Health and wellbeing boards
•
•
Will be established in every upper-tier local authority from April 2013,
as a committee of the local authority
Core membership, with equal leadership:
–
–
–
–
•
•
At least one elected member
Representative from each CCG
Representative from local Healthwatch
Directors of public health, adult social services, and children’s services
Can work with others locally, however that makes sense to them
Core function to undertake Joint Strategic Needs Assessments
(JSNAs) and Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategies (JHWSs)
– Assessment of current and future health and social care needs for
the area, going wider if they wish
– Jointly agreed local priorities – a strategy to meet those needs to
inform local commissioning
Shared local leadership
•
•
Bringing together collaborative leadership of NHS, local authorities
and wider public sector spending with the aim of
– Greater democratic legitimacy and accountability to local people
– Integrating services to better meet individual and community
needs
– Transforming local services and improving outcomes
The ambition is to:
– bring the decisions about services closer to those that use them,
– go further than analysis of common problems and to develop
partnerships that provide solutions to commissioning challenges,
rather than just commenting on what the challenges are.
Key challenges for emerging health
and wellbeing boards
• Not being “talking shops”
– focused on action
• Avoid becoming a “Christmas tree” for every difficult issue
• Managing expectations
– genuinely integrated working takes time, often years
• How to engage the wider public, not just interested few
• Building support for the need for transformational change
• Maintaining enthusiasm
– quick wins as well as strategic transformation
10
Current hot topics
• CCG authorisation (July, Sept, Oct, and Nov)
– How can it support ongoing development of strong relationships
How can CCGs provide evidence of engagement in HWBs and
JSNA and JHWS processes
• Widening the scope of JSNA to develop a “picture of place”
• Agreeing a “first-cut” JHWS to shape 2013/14 commissioning plans
• How can health and wellbeing boards support the development of
local Healthwatch
• Developing strong relationships during transition
• What does good community involvement look like
• How are health and wellbeing boards accountable in a local system
11
How JSNAs and JHWSs fit together
• The intention of JSNAs always was to use local evidence of needs to
inform the planning of local services and commissioning decisions
– by adding the new layer of the JHWS this link is being made
easier for local areas and partners
• Health and wellbeing boards provide a forum for repositioning JSNAs
as truly jointly owned and leading to joint commissioning decisions to
serve the whole population
• Some emerging health and wellbeing boards tell us that in their area
they already use JSNAs to inform their local priorities and underpin
their commissioning plans – this is all these process are intended to
do, and for these areas these reforms will not feel all that different
JSNA & JHWS – the vehicle for shared leadership
HEALTH & WELLBEING
BOARD
What does our population & place look like? –
evidence and collective insight
Explicit link
from evidence
to service
planning
So what does that mean they need, now and in the future and what
assets do we have? (a narrative on the evidence – JSNAs)
What are we doing now, how well is it working and how
efficient is it? (an analysis on our progress)
Involvement of
partners and the
community –
transparency
and
accountability
So what are our priorities for collective action, and how will we
achieve them together? (JHWS)
What services do we need to commission, or de-commission; provide
and shape both separately and jointly? (commissioning plans)
So what have we achieved? – what difference have
we made to people’s lives? (outcomes)
What we’re doing to
support this
• National Learning Network for health and wellbeing
boards, including a learning set on JSNAs and JHWSs
• Are developing statutory guidance for health and
wellbeing boards – focussing on process and principles of
JSNAs and JHWSs, not specifying form or content
• Also developing a range of co-produced resources with
sector leaders to support health and wellbeing boards on
areas where they want it most
– Feedback from health and wellbeing boards focuses
on best practice process around e.g. engagement,
asset-mapping etc.
Feedback from health and
wellbeing boards
• Unique to the area – every area’s needs are different
• Need for leadership from the health and wellbeing board
– joint responsibility for input and action on JSNAs & JHWSs
• Not “talking shops” – focused on action, not a “Christmas tree” for every issue
– Prioritising what matters locally and where can make an impact
• Assessing the full needs of the whole local population, across the life course
– Physical health, mental health, social care, wider determinants
• Opportunity to tackle inequalities and wider determinants through joint working and
influencing others
• A wide evidence base of qualitative and quantitative from a number of sources
– Also assets can be used to meet these needs
– Building on / informing other assessments & strategies Can drive improved
evidence in areas where it has been poor in the past
• Involve local partners and the community – use expertise of others, but
– challenge in engaging the wider public, not just interested few
– Local Healthwatch as a conduit to, but not the totality of engagement
• JSNAs and JHWSs an ongoing process – part of commissioning cycle
– Transparent trail from evidence to decisions made
– Can use agreed priorities to influence wider commissioning
– They are not ends in themselves – what matters is how they are used
Key points for community
engagement
• You can trap more with honey than vinegar – What can
you offer to health and wellbeing boards?
– Information and evidence
– Access to local people, especially specific groups
– A way of addressing identified needs
– help engaging the wider public, not just interested few
• How can you hold health and wellbeing boards to
account?
