurgical oncology (chemotherapy and radiotherapy services) to the population of Merseyside and Cheshire and the Isle of Man. The Trust is one of the largest networked cancer centres in the UK. We treat in excess of 27,000 patients per year, registering almost 8,000 new patients each year and providing more than 131,000 attendances for treatment. We serve a population of 2.3 million in Merseyside, Cheshire and the Isle of Man. We employ over 860 staff and volunteers and spend approximately £77m per year on all aspects of cancer treatment, diagnosis and care. The hub of the cancer centre is located on the Clatterbridge Health Park in Bebington, Wirral. Within the centre we provide a range of radiotherapy (including low energy proton beam treatments) and chemotherapy treatments in outpatient and inpatient settings. We also provide outpatient consultations, diagnostic imaging services and support services. The majority of outpatient and chemotherapy treatments are provided in District General Hospitals and other specialist hospitals around the network serviced by the Trust. In addition the Trust has a satellite radiotherapy facility in North Liverpool and we provide the Acute Oncology medical service across the network.

The Trust is part of the Merseyside and Cheshire Cancer Network and the Cancer Taskforce and is a full participant in all Clinical Network Groups and Multi-disciplinary Teams. Background Information Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology (CCO) was licensed as a NHS Foundation Trust from 1st August 2006. It is the only NHS cancer centre in England dedicated solely to the provision of radiotherapy and chemotherapy to patients with cancer. The treatment centre has undergone significant financial investment over the past five years and now hosts one of the best equipped radiotherapy centres in the UK. The Trust has a dedicated specialist oncological radiology service with a range of modern imaging equipment. Research and development, including participation in national and international clinical trials, is an important feature of the cancer centre. The Trust has an established track-record of providing high quality cancer care by expert staff, state of the art equipment, cytotoxic therapy and a well established research programme. High quality care has been demonstrated by our excellent performance in respect of all mandated targets and indicators, the achievement of national awards and accreditations and continuous patient feedback. We are now poised at one of the most significant points in our history. The Trust is committed to the development and implementation of plans for a major capital investment in a World Class cancer centre located in Liverpool. This is a once in a generation opportunity to design oncology services to ensure the people of Cheshire, Merseyside and beyond benefit from world class care that is of the highest possible quality. This will help us to play our part in overcoming the specific cancer challenges that face Cheshire and Merseyside e.g.: x x

x

More than 5,500 people die each year from cancer in Cheshire and Merseyside The number of new cancer cases and the number of cancer deaths in this region are significantly higher than the national average (new cases of lung cancer in Cheshire and Merseyside are 15% and 23% higher than the national average for men and women respectively). The incidence of cancer is expected to rise significantly in the next few years

Our proposals aim to achieve the following: x x x x

Better care for the sickest patients by providing our in-patient beds adjacent to an acute hospital Greater clinical collaboration Improved research capacity and opportunities Improved access for many of our patients

The Trust is one of only two English NHS Trusts that focuses exclusively on the care and treatment of people with cancer and it is the only Trust that is dedicated solely to non-surgical oncology. We are also the only provider of a low energy proton beam treatments in the UK. We have a strong track record of leading transformational change and delivering high quality care over many years. We aim to continue on this journey through the delivery of this strategic plan. 8

We have a well established and distributed chemotherapy service model which was the forerunner of local service provision. We are one of the first cancer centres to support the development of an Acute Oncology service across all our local District General Hospitals with Accident and Emergency departments. We possess state of the art technology enabling complex/innovative treatments, and an integrated radiotherapy/imaging department. We have also developed a satellite radiotherapy centre aimed at providing care as close to the patients’ home as possible. We are leading on the development of comprehensive survivorship programmes including the Department of Health pilot programme. We run a comprehensive oncology education programme through our Clinical Education Department and benefit from increasing opportunities in research with academic departments and close links with local universities. We have a strong reputation in both the local and national community and are well loved by our patients (demonstrated by our consistently excellent patient survey results) and have strong community support including a much valued volunteer service. All this is achieved through expert, dedicated staff, supported by a values driven organisational culture.

Operating & Financial Review (OFR) Financial Summary The Trust has again had a successful year and has achieved or exceeded all of its key financial targets. The Trust’s financial position is detailed in the accounts included as part of this report, however the table below summarises performance in the key areas. Financial Target Planned income & expenditure surplus of £1.0m Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) of £6.13m I&E surplus margin of 2.1% EBITDA margin of 8.8% Return on Assets employed of 3.9% Liquid ratio of 71.1 days (measures liquidity of the Trust. The higher the ratio the more liquid the Trust) Overall Financial Risk Rating determined by the independent regulator (Monitor) of 4. (where 5 represents lowest financial risk and 1 highest) Prudential Borrowing Limit (PBL): The long term prudential borrowing limit is set by Monitor. The Trusts current cumulative long term limit is £14.2m. Private Patient Income Cap: Under the terms of authorisation as a Foundation Trust private patient income must not exceed 4.6% of total clinical income

Outcome Achieved actual surplus of £3.37m Achieved actual EBITDA of £7.80m Achieved margin of 5.0% Achieved margin of 10.4% Achieved return of 7.6% Achieved ratio of 115.3 days Achieved Financial Risk Rating of 5.

CCO have an outstanding loan of £4.5m against the PBL limit. In addition the long term obligations relating to finance leases (£0.31m) are scored against the PBL. The total of £4.81m is well within the permissible limit. Private Patient income of £0.64m represents approximate 0.95% of total Trust clinical income. Therefore the Trust has remained within the Private Patient Income Cap.

Key Financial Risks The majority (89.5%) of the Trust’s income is received for the provision of non-surgical cancer treatments to the residents of Merseyside, Cheshire, and parts of Lancashire, North Wales and the Isle of Man. In 2011/12 approximately 24% of the Trust’s clinical income was funded by Payment by Results (PbR) national tariffs, with the remainder from locally determined prices. Both PbR and the local tariff arrangements are based on the principle that the Trust is reimbursed based on activity performed. Therefore a reduction in activity levels represents a financial risk to the Trust. However the Trust is able to mitigate in part against this risk by: x x x

Agreeing local tariffs with commissioners for 76% of clinical income that are not, therefore, subject to the same degree of price volatility as the nationally determined tariffs within Payment by Results. Continuing to agree funding for cancer drug developments based on actual drug usage. Where possible, employing contract tolerances to reduce in year income volatility

As in previous years, a key concern for the forthcoming financial years will be the impact of the reduction in public expenditure on the NHS. The Trust is working with commissioners and other stakeholders across the health economies as part of the North West Quality, Innovation, Productivity and Prevention (QIPP) process to ensure quality cancer services can be maintained whilst increasing productivity and efficiency. As part of the QIPP process the Trust will be required to deliver its own challenging organisational cost improvement programme (CIP) and improvements in unit efficiency. Non-delivery of this target represents a key financial risk to the Trust. However this risk is reduced to the extent that the savings target was achieved in 2011/12 and the 2011/12 programme has been identified. Activity As noted above, the majority of the Trust’s income is derived from providing non surgical cancer treatments and support (such as Radiotherapy, Chemotherapy, palliative care, diagnostic imaging, psychiatric and other support). During 2011/12 the Trust has continued to experience growth for its services and for Chemotherapy in particular. Radiotherapy activity was below plan for most of the year, and although it started to increase in the latter part of the year, cumulative activity was slightly less than planned. The number of patients admitted to the hospital as in-patients also fell in year, but was offset by an increase in day case admissions. Proton therapy activity was in line with the plan for the year.

Forecast growth is related to the increase in estimated numbers of our relevant catchment population, and is based on the same assumptions that underpin the Trust’s 3 year Forward Plan. The percentage growth represents an average of the previous 5 years rather then a 10

11


projection based solely on the last 12 months. Due to relatively low patient numbers (circa 100 – 120 p.a.) the Proton Therapy activity is quite volatile year on year and although the growth forecast of 5% may appear high, it only equates to approximately 6 additional patients in the year. Other Income and Non-healthcare Activities As noted above, the majority of the Trust’s income is derived from providing clinical cancer services. In addition, the remaining 10.5% of income is derived from: x x x x x

Undertaking research & development Education and training External drug sales to the private sector Hosting non-clinical services, such as the National Cancer Services Analysis Team. In CCO’s accounts income for these services matches expenditure and therefore there is no impact on the Trust’s EBITDA and overall I&E surplus. Support from charities and recharges to other NHS and non-NHS bodies.

Investment Activity The Trust invested £2.5 million in capital expenditure on buildings and replacement of capital equipment in 2011/12. The main schemes were: x x x

£1.58 million to replacement, upgrade and enhance medical equipment at the Centre £0.87 million to refurbish the Trust’s buildings. £0.08 million to replacement IM&T equipment.

All of the above building projects represented investments in assets that are protected to deliver cancer services to our patients as part of the core business of the Trust, with the expectation that the improvements will build on the existing high standard of care provided. Although the expenditure of £2.5 million in 2011/12 is relatively low compared to recent years (for example, the comparable figure was £10.5 million) the Trust is planning capital expenditure in 2012/13 of £9.8 million, and a further £8.7 million over the following 2 years. The main schemes will be to commence the final phase of the ward refurbishment programme, provide for an additional MRI scanner and continue with its on-going equipment enhancement and replacement programme. A number of projects are also planned to improve Information Management and Technology services at the Trust. Looking to the future, the Trust is currently working to produce a business case to support investment in a new cancer centre run by Clatterbridge Cancer Centre in the centre of Liverpool. The project is currently at strategic outline case stage, and if successfully approved would expected to be completed by 2018. Charitable Funding The Board of CCO are also the Corporate Trustee of Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology Charitable Funds. During 2011/12 £444k has been spent by the charity in support of the Foundation Trust. The main areas of expenditure were: 11

Going Concern The following financial accounts statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. After making enquiries the directors have a reasonable expectation that the NHS Foundation Trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the accounts. Accounting Policies Accounting policies comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and a full list of these policies is included as part of the Annual Accounts.

Patient Care Performance against key targets 2011/12 18 weeks performance CCO has performed well (all figures are currently YTD) against the existing requirements to see and treat patients within 18 weeks, whether they are admitted or non-admitted. Performance against these key targets is as follows: x 96.9% of admitted patients were seen within 18 weeks from the initial GP referral to treatment (target threshold 90%) x 97.8% of non admitted patients were seen within 18 weeks from initial GP referral to treatment (target threshold 95%). x RTT admitted (95th percentile target of 23.0 weeks) performance is 15.6 weeks x RTT non-admitted (95th percentile target of 18.3 weeks) performance is 15.2 weeks. Additionally non Cancer Waiting time’s specific performance can be seen as follows: x No patient has waited longer than 6 weeks (target 13 weeks) for Imaging (CT and MRI at CCO) x We have had 1 incidence of a MRSA bacteraemia (our target is no more than 0). x We have had 8 incidences of Clostridium Difficile (our target is no more than 8) Cancer Waiting Times performance All Cancer Waiting Time targets were included for all of 2011/12. All figures are currently Year to Date. Performance is as follows:

x x x x x x

There were no direct English GP referrals and therefore the 2 week waiting rule has not been invoked. 97.9% of patients were treated within 31 days from the time of decision to treat for first treatments (target threshold 96%) 98.8% of patients were treated within 31 days from the time of decision to treat for Chemotherapy subsequent treatments (target threshold 98%) 97.0% of patients were treated within 31 days from the time of decision to treat for Radiotherapy subsequent treatments (target threshold 94%) 80.1% of patients were treated within 62 days (Classic) from the date of urgent GP referral (threshold 79%). The Trust will not be monitored against the 62 day screening pathway since insufficient numbers of patients were referred and therefore the ‘de minimus’ rule comes into being.

The 62 day cancer waiting time standard This target continues to be a challenge for the Trust due to the fact that as a Tertiary centre we are the last in the patient pathway to receive the patient and this occurs in many incidences after the 62 day timescale has already been reached. Further work across the Network of which CCO is a partner will continue to review Patient Pathways in order to improve the efficiency and effectiveness where appropriate. Regulatory ratings The Regulator (Monitor) assesses the performance of Foundation Trusts quantifying performance in two distinct categories: Financial and Governance. For 2010/11 in their assessments of the Annual Plan, Monitor determined that the Trust should be awarded a financial risk rating of ‘4’ which was subsequently improved to a ‘5’ for the quarterly performance in the latter part of the year (the best possible financial risk rating). In 2011/12 the Trust received a financial risk rating of ‘4’ for the annual plan which is predicted to have improved to a ‘5’ for each of the quarterly performance reports.

In quarter 1 the Trust received an Amber-Red rating which was due to failing both the C. Difficile (C.diff) and 62 day classic targets. During this quarter the Trust introduced a more sensitive C.diff testing methodology and consequently identified more cases than under the previous methodology. The Trust acknowledges that meeting the C.diff target will continue to be a challenge due to the low 13

14


target, the use of broad spectrum antibiotics in immunosuppressed patients and the increased sensitivity of the new methodology. Failure of this target was also the reason for the Amber-Green rating in quarter 2. The Trust does not believe it can meet the 62 day cancer screening target in its current form due to the late point at which it receives referrals and continues to work with referring Trusts to improve the pathways in respect of this target. Although the Trust breached the C.diff target in quarters 1 and 2, we are pleased to report that for the year the Trust was compliant with 8.

For the majority of the year the Trust received Green ratings with the exception of quarters 1 and 4 when it received Amber-Green ratings. In quarter 1 this was due to failing the Clostridium difficile (C-diff) target which the Trust had an objective for 2010/11 to have fewer than 12 cases. For quarterly reporting purposes the target is calculated at 3 per quarter. Although the Trust breached the target for quarter 1 reporting 6 cases, it was pleased to report that for the year the Trust was compliant with 10 cases. In quarter 4 this was due to failing the 31 day radiotherapy subsequent and MRSA screening targets. The Trust reviewed its waiting list management and earliest clinically appropriate date for treatment as part of its action plan to address the 31 day cancer target. In relation to the MRSA screening target, the Trust held discussions with its commissioners and the SHA regarding the removal of the requirement for repeat screening of patients who attend frequently for chemotherapy. This target was subsequently removed in 2011/12. Care Quality Commission (CQC) Assessment and Review Independent Risk Management Assessments Unannounced Inspection by the Care Quality Commission The Trust has not been subject to any inspections from the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in 2011 / 2012. Achievement of NHSLA level 3 In November 2010 the Trust was again successfully assessed against NHSLA level 3 (the highest available). The assessment reflects the Trust’s robust risk management systems and processes and the extent to which a risk aware culture is embedded in the organisation.

