5 A. Introduction A.1 Template action plan This is a template action plan for use by local authorities and commissioning consortia working together under the auspices of Health and Well-being Boards to improve care for those people with dementia who live in their own homes or in some other residential setting. Completion of the action plan will help to inform the development of the local Joint Strategic Needs Assessment, will influence the priorities of the proposed Joint Health and Well-being Strategy, and will identify appropriate resources for the implementation of change. Improving the delivery of services for people with dementia and their carers requires a commitment to better ways of working within and between organisations. The action plan therefore includes: 1. a commitment to providing leadership and resources at Board level in all participating organisations 2. a review of current service offerings to identify services that could be made more dementia friendly 1 3. identification of four priorities for improved service provision for people with dementia and their carers 4. analysis and development of an approach to delivering training and support for people who care for people with dementia (carers, domiciliary care workers, care-home staff, etc). Implementation of the action plan should help develop dementia-friendly communities, in which good dementia care is part of mainstream services rather than an adjunct to them, in which cost-effective preventative interventions are available, and in which individuals and third sector organisations are actively involved in supporting and delivering good-quality dementia care. 1 An analysis tool is provided on page 11 of this document in order to help identify gaps in provision. Page 2
6 B. The case for change B.1 The national and local context Over the next 40 years, the number of people in the UK with dementia will more than double to 1.7 million. 2 From 2000 to 2031 the number of older people in the UK (aged 65 and over) will rise by 59%. 3 Both of these figures represent challenges for the way in which public services should be delivered, particularly as there is widespread acknowledgement that existing health and social care models do not meet the requirements of support for independent living and well-being, and over time will become increasingly unaffordable. This view is supported by a National Audit Office report, which notes that much of the 7.4 billion that goes on the direct health and social care costs of dementia is spent at a later stage, when services are necessarily more expensive; meanwhile earlier interventions that are known to be cost effective and that improve quality of life are not widely available. 4 All this must also be set against rising expectations of quality and choice. People want care closer to home that is responsive to their needs and delivered at the right time by a well trained workforce, regardless of whether the service is dementia specific or mainstream. For commissioners, the challenge is to meet individuals preferences and needs, while at the same time having regard for the body of evidence about the effectiveness of service interventions and value for money. Implementing appropriate, community-based interventions can help to prevent admissions to hospital or to delay admissions to care homes, and should result in better-quality and more cost-effective care for people with dementia. 2 Luengo-Fernandez R, Leal J and Gray A (2010), Dementia 2010: The economic burden of dementia and associated research funding in the UK.

7 B.2 Commissioning context Delivering more for less is a challenge facing all public services. In the context of health and social care, this challenge is set against a backdrop of rising costs, rising demand and rising expectations. Tackling inefficiency, providing better ways of working within and between organisations and focusing on quality and on interventions that prevent admissions to hospital or delay admissions to care homes should help to deliver services that are more responsive to the needs of people with dementia and their carers, and should result in more people having a positive experience of health and social care. As an example, the evidence indicates that caregiver intervention programmes can be effective in reducing institutionalisation and are of greatest benefit to those with advanced dementia. One study found that 65% of an intervention group were living at home after 30 months, compared to 26% in the control group, 5 while another study (this time from Finland) showed that the median time of residing in the community following a period of comprehensive support was 647 days in the intervention group and 396 days in the control group. 6 5 Brodaty H, Gresham M and Luscombe G, The Prince Henry Hospital dementia caregiver s training programme.

21 C.5 Training needs analysis When undertaking a dementia training and skills analysis, reference should be made to the Common Core Principles for Supporting People with Dementia, developed by Skills for Care and Skills for Health on behalf of the Department of Health. 11 Please describe the analysis that has been carried out to identify the priority for skills development for carers, domiciliary care workers and care home workers, as well as for workers providing other services that are used by people with dementia (e.g. support workers in sheltered accommodation, community nurses). The description should include who will receive training, how the training will be delivered to best meet the needs of the trainee group(s) and the content of the training (competences). Respondents may wish to refer to the scoping study report and to the report on existing training and education provision to support the implementation of the National Dementia Strategy (2009), 12 and to the Workforce Development Strategy for adult social care Department of Health, Skills for Care and Skills for Health (2011), Common Core Principles for Supporting People with Dementia.

The response should include consideration of existing training materials developed by the Social Care Institute for Excellence, consideration of delivery approaches, such as the Gloucestershire link worker scheme, 14 and options such as mentoring, coaching, active learning, buddying, distance learning and computer-based training. As a matter of good practice, it is essential that people with dementia and their carers should be involved in training delivery, and the joint training of health and social care staff should be promoted to ensure a common and mutually reinforcing understanding of needs and how to support people with dementia effectively. 14 See: Page 19
23 C.7 Training numbers and activity The response should include a description of who will receive dementia training and the numbers to be trained to either a basic standard or an advanced standard.
