3 Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT): Service Information Sharing 1. OVERVIEW The Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT) will be composed of staff from organisations involved in a persons health and wellbeing, namely: Organisations who may be involved at a later date but no signatory received: Staff from these organisations will work together to provide integrated support for people over 60 who are identified as high risk in terms of a potential hospital admission, based on ongoing risk stratification by GP practices. Staff involved in the GP practice MDT will meet at least monthly to monitor the wellbeing and care provision for these high risk patients, and pro-actively implement integrated care planning and packages with crisis support when needed. Information sharing is key to support the MDT development. As other services are planned, the best method for sharing information will be reviewed; the assumption is that these organisations will continue to use the same approach however these organisations may also look at tactical use of Systems within their organisations, on a read-only basis for example, and other solutions such as automatic messaging between systems. 1.1 WHAT IS TO BE SHARED? The information to be shared is: Patients demographic information Patients full healthcare plan Patient social care plan 1.2 WHY IS THE INFORMATION BEING SHARED? The aim of the service is to identify the most vulnerable people in state area aged over 60, and provide a multi-disciplinary team approach to their care in the community and at home where appropriate including selfmanagement, to avoid hospital admissions. This will benefit service users by providing: Multi-agency, coordinated care using a single care plan Version 9.0 final Oct
4 A named care coordinator Access to a wide range of social care and voluntary sector services to support the persons wellbeing Care in the location of the service users choice where possible, ideally in their own home. Care monitoring and self-management to avoid crisis and increasing the risk of hospital admission. Crisis support when required with levels of escalation Wider availability of services including over seven days per week The information from each agency needs to be shared with the multidisciplinary teams in order to provide a joined up care plan covering all relevant, factual and proportionate information. 1.3 LEGAL BASIS FOR INFORMATION SHARING For organisations undertaking statutory duties please describe a) the legal basis that underpins this relationship (e.g. Crime & Disorder Act 1998, Children Act 1989 & 2004, etc.) and b) the requisite duties and powers (express and/or implied) arising from that will facilitate the lawful sharing of appropriate service user information. Include reference to any explicit limitations to information sharing and any other statutory and non-statutory regulations and guidance. The Data Protection Act 1998 (DPA) provides the legal basis for sharing information under which several conditions apply: The following Schedule 2 and Schedule 3 conditions of the Data Protection Act apply in support of this data sharing agreement. Schedule 2 Conditions: 2(1) The data subject has given his/her consent (this can be implied consent if there is sufficient fair processing information made available). 6(1) The processing is necessary for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by the data controller or by the third party or parties to whom the data are disclosed, except where the processing is unwarranted in any particular case by reason of prejudice to the rights and freedoms or legitimate interests of the data subject. Schedule 3 Conditions 8 (1) The processing is necessary for medical purposes and is undertaken by: (a) a health professional, or Version 9.0 final Oct
5 (b) a person who in the circumstances owes a duty of confidentiality which is equivalent to that which would arise if that person were a health professional. (2) In this paragraph medical purposes includes the purposes of preventative medicine, medical diagnosis, medical research, the provision of care and treatment and the management of healthcare services. The relevant organisations each have the legal responsibility for ensuring that the confidentiality and integrity of the data are in compliance with the DPA. 2. SERVICE USER CONSIDERATIONS 2.1 PRIVACY & CONFIDENTIALITY The sharing of information is required between the organisations in order to provide appropriate and safe care to some of the most high risk people. The multi-disciplinary team approach will provide care in the community and at home where appropriate to avoid hospital admissions, as detailed in section 1.2. By signing this ISA all signatory organisations confirm that they comply with the following: Organisations are registered with the Information Commissioners Office (Notification) All organisational contracts contain data protection and confidentiality clauses, all staff sign these. There are organisational policies / procedures in place for processing and handling personal information and information security both for paper and computer records. Fair processing notices are available advising people how their information is handled. Compliance or working towards with the NHS Information Governance toolkit for NHS and local authorities. Annual training for staff on Data Protection and confidentiality procedures including handling of personal data for the purpose of this sharing agreement. Within the MDT each client will have a named team of staff involved in their care as documented in the Care Plan. Version 9.0 final Oct
6 2.2 SERVICE USER CONSENT Consent to be involved in the MDT is required by service users. The consent status is recorded in the Care Plan document by the GP practice following all consultations with the patient, and on Systems. Initially explicit consent is needed, informed consent will be recorded on Systems and case records. This consent status will be shared with the partner agencies at the MDT monthly meetings and also using the Care Planning documentation ( UPA1 and UPA2 ). If the service user is deemed to lack capacity then the lead professional discussing their initial care will take a best interest decision under the Mental Capacity Act SERVICE USER AWARENESS & RIGHTS GP practices must gain explicit patient consent for a person to be included in the MDT and their information subsequently shared, and this will be recorded in the Systems, patient notes and Care Plan (see section 2.2). All organisations that are involved will provide fair processing notices ensuring all of the other agencies are identified (as listed in section 1). 2.4 RIGHT OF ACCESS TO INFORMATION (Staff Groups/Organisation) The information will be accessed by the following staff groups: Organisation (enter Org name) Staff Group Primarily: Community Matrons Assistant Practitioners District Nurses Geriatricians Occupational Therapists Physiotherapists Speech and Language Therapists Health Care Assistant (enter Org name) Social Care Workers Business Support Officers (enter Org name) Mental health Crisis team Mental health Liaison team Community Mental Health Team Version 9.0 final Oct

On electronic Systems an ambulance icon will identify a person in the MDT pathway. The organisations will utilise current management and procedures to prevent unauthorised access/disclosure Levels of Access Access Principle: all levels of access detailed below are granted on a need to know basis. Where access is granted at any level, this should be restricted to those parts of the records that are linked to a specific purpose and staff should not access records which are not specifically required. There will be five levels of access relevant to the MDT to detail how information is accessed and recorded: 1. Staff in the MDT who require ongoing and full access to computerised and paper records. 2. Staff in the MDT who require ongoing specified access to computerised and paper records. 3. Staff that are co-working and can have full access to computerised and paper records for the duration of their involvement as co-workers. 4. Staff who do not meet the above three criteria, but can gain access to computerised records by making a request to the team and demonstrating that they have a need to know. 5. A request can be made for a Record File Transfer within the signatory organisations to the MDT. The table in Appendix 1 gives the detail of the access levels for individual MDT posts, groups and teams. Version 9.0 final Oct
8 Colleagues from all organisations should also refer to the Multi Agency Information Sharing Protocol and their own organisation s procedures for confidentiality and access to records about living individuals.