Maintenance of ISO 9001:2008 Standard The ISO 9001:2008 Standard is a national (externally assessed) standard based around the principles of customer satisfaction, a systematic approach to management, and encouraging a culture of continual improvement across all departments within the Trust. CCO is thought to have been the first NHS Trust to achieve this accreditation for the organisation as a whole. The accreditation is reviewed periodically and it is pleasing to report that it has been retained throughout 2011/12. Patient Environment Action Team (PEAT) During the year the Patient Environment Action Team undertook an assessment for environment, food and privacy and dignity. The results of this assessment show the Trust continues to provide the highest quality of care with all three areas receiving ‘excellent’ ratings. Progress towards targets as agreed with local commissioners The Trust agreed a number of targets with its commissioners as CQUINS (Commissioning for Quality and Innovation Payment Framework) initiatives. These are: x Reduce avoidable death, disability and chronic ill health from VenousͲthromboembolism (VTE) x Improve responsiveness to personal needs of patients x To review and develop the acute oncology scheme x To study and pilot alternative care settings for chemotherapy x Improve patient experience of waiting times at Trust and satellite clinics x Trial to examine costs & benefits of in vivo dosimetry x Improve the communication between clinicians and patients x Implement national cancer strategy recommendations and stretch targets The monetary total for the amount of income in 2011/12 conditional upon achieving quality improvement and innovation goals was £812,909, and the monetary total for the associated payment in 2010/11recieved was £809k. Equality Public Sector organisations have been required to demonstrate how they are actively working to reduce health inequalities by promoting equality and working to eliminate discrimination, whilst maintaining a commitment to respect human rights. Moreover, they need to demonstrate the outcomes of this work, in particular, showing how they have assessed the impact of policies, strategies and action plans on the local population and its workforce. Part of the Equality Act 2010 specific duties, which came into force on 10th September 2011, requires that public sector bodies should: x x x

Publish Information outlining how they will comply with the general duty by 31/1/2012. Publish details on their workforce breakdown and the local population by various equality denominations e.g. age, race etc., by 31/1/2012. Undertake a revised equality screening process to replace equality impact assessments called an Equality Analysis, in functions, services and policies. 15

16


x x

Formulate one objective for each protected characteristic, by 5th of April 2012. All information published on how they will meet the equality duty must be presented in such a manner that it is accessible to the public.

Aims of the Equality Duty Assurance Report In creating an inaugural equality duty assurance report (published on 31st January 2012) CCO is not only aiming to ensure that it is meeting the legal duties to promote equality and challenge unlawful discrimination, but also to ensure that consideration of equality and human rights issues is incorporated into day-to-day practice across the organisation. Intended outcomes will be equal access to services for all groups and reduced health inequalities and improved health outcomes for patients. Safeguarding employees across the protected characteristics and a commitment to advance equality of opportunity across the organisation are also key components. The document aims to provide reassurance that the strategic direction of CCO for promoting equality and eliminating discrimination since April 2011 underpins its adherence to the general duty of the Equality Act 2010 and binding specific duties of the equality duty. Moreover, it may serve as a stepping stone towards formulating strategies and actions that build upon the previous achievements made, under the single equality scheme (2009-2012) and related equality action plans. Scope of the Equality Duty Assurance Report This equality duty assurance report sets out the commitment of the Trust in how it will endeavour to adhere to statutory obligations, building upon progress achieved under previous equality schemes and directives. Workforce Analysis Report 2011 This report (published on 31st January 2012) looks at the profiles of people accessing workforce and employment related opportunities at CCO, based on requirements defined within the new single equality duty and related elements within other equality and employment legislation and it accompanies the Equality Duty Assurance Report (see above). The report looks at the profiles of people accessing workforce and employment related opportunities at CCO, based on requirements defined within the new single equality duty and related elements within other equality and employment legislation. Recommendations from both reports will help inform the inaugural equality strategy, as directed by the requirements of the new public sector single equality duty, which came into effect from 5th of April 2011, as the second tranche of legislation emanating from the Equality Act 2010. Both reports are published in the Equality & Diversity section of the CCO website.

Developing our Services Chemotherapy The Trust provides chemotherapy primarily for solid tumour patients for the population of the Merseyside and Cheshire Cancer Network. An oncologist service is also provided to the Isle of Man. The service model is based on providing safe and effective care and treatment as close to the patient’s home as possible providing choice where possible and clinically appropriate. During 2011/12 we have seen significant growth in our chemotherapy activity and we are currently delivering approximately 3,000 spells per month. Over 90% of the treatments are delivered in outpatient clinics with 70% of patients receiving their treatment at a clinic close to their home. These clinics are located at: x x x x x x x x x

CCO: Delamere Day case unit Countess of Chester Hospital Halton Hospital: Can Treat Centre Southport Hospital Aintree University Hospital: Marina Dalglish Centre Royal Liverpool Hospital: Linda McCartney Centre Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital Liverpool Women’s Hospital St Helen’s Hospital: Lilac Centre

The inpatient facility is on the Clatterbridge site and is delivered primarily on Sulby Ward with some chemotherapy being given on Conway Ward (e.g. 5FU) for patients also receiving radiotherapy. The chemotherapy is delivered by specialist chemotherapy nurses who are trained to assess patients when they attend for treatment and to decide whether or not to proceed with the chemotherapy on that day or refer the patient back for medical review. Many clinics now operate a nurse delivered model of care which enables reduced patient waiting times, improved quality and efficiency. A key development for us during 2011/12 was the commencement of a feasibility study looking at the provision of chemotherapy delivered in the community comparing chemotherapy delivery in patient’s homes, within a GP setting and versus the traditional hospital setting. We will be widening the study during 2012/13 to also look at the use of a mobile clinic. The aim of this study is to continue to provide chemotherapy as close to where the patient lives as possible to provide safe and effective care whilst continually improving the patient experience. Pharmacy Outpatients & Homecare The need to continue to improve the patient experience has been the rationale for adopting models of care that are more community focused. This approach improves the dispensing of outpatient prescriptions and the expansion into homecare delivery services, which will increase patient choice and access to medicines, as well as enhancing the patient experience through reduced waiting times. 17

18


The Trust will continue to implement the transformational change required to deliver a fit for purpose outpatient pharmacy service that will allow patients to be put first, staff to remain empowered to apply their professional expertise, and for operational and financial efficiencies to be unlocked. This will allow CCC to compete with other commercial organisations offering dispensing and homecare. Radiotherapy Radiotherapy is delivered on both the Clatterbridge Health Park site and at The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre, Liverpool (CCCL) which has given patients real choice as to where they have their radiotherapy. Overall the radiotherapy service has seen growth in the region of 2% so far in 2011/12 with an expected total of around 89,000 radiotherapy treatments of external beam radiotherapy being delivered by the end of the financial year. Growth is predicted to be 1.9% p.a. or more for the next few years and detailed modelling is underway to ensure capacity is available as required. The development of the satellite radiotherapy provision has improved patient experience for those treated nearer to home and has also enabled an increase in the provision of Stereotactic Radiosurgery. The service treats Acoustic Neuromas, arteriovenous malformation (AVMs) and some brain metastases. CCCL treats in the region of 100 patients per day, all outpatients and mainly those being treated for breast, lung, or prostate tumours. A key innovation at CCCL has been the establishment of Radiographer-led review of patients at this site. CCCL has three Linacs all capable of delivering a range of techniques including Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) and Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT). The Clatterbridge main site has 9 Linacs with 7 being used clinically each day and 2 as service efficiency machines which allows for great flexibility in the service. There are a wide range of very complex treatments being delivered at this site including Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy and considerable amounts of IMRT and IGRT. The Physics Department has provided mentorship and support to other centres setting up IMRT programs. Brachytherapy has also seen advances with the introduction of Papillon therapy, Image Guided planning of patients being treated for cervical cancer. March 2012 will see the introduction of High Dose Rate Brachytherapy for prostate cancer which will complement the low dose rate service already offered. In 2012 there is a planned replacement of one of the planning CT scanners which will further improve image quality for planning of radiotherapy and an upgrade to the computer planning systems. The installation of a second MRI scanner at CCO will also enable more MR planning to be carried out and there is a drive to explore the use of PET:CT planning in 2012/13. Patient information evenings were piloted at CCCL in 2011 which proved successful in reducing the anxiety levels of patients who had not yet started treatment. In 2012 we will pilot a similar scheme at the Clatterbridge site although with significant modification due to the range of treatments being delivered.

Inpatient Services and Triage The majority of CCC’s cancer care is most appropriately delivered in an out patient setting. However, the clinical needs of some patients or the nature of the treatments provided entails an in patient stay for one or more nights. Inpatient services are provided on three wards, Sulby, Mersey and Conway – giving a total of 71 beds. Within that bed capacity there is a dedicated Teenage and Young Adult unit based on Sulby ward with 4 en suite rooms and a central communal area. Patients between the ages of 18 and 24 where possible are cared for within this area. This is the Principle Treatment Centre for the Merseyside and Cheshire Cancer Network. Within Conway Ward there is a dedicated 2 bedded area that has been developed for the management of acutely unwell patients. The aim of these beds is to provide an area where there is a higher ratio of nursing staff to patients (1 nurse to 2 patients) enabling patients to be monitored more closely. The Critical Care Nurse Practitioners provide support to both nursing and medical staff when patients need a higher level of care than is usually required in the ward environment. The overall aim of these beds is to enable some patients who, in the past, might have been transferred to another hospital, to receive extra support to remain at the hospital and continue treatment, or enable patients to be stabilised and transferred safely to other hospitals when required. Conway and Sulby ward have been refurbished in recent years to provide a ward environment that is suitable for our patients with an increase in single rooms and washing facilities. Bays now have only 3 beds with a bathroom/ shower room for each bay. Mersey ward will be refurbished in a similar way in 2012. A key objective of the Trust is to provide more treatments in the outpatient setting. The result of this is a general reduction over time in the number of inpatient beds required, however the acuity of patients requiring inpatient care is increasing. It has been identified that patients requiring admission in an emergency, generally as a result of toxicities caused by their cancer treatment or oncology emergencies, require rapid assessment and treatment. The current ward configuration is being redesigned to meet these needs and the refurbished Mersey ward will incorporate an emergency admissions unit to cohort this group of patients to one area facilitating rapid assessment and commencement of treatment. To support this, the telephone triage service is being expanded to provide telephone advice to all patients receiving treatment at the Trust. This will also be the link to the Acute Oncology services across the network, providing a single point of contact for patients and health professionals seeking support or advice. The refurbished Mersey ward will also have a planned short stay area predominately for patients undergoing theatre procedures or treatments with a short defined length of stay, enabling this area to close over weekends thus increasing the efficiency of the inpatient service. The theatre service provides a variety of brachytherapy treatments that includes low and high dose rate radiotherapy along with assisting in the planning and delivering of other forms of radiotherapy such as implants that provide reference markers for treatment planning, and examinations under anaesthetic. The demand for invasive and closely targeted radiotherapy treatments is likely to increase in the future and theatre services aim to be at the forefront of the development of this form of radiotherapy.

The priorities for development of the inpatient service over the next 5 years will be to ensure nursing staff have the competencies to provide high quality, safe and effective care to an increasingly unwell and elderly patient group in a safe and conducive environment, whilst reducing length of stay, improving discharge planning, and preventing unnecessary admissions. Holistic, patient centred care forms the heart of the inpatient service which acknowledges the need not only to provide the highest quality cancer treatments but support to patients to return home safely at the end of their care. Inpatient nursing services also work closely with the Specialist Palliative Care Team and Cancer Rehabilitation and Support Team (CReST) Team supporting patients to manage their illness, promote independence and ensuring patients at the end of their lives have a dignified death in their preferred place of care. Diagnostic Imaging The Diagnostic Imaging Department primarily provides diagnostic, staging, re-staging and follow-up investigations for patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy at CCO or satellite clinics. Imaging services are also provided to the local GPs and Wirral Hospital University Trust (WUHT) via Service Level Agreements. The Diagnostic Imaging Department has four internal departments. These are: x x x x

CT MR Nuclear Medicine (gamma camera) X-ray and ultrasound

There is a CT scanner, an MR scanner and one SPECT CT gamma camera. A direct digital general x-ray room, a fluoroscopy room, an ultrasound scanner and a mobile x-ray set. The Trust hosts the Cheshire and Merseyside PET/CT service one and a half days a week. The service is provided by an independent sector company, Alliance Medical Limited, using a mobile scanner. One of the Trust’s Consultant Radiologists is part of the local PET/ CT reporting team. The Diagnostic Imaging Department supports the Research and Development activities of the Trust by providing scanning and reporting services and RECIST measurements as required at appropriate points in the patient journey. In 2012 a second MR scanner will be installed to provide additional capacity, equipment functionality and so allow further development of MR scanning for radiotherapy planning purposes. Supportive Care The definition of supportive care services for the development of service plans is that covered by the scope of the Supportive and Palliative Care Improving Outcomes Guidance (NICE). The key aims of the service are: x

To ensure that patients’ physical, psychological, spiritual, social and financial needs are assessed at key points such as diagnosis, at commencement of treatment, during

20

21


x x

and at the end of treatment, at relapse and when death is approaching, and that all possible steps are taken to ensure that these needs are met. Supportive care should be provided in a way that ensures effective interprofessional communication within teams and between them and other service providers with whom the patient has contact. The provision of supportive care services within CCO is diverse with roles and functions sitting within a number of directorates.

User involvement and support groups The Trust is committed to involving its stakeholders, including patients, in the design and development of its services. The framework for engagement is within the Trusts Patient Experience Strategy and is coordinated by the Patient Experience Manager providing advice and support to staff on appropriate methodology to ensure user involvement is meaningful. The Patient Experience Manager is supported by a Patients Council and PALs volunteers who provide a valuable patient / public perspective and are involved in a number of initiatives including participating in interview panels for CReST members. Further public involvement is greatly facilitated by the work of the Trust’s Council of Governors. A number of patient involvement initiatives and programmes are also in place to provide focused support and involvement. These include the following: x

The Teenage and Young Adult team facilitate a monthly support group for 16-24 year olds. This is a social group that aims to get young people from across the network meeting each other and enabling them to support each other through peer support.

x

The Lymphoedema Support Group provides support for patients with Primary and Secondary Lymphoedema and their carers.

x

The National Survivorship Initiative is an educational program as part of a National Study which aims to address patient self management of symptoms and side effects following cancer treatment. As each course is completed, an evaluation by the project leads informs subsequent courses to ensure that they meet the needs of the individual.

x

A Carer’s group is in place whose aim is to implement a carer’s assessment for the carers of all patients who attend the centre.

