The PAHT2030 Ready programme: update The PAHT2030 Ready programme, to support key representatives from our divisions to bring PAHT2030 to life, continues to develop. Delegates have now reached the midway point of the programme. PAHT2030 is our plan to improve and develop both the way we deliver care alongside the way we all feel about the organisation and its culture, style and behaviours. At the recent session on 13 July, delegates again convened at the Manor of Groves Hotel in Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire, where they participated in a full programme of presentations and interactive group sessions. The focus of this session was on communicating PAHT2030 to our wider teams. The programme so far has included your questions answered sessions with Lance McCarthy, chief executive; developing plans for PAHT2030 across the organisation; and visual representations of what PAHT2030 means to each team. The programme is hosted for each session by international speaker, best-selling author, and coach Michael Heppell, and managed by the learning and organisational development team.
The recent session was again a great success - feedback included: "The energy in the room is very positive and inspiring, from speakers and participants." "I got the distinct feeling we have settled more as a leadership team into the programme and are clearer in the 'why?' We are also definitely more into
the 'what next?' and what we need to get there. The sessions and tools provided were very good and helped us to start adding to or building our toolbox for delivery of PAHT2030." Working collaboratively with their teams, over the coming months and beyond, the attendees will bring PAHT2030 to life for their divisions. For more information, please contact paht.odpartners@ nhs.net.

Everything equality, diversity and inclusion... Fighting discrimination We are the first NHS hospital in Essex to sign up for a new anti-racism charter. In March this year, in recognition of International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, we signed the anti-racism charter, developed by trade union UNISON, at a special ceremony that commits us to a range of pledges designed to prevent racial bias. Our diversity staff networks including Race Equality and Cultural Heritage and Disability and Wellbeing Network are helping to amplify our people's voices and your efforts offer real value. Not speaking up is a high price to pay for peace of mind – it can be detrimental to mental health and only pushes seldom heard groups into a corner of submission, never to question the ‘norm’. There is much work ahead to root out discrimination in our workplaces, and real change will not happen overnight. Ultimately, progress towards fulfilling an anti-racist, diverse, and inclusive organisational culture will require unwavering commitment and involvement from all of our people. Best practice can be seen within individual departments and many processes are helping our talented people develop the skills to progress. This being said, we acknowledge that some of you do not feel you are operating on a ‘level playing field’. We are working on formulating an action plan on equality to transform PAHT into a workplace where discrimination is actively addressed, and there is accountability for discriminatory conduct, ensuring a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace for all. If you would like to make a suggestion or give feedback, please contact me at monika.kalyan2@ nhs.net. Best wishes Monika Kalyan Head of equality, diversity and inclusion 7
Team shortlisted for national awards for enhancing cancer care services A team who are committed to enhancing cancer care have been shortlisted for the final of The Royal College of Nursing Awards 2022.

Nervecentre introduced in our emergency department Nervecentre provides a transition from manual, paperbased patient information processes to utilising software and mobile devices for a more sustainable working environment, to increase patient safety and to ensure efficient data flow. On 27 July, Nervecentre was introduced in our adult and paediatric emergency departments (ED). This means that our ED teams have moved from three ways of documenting patient information, to a single solution. There are multiple benefits of the new system, including: y Allows more time for our hard working teams to care for our patients
y Avoids duplication of documentation y Creates better visualisation and oversight of patients to improve prioritisation of our patients and patient flow y Enables swifter assessment, treatment and discharge of our patients Training and key actions for our ED team and specialty teams Training sessions have been made available for any clinical staff who would like a more in-depth training session on the Nervecentre ED module. This can be any nurse, allied health professional (AHP), doctor or consultant, either from the emergency department who may have missed a training session, or
those who care for patients in ED. The IT team have held training sessions on Microsoft Teams. Additionally, you can access a pre-recorded video for specialty teams training on AlexNet. Further information For further information about the project, please contact Kelly French, head of operations, emergency department, at kelly. french@nhs.net or Kevin Jennings, quality improvement programme manager, at kevin. jennings1@nhs.net. Thank you to everyone involved in this service improvement for our patients.

