Total Quantity or Scope

At the June 2021 NHS Children and Young People’s (CYP) Strategic Forum, London partners approved the setting up of an Improvement Collaborative for integrated care, working in collaboration to support the five Integrated Care Systems (ICS) in the capital. The national CYP Transformation team also approved this and agreed funding in August 21. This is an exciting opportunity for London of national importance. The collaborative will support teams identified by the intergarted care systemes (ICS) across the whole of London so they can develop their local integrated care offer and service model for children young people and their families or carers.For the purposes of this tender, the London Improvement collaborative consists of the Steering group, ICS CYP leadership and the 5 ICS members and other partners and the appointed improvement partner. An improvement collaborative is defined as a multi-organisational structured approach to improvement with five essential features:• there is a strict focus on integration.• professional experts, children, young people and families and experts in quality improvement provide ideas and support for improvement.• multi-professional teams from multiple sites participate.• there is a model for improvement (setting targets, collecting data and testing changes); and• the collaborative process involves a series of structured activities Including large events bringing all sites together with an expert team and on the ground, improvement coaching at each siteThe purpose of the CYP Collaborative is to support ICS with their plans to integrate care and to identify, develop test and spread models of integration for children and young people in London that must cover either:o Primary with secondary specialist careo Health and social care and educationo Physical and mental healthThe national CYP programme in NHS England and Improvement funding requires that test sites address at least two of the categories below. Therefore, at least one of the sites in the collaborative should be testing models for children with a single long-term condition, and for children with medical complexity.• Improving quality of care around long term conditions such as asthma, diabetes, epilepsy and obesity• Working together to integrate physical and mental health• Working across traditional boundaries to improve care for children and young people with learning disabilities, autism, SEND needs and looked after children• Considering and addressing additional challenges posed/opportunities for new ways of working due to the Covid-19 pandemic• Tackling inequalities within the system• Improving transition from children to adolescent to adult servicesThe collaborative will be an opportunity to do something different to support improvements in CYP by trying to close the gap in health and well-being outcomes for all children and young people across the capital irrespective of where they were born, where they live and go to school,In London we have a number of existing initiatives that have demonstrated improvements in outcomes for children and young people which include Connecting Care for Children in NWL, The CHILDS Programme from the CYP Health Partnership in south east London (SE)L nd the Well Centre in SEL ICS, Health Spot and children’s social prescribing in north east London (NEL) ICS and a programme of Learning together across many parts of the capital and collaborative child health expertise developed through the Health London Partnership.These have expertise in innovation, implementation, evaluation and spread which the collaborative can tap into to provide additional capacity. We propose to harness these and other valuable resources to improve the health, future prospects and well-being of CYP in London though working with our improvement partner