Information Information services are provided in three main ways: x

The Trust has a Macmillan Cancer Information and Support Services (MCISS). These are staffed by healthcare professionals supported by volunteers who provide a ‘meet and greet’ service. The service has established excellent relationships with support groups across the network and provides a listening ear to both patients and

21

22


carers and is able to signpost them to appropriate services within the Trust or their own local area. x

A comprehensive range of patient information leaflets are provided free to patients at key points in their care and treatment. The Trust has gained the Information Standard Accreditation for written information.

x

Health promotion advice is also provided through a number of events such as Pink (breast cancer) and Blue (men’s health) days providing focused information for specific tumour types.

Psychological support services The psychological support service is comprised of psychological medicine consultants, registrars, trained counsellors and a CLIC Sargent Clinical Psychologist for Teenage and Young Adult service (TYA) cross network post). Social support services A social worker and a Macmillan Welfare Benefits Advisor provide support to our patients. The Oncology Social Worker will liaise with the community Social Services Department, other local authority services and voluntary agencies and advocate on behalf of the patients who need care packages at home, residential/nursing home care, intermediate care, or have other problems at home. They also provide social and emotional support to the whole family. In addition we host two Cancer and Leukaemia in Childhood (CLIC) Sargent Social Workers within the TYA with one of these based at the Royal Liverpool University Hospital. Spiritual support services A chaplaincy service is provided via a service level agreement by Wirral University Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust (WHUT). The Trust is embedding the “Opening the Spiritual Gate� program. This involves raising awareness and developing skills amongst clinical staff regarding: x x x x

Understanding the meaning of spirituality Communication Recording and reporting Pulling it all together

A quiet room is available for patients and carers; this can also be used for religious observance, although no religious artefacts are kept within this area. General palliative care including care of dying patients General palliative care is provided by staff within the wards. The Trust has implemented the Liverpool Care Pathway for the Dying Patient. The use of the pathway is audited and 22

reported to Integrated Governance on an annual basis by the specialist palliative care team who include this information in their annual report. A project has commenced in early 2012 to implement further end of life care tools. The Trust’s refurbishment programme has included an increase in single rooms improving the environment for the dying patient. The Trust has a specialist palliative care team which compromises a Consultant in Palliative Medicine and a team of specialist palliative care nurses, one of whom is a Macmillan post holder. There is also a palliative and supportive care coordinator. The nursing team provides a 7 day 9-5 face to face service. Rehabilitation services Rehabilitation services are provided by clinical and support staff who make up the Cancer Rehabilitation and Support Team (CReST) as detailed above. Developments within the Rehabilitation services include: x The late effects clinic (LEC). x On-Track. A project awarded the 2012 Inspire Mark utilising access to sport, educational and vocational activities to support people of all ages following treatment for cancer. x Moving Forward/ IMPACT (Information for Self Management Program After Cancer Treatment). A project part of the National Cancer Survivorship Initiative (NCSI) set up to help patients better manage post treatment symptoms and long term side effects of pelvic cancers. x Older Person’s Pilot Project – A pilot testing: o new methods of clinical assessment of older people with a diagnosis of cancer o coordinating and delivering short-term practical support packages for older people undergoing treatment o promoting age equality to address age discriminatory behaviour in cancer services. Complementary therapy services The Trust provides a hand and foot massage service to patients via its volunteer service. A dedicated complementary therapy service and room is available to patients providing massage, aromatherapy and reflexology sessions, delivered by trained and registered therapists. Services for families and careers, including bereavement care The Trust has a ‘day after death service’ which provides an individual service for relatives/next of kin of the deceased to attend the Trust following the death of the patient. This involves: x

Overview of education and training The Clinical Education Department at CCO is committed to promoting the quality of care for people with cancer through education and professional development. The Department offers a range of educational programs such as study days, short courses and degree level modules which are aimed at health and social care practitioners and support staff who have an interest in cancer care. The department is also able to accommodate the educational needs of individual organisations upon request. Clinical Education runs a number of oncology programmes and pathways in association with both the Faculty of Health and Social Care University of Chester, and the University of Liverpool Modules may be taken as stand-alone modules, or used to contribute towards a diploma or degree pathway. Some programmes are available as distance learning. In 2008 the Trust has developed in partnership with the Faculty of Health and Social Care Board of Studies at the University of Chester a Practice Development and Research Partnership (PDRP). The aims of the PDRP are to develop, extend and increase research and practice development activities and projects whilst building on individual and team skills, confidence, knowledge and experience. The partnership also aims to link together practice development, research and education. The Trust also delivers Advanced Imaging Clinical Schools to visiting delegates from all around the world, on behalf of Varian Medical Systems. In 2005, we became the first oncology centre in the United Kingdom to install a linear accelerator with an On-Board Imager (OBI) system. The OBI is a state-of-the-art imaging device that can be used to improve the accuracy of patient positioning and to allow the tracking of tumour motion. Varian subsequently chose us, as pioneers in the use of this equipment, to host and deliver training courses for their customers. In September 2007, we provided Europe’s first training school on Image-Guided Radiotherapy (IGRT) to an audience of oncologists, physicists and radiographers from Russia, Norway, Italy, Spain and Scotland. In April 2010, the School was expanded to include Respiratory Gating and Varian’s Real-time Position Management (RPM) system as well. The RPM system allows the movement of a patient’s tumour to be correlated with their breathing, thereby offering the possibility of delivering radiotherapy treatment in only part of the breathing cycle. The Schools have been run every year since 2007 on four or five occasions per year, typically in February, April, June, September and November. CCO runs an annual "Radiobiology & Radiobiological Modelling in Radiotherapy" course for delegates from around the world. The course provides a greater understanding about both the basis of radiation treatment for cancer and the use of radiobiological modelling in evaluating and improving treatments. This event brings together some of the world's leading experts in a specialist but increasingly important subject area - for this reason it attracts global interest. In July 2010 the course received full endorsement from E.S.T.R.O., Europe’s leading Radiotherapy Society. The Trust is a training site for a range of pre-registration radiotherapy students. The students are placed within the radiotherapy department for the majority of their clinical training. The Trust also provides clinical placements for nursing students. 24

Overview of research and development The establishment of a comprehensive cancer centre based at the new Royal site will bring together state of the art facilities, academia and key NHS partners. This will strengthen existing research collaborations and enable new ones to develop. CCO is a member of the Liverpool Health Partners (LHP) and the Liverpool CRUK Cancer Centre. These important alliances support CCO’s strategic goal to secure a national reputation for excellence in research. The Trust continues to actively support the development of the Academic Unit of Oncology. CCO recognises the importance of such academic leadership and sees it as an excellent opportunity to strengthen its relationship with the University of Liverpool. The Academic Unit is led by Professor Dan Palmer (Chair of Medical Oncology) and will seek to attract external research funding from the National Institute for Health Research, local and national charities, as well as from pharmaceutical industry collaborations. The Trust has recently invested in a number of research posts to support the development of an early phase trials portfolio at its satellite clinic in the Royal Liverpool Hospital. This work will come under the umbrella of the Liverpool Early Drug Development Unit (LEDDU), which is a collaboration between CCO, the University of Liverpool and the Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals NHS Trust. The Trust has also committed to fund a Chair of Radiation Oncology, Senior Lecturer and Senior Physicist to further strengthen the Academic Unit. Following a national review of radiotherapy research, the National Cancer Research Institute (NCRI) established the Clinical and Translational Radiotherapy (CTRad) Working Group. CTRad has a broad, strategic remit to develop an ambitious portfolio of practice changing trials. Several CCO employees are members of the different CTRad work streams, which focus on basic science, phase I-II trials, phase III trials, new technologies and quality assurance. The development of a locally-led, internationally competitive portfolio of radiation oncology research is a key objective for CCO. Research Leads and workshops We have appointed Research Leads in both Chemotherapy and Radiation Oncology. These individuals have been charged with driving the development of research in key clinical areas. The following multi-disciplinary research workshops have been established: x x x x x x x

Lung cancer Rarer cancers (ocular and cutaneous melanoma, gynae and brain) Breast cancer Urological cancers GI cancers Acute Oncology / support care Head and neck cancers

These workshops are responsible for developing new research proposals suitable for submission to national funding calls. The Chair of Medical Oncology and Senior Lecturer are active members of these workshops. Representatives from the Liverpool Cancer Trials Unit are also in attendance. 25

Physics Research Group The CCO Physics Research Group has enhanced the Trust capabilities in relation to radiological modelling and radiation dosimetry applicable to clinical radiotherapy. Software has been developed that enables external beam radiotherapy to be optimised in terms of maximising local control. Due to active collaborations with colleagues in Vancouver, Cardiff and Liverpool University Computing Department we are very close to possessing a comprehensive Monte-Carlo based patient dose computation facility. The Douglas Cyclotron The Trust has the only Proton Therapy Facility in the United Kingdom for the treatment of eye cancers. Patients are referred from all over the UK and Ireland. The Unit has a long standing collaboration with the National Physical Laboratory (London) on proton dosimetry, which has included graphite calorimetry, proton ionometry and other detectors such as alanine pills, Pressage and BANG gels, and Gafchromic films. Monte-Carlo modelling of the beamline, using several codes, has been carried out in collaboration with the Physics Department of the University of Liverpool. Acute Oncology The Trust in partnership with Merseyside & Cheshire Cancer Network (MCCN) are at the forefront of service development in the new but rapidly evolving field of Acute Oncology which encompasses all aspects of emergency non surgical oncology care. A network of acute oncology services has now been implemented across the local network of acute hospitals. The services are provided by an acute oncology team employed by CCO but based in the acute hospitals. Gene Therapy The Trust has been involved in early phase gene therapy work for the past three years. We have a number of clinical oncologists with experience in this area. The Trust has a dedicated gene therapy suite within our pharmacy department and we are currently registered with the Health & Safety Executive for Class 1 and 2 studies. All our gene therapy work is conducted via our Trusts' Gene Therapy Committee and in accordance with robust gene therapy governance systems, processes and a full set of gene therapy specific standing operating procedures, and a gene therapy code of practice. The Merseyside and Cheshire Cancer Research Network (MCCRN) The Trust has hosted the MCCRN since its inception in 2002. The purpose of the MCCRN is to benefit patients by providing infrastructure and support to local NHS organisations and to increase recruitment of patients into National Institute for Health Research Clinical Research Network (NIHR CRN) cancer portfolio studies. It also aims to improve the integration, quality and speed of cancer research. The MCCRN serves a local population of circa 2.14 million and 12 Trusts, 5 of which are specialist Trusts. The MCCRN operates in a challenging

26

27


setting, compounded by complex service configurations but this is successfully managed by a highly mobile oncology team and supportive Clinical Nurse Specialist community. The NCRN is a target driven organisation with a commitment to achieve the high level objectives set out by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR). Its primary aim is to increase the number of cancer patients entered into NIHR studies and ensure they recruit to time and target (target recruitment is specified at local feasibility stage). A secondary objective is to continue to increase recruitment into randomised controlled trials (RCTs) beyond the original target of 7.5% of incidence cases. In Merseyside and Cheshire approximately 8800 patients with cancer or a pre malignancy have been recruited into clinical trials since the introduction of the MCCRN in 2002. Patient recruitment has increased from 4.8% in 2001/2 to 18.7% in 2010/11. CCO supports patient recruitment at its Wirral base and in its satellite clinics at ten NHS Trusts. The Trust has received national commendation for its high recruitment into a number of NIHR cancer studies. Developing our Workforce HR Policies and Processes The 2010 Equality Act contained a provision to create a single equality duty for public sector bodies. This year, we published our first Equality Duty Assurance Report, which confirmed that the Trust continues to promote Equality and eliminate discrimination in line with our legal duty. The Trust’s Equality, Diversity & Human Rights Steering Group (EDHRSG) advises the Trust Board, and endorses a range of initiatives, reports and actions. The Disability Sub-Group of the EDHRSG has representatives of staff, patients, carers and volunteers. The Group continues to advise on improvements to the experiences of disabled patients, including ensuring that information is available in a range of formats. For example, the Trust engaged with the Deaf Community to host a multi-professional half-day session to offer more information on cancer and its treatments. The Group is also considering ways of encouraging greater self-declaration of disability by staff. Our annual Workforce Equality Analysis collected data across each protected characteristic, made comparisons with our local population, and produced recommendations for improvements in policy and procedure. Foundation Trust Governors and members also form an important part of the Trust’s Equality Governance arrangements through participation in various Groups and forums. Staff Survey The Trust used a variety of methods to communicate and engage with its staff this year, in addition to the Team Brief process and the various formal Consultative, Negotiating and Health and Safety Committees. We held our annual Start the Year event in April, at which staff were invited to discuss the Trust’s annual plans and targets with the Executive Directors. The Chief Executive held Open Forums with staff throughout the year, to give them the opportunity to hear directly from him, and to ask questions.

27

28


Staff are also kept up to date by the Trust’s intranet site, and the staff newsletter. As we plan our future service strategies, we will place the utmost importance on the engagement and involvement of our staff. The Trust achieved impressive results from the National Staff Survey carried out in 2011, scoring above average for acute specialist Trusts in 26 out of the 38 key findings. There was no change in our performance from 2010 in 37 of the 38 findings, with 1 finding showing a decrease in performance. We achieved the best score amongst our reference group of specialist acute Trusts in 11 of the key findings. In summary: x x x

The response rate fell by 2% compared with 2010 There was one key finding, concerning attendance at health and safety training, where our score deteriorated compared with 2010.

