An Implementation Guide and Toolkit for Making Every Contact Count Making the Case Presentation The challenge ‘strengthening self-esteem, confidence and personal responsibility; positively promoting healthy behaviours and lifestyles…Protecting the population from health threats should be led by central government, with a strong system to the frontline.’ Healthy Lives, Healthy People ‘…every contact must count as an opportunity to maintain, and where possible, improve their mental and physical health and wellbeing’ ‘…preventing poor health and promoting healthy living is essential to reduce health inequalities and sustain the NHS for future generations’. NHS Future Forum Summary Report – Second Phase Healthy Lifestyles in the Midlands and East • Smoking- 19 to 25% of population smoke • Alcohol – 14.6 to 17.9 % drinking at increasing risk and 4.0% to 6.1% drinking at high risk levels • Physical activity- 61 % of men and 71% women do not meet recommended PA levels • Obesity- men 22% to 26%, women 24% to 28% • Diet 75% of men and 71% of women do not eat 5 a day. Health Inequalities ‘…people living in the poorest areas will on average, die 7 years earlier than people living in the richer areas and spend 17 years more living with ill health’ Health Lives Healthy People: update and way forward July 2011 Multiple influences on health and wellbeing. Dahlgren, G. and Whitehead, M. (1991) Policies and strategies to promote social equity in health Survival in 20,244 healthy adults aged 40-79 by healthy behaviours Overall impact: • 14 year difference in • life expectancy. 100 % still alive Health Behaviours: • Non smoker • Alcohol <14 units/wk • Not inactive • Blood vitamin C – >50 mmol/l – (5 servings fruit and vegetables daily).

PLoS Med 2008 Jan 8: 5 (1): e12 NHS Midlands and East Example impact: • 288,000 staff • Millions of patient contacts a year in primary and secondary care • Very brief advice given 10 times a year by every member of staff • = 2.88 million opportunities to change lifestyle behaviour • Less than an hours time a year for each member of NHS staff • A healthier workforce. Business case example • Alcohol brief advice changes drinking behaviour of 1 in 8 people • For a PCT of 310,000 cost = £48,000 to deliver IBA to 10,000 increasing risk drinkers • 1,250 will change drinking behaviour • Resulting in reduced, acute admissions and A&E attendances • Estimated benefits to NHS = £126,000* • ROI = £2.60 back for every £1 spent. * Based on DH ready reckoner v5.2 MECC: a definition • There is a need for a culture change amongst organisations towards prevention, to bring the promotion of mental and physical health and wellbeing into the mainstream – doing this has become known as MECC • Frontline staff should be trained to raise healthy lifestyle issues opportunistically. This is often known as Brief advice which is less in depth and more informal than a brief intervention. It involves giving information about the importance of behaviour change and simple advice and sign posting to appropriate lifestyle services for support. Drivers • Care Quality Commission (CQC): The level of care, treatment and support that each person requires will depend on their individual health and social care needs. It includes actions taken to prevent illness or disease and to promote lifestyles that maintain health • NHS Future Forum Second Phase • Increasing the number of people who improve their health and wellbeing will make a significant contribution to achieving the priorities in the NHS Outcomes Framework 11/12 and public health indicators in ‘Improving outcomes and supporting transparency’. For example: o o o o o o o o o Healthy Life Expectancy Differences in life expectancy and healthy life expectancy between communities Mortality from cardiovascular disease Mortality from respiratory disease Mortality from cancer Excess under 75 mortality in adults with serious mental illness Infant mortality Incidence of low birth weight in term babies Smoking prevalence in adults.

Why Implement the Implementation Guide and Toolkit • The approach to MECC within the toolkit has been developed using expertise, experience, learning and best practice from local organisations that have embedded the MECC approach • The Implementation Guide and Toolkit advocates a holistic approach to implementation to enable contacts to truly count, by ensuring that your organisation is offering a suitable environment for MECC and supporting staff to enable and empower the public to improve their health and wellbeing.
