An update on progress made since a local system review of health and social care was carried out in York in November 2017. The original review looked specifically at how older people move through the health and social care system, with a focus on how hospitals, community health services, GP practices, care homes and homecare agencies work together. The progress review, carried out in November 2018 found some improvements in services for older people in York. This report identifies progress and impact made against key areas for improvement across the following themes: governance and alignment with the STP; relationships; joint commissioning; managing social care capacity; communicating with people who use services; the high-impact change model and multi-disciplinary working; medicines management; continuing healthcare; and digital interoperability. It found improved relationships between system leaders, with evidence of stronger partnership working at operational level, a focus on implementing high impact changes for managing transfers of care, and increased evidence of disciplinary working around individual people’s needs. The review found that engagement with independent care providers had also improved. (Edited publisher abstract)

This document outlines the experience of people with dementia of barriers to good end of life care. The report is one of a suite of documents reporting on the Care Quality Commission end of life care thematic review, and is designed to be read in conjunction with the other documents. The review supports existing evidence that there are a number of barriers that prevent people with dementia receiving good end of life care, including lack of identification and planning, unequal access to care, and poor quality of care. The Care Quality Commission encourages health professionals, including GPs, to facilitate early conversations with people with dementia and those who are important to them about their wishes and choices for end of life care, and help them to contribute to an advance care plan wherever possible; commissioners and providers to make sure that staff have the training and support they need to care for people with dementia who are approaching the end of life, and to understand and implement the requirements of the Mental Capacity Act 2005; and hospices to consider to what extent they are meeting the end of life care needs of people with dementia, and take action where required in line with our definition of good end of life care in hospice services.