Future priorities and targets The proportion of staff reporting working additional hours, and experiencing work-related stress, will be addressed through the Trust’s Health and Wellbeing Plan, part of our revised Human Resources and Organisational Development Strategy. We will review the support available to staff experiencing stress, and develop a Workforce Plan to ensure that we have the right number of staff available with the right skills. A further Stress Audit will be carried out early this year. Attendance at Health and Safety training will be monitored through a revised training management system, and reported to the Trust’s Integrated Governance Committee. This training will emphasise the importance of reporting errors or near-misses, including any instances of physical violence. Through the implementation of our HR & OD Strategy, in partnership with our staff organisations, we aim to make further improvements to our working environment, and become an employer of choice. Improvements following Patient Surveys and Care Quality Commission Reports The Trust consistently scores in the top 20% of all Trusts in the majority of questions in the national CQC patient survey. However, we recognise that there is always scope for improvement. Key areas of service improvement following the review of the survey have included: x x x x x x x

Improvements in patient/carer information Throughout 2011/12 we have continued the programme of ongoing improvement of the information provided to our patients and carers. We are accredited by The Information Standard for our internally produced patient information leaflets proving our commitment to providing trustworthy health and social care information for our patients. The Information Standard mark signposts trustworthy information, so the public can find it quickly and easily. The process of accreditation has resulted in improved governance processes around information production and document control allowing us to demonstrate to the public that our information is both credible and reliable. Complaints handling The Trust continues to have a low number of complaints (14 in 2011/12). Complaints are managed by our Patient Experience Manager who provides an integrated complaints, PALs and patient and public involvement service and who forms part of our Clinical Governors Support Team. All complaints are reviewed and responded to by the Chief Executive. Information on complaints and lessons learned are shared with all staff via our Team Brief and information provided to the public via annual clinical governance road shows held in public areas of the Trust. The Council of Governors Patient Experience Committee receives complaints/PALs quarterly reports, and on a quarterly basis review the handling of complaints received during that time.

Partnerships and Alliances Clatterbridge Cancer Charity (formerly Clatterbridge Your Cancer Centre) 2011/12 has seen The Clatterbridge Cancer Charity go from strength to strength, raising a massive ÂŁ1.2million to help our patients and their families, a 20% increase on the previous year. Such a result really demonstrates how committed our supporters are, that during a time when the nation is tightening its belt, they are giving so generously to allow us to continue the work we do. We would never have been able to achieve so much this year without the continued support from our charity volunteers, donors and fundraisers. 30

Every year, thousands of people raise vital funds for The Clatterbridge Cancer Charity, the only charity directly raising money for Clatterbridge cancer patients and their families. Their donations help us to fund vital research, up to date treatment, world class equipment and lifechanging support services, which would otherwise be unavailable. This year, the charity funded a number of projects at Clatterbridge, notably the full refurbishment of our Mould Room. Patient’s who have head and neck cancer, are fitted with masks here to allow absolute precision and improve safety for our patients during treatment. This £100,000 appeal allowed a full refurbishment of the unit, completely transforming the facilities we provide and changing the experience for hundreds of patients each year. The charity has also funded a number of cancer research programmes this year, exploring treatment for different types of cancer, aiming to reduce some of the more painful side effects of chemotherapy and a study into how a cancer diagnosis affects people on a personal and emotional level. Alongside these projects, the charity continues to fund services which enhance the lives of our patients and their families at a very difficult time in their lives, such as complementary therapy, counselling, a free wig service and gym equipment for our teenage patients, amongst many other of the services that make Clatterbridge such a unique and special cancer centre. Thank you to the thousands of individuals, groups, organisations, trusts and companies who have supported the charity over the last year, every single penny you have donated has helped to change lives. Further information about our charity can be found at www.clatterbridgecc.org.uk Development of Private Patient Facility The September 2011 Trust Board appointed PWC and Pinsents Mason as commercial and legal advisors to assist with production of a business case and commercial and legal advice as part of the subsequent procurement process. Private Patient Joint Venture As part of an extension of the services it provides the Trust is currently concluding a voluntary OJEU to establish a joint venture private patient facility with a private sector partner at its Clatterbridge site. At its April 2012 Trust Board, the Trust appointed a preferred partner. Subject to final negotiations, the Trust intends to open a Private Patient Facility with a private partner early in 2013. Academic Unit of Oncology We continue to work in partnership with Liverpool University to develop an academic unit of oncology and associated research developments. The Chair of Medical Oncology took up post in April 2011.

Governance NHS Foundation Trust Code of Governance All requirements of the Monitor Foundation Trust Code of Governance have been met in full. Council of Governors Working together with the Board During the last year our Board of Directors and Governors have worked together in a number of ways to ensure that the Governors’ views are understood and that they receive appropriate support. Since early 2010 the Senior Governor (or in their absence another public governor) has attended Board of Directors (known as Trust Board) meetings to ensure transparency between the Board and Council. To supplement the attendance of the Chair of Audit Committee at the Council meetings, the Trust implemented the attendance of a ‘public’ governor at the Audit Committee. This ensures that any matters identified are considered and where any action or improvement is needed. In preparing the Annual Plan, the Board must have regard to the views of the Council of Governors. The Council of Governors has been involved in the process of developing the Annual Plan through a number of forums: x The Board and Governors away day October 2011 x Chief executive presentations to the Council e.g. updates on performance, strategic and operational issues x The work of the Strategy Committee and their reports to the Council. In addition to that outlined above a ‘Public’ governor attends the Investment Committee to ensure Governor contribution to future developments for the organisation such as the investment in Liverpool. The Council of Governors have the responsibility to hold the Board of Directors to account for the performance of the Trust, to ensure this happens a ‘public’ governor has been in attendance at the Integrated Governance Committee. This gives the Council the opportunity to receive detailed information on a selection of key performance indicators and the Trusts approach to key areas. The Senior Governor has met with the Chairman throughout the year to ensure Governors are kept up to date on any developments within the Trust. In addition the Senior Governor has produced updates for Governors which were circulated electronically. Council of Governor’s roles and responsibilities and working arrangements The Governors are elected as part of an independent process managed by Electoral Reform Services, in line with the Trust constitution.

32

33


The Council of Governors meets at least 3 times per year in public and fulfils its legal obligations as outlined in the constitution. In addition to Council meetings, there are three Committees: Membership, Communications & Fundraising, Patient Experience and Strategy. The Council of Governors has revised and approved its standing orders to govern its conduct and provide a governance framework for its meetings which includes the development of its sub committees. Each of these committees has identified an Executive and a Non-Executive Director for advice purposes. In addition the Director of Nursing & Quality has a specific role in supporting and working with the Council of Governors playing a key role in developing links between the Board committees and the Council of Governors ensuring that key strategic themes are being addressed. During the year the development needs of Governors are also reviewed to ensure that they are able to fulfil their responsibilities. Throughout the year Governor information sessions have been held with presentations from Executive Directors and relevant external experts such as Auditors. During this financial year the Auditors were not requested to provide any non-audit services.

Composition of the Council of Governors The Council is made up of 28 Governors, public, staff and nominated organisations, serving a fixed three year term of office.

2013


We would like to express our thanks to former Public Governors: Alan Comyns, Denys Floyd and Tom Fisher; Staff Governors: Peter Benson; Nominated Governor: Jeremy Such. Each served as a Governor during 2011/12 for a period of time, and have since resigned from their role, not been re-elected or re-appointed or were ineligible for re-election as outlined in the constitution. We would like to offer our sympathies to the family of former Governor Celia Tryers, who sadly passed away in June 2011. Elections Election processes were held and completed in July and September 2011 and the outcomes were announced at the Annual Members Meeting on 29th September 2011. Declaration of Interests A copy of the Register of Interests is available via the Trust website www.clatterbridgecc.nhs.uk, alternatively you can contact Andrea Leather on 0151 482 7799 to request a copy. Remuneration Committee The Remuneration Committee consists of 6 governors, one of whom will act as Chair (who will have a casting vote) and decides the terms and conditions of office including the remuneration and allowances of the Non Executive Directors. Also see note 3.6 of the Annual Accounts. Nominations Committee (Non Executive Directors) Non Executive members of the Board including the Chairman are appointed (and removed) by the Council of Governors at a General Meeting, as outlined in the constitution. The Nomination (Appointment) Committee for the Non Executive Directors is made up of the Chairman (or the Vice Chairman if the Chairman is standing for re-appointment) and at least three elected Governors. This Nomination Panel is responsible for appointing Non Executive Directors by identifying appropriate candidates through a process of open competition, which takes account of the policy maintained by the Council of Governors and the skills and experience required. During this year the Nominations Committee has recommended the re-appointment of Louise Martin until 31st July 2013 and the appointment of Alison Hastings (with effect from January 2012 for an initial term of office of three years) which were subsequently approved by the Council of Governors at its meeting in November 2011. Both of these processes were in line with the Trust’s constitution.

Planning at North Cheshire Hospitals. Rob has particular interest and experience in service improvement initiatives and large scale organisational change projects. Alan White – Chairman Re-appointed by the Council of Governors (3rd term of office, 3 years) until July 2013. Alan was appointed as Chairman in 1999. Alan retired from Local Government following 10 years as Chief Executive of Wirral Metropolitan Council, the eighth largest organisation of its type in England, employing over 17,000 staff and with an operational budget of £360m, the chief executive role was both challenging and high profile. He led a successful bid for ‘City Challenge’ status as an inner city re-generation initiative developed by the then Secretary of State, Michael Heseltine. The initiative depended on the development of new partnerships between Wirral MBC and major business corporations, which included Lever Bros, General Motors and Mobil Oil. As Chair of the ‘City Lands Board’, the organisation established to lead the implementation, Alan led a 5-year programme of investment, which generated £37m of public sector and some £285m of private sector investment. Declaration of Interests The Chairman has no other significant commitments. A copy of the Register of Interests is available via the Trust website www.clatterbridgecc.nhs.uk, alternatively you can contact Andrea Leather on 0151 482 7799 to request a copy. Board & Committee meetings Appropriate Board Roles and Structure The Trust Board regularly reviews its committee structure to ensure that the organisation has in place appropriate structures to enable it to fulfil its purpose and the effectiveness of the Trust’s system of internal control and has adopted the Integrated Governance Model identified in the Integrated Governance Handbook 2005. Currently the structure is as follows: x x x x x x

Monthly Board meetings, except August (all meetings are closed to the public) Audit Committee (5 times per year) Integrated Governance Committee (bi-monthly) Remuneration Committee (Ad hoc) Nominations Committee (Ad hoc) ‘Task and Finish’ Committees: q Investment (bi-monthly with effect from February 2012)

The Board delegates specific functions to its committees identified within their terms of reference. The terms of reference of all Board committees are reviewed regularly as part of the annual review of the Constitution, Corporate Governance Manual and related policies led 39

40


by the Corporate Governance Manager and updated to reflect changes in the operating environment and best practice. In addition the Board conducts an annual review of the risks of delivering the annual plan as well as monitoring performance against the plan and ensuring risks are mitigated. Through the delivery of the annual plan any required changes to management processes and structures are identified. This may be done internally or with external expert advice (e.g. in 2011/12 the management structure for radiotherapy and diagnostic imaging was changed following an external report that the Trust commissioned from an imaging specialist). There is a system in place whereby there is a review of each Board meeting focusing on the content and performance of the Board agenda and the discussions and challenge. During 2011/12 this system was developed from an unstructured discussion to a structured written feedback supporting the discussion which enables the Chair to systematically review the performance of the Board meeting and to amend future agendas as required. The Trust considers that it operates a balanced and unified Board with particular emphasis on achieving an appropriate balance of skills and experience. This is reviewed as part of the Board development programme, as well as whenever a vacancy arises. Board Development The Board development program is developed using a dynamic approach ensuring there are ongoing development opportunities to strengthen capacity and performance and to enhance strategic functioning. The program of Board development is developed with input from reviews of Board effectiveness e.g. the output of the NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement Board Development Tool (BDT) and from an internal skills gaps analysis. Consideration is also given to the strategic challenges that the Board faces and new legislation that the Board needs to be appraised of. The Board has also taken advantage of external programmes which included individual board member participation in leadership development programs and the majority of the Board participating in a program focusing on quality ‘Boards on Board: ‘from the top’ program facilitated by the NHS Northwest Leadership Academy and the Institute for Healthcare Improvement. In addition to the use of the BDT a skills gaps analysis was undertaken to identify key topic areas for Board development. Board Effectiveness The Trust has embedded a robust approach to reviewing Board effectiveness. This is done at individual Board member level and as a corporate entity. Performance evaluation of the Chair is undertaken by the Senior Independent Director with input from the Senior Governor who then reviews the results with the Nominations Committee of the Council of Governors. The Chair undertakes the performance evaluations of the Non Executive Directors (NEDs). In addition, to enable Governors to observe the performance of the NEDs, the NEDs attended the Council of Governors meetings and during 2011/12 the 40

41


Trust Board has invited Governors to attend the Trust Board, Audit Committee, Integrated Governance Committee and the Investment Committee. The Chair undertakes the review of the performance of the Chief Executive. It is the responsibility of the Chief Executive to review the performance of the executive directors. In 2011/12 the Board commissioned the NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement to conduct a review of the Board using their Board Development Tool (BDT). Individual Development In addition to the Board development process, in February 2011 the Executive Directors as part of their personal development agreed to undertake a 360o appraisal process managed by John Davies, Executive Coaching and Management Consulting. The outcome of this process was completed during May 2011. Board Development Days The Board development day programme has continued and will build on delivering against needs identified through the use of the BDT, the survey of Board members on development needs and on going review of Board needs against the changing climate of the NHS. Development days have been and will continue to be developed both in house utilising internal skills and competencies and will use external facilitation where required. External Review of Performance In 2011/12 the Health Service Journal published a report called ‘Brilliant Boards’ (30th June 2011). This report identified that just three organisations were high performers across three perspectives. The Trust is one of these Boards. Following our involvement with the NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement Board Development Tool the coaches from the Leadership Academy who facilitated the Trust during this process published a further report in the HSJ ‘Board Brilliance Unpacked’ (12th April 2012) reporting on what is was like to work with a high performing Board. Board Mandatory Training It is essential that Board members, like all staff members undergo their mandatory training. For Board members this primarily focuses on the Boards role and responsibilities in relation to existing and new legislation. This is conducted on an annual basis. In March 2012 the Board undertook its mandatory training which included: x Fire Safety x Health & Safety x Bribery Act. Audit Committee The Audit Committee – chaired by Graham Morris - provides the central means by which the Trust Board ensures effective internal control arrangements are in place. In addition, the Audit Committee provides a form of independent check upon the executive arm of the Board. 41

42


During this year the Audit Committee undertook the following pieces of work to ensure the effective discharge of its responsibilities: x Committee review of the financial statements x Setting and reviewing progress of the annual internal audit plan using a risk-focused approach, linked to the controls assurance framework x Receiving regular reports from both Internal Audit and External Auditors x Agreeing and reviewing the work of the Trust’s counter fraud officer x Undertaking a self assessment of its work and effectiveness, and identifying any training needs x Reviewing and updating its terms of reference x Approving bad debt write offs and contract extensions. Integrated Governance Committee The role of the Integrated Governance Committee is to ensure that the appropriate governance structures are in place and operating effectively for: x x x x x

Investment Committee The role of the Investment Committee is to ensure that investments made by the Trust are in line with the Trust’s approved Investment Policy and that where authority to act as the investment decision maker is devolved elsewhere that those groups/committees are exercising their responsibilities in respect of investment decisions effectively. During the year the Investment Committee delivered against its terms of reference in particular: Reviewed and maintained the Trust’s Investment Policy Reported on its activities to the Trust Board Acted as the project sponsor for major investment decisions Assured itself that responsibility for the investment decision making role is discharged appropriately if it is devolved to other committees or groups x Reviewed all investment decisions to ensure that they are consistent with the Trust Board’s annual plans x Reviewed all investment decisions to ensure that external reporting requirements are met e.g. Monitor’s Compliance Framework, Risk Evaluation in Investment Decisions guidance. x x x x

Remuneration Committee The Remuneration Committee consists of the Chairman and other Non-Executive Directors and decides the terms and conditions of office including the remuneration and allowances of the Executive Directors, including pension rights and any compensation payments. The Committee is chaired by the Chairman and has met on 2 occasions, see table below. Also see note 3.6 of the Annual Accounts. Nomination Committee The Nomination / Appointment Committee for a Chief Executive is made up of the Non Executive Directors, chaired by the Chairman. The appointment is subject to the approval of a majority of the members of the Council of Governors present and voting at a general meeting.