– Through local Healthwatch
– Through local councillors
– Through the duty to involve the local community
How to get involved in your
area
•
Health and wellbeing boards:
– Each local authority area will be establishing a shadow health and
wellbeing board ahead of 2013, and should be able to give you
information of how to get involved – check your local authority website
– You can also join the Knowledge Hub for the National Learning
Network for health and wellbeing boards to connect with key board
members and get involved in discussions:
https://knowledgehub.local.gov.uk/home
•
Local Healthwatch:
– Local Healthwatch wont exist until April 2013 (Healthwatch England will
be established in October). Some local authorities are establishing
'shadow' local Healthwatch organisations in the interim – until April 13,
local authorities are a good point of contact.
– From April 2013 onwards, there will be a local Healthwatch in each
local authority area, and the contact details will be through the
Healthwatch England website (www.healthwatch.co.uk), which has a
map with the relevant details (currently of LINks, but in time it will be
local Healthwatch).

Community Right to Challenge
Localism Act 2011
A right for voluntary and community bodies, charities parish councils
and relevant authority employees, to express an interest in running
council and fire authority services, where they believe they can do so
differently and better.
If an expression of interest is accepted, the authority must carry out a
procurement exercise for the service.
Authorities must consider how expressions of interest and subsequent
procurement exercises would promote or improve the social, economic
or environmental well-being of the authority’s area.
Expressions of interest
•
Will you be capable of running the service you want to
run?
•
Do you have sufficient finances?
•
What service, or part of a service, do you want to run?
•
How will the outcomes you propose to deliver:
a) Meet the needs of service users?
b) Improve the social, economic or environmental wellbeing
of the area?
Himmat – Working with young people
"At Himmat, we have expanded from our original base of Halifax to deliver services
elsewhere in West Yorkshire. As a community-led organisation, we have been successful in
being awarded contracts to run services such as with the local Youth Offending Team. It
hasn't been straightforward establishing ourselves - we're lucky to have strong relationships
with our local authority. The new Community Right to Challenge will make it easier for
community organisations to suggest new ways of running council services. The 95 per cent
attendance record at our Youth Offending Team programme is evidence that community
organisations deliver results.“
Mohamed Aslam MBE, BEM, Director, Himmat Limited a community-led organisation

The Rise of the Patient Leader
David Gilbert
Director, InHealth Associates
Co-Director, Centre for Patient Leadership
July 2012
The role of the lay representative
(or patient and public advisor)
• The ‘outsider-inside’
- Community link – externally facing, keeping in touch
with local communities and bringing in wider
perspectives. Opening the door for others.
- Critical friend – internally facing, flying the patient
flag , offering strategic advice from a non-institutional
perspective. Asking powerful questions.
3. The Effective Patient Representative
learning programmes
•To support people to be more influential via developing:
•Qualities
•Skills
•Behaviours
•Understanding
•Wide range of participants in terms of:
•Background (e.g. client group, community)
•Experiences of, and attitudes towards, learning
•Stage on the ‘involvement journey’ (motivations and
expectations)
•Structure
•4-5 monthly, five hour, sessions;
•14 participants (2 facilitators)
•Framework for sessions (Skills; Big picture; Action Learning
Sets)
Why we need Patient Leaders
•Patients = creative, solution-focused, innovators
•Self-leadership is seedbed of broader leadership
•1000s of patients want to help improve things
•NHS turns only to clinical & managerial leaders
•No learning opportunities for Patient Leaders
Who are Patient Leaders?
•System-facing transformers
•Community-facing enablers
Learning and support for Patient Leaders
•Personalised learning
- Focus on learning plan, inquiry proposal, learning objectives and
goals aiding learning transfer
•Inquiry-based learning
- Action research methodology, critical reflection learning through
work, practice and taking action, problem solving and thinking skills
• Community of reflective practitioners
- Collaboration, face to face & online, Challenge, dialogue with
‘experts’, support, sharing of findings, checking understanding,
critical feedback
• Using and working with the ‘here and now’
- Mindful of making assumptions, habits and making the
unconscious explicit and conscious
“As a way of approaching challenges, Action
Learning is supportive and empowering and
with complementary and excellent
facilitators, Action Learning helped develop a
positive ethos in our group. Action Learning
puts you on the spot and makes you think
very hard”.
(Jenny Crook, Community Representative)
Impact and outcomes
•Impact on self (confidence, well-being)
•Enhanced dialogue and better
relationships
•More transparent decision-making
•Improved service responsiveness
•Enhanced community well-being
“I have found the whole programme to
be incredibly powerful and useful. My
influencing skills have improved
enormously and so has my ability to
work strategically”.
(Fatima, Community Development
Officer, Ealing NHS)
“The lessons learned through the course
are helping me with the challenges of
being the sole patient voice on the Clinical
Commissioning Group, a position that feels
like David v Goliath sometimes”. (Nicola
Kingston, Co-Chair, Lambeth LINk)
