Get user feedback
into the process;
it is a great tool
Data share to get

Implement High
impact changes
Have contract that is

Clarify market

Describe service vision
and be uncompromising
on whether current

deliver
Outline of the guide
Section 1: About the guidance
Section 2: Background
Section 3: Why a focus on alcohol-related harm?
Section 4: Improving the outcomes through effective
commissioning
Section 5: World class commissioning competencies
and the commissioning cycle
Section 6: Conclusions and next steps
Section 4: Improving the outcomes
through effective commissioning
Delivery through partnerships
• Engage in right places
• JSNA - alcohol specific
• Agreeing Priorities
• Capacity and processes
• Data sharing
High Impact Changes
1: Specialist treatment access,
capacity and effectiveness:
2: Identification and brief advice in
primary care (new registrants):
3: Identification and brief advice in
primary care ( at risk group):
4: Identification and brief advice in
A&E and specialist units (e.g. fracture
clinics)
5: Amplify national campaign
messages locally.
Section 4: Improving the outcomes through
effective commissioning (cont)
High Impact Changes
1: Improvements to specialist treatment access, capacity and effectiveness for
dependent drinkers: Evidence–based specialist treatment for at least 15% of
dependent drinkers
2: Identification and brief advice in primary care (new registrants):
DES for all newly registered patients.
3: Identification and brief advice in primary care ( at risk group):
Local Enhanced Service to extend to all with a pre-existing condition where alcohol
may contribute to harm, or are perceived by the GP as being at an increased risk
of developing health conditions of alcohol use. Consider extending further .
4: Identification and brief advice in A&E and specialist units (e.g. fracture clinics)
Specialist alcohol nurse linked to every accident and emergency unit where there is
apparent local need
5 Amplify national campaign messages locally.
Local media and marketing campaign which builds on the language and messages of
the Know your limits national campaign. Promotes the local available services.

Phase 2: Specifying
outcomes
and

Phase 1: Strategic planning
• PCT to take a leading role in JSNA and
commissioning alcohol treatment
• Engagement of partners, service users, and those at
risk, in the needs assessment process
• Agree data needs and sharing protocols to identify
hotspots
• Understand the current service response and
expenditure against known best practice in
prevention and treatment and determine how these
may need to change
• Specify required outcomes and set priorities for
action which enable the PCT to monitor impact on
indicator ambitions at strategic level

What works for alcohol-related harm?
Any good needs assessments to share? What is the learning?
Phase 2: Specifying outcomes and
securing services
• Agree and publish the service vision
supported by alcohol care pathways across all
services
• Commission at minimum, the
recommendations from the high impact
changes in line with local need
• Ensure a comprehensive and vibrant
economy of service providers
• Contract for services with clear service
specifications including quality measures and
user feedback

measures and watch progress