*Within its Annual Plan 2011/12 the Trust’s was to preserve the current membership levels whilst developing ways to engage with younger people and hard to reach groups whilst maintaining the public membership with no fewer than 5,500. As outlined in the table above, the number of public members has continued to grow with 70 new members joining the Trust. A large proportion of our members come from our patient population. The number of public members identified as ‘leaving’ is predominantly due to members dying (96 out of 262) rather than opting to stop being a member. The majority of the remaining 166 have been picked up as being members who have moved home without notifying the Trust, which is highlighted following circulation of articles such as the Trust magazine. Membership Strategy The Trust has a Membership Strategy that is reviewed by the Membership, Communications and Fundraising Committee of the Council of Governors (CoG) and approved by the full Council of Governors. The Committee receives a progress report on membership activity at each of its meetings. The Membership Strategy was reviewed during 2011and approved by the full Council of Governors at its meeting on 19th January 2012. The review process ensured it encompassed guidance contained within the Monitor Code of Governance. In particular the Committee considered: x How to best engage with our members x How we communicate with members x How to engage with hard to reach groups such as ethnic minorities x How we ensure ease of access for members to the Governors x How we address equality and diversity issues x How to encourage members to partake in Governor elections. 45

Public Interest Disclosures The Trust has in place a full range of HR policies to support staff and advise managers. The Trust engages in formal and informal consultation with staff to ensure a partnership approach is in place. Formal consultation primarily occurs via the Trust’s JCNF (Joint Consultative and Negotiating Forum) and the LNC (Local Negotiating Forum). Start of Year Events are held with the Chief Executive and Executive Directors to address staff directly when any service changes are proposed (e.g. our plans for investment in Liverpool). In addition the Trust Board engages staff through the Patient Safety Campaign leadership rounds where Executive and Non Executive Directors visit all departments on a rotational basis. Staff are informed about policy changes via the monthly Team brief which is cascaded throughout the organisation. During the year Executive Directors have undertaken a ‘job shadowing’ programme across all areas of the Trust. This process has enabled the Executive’s to gain a clearer understanding of working processes within departments that are outside of their portfolios. It is also an opportunity for staff to demonstrate their areas of expertise and knowledge and discuss how improvements in service could be accommodated. The Trust continues to enhance its intranet with input from staff across the organisation and give staff access to a variety of information eg rumour board, policies and corporate documents, communications, human resources and learning development. During 2011/12 the Trust launched a consultation to propose changing its name to ‘Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust’. The alternative was to maintain the existing name. The rationale for this proposal will be to adopt a name that: x x x

resonates with the purpose and history of the organisation can be used flexibly and without confusion at the multiple locations at which the Trust delivers its service can be aligned with the name and branding of the Trust’s charity (which would also be renamed).

The outcome of the consultation was then considered by the Board at its meeting in December 2011 and the Board approved the name change to: The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust. The name change was then recommended and subsequently approved by the Council of Governors on 23rd January 2012. The Independent Regulator, Monitor approved the request to amend the Trust’s constitution allowing the Trust’s name to be revised from “Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology NHS Foundation Trust” to “The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust” with effect from 1st April 2012. The Regulator confirmed that the constitution changes requested were consistent with schedule 7 of the NHS Act 2006 and otherwise appropriate. There were no serious incidents involving data loss or confidentiality breach to report during this year. Patient and Public Involvement Activity During 2011/12 the Trust has continued to engage with patients and stakeholders to further develop its services. Activities have included:

46

x

The Trust holds an annual open event for LINks (Local Involvement Networks) members and representatives from local OSC’s which focuses on our Quality accounts. This year’s event was in November. The feedback is very positive.

x

The Patient’s Council has continued to assist us with: o Local surveys o Lay reading of new documentation o Engaging with current patients o Staff interviews

Since June 2007 the Trust has given every patient completing a course of treatment at the centre a patient experience feedback from to ensure that the Trust has ‘real time’ information about the patient’s experience which it can act upon. This has proved an effective method of monitoring our services and consolidating good work that goes on all around the centre. Results are available on the Trust website. We received 3800 forms this year which has provided valuable information for the Trust. The views and experiences of people who use our services have influenced our service priorities and plans through a number of mechanisms. These include: x x x x x x

Our Patient and Public Involvement Strategy Our Governors and members as a Foundation Trust Patient and carer involvement in specific projects Responding to complaints and praise. Review of all complaints by our Governors Videoing patient stories which has provided us with a valuable insight into our patients experiences

Specific examples of these include: x

The Trust works in partnership with its Council of Governors to develop its annual service plans which form the Trusts corporate objectives. Governors have the opportunity to suggest plans and priorities and form an integral part of the approval process for the plans.

Examples where patient experience has informed change includes: x x x x x x x x x x

Redesigning the treatment bays in our chemotherapy day case unit to improve visibility of nursing staff Changes to the rostering of chemotherapy nurses to improve continuity of care Implementation of a numbered ticketing system to improve waiting times for blood tests Improvements made to signage around the Trust Verification of our equality objectives and action plan Improvements in waiting times Provision of refreshments out of hours Facilitated visits for support groups Pre treatment open days at our satellite radiotherapy centre have been very successful giving patients and their carers/relatives opportunity to see the treatment machines before their first visit. Review of videos of patient stories at each Board meeting. 47

Health and Safety The safety of patients, staff and visitors is paramount and therefore CCO continues to encourage a pro-active approach to health and safety to ensure that as a Trust we comply with existing and new health and safety legislation. All staff groups have access to our specialist team comprising of health and safety, moving and handling, fire and security. In addition, advice is available from radiation protection, infection control and occupational health. As part of our pro-active approach risk assessments are reviewed by all departments to identify any potential risks and put controls in place to prevent were possible any injuries or illness to patients, staff and visitors. The last 12 months a comprehensive fire training program has been implemented with new evacuation equipment being purchased, fire marshal training being delivered and all activated fire alarm response reported and assessed. To support staff with knowledge and information for health and safety, fire, security and manual handling annual training sessions are provided for all staff groups and workbooks have been developed for staff to complete as an alternative form of learning. There were 51 reported staff accidents in 2011/2012 which fell into the following categories manual handling, struck by or against, needle stick, slips, trips, falls and burns. Regular reports on all accidents, dangerous occurrences and ill health are presented at our bimonthly health and safety committee and action plans are implemented. Staff Communication Actions taken by the NHS Foundation Trust to maintain or develop the provision of information to, and consultation with employees.

Annual Governance Statement Scope of responsibility As Accounting Officer, I have responsibility for maintaining a sound system of internal control that supports the achievement of the NHS foundation trust’s policies, aims and objectives, whilst safeguarding the public funds and departmental assets for which I am personally responsible, in accordance with the responsibilities assigned to me. I am also responsible for ensuring that the NHS foundation trust is administered prudently and economically and that resources are applied efficiently and effectively. I also acknowledge my responsibilities as set out in the NHS Foundation Trust Accounting Officer Memorandum. The purpose of the system of internal control The system of internal control is designed to manage risk to a reasonable level rather than to eliminate all risk of failure to achieve policies, aims and objectives; it can therefore only provide reasonable and not absolute assurance of effectiveness. The system of internal control is based on an ongoing process designed to identify and prioritise the risks to the achievement of the policies, aims and objectives of Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology NHS Foundation Trust (CCO), to evaluate the likelihood of those risks being realised and the impact should they be realised, and to manage them efficiently, effectively and economically. The system of internal control has been in place in Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology NHS Foundation Trust for the year ended 31 March 2012 and up to the date of approval of the annual report and accounts. Capacity to handle risk The Trust is committed to providing high quality services in a safe and secure environment. As Chief Executive I have overall responsibility and accountability for all aspects of risk management within the Trust, making sure that the organisational structure and resources are in place to ensure this occurs. Senior leadership is delegated through the directors and operationally through departments and committee structures. This covers all aspects of governance relating to our service delivery, including: quality governance, infection control, clinical care, radiation protection, Care Quality Commission (CQC) Regulatory Requirements, Monitors Compliance Framework, finance, contracts, information technology, health and safety, cancer standards peer review, research, and employment practices. The Audit Committee has overarching responsibility for ensuring that risk is managed effectively within the organisation. This role is supported by Board committees that oversee specific aspects of the risk portfolio and which also ensure that the Trust continually learns from good practice. The system provides a central steer whilst supporting local ownership in managing and controlling risks to which the Trust may be exposed. These systems are further supported by the evaluation of the effectiveness of risk management and control systems and implementation of recommendations from external assessments to promote both organisational and individual learning and the dissemination of good practice within the Trust. Bespoke learning and development is provided according to individual role requirements such as Trust Board members, senior managers and all staff. 51

Risk Management training is mandatory for all staff including senior managers and Board members. Clear delegated authority is defined within the Corporate Governance Manual and the Trust’s Risk Management Strategy. The Risk Management Strategy is underpinned by a number of risk related policies and procedures which provide further information and guidance to staff in the management of risk. The Trust is committed to continually reviewing its risk management process and endeavours to ensure that it learns from best practice. A key example of this is the adoption of the Integrated Governance Model as defined in the Integrated Governance Handbook (DH 2005) and the implementation of Monitor’s Quality Governance Framework (2011). The risk and control framework The key elements of the Trust’s Risk Management Strategy are to manage and control identified risks, whether clinical, non-clinical or financial, appropriately. This is achieved through a sound organisational framework which promotes early identification of risk, the coordination of risk management activity, the provision of a safe environment for staff and patients, and the effective use of financial resources. It ensures that staff are aware of their roles and responsibilities and outlines the structures and processes through which risk is assessed, controlled and managed. The Trust Board approved a revised Risk Management Strategy in February 2010. The Trust Board determines the risk appetite of the Trust. Levels of acceptable risk are determined by working within agreed Trust policies and procedures. An acceptable risk is one which has been accepted after proper evaluation, with all the possible controls in place. Risks are identified through feedback from many sources such as, formal risk assessment, the assurance framework, incident reporting, audit data, complaints, legal claims, patient and public feedback, stakeholder/partnership feedback and internal/external assessment. The Trust Board has endorsed the Quality Strategy, the Operational Budget Plan and the Risk Management Strategy. In addition, a range of Trust-wide policies and procedures further supports the risk management processes. The risk and control framework continues to be reviewed and developed. In 2011/12 this included: x x x x x x x

Annual review of the approved Trust Board committee structure in line with the principles of Integrated Governance to ensure its continued effectiveness. Full implementation of Monitor’s Quality Governance Framework. Continued development of the operation of the Trust’s Risk Register. Continued full compliance with the new regulatory requirements set out by the Care Quality Commission to ensure ongoing full registration without conditions. The Trust continued to work and develop arrangements with third party organisations within the local health economy and on a wider scale to ensure delivery of quality healthcare services and secure appropriate funding. Continuous improvements were made in 2011/12 in order to continue to meet all mandated targets. Any new and emerging risks have been kept under review such as maintaining income flows and key relationships with commissioners and implications of CCG commissioning. 52

Identification of future risks which may affect the Trust in relation to the proposed relocation of CCO’s hub to the Royal Liverpool site. The Trust Board has continued to review all significant risks monthly at its Board meeting ensuring risk mitigation plans are in place and that the Board approves any changes to the assessment of risk based on the impact and the efficacy of the controls in place.

The Trust Board has reviewed Monitor’s Quality Governance Framework including performance against all best practice areas at its Board meeting in April 2011. Overall the Trust Board is assured that it has in place robust Quality Governance. At its review the Board identified a small number of areas where it wishes to implement the good practice examples provided by Monitor. These were integrated into the revised Quality Strategy which was approved by the Board in June 2011. The Trust Board receives a quarterly quality report detailing performance against the delivery of its stated quality objectives and performance information on a range of quality metrics. The quality of performance information is assessed and assured through data quality audits and reviews by our internal and external auditors. The Trust Board reviews the Care Quality Commission monthly Quality and Risk Profile at each Board meeting together with updated action plans to address any areas of risk. The Integrated Governance Board Committee has responsibility for the ongoing monitoring of compliance with the CQC registration requirements. It does this through the review of the individual regulations and associated outcome measures such as patient survey results and audits against each of the required outcomes. Additional information is provided following CQC inspections and reviews and from planned internal audits as part of the Trust’s audit schedule. The Trust has appointed an Executive Director as the Senior Information Risk Officer. Risks relating to data security are assessed through the completion of the Department of Health’s Information Governance Toolkit. The Trust has assessed itself as securing a score of 79% (a “Green” rating) against the Department of Health’s Information Governance Toolkit in 2011/12; The Trust achieved Level 2 against the requirements of the Information Governance Statement of Compliance as required by Monitor’s Compliance Framework, where relevant information risks identified in the course of the Trust’s incident reporting processes are investigated and lessons learned. The implementation of the Trust’s IM&T Strategy, including the application of data security principles continues to be subject to scrutiny at the Information Management & Technology (IM&T) Programme Board. The Trust has embedded an assurance framework at a corporate level and across all areas of the organisation. The corporate assurance framework identifies those risks deemed as strategically significant to the Trust’s objectives, the controls in place to manage / mitigate those risks and the assurances received by the Trust. All Board members have been involved in the development, identification, quantification and prioritisation of the risks and the subsequent action planning to address areas for improvement. Significant risks are escalated to the Trust Board as they arise and subsequent updates are made to the Assurance Framework. Each high scoring risk has an individual risk mitigation plan developed by the responsible Executive Director. Each directorate is also required to develop a directorate level assurance framework to support the delivery of the directorate objectives. This further embeds the organisation wide risk aware culture. The current major risks both in year and for the future are: x

The potential impact of the changing commissioning landscape. 53

The ability to deliver our Investment in Liverpool plans Maintaining the required skills within the Board The ability to deliver the scale of change planned Ensuring we have the right skills and competencies within the workforce. The potential impact of competition and choice The volatility of the changes in treatments for cancer affecting demand Ensuring quality is not affected by our cost improvement programme. The potential impact of changes in healthcare funding.