who identify as LGBT+. We introduced the badge during This is Us Week - for details of how to collect a badge, please contact monika.kalyan2@ nhs.net.
This was an opportunity to highlight the diversity and inclusivity of our teams, who work together to deliver high quality care and experiences. Pride Month is about acceptance, equality, celebrating the work of LGBT+ people, education in LGBT+ history and raising awareness of issues affecting the LGBT+ community. Activities to mark Pride Month at PAHT included safe space meetings, where Monika Kalyan, head of equality, diversity and inclusion, organised a series of sessions that offered a safe space to ask questions or raise
While discussing Pride Month, Kieran Burn, strategic HR business partner (pictured, left), reflected:
issues in an inclusive and nonjudgmental environment. We are also encouraging our #PAHTPeople to wear an NHS rainbow badge as a visible demonstration that PAHT is an open, non-judgemental and inclusive place for people
"Pride is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate diversity at PAHT and the contribution that LGBTQ+ staff make. "It is also a time to reflect on the challenges LGBTQ+ people face throughout the year and to renew our commitment to providing access to safe and inclusive healthcare for all."
The return of the deconditioning games: Tour de East of England
The aim of the campaign is to raise awareness of deconditioning, use data and performance to inform and drive improvement, share examples of best practice and to develop useful resources for patients, their families and carers.
Deconditioning is the loss of physical, psychological and functional capacity due to inactivity and is associated with the loss of muscle mass, increased risk of falls and reduced independence. During the winter, NHS England introduced the winter deconditioning games to reduce functional loss for people in hospital, to build on the success of teams across the region, they have since introduced the Tour de East of England. Patients and staff are encouraged to take part in a cycling challenge, to travel
virtually around the east of England and beyond. People can take part either by using a static set of pedals or through walking and dancing initiatives.
To get involved or find out more, please email Darryl De Souza, deputy therapy manager, at darryl.desouza@ nhs.net or contact your respective ward therapist. Keep a look out for further updates about team PAHT’s 11 progress.

Our patients said... "We are extremely grateful for such an excellent service and care given. Our gratitude goes to all the staff involved."
"This is a great service, being treated in your own home makes you feel more relaxed. You get a better night's sleep and I felt it aided my recovery. All the nurses that visited me were friendly and explained what they were doing well."
"The whole team are clearly dedicated and passionate about patient care. "All the individuals are a real credit to the hospital and NHS."
"We would both like to express our heartfelt thanks to every single member of staff we met. "Kindness and compassion was in every conversation, blended with a cool efficiency. It made us both feel safe in their hands." 13
Divisional update: Medicine "There is good news for our respiratory service, who have successfully relocated from Locke Ward to Harold Ward. This safeguards the non-invasive ventilation (NIV) service by enabling much greater oxygen usage in their new location. The good news continued for this service as Locke Ward also won a ‘Team of the Year’ award at the Our Amazing People Awards during This is Us Week last month for their delivery of the NIV service. We have also started our ward accreditation process with the first few wards, which will be rolled out across the division. We have some clear action plans to work towards from this and thank you all for your engagement in this process. "We would like to wish Jubie Jose well in her new role as an advanced clinical practitioner (ACP) on the Adult Assessment Unit (AAU). In terms of planned care, we have had a few changes to our operational team and are pleased to welcome Fiona Bromley into the division as our new service manager for diabetes/endocrinology and vascular services. We also have a new general manager coming into the team, with Ria Ali-Jackson starting in September. Ria used to work at PAHT as a service manager a few years ago in the family and women's services (FAWS) division and will bring a wealth of experience. "We continue to make huge improvements in reducing our elective backlogs, with our cardiac echo waiting list being reduced from 1,400 patients in December to less than 100. In cancer care, our respiratory team are performing extremely well, with over 95% of cancer patients seen inside two weeks and a performance of over 85% against the Faster Diagnosis Standard. Thank you to everyone for your hard work and dedication."

There are a wide variety of resources available to you to support your health and wellbeing. Each month, we are sharing practical information and tips as part of our wise about wellbeing feature. This month, we are focusing on the long COVID or menopause support available to you.

#PAHTPeople - making a difference Race, equality and cultural heritage (REACH) staff network
The race, equality and cultural heritage (REACH) staff network has become an integral part of our colleagues' support for one another, as well as feeding into equality work across the trust, encouraging a culture of fairness not only for Black, Asian and for minority ethnic (BAME) people, but also for all of our people. The network has provided social, networking and career opportunities for its members, including arranging talks from members of staff about their own career paths. As part of this continued support, Andrea Philip, chair of the network and Shahid Sardar, vice chair of the network, and key members will commence a series of development sessions designed to enhance the effectiveness of the network aimed at generating: • • • •
Psychologically safe and inclusive conversations Peer to peer support Building resilience Personal development support