The Trusts major risks all have robust risk mitigation plans and are reviewed at each Board meeting. Risk management is embedded throughout the Trust. This is demonstrated by the incident reporting arrangements within the Trust where this is openly encouraged. The Trust operates a ‘fair blame’ culture with a clear approach to identifying the causes of incidents, learning lessons from them and providing feedback and support to staff involved in incidents. Assurance of this process is gained by the achievement of NHSLA level 3 (since November 2007) and the Trust wide ISO 9001:2008 quality management system accreditation. Engagement with public stakeholders in managing risks which may impact on them is undertaken in a number of ways, principally through: x x x x

The foundation trust is fully compliant with the registration requirements of the Care Quality Commission. As an employer with staff entitled to membership of the NHS Pension Scheme, control measures are in place to ensure all employer obligations contained within the Scheme regulations are complied with. This includes ensuring that deductions from salary, employer’s contributions and payments into the Scheme are in accordance with the Scheme rules, and that member Pension Scheme records are accurately updated in accordance with the timescales detailed in the Regulations. Control measures are in place to ensure that all the organisation’s obligations under equality, diversity and human rights legislation are complied with. The foundation trust has undertaken risk assessments and Carbon Reduction Delivery Plans are in place in accordance with emergency preparedness and civil contingency requirements, as based on UKCIP 2009 weather projects, to ensure that this organisation’s obligations under the Climate Change Act and the Adaptation Reporting requirements are complied with.

Review of economy, efficiency and effectiveness of the use of resources As the Accounting Officer, I am responsible for ensuring that the organisation has arrangements in place to secure value for money in the use of resources. The Trust achieves this through the following systems: x x x x

Setting and monitoring the delivery of strategic and operational objectives Monitoring and review of organisational performance Delivery of efficiency savings Workforce review

Annually the Trust produces a service strategy which incorporates a supporting financial plan for approval by the Board of Directors. The strategy approved by the Board of Directors informs the detailed annual financial and performance plans. The Board monitors performance monthly through the corporate Finance & Performance Report, which provides information on current and forecast financial performance, achievement of savings targets, capital investment, contract activity and performance against key targets. Reports on specific issues relating to economy, efficiency and effectiveness are commissioned by the Audit Committee from the Trust’s Internal Auditors and it also receives reports from the External Auditors as required. The Audit committee monitors closely the implementation of Audit recommendations. Effective performance has been demonstrated through: x x

The achievement of the majority of key NHS targets: The financial risk rating of 5 as determined by the independent regulator Monitor.

Annual Quality Report The Directors are required under the Health Act 2009 and the National Health Service (Quality Accounts) Regulations 2010 (as amended) to prepare Quality Accounts for each financial year. Monitor has issued guidance to NHS foundation trust boards on the form and content of annual Quality Reports which incorporate the above legal requirements in the NHS Foundation Trust Annual Reporting Manual. In preparing the Quality Report, directors are required to take steps to satisfy themselves that: x

the quality report presents a balanced picture of the foundation trust’s performance over the period covered;

x

the performance information reported in the Quality Report is reliable and accurate;

x

there are proper internal controls over the collection and reporting of the measures of performance included in the Quality Report, and these controls are subject to review to confirm that they are working effectively in practice;

x

the data underpinning the measures of performance reported in the Quality Report is robust and reliable, conforms to specified data quality standards and prescribed definitions, is subject to appropriate scrutiny and review; and the Quality Report has 55

56


been prepared in accordance with Monitor’s annual reporting guidance (which incorporates the Quality Accounts regulations) as well as the standards to support data quality for the preparation of the Quality Report. The following steps have been put in place to assure the Board that the Quality Report presents a balanced view and that there are appropriate controls in place to ensure the accuracy of the data. 1.

Governance and leadership

The Director of Nursing and Quality is responsible for the Quality Strategy and the Quality Accounts. The Board receives a quarterly quality report which is built on the structure of the annual Quality Accounts to ensure that progress against priorities and monitoring of performance measures are reviewed throughout the year and to ensure that the Quality Report is balanced. The Director of Finance (DoF) is responsible for corporate leadership of data quality as lead director for Information Governance. The DoF has overall strategic responsibility for data quality, and this responsibility is not delegated. The Trust has in place a Data Quality Policy which ensures that the Trust holds good data quality processes and procedures in place to provide assurances to themselves as well as external users of their information. This Policy covers all patient data collected by the Trust. The Data Quality Policy states that all staff responsible for entering data in the Trust’s Electronic Patient Record (EPR) system are required to attend annual refresher training as per the Information Governance toolkit standards. Data quality is regularly reviewed and reviews are reported through the Information Governance Committee. The Trust has in place and IM&T Strategy. This strategy drives the IM&T Programme Board which has as a responsibility to monitor risks and ensure the correct operation of security and Information Governance policies including compliance with the Data Protection and Freedom of Information Acts. The strategy identifies clearly that the Trust has specific objectives and targets (Delivery Plan), the achievement of which must be supported by the IM&T strategy. Information governance in relation to assessment of risk is clearly identified within the Risk management Strategy. All risks are fed into the organisational risk register. Risks associated with data quality audit reports are included in the organisational risk register. The Quality Report includes information on both good performance and areas for improvements which provides a balanced picture of the Trusts performance. The majority of indicators relate to performance of the whole Trust. As part of the Board approval process, the two clinicians on the Trust Board (Medical Director and Director of Nursing and Quality) will explicitly approve the data included in the Quality Report.

All Trust policies and procedures are reviewed periodically and updated when needed in accordance with the Trusts Document Management Policy. Staff are informed of all policy changes via the monthly clinical governance report at Team Brief. Where significant policy changes are made formal launches may be delivered. 3.

Systems and processes

There are systems and processes in place for the collection, recording, analysis and reporting of data which are focused on securing data which are accurate, valid, reliable, timely, relevant and complete. The Trust has in place a Business Continuity Plan and Disaster recovery arrangements. Both of these are regularly tested. 4. People and skills Staff training is identified within the Data Quality Policy. Roles and responsibilities in relation to data quality are clearly defined and documented, and incorporated where appropriate into job descriptions and are reflected in the KSF framework. The body has put in place and trained the necessary staff, ensuring they have the capacity and skills for the effective collection, recording, analysis and reporting of data. Staff collecting, recording, analysing and reporting data are assessed on their adherence to the data quality standards set by the Trust through the data quality audit program. 5. Data use and reporting Clinical data is reported at Board level primarily within the quarterly quality report, with evidence of Board challenge in response.

57

58


The Trust has arrangements in place to ensure that data supporting reported quality information is actively used in decision making processes, and is subject to a system of internal control and validation. The Information Governance Sub-Committee reviews data quality audits on a quarterly basis and a Data Quality Group meets monthly to analyse detailed quality reports. Operational and performance reports are produced on a monthly basis and key quality indicators are included in a corporate balanced scorecard which is reviewed by the Trust Board and Executive Team. Detailed reports are produced on a weekly basis and reviewed by the Trust’s Management Group. Internal and external reporting requirements are regularly reviewed and data provision is aligned to management and operational needs. Data used for reporting to those charged with governance are also used for day-to-day management of the Trusts business, via a combination of reports which are published onto a Management Information System website, automated e-mail reports to individual users and reports produced for specific management meetings. Data quality and performance reports are routinely provided to staff groups who create the data using various clinical and business systems, to reinforce understanding of their wider role and importance. Data which are used for external reporting are subject to rigorous verification. A range of reports are used to monitor the quality of data reported externally and a variety of audit processed are used routinely All data returns are prepared and submitted on a timely basis, and are supported by a clear and complete audit trail. Where appropriate data is triangulated against other sources of information such as patient feedback and is included within scorecard reports. Review of effectiveness As Accounting Officer, I have responsibility for reviewing the effectiveness of the system of internal control. My review of the effectiveness of the system of internal control is informed by the work of the internal auditors, clinical audit and the executive managers and clinical leads within the NHS foundation trust that have responsibility for the development and maintenance of the internal control framework. I have drawn on the content of the quality report attached to this Annual report and other performance information available to me. My review is also informed by comments made by the external auditors in their management letter and other reports. I have been advised on the implications of the result of my review of the effectiveness of the system of internal control by the board, the audit committee and the Integrated Governance Committee and a plan to address weaknesses and ensure continuous improvement of the system is in place. The Board of Directors reviews performance across a range of indicators, which include both corporate and national objectives and those measures of performance included in the Quality Accounts. Achievement of both local and national objectives and measures of performance is an important function of the Trust Board; in ensuring our effectiveness in doing this a number of measures are in place across the Trust: 58

The amber/greed relates to failing to meet its C. difficile trajectory. x Achievement of all key financial duties and a Monitor financial risk rating of 5 for quarters 1, 2 and 3 with a forecast of a rating of 5 for quarter 4. x Regular Audit Committee review to ensure up to date and relevant financial policies and procedures are maintained. x The Trust has been granted full registration without conditions as a service provider from the Care Quality Commission in March 2010 for the treatment of disease, disorder or injury and for diagnostic and screening procedures. x The Trust Board receives a quarterly Quality Report which is built on the structure of the annual Quality accounts to ensure that progress against priorities and monitoring of performance measures in reviewed throughout the year. The Audit Committee provides a central means by which the Trust Board ensures effective internal control mechanisms are in place. This includes receiving and reviewing reports from both Internal Audit and our External Auditors: Internal Audit concluded that the systems and processes in place regarding the Assurance Framework are designed and operated to meet the requirements of the Annual Governance Statement (AGS). The overall assessment was that an assurance framework has been established which is designed and operating to meet the requirements of the AGS and provide reasonable assurance that there is an effective system of internal control to manage the principle risks identified by the organisation. They have also provided significant assurance overall across a range of individual opinions arising from risk based audit assignments reported throughout the year. x Approving the clinical governance assurance framework.

Statement on Quality from the Chief Executive Quality is at the heart of what all our staff aims to achieve for all the patients in our care. It is thanks to the professionalism, expertise and commitment of our staff that we are able to provide a high quality service. We have clearly defined our Core Purpose as providing excellent care to people with cancer. Our Vision is to provide the best cancer care to the people we serve. To deliver our vision we have made it our Mission to improve health and well being through compassionate, safe and effective cancer care. Our values, developed with our staff demonstrate our commitment to how we work: x Passionate about what we do x Putting people first x Achieving excellence x Committed to our future x Always improving our care This year has seen the Trust continue to take forward the aims and objectives of its Quality Strategy. The Trust Board has ensured that Quality is a key agenda item at each Board meeting and it oversees the delivery of the Trust’s priorities and initiatives identified in its Quality Report. As a Foundation Trust we also work closely with our Council of Governors to ensure that it supports the Trust Board in shaping the Quality Strategy and is kept appraised of progress in the delivery of the plans it contains. The Governors also receive the quarterly Quality Report and their Patient Experience Committee has continued to review all patient complaints in detail. Throughout this year we have worked with our staff and our key stakeholders to continue to improve the quality of our services. This year has seen a number of key developments and challenges for the Trust including: x

We have met all of our mandated waiting times targets.

x

I am particularly pleased to be able to report again that we have achieved against our clostridium difficile target. We have had one case of MRSA bacteraemia. The first for seven years.

x

The achievement of the 62 day cancer waiting time target continues to be a challenge for the Trust due to the fact that as a Tertiary treatment centre we are at the end of the patient’s pathway and therefore dependent on timely referrals from secondary care.

x

Patient survey results. We have scored consistently in the top 20% performing Trusts in both the annual staff and patient surveys. Whilst all of the questions in these surveys are important one particular staff survey question provides me with assurance of the quality of care. When staff were asked ‘if a friend or relative needed treatment, I would be happy with the standard of care provided by this Trust’ 96% replied yes. Our annual PEAT (Patient Environment Action Team) assessment has also demonstrated 65

67


good performance with excellent ratings being given for environment, food and privacy and dignity. x

I am pleased to report that the Trust was able to make the required declaration of full compliance against the delivering same sex accommodation requirements in March 2012.

I am pleased to announce that following public consultation during 2011 the Independent Regulator, Monitor approved the request to amend the Trust’s constitution allowing the Trust’s name to be revised from “Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology NHS Foundation Trust” to “The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust” with effect from 1st April 2012. As Chief Executive I am confident that the Trust provides a high quality service and that these Quality Accounts demonstrate this. To the best of my knowledge the information in these accounts are accurate. In summary, CCO has a good track record in delivering a quality service to our patients. As Chief Executive I have a personal commitment to lead the drive for continual quality improvement. We will continue to deliver against the objectives we have set and will continue to improve quality in the challenging times ahead.

Review of Quality Performance 2011/12 The Trust Board has agreed the priorities for quality improvement for 2011/12 which were included in our Quality report for 2010/11. The Board continued to monitor performance against its quality improvement strategy through a quarterly quality report to the Board. This report was also presented to the Council of Governors each quarter. The areas for improvement were identified through an engagement process with: its staff through its senior managers via the development of departmental Delivery Plans; its Governors at a Board and Governors away day in October with its lead Commissioner and Cancer Network at its contract meetings and with LINks and Overview and Scrutiny Committee members at a patient experience Workshop in November 2011.

Improving Patient Safety To implement a 24 hour a day, 7 day a week telephone advice service in line with the Acute Oncology Cancer Peer review standards specification This priority was developed in conjunction with our commissioners based on draft cancer Peer Review Standards. Once the final standards were published the requirement had changed. In agreement with our commissioners the priority was to the development of guidelines for 24/7 on-call consultant led service. Guidelines for the management of acute oncology presentations in A&E departments have been produced for use within the region to ensure a standardised approach to the management of oncology patients throughout the network area which will improve patient safety.

Quality in Nursing at Clatterbridge ‘Quality in Nursing at Clatterbridge’ (QINC) is a tool developed to drive the improvement of the key areas of quality in the inpatient service. At the start of 2011, 13 standards were highlighted as being key principles to achieving high quality care. Eight of the standards were categorised as a priority to improving our patient care. Those standards (highlighted in bold) have been monitored on a quarterly basis within each in patient area, performance for each element was RAG rated and sent to Ward Managers in the form of a report. Each Ward Manager was then tasked with creating an action plan to address those issues raised within the reports. The eight standards highlighted are: x x x x x x x x

Reduction in the number of inpatient falls Improve the quality of documentation of nursing care Reduction in the number of pressure ulcers Improve nutrition and hydration Improve discharge planning Improve medicines management Improve management of patients at risk of venous thromboembolism Prevent failure to rescue

4 standards showed to have significant Red RAG rating which has fallen to 1 at the end of the first year. None of the standards resulted in full Green RAG rating in April 2011; however data collected in April 2012 showed 6 of the 8 standards to have all Green status. Individually each ward has seen consecutive improvements as well as overall improvements as a Trust on a quarterly basis. Overall 2011-2012

In summary The aim of the QINC tool was to primarily raise awareness of issues that posed a risk to the quality of nursing care provided on the inpatient wards resulting in improved quality of care and less harm. Staff involvement in the QINC work is evident on the wards, with individual staff members and small teams taking responsibility for improving care and knowledge in the eight areas on the wards. This has been achieved through good leadership from the ward management team in supporting all staff members to be involved in the QINC project and encouraging individual ownership of smaller projects within the ward staff. Awareness raising events on the wards and QINC information boards highlight to staff, patients and visitors what is being done to improve the quality of care being provided. Patient involvement is also essential to this project, as it has been demonstrated patients are not always made aware of the risk assessment and other interventions that nurses are carrying out. This project has highlighted a need for patients to be more involved in everyday discussions and decisions about their nursing care. The next steps are: x x x

to analyse clinical incident data to determine whether there have been real improvements in harm as a result of this project Identify key areas for the next 12 months Create consistent and visible way of demonstrating achievements within the ward

Implementation of a rapid communication tool The Trust’s action plan for managing the deteriorating patient includes individual case reviews, table top exercises following fast bleep and cardiac arrest calls, and the implementation of a Rapid Communication Tool (SBAR). Initial work has included revising the tool to meet the specific needs of our patient population e.g. what treatment they are on and putting the tools/prompts together that we are going to use. The pre audit of witnessed hand over will be done in May, then the SBAR tool piloted on Conway for the month of June, then a post audit will be carried out. 70

Improving Patient Experience To undertake a feasibility study and patient survey on alternative care settings for the delivery of chemotherapy closer to home Clatterbridge in the Community The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre delivers chemotherapy treatments in collaboration with seven district hospitals across the Merseyside and Cheshire region. In providing these clinics we are able to deliver chemotherapy much closer to the patients’ home and feedback received positively reinforces this option as a huge benefit to them. We have now taken this a step further by offering the option to receive chemotherapy treatment at a GP surgery, or at home as part of our ‘Clatterbridge in the community’ pilot. The Government White Paper, ‘Our Health, our care, our say’ (1), promotes patient choice and transfer of services closer to people’s homes. We currently give 56% of our chemotherapy treatments off site; chemotherapy in the community is an extension of this. The pilot is underway to assess the feasibility and benefits of delivering outpatient chemotherapy treatments away from the hospital setting. The pilot is assessing patient experience, safety and also monitoring costs of delivery. Ultimately this will help to inform the chemotherapy service model of the future and assist in developing new and innovative ways of delivering treatments. Evidence suggests that patients treated in the community may experience reduced side effects and compliance rates may improve, although few formal studies have been undertaken to evaluate such a service. Experienced chemotherapy nurses from Clatterbridge are carrying out the study using suitable patients and carefully selected chemotherapy regimes. Treatments administered so far include Trastuzumab, Zoledronic acid, Capecitabine and Denosumab. Patients will be involved in completing a specially designed questionnaire & also to participate in focus groups to give us feedback on their experience. All the patients recruited so far have found the experience to be positive and some of their views have been detailed below. “I was able to spend the day with my sister visiting from overseas rather than spending time in the hospital.” One patient is attending the Hospice as a day patient and is able to have her bloods done there. The chemotherapy nurse then checks the results and delivers her chemotherapy tablets and administers Denosumab the following day. This means she avoids having to return to the hospital for another visit. According to our experienced chemotherapy nurse, another lady said “that to come to hospital meant that her daughter had to take time off work to bring her and then leave her, if the clinic was running late, whilst she collected her children from school, then return to hospital to collect her. This was causing the patient and her daughter much anxiety and distress” She really appreciated the opportunity of having her treatment at home. Two patients have returned to work and now find it easier to make appointments with the Clatterbridge in the community team and to fit this in with work than coming to the hospital. 71

Patients who have reduced mobility have found the service most useful as they are not as reliant on others and also it reduces the time with which they have to spend having treatment. 1. Our Health, Our Care, Our Say: a new direction for community services. White paper: Department of Health, January 2006

Reduction in patient reported waiting times in departments Patient reported waiting times in all departments have continued to be monitored through the real time patient survey. High level information is put onto the Trusts website and detailed reports are provided to the Trust Board, Council of Governors and to individual departments. Each clinical department has put into place actions to improve the patient experience and patient waiting times. These include: Chemotherapy Phlebotomy Service: Actions to improve waiting times: x x

Additional staff have been put into the phlebotomy service each morning A ticket based queue management system now ensures patients are seen in order. This has been particularly effective.

Chemotherapy Nursing Service: x x x x

Systems have been revised to prioritise new patients and those having quick treatments e.g. (peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC line) flush Schedule it; a resource management system is now available in all the treatment bays. This is now updated in real time The nurses are now organised into teams in each treatment bay. As well as improving waiting times this also improves the patient experience as patients see the same nurses for each treatment Patients are encouraged to have bloods taken the day before or half hour before their chair appointment

Radiotherapy There has been an overall percentage improvement due in part to a pilot programme involving two treatment units on the CCO site – M10-2 and V6-1, where the standard appointment time has been increased from 12mins to 15mins to reflect the change in complexity in the treatment process. The pilot has clearly shown that there is a benefit to this move and the next stage to introduce this to other treatment units is under discussion. We have also continued to invest in having two fully maintained radiotherapy LINACs available as ‘service efficiency machines’ which enables patients to be transferred to another machine to continue their treatment in the event of machine breakdown. Outpatient department Initial discussions have taken place with Trusts who host our Consultant Outpatient Clinics. This has included an agreement to collect baseline data in order to inform and prioritise work 72

74


for improvement. The baseline data will include information showing how long patients wait from appointment time to being seen by the Doctor or Nurse in the Outpatient setting. If certain clinics are seen to be performing poorly against the 30 minute waiting time standard work, in conjunction with our key clinicians, will be undertake to identify possible areas for improvement. Where concerns have been raised within year, steps have been taken for individual clinics to be reviewed and where appropriate steps taken for improvement, such as changing clinic templates. As part of the Service Level Agreement discussion this year, additional requirements have been included into the Key Performance Indicators in order to ensure information is collated for analysis and review to facilitate discussions regarding required improvements where appropriate.

Improving Clinical Effectiveness Develop a framework for service improvement and re-design which supports both the Trusts Quality Strategy and the efficiency programme The service improvement framework has been implemented as part of the Trust QIPP programme and is focussed on achieving improvements in service quality and efficiency. During 2011/12 the project governance structure was developed and the four key work streams identified. By the end of the year each project had developed its project structure (using PRINCE 2 methodology) and initial workshops / rapid improvement events were held. The initial areas of focus are: x x x x

Radiotherapy Chemotherapy Inpatients Medical records

Integrated mortality review programme

30 day mortality post chemotherapy Data for all CCO chemotherapy patients & monthly 30 day mortality data is provided to individual consultants for review. 2 monthly mortality meetings are held to identify trends and any areas for concern are investigated. Recommendations for changes in practice are disseminated by the Medical Director to all consultants and their teams. 90 day mortality post radiotherapy 90 day mortality post radiotherapy data also continues to be extracted and reviewed as above.

The Trust has recently secured the purchase of the Lightfoot Sfn mortality management solution software which will provide a platform for ongoing and detailed analysis of mortality data in real time. The Trust Consultants now receive a regular detailed report of their own 30 day mortality figures and the report facilitates anonymised internal benchmarking. Each Consultant also is in receipt of their patient list as part of this report to facilitate interrogation and auditing of their patient deaths and this will be essential data analysis for presentation at revalidation. 5 year survival 5 year survival calculations for extended tumour groups are reported annually in the clinical governance annual report. We have provided the North West Cancer Intelligence Service (NWCIS) with our survival data with the aim of obtaining national comparison performance data going forward. NWCIS have advised they would not recommend us to compare the trust survival performance directly with the national figure without some form of adjustments. The most common adjustment is case mix i.e. TNM. However, as the national data completeness of TNM is poor, we are advised that this will not be a possibility. The Trust also requested curve survival rates for national comparison and a breakdown of the survival figures by staging for confirmed cases i.e. stage I, II, III and IV but the NWCIS were unable to provide this. Mortality case sheet review A suitable and sustainable model is being developed to provide a programme of regular multidisciplinary, peer reviewed mortality review meetings in the Trust. These meetings will identify harm events and prevent avoidable deaths. The Trust has appointed a Consultant Clinical Oncologist in April 2012 as Consultant Clinical Audit Lead who will work in collaboration with the Head of Clinical Governance & Practice Development and the Medical Director to finalise the delivery of Trust Mortality Review Meetings and liaise with all medical staff in this respect. Global Trigger Tool This monthly in patient case sheet review continues to be undertaken to identify possible harm events, to include 30 day mortality from discharge and neutropenic sepsis mortality. Data is uploaded on the IHI Extranet as part of the Patient Safety First Campaign initiative. Areas of concern are disseminated by the Clinical Governance Manager to relevant staff groups for action. This activity continues with a renewed emphasis on trend analysis and a subsequent reduction in harm events in 2012, linked with the Patient Safety Thermometer initiative commenced in April 2012 Weekly review of all inpatient deaths/ Use of LCP and preferred place of care A weekly review of all inpatient deaths, captured in the Cause of Death Record, continues and will be incorporated into the planned Mortality Review Meetings.

Priorities for improvement The three main priorities for the Quality Strategy have been developed through an ongoing programme of engagement with the Trust Board, our Council of Governors, our Commissioners and with LINks and Overview and Scrutiny Committee representation from across the network. The three priorities are integrated into our Trust Strategic Plan and our Annual Plan which have been developed in conjunction with the Council of Governors Strategy Committee. Priorities in each section have been developed in conjunction with our commissioners and are included within our contract for 2012/13 as CQUINS. Due to the size of the population that it serves the Trust has endeavoured to engage with all LINkS and Overview and Scrutiny Committees in developing the Quality Accounts and key priorities. In November the Trust held an engagement event to which it invited LINkS and OSC representatives from across Merseyside and Cheshire. At this event the Trust presented information on the delivery against its 2011/12 key priorities and performance against key metrics and held a workshop to discuss the priorities for 2012/13. The Trust will continue to use these engagement events to continue to improve engagement with LINks (and their successor organisations) and Overview and Scrutiny Committees over the coming year.

A requirement of the national CQUINS is to introduce the data collection part of the Safety Thermometer. This is a monthly review of all inpatients to determine if they are ‘harm free’ reviewing specifically the following harms: x Falls x Pressure ulcers x Catheters with UTIs x VTE Our patient safety priority for 2012/13 broadens the scope of the mandated requirements to ensure that we review the baseline data in April on implementation of the thermometer and that we set clear objectives and milestones for improvements in all harm areas. Progress and achievement of this priority will be by quarterly reports to the Trust Board.

Building on last years priorities Patient Safety Telephone advice line

Expected areas of improvement Improved patient safety Improved patient experience

We have continued to look at how we can develop the telephone advice line (triage) further. The current triage service provides a 24hr 7day a week telephone advice service for patients receiving chemotherapy. A recent audit showed that there are over 700 calls per month to the service. This suggests that the service is well utilised and provides a valuable point of contact for this group of patients. Although the finalised Acute Oncology Peer Review Standards did not include the provision of a network wide telephone triage service, Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust has continued with the plans to expand the current chemotherapy triage service to include a service to all patients receiving treatment at CCC. A new triage facility will be adjacent to the acute assessment unit (see below) and will provide a dedicated space for patients be assessed as well a telephone service. The timescale for the opening of this facility is dependant on the refurbishment of the ward and is estimated to be Oct 2012. Progress and achievement of this priority will be by quarterly reports to the Quality Strategy Committee.

Developing an acute assessment unit Many of our patients will develop acute problems relating to their disease or treatment. Currently patients are admitted to any of our inpatient wards depending on bed availability. During 2012/13 we plan to develop an acute assessment unit, linked to our telephone advice line (triage service) which will provide a dedicated clinical in patient area staffed by expert professionals with appropriate technology to provide the best care possible. The key objectives are to: x Improve patient pathway for unplanned admissions x Reduce length of stay for unplanned admissions x Admission avoidance through triage expansion x Create consistency of care for all patients x Increase patient safety through development of robust patient pathways and timely assessment and initiation of treatment x Ensure efficiency Progress and achievement of this priority will be by monthly reports to the QIPP steering group.

Statements of Assurance from the Board Information on the review of services

During 2011/12 The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust provided and/or subcontracted two NHS services. The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust has reviewed all the data available to them on the quality of care in two of these NHS services. The income generated by the NHS services reviewed in 2011/12 represents 100 per cent of the total income generated from the provision of NHS services by The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust for 2011/12. The data reviewed covers the three dimensions of quality – patient safety, clinical effectiveness and patient experience.

Information on participation in clinical audits and national confidential enquiries During 2011/12 nine national clinical audits and one national confidential enquiries covered NHS services that The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust provides.

Findings discussed at Lung Tumour Specific Group (TSG) and Mesothelioma therapeutic pathway developed. Confirmed good practice

Prescribing of GCSF

Re-audit after 6 months following any changes which have been put in place Redesign the current protocol to mention VIDE in G-CSF policy as it is not currently on the same page as the G-CSF policy and may easily be overlooked Ensure that reasons for prescribing pegfilgrastim are documented in each patient’s medical notes. Consider primary pegfilgrastim with Epi-CMF or taxotere-containing regimes as these both have a high incidence of febrile neutropenia (FN) requiring secondary prophylaxis. Review possible aids to prescribers in prescribing prophylactic pegfilgrastim e.g. a table of risk factors for febrile neutropenia or a table showing the risk of developing febrile neutropenia for each of the most commonly used regimens. Educate prescribers in prescribing pegfilgrastim for both primary and secondary prophylaxis of febrile neutropenia. Educate prescribers about the importance of appropriate documentation for off-protocol prescribing.

Pressure Ulcer awareness Launch Turning/positioning charts discussed next meeting. Improve access to cushions (especially out of hours) To investigate the situation whilst we await the central store. To add a reminder to the turning chart i.e specific day for re assessment Education surrounding the current Maxims as well as ensuring the new Maxims ‘Edit’ button will not be used in the same way. Awareness raising of some changes to the Waterlow score. New pathway introduced into the admission pack as a prompt for staff, To role this out to all in patient wards. To improve Waterlow scoring education for staff once any changes have taken place on Maxims. To check dressings in clinical areas to ensure they comply with the formulary, move to standardising dressing with the central store.

Audit of Inpatient Prescribing Standards at CCO

It is recommended that a re-audit be conducted in six months to ensure the errors have been resolved.

To determine a baseline assessment of pain assessment practice at CCO

There appears to be a clear need and desire for education in pain assessment and management. This enthusiasm is promising particularly when 73% nurses and 35% clinicians report having had no training in pain assessment / management. The Trust’s participation in a national study - The Edinburgh Pain Assessment Tool Study (EPATŠ) in 2009 has provided an opportunity to receive the educational package which includes implementation of an assessment tool and management plan. Institutionalising pain assessment should ensure a uniform method, frequency and a central point of documentation to ensure good communication between staff. It is hoped that raising the profile of pain assessment and management will improve confidence of staff, promote good clinical practice and ultimately patient experience.

Pressure Ulcer Re-Audit

Planned Admissions

Further discussions with Head of Nursing to discuss how in-patient wards can be utilised effectively with consideration of implementing day case areas on Mersey and Sulby wards with access to an examination room. All wards nurse patients receiving chemotherapy/radiation but nurses do not receive formal training. Discuss with Head of Nursing and ward managers the training needs of staff on all wards with consideration of incorporating chemotherapy training for staff on Conway and Mersey wards and radiotherapy training for staff on Sulby ward. To calculate workload of nurse practitioners in pre-assessment clinic. Ascertain whether patients require clinical examination and/or information regarding treatment plan to assist calculating pre-assessment workload. To review roles of nurse practitioners. Discuss with Judi Ebbrell how nurse practitioner roles and skill mix could be adapted to ensure a more timely efficient service.

Chemotherapy for colorectal cancer in elderly patients

Older age does not preclude consideration of appropriate systemic therapy. Patient selection is key and in some patients even single agent chemotherapy can be associated with high rates of grade 3-4 toxicity and lead to early cessation. However, in selected patients, combination chemotherapy may be well tolerated. Similar outcomes can be achieved as in younger populations. Recruitment of more elderly patients into clinical trials should be encouraged.

A comparison of split course vs continuous radiotherapy in patients with anal cancer

The results of this audit suggest well selected elderly patients achieve good outcomes if treated with radical intent, even allowing for age related modifications in treatment.

Review of patients under the age of 18 years treated with radiotherapy for Hodgkin’s Disease.

The use of radiotherapy in young patients with Hodgkin’s disease continues to be a subject of controversy. Our study confirms that IFRT as part of CMT in patients with Hodgkin's Lymphoma results in acceptable morbidity whilst achieving satisfactory disease control.

Assessing setup errors in lung cancer patients undergoing radical radiotherapy

Other information The Board in consultation with stakeholders has determined a number of metrics against which it can measure performance in relation to the quality of care it provides. The Trust has chosen metrics which are relevant to its speciality i.e. non-surgical oncology and which are identified as important to the public. However, this does mean that data is predominantly internally generated and may not be subject to benchmarking at this stage. Safety indicators 2011/12

NHS Foundation Trusts must send copies of their quality reports to their relevant lead commissioning Primary Care Trusts (PCTs), Local Involvement Networks (LINks) and Overview and Scrutiny Committees (OSCs) for comment prior to publication, and should include these comments in their published quality reports. The lead commissioning PCTs will have a legal obligation to review and comment, while LINks and OSCs will be offered the opportunity to comment on a voluntary basis. There are specific timeframes for seeking and receiving responses.

Statement from NHS Wirral Statement from Lead Commissioner for CCC Quality Accounts As lead commissioner on behalf of nine associates, Wirral CCG is committed to work with Clatterbridge Cancer Centre to produce a safe, high quality service on behalf of patients and their families. We take very seriously our responsibility to ensure that patient needs are met with the best service that CCC can provide. We believe that this Quality Account accurately reflects performance in 2011/12 and highlights priorities agreed with commissioners for 12/13. We have been pleased to see the Trust’s continued good performance against targets continued from last year, particularly for nutritional screening, pressure ulcer assessment and falls prevention. We have been particularly pleased to note an overall improvement in the Trust’s performance against the 62 day target, which has again shown progress against last year’s results, and acknowledge the hard work of the Trust in collaboration with the Cancer Network towards this target. In year improvements have also been made against more recent standards introduced last year, including those for continuing care. Newly introduced reporting in the areas of MSSA and E-Coli bloodstream infections has shown a good performance by the trust in these areas. The Trust has also remained below target on cases of C.Diff and MRSA. The Trust’s continuing declaration of compliance in the area of mixed sex accommodation is also welcome. We have assisted the Trust to pursue their Chemotherapy at Home planning with funding of a pilot through CQUIN monies in 11/12, and funding for the next stage of the pilot, again through CQUIN, in 12/13. Although the implementation of the pilot has been delayed, we will continue to encourage the Trust with regards to this scheme, and look forward to receiving the results of the pilot with a view to longer term implementation.

The Trust achieved full payment on all CQUINs except for one. The CQUIN on improving waiting times in all clinics, including satellite clinics, was not achieved, due to data collection issues. This was disappointing, but we are aware that the Trust is in the process of putting SLAs in place with all satellite clinics to ensure data collection, and that data is now being collected for all clinics at the Clatterbridge site. We will continue to work with the Trust to achieve improvement on this issue, and it has been added to the contract as a service development in 12/13. The acute oncology scheme is continuing to improve patient experience and reduce length of stay in acute trusts. The contract for 12/13 will be jointly commissioned by NHS Wirral and NWSCT. CQUIN schemes for 12/13 have been agreed by both commissioners and are around innovations for patients, reflecting the breath of activity across the Trust and ongoing efforts to improve patient experience. We look forward to seeing the outcome of these schemes next year. We are continually reassured, at contract meetings and in this report, of the high profile and priority given to quality issues, both by the Trust Board and operational staff at CCC. We applaud the Trust for its ongoing efforts, and look forward to working in partnership with CCC and NWSCT in the future to assist in achievement of their Core Purpose – providing excellent care to people with cancer.

Statement from Cheshire West and Chester Overview and Scrutiny Committee At its meeting held on 23 April 2012 the Council’s Health and Wellbeing Scrutiny Committee discussed the Quality Accounts. The Committee recognised the importance of the 62 day cancer waiting time target being embedded within the working practises of all staff within the Trust but accepted that Clatterbridge was the last point on the patient pathway and meeting the target was in many cases dependant on other NHS providers. It welcomed the initiatives being undertaken to provide outpatient treatment as close to the patient’s home as possible and the increase in clinical trials at the Centre.

Knowsley Overview and Scrutiny Board Commentary to Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology NHS Trust “The Knowsley Overview and Scrutiny Board welcomes the opportunity to provide a commentary on Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology NHS Trust Quality Account. The Board has delegated responsibility for considering Quality Accounts to the Chair of the Overview and Scrutiny Board in consultation with the Lead and Deputy Lead Member for the Wellbeing theme. A meeting was convened on Wednesday 9th May to consider the Quality Account document received by the 5 Boroughs Partnership NHS Trust. The three members spent time considering the document and made a number of observations which have formed the basis of the Board’s commentary, as set out below. 94

96


We focussed our discussions around three priority areas. Our first was the Trust’s Improvement Priorities for 2012-2013 and the achievements highlighted over the previous year. We discussed where we thought work should be commended and whether there were areas where we felt more information may have been useful. Our final observations referred to the layout, style and format of the document, particularly focussing on how the document related to and/or involved the public. We were pleased to see that the Trust provided a detailed narrative about their improvement targets which we found absent in other Reports. We thoroughly support the introduction of the Safety Thermometer which will ensure that the Trust has clear objectives and milestones for improvements in harm areas. We felt that the improvements which had been made over the previous year such as the 24/7 on-call consultation led service and the ‘Quality in Nursing at Clatterbridge’ tool would result in an overall improvement in the quality of services provided by the Trust. We would be interested to see the outcome of the feasibility study on alternative care settings for the delivery of chemotherapy closer to home as we recognise the benefits that this could bring to patients. We would have liked performance information included to see evidence of the improvements made particularly in relation to the reduction in pressure ulcers, patients fall incidents and mortality/survival rates. We also noted that there was quite a lot of information missing from the document where it appears that additional narrative, graphs and statistics will be added. Whilst we are happy to comment on the document as it stands, we would have preferred a more complete document to consider as we felt unable to provide a detailed commentary. In terms of the layout and feel of the document, whilst we think that the use of graphs or charts would help to show the Trust’s progression more accurately, we believe that the narrative is clear and well structured and that the document is very informative and well written. We would like to ask that the name of the Trust is included on the front of the document. In conclusion, we thank the Trust for its interesting report and welcome future engagement in order that we can provide a fair and balanced commentary on the Trust’s achievements in the future.” Commentary provided by Councillor Mal Sharp (Chair of Overview and Scrutiny Board), Councillor Bob Swann (Lead Member for Wellbeing) and Councillor Kay Moorhead (Deputy Lead Member for Wellbeing) on behalf of Knowsley Overview and Scrutiny Board.

Sefton Overview and Scrutiny Board Commentary to Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology NHS Trust The Committee had previously been supplied with the full version of the Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology NHS Foundation Trust’s draft Quality Account. The Trust had been unable to send a representative to the meeting to present its draft Quality Account for 2011/12. 95

97


RESOLVED: That the draft Quality Account for 2011/12 from the Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology NHS Foundation Trust be received.

Statement from Wirral LINk All the comments and questions raised by Wirral LINk in the statement below were responded to however Wirral LINk have advised that this statement would remain the commentary for the Quality Report.

Statement from Wirral LINk (Local Involvement Network) Wirral LINk have been involved in the Open Events to discuss the Quality Account for Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology for 2011/12 and are pleased to have this opportunity to comment on the contents. A sub group of LINk who look at Quality Accounts for NHS Trusts met to compile this response and the LINk Board may add some of the contents to LINks Action Plan for the coming year. LINk will take utilise the duty of Enter & View and visit Clatterbridge Centre of Oncology premises this year. LINk suggests that the comments below be added to the report at the end of each paragraph to bring the report to life. Please note that LINk is not spelt correctly, consistently, throughout the document. The LINk would like to record that the 24 hour 7 day a week telephone advice service is to be commended and it is noted that this builds on patient safety and improves patient experience. Statement by Chief Executive 2nd to last para Are CCO aware where the case of MRSA derived from? Last para re : 62 day breaches needs to be reworded as it took several attempts to understand the paragraph LINks concern is that the Trust should explain the reasons for appearing to breach the policy (62 days) as this seems unfair and the public should understand the reasons why. PART 2 2nd para It is mentioned that LINks and OSC members were at a patient experience workshop – were there Service Users at the meeting? 96

Improving Patient Safety To implement a 24 hour a day, 7 day a week telephone advice service in line with acute oncology cancer peer review standards spec. x What are the time frames for implementation? Quality In nursing at Clatterbridge x What does final bullet point mean? : Prevent failure to rescue x 2nd para – 12 months Audit report that links the result to the QINC – LINk noted this item and would be keen to see a copy of the report when it is available. When will this report will be available? Improving Patient Experience To undertake a feasibility study and patient survey on alternative care settings for the delivery of chemotherapy closer to home x

This was noted as a very good approach – particularly choosing “suitable” patients.

Reduction in patient reported waiting times in departments x Typo in first para – should this read “Patient reported waiting times in all departments have continued to be monitored through the real time patient survey”. x 3rd para – ticket based queue management system – could this be cascaded to other Clinics or departments? x Chemotherapy Nursing Service : Typo 3rd bullet : The nurses are x Using the same nurse for the treatment is good practice and to be commended. Improving clinical Effectiveness Develop a framework for service improvement and re-design which supports both the Trusts Quality Strategy and the efficiency programme x No comment Integrated Mortality Review Programme x Terminology should be thought about for example : what does “development of a clinical dashboard” mean?

Wirral LINk looks forward to continuing to work with the Trust over the coming year particularly with regard to LINks Enter & View function. LINk would like to offer the Trust an alternative view to their assurances on patient experience. LINk looks forward to building the relationship with CCO in 2012. Chairman

2. Operating segments Statement of Financial Position 111 The Trust considers that all of its activities fall within the single category of the provision of healthcare services. This is an aggregate of all the speciality services provided by the Trust, bothStatement at its mainofClatterbridge and at Equity clinics held at other hospitals in the region. The Changes in site, Taxpayers 112 large majority of the Trust's income originates from within the UK Government. The main expenses incurred are the cost of staff involved in the production or support of healthcare services, together with the related supplies and overheads necessary to establish this 114 Statement of Cash Flows production. The business activities which earn revenue and incur expenses are therefore of one broad combined nature and because of this, it is considered appropriate to aggregate these activities into the single segment of Healthcare. Accounting Policies 116 The Trust's operating results are reviewed on a monthly basis by its Board of directors which is chaired Notes by to the the Chairman Accounts and includes executive directors as well as senior professional 130 non-executive directors. The Trust Board reviews the financial position of the Trust as a whole - rather than any individual components included in the totals - in its roles of making decisions and allocating resources. This process implies a single operating segment under IFRS 8. The monthly finance report prepared for the Trust Board contains detailed performance and activity information together with expenditure reports covering all areas of the Trust. All of this information is summarised into single Income & Expenditure, Balance Sheet and Cash Flow reports for the whole Trust. The Board acting in its role as Chief Operating decision maker therefore only considers one segment of healthcare in its decision - making process.
