3 Background Children and Young People s Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (CYP- IAPT) is an initiative supported by Health Education England (HEE) and NHS England (NHSE) to improve quality of Children and Young People s Mental Health Services through a range of interventions including: the introduction of better evidence based practice, authentic service user participation and the rigorous outcomes monitoring. Central funding from HEE and NHSE for the programme is agreed until at least the end of Nationally the programme includes services that reach 80% of children and young people 0-19 years of age. There is a Department of Health commitment to extend the programme to achieve a 100% reach by 2018 and there is further commitment and funding through Future in Mind, and Five Year Forward View for mental health to achieve this.. CYP IAPT is a core component of the transformation of children and young people s mental health services through Local Transformation Plans, and is one of the 57 indicators in the CCG Improvement and Assessment Framework. (Indicator 123c Children and young people s mental health services transformation) CYP IAPT is also one of the deliverables in the Planning Guidance , which defines the Sustainability and Transformation Plans, into which the Local Transformation Plans are being subsumed. The London and South East CYP-IAPT Learning Collaborative (called the Collaborative for the remainder of the document) is a collaborative venture between Children and Young Peoples Mental Health (CYPMH) provider partnerships across: Local Authority, Voluntary Sector and, NHS Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), along with University College London, Kings College London, Tavistock & Portman NHS Foundation Trust, and the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families. The Collaborative works with partnerships from across London, Eastern and, South East, Regions of England. These regions are coterminus with the geographies of the three Clinical Networks (Healthy London Partnership, East of England, and South East of England), with which the collaborative works closely. There are currently 31 partnership members of the collaborative; the majority of partnerships are made up of more than one provider organisation; currently the Collaborative has 31 NHS Child and Adolescent mental Health Services (CAMHS), across 16 NHS Trusts, 25 Local Authorities, 23 organisations from the Voluntary Sector, and 5 Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs). By 2017 there will be 36 partnerships. The Collaborative has had substantial impact providing the resources and structures to facilitate quality improvement and best practice across partnerships. However, 3
4 given the limited time central funding to sustain the Collaborative, this period up until the end of 2018 will require consolidation of existing activities and assets, alongside the development of business planning that will enable the work of the Collaborative to continue in the most effective way. The options include the Collaboratives transformative mechanisms being transposed into existing partner organisations, or remaining an initiative hosted by the Anna Freud National Centre for Children & Families, which delivers support to services at a cost. These decisions will be influenced heavily by the needs and feedback of the existing partnerships, and the various partner organisations. This Document During the last few months of 2014, the collaborative partnerships were invited to express their views on proposed structures for the collaborative. At that time this document captured the proposed new collaborative governance structures taking into account the views of partnerships and wider stakeholders. Between January 2015 and early 2016 it codified the interim collaborative structures to be maintained whilst the future funding for the CYP IAPT programme was confirmed. Now that funding has been confirmed up until the end of 2018, this document will clarify what the Collaboratives functions are up until that time, and what plans and intentions there are for its life beyond that time. 4
5 Section 1 Goals of the Collaborative The overarching goal of the collaborative is: To - Facilitate continuous quality improvement in children and young people s mental health and well-being provision, across London & the South East of England. Through - The application of CYP IAPT quality improvement principles and to support the implementation of Future in Mind (FiM) and the Five Year Foreword View (FYFV) for Mental Health By various means including - Facilitating close collaboration between partners including NHSE, HEE, Clinical Networks, commissioners, providers, other stakeholders Developing relationships with key strategic organisations that will embed CYP IAPT transformation principles into business as usual Deepening the penetration of CAMHS transformation through CYP IAPT in partnership areas, through the addition of new partner services to existing partnerships, and the continued training of staff Facilitating the sharing of learning and best practice between partnerships Expanding the scope of CAMHS Transformation locally to ensure new opportunities for innovation, e.g. digital, are harnessed. The offer of training, consultation and expertise in quality improvement Developing new training and aligning existing training closely with the needs in services, and with continuous quality improvement in partnerships Encouraging and supporting research and the development of evidencebased practice and practice-based evidence Lobby for, identify and securing funding to support the collaborative goals Lobbying to build capacity across services 5
6 Liaison and influence of key local and national stakeholders Influencing local and national policy to support quality improvement across CYPMH services Support the implementation of policy that improves quality across CYPMH services Monitor and support partnerships in the delivery of CYP-IAPT principles and practices Core Principles The core principles of CYP-IAPT are presented below in Fig. 1.0; they are to provide services that: Value and facilitate authentic participation of young people, parents, carers and communities at all levels of the service Provide evidence-based practice and are flexible and adaptive to changes in evidence Are committed to raising awareness of mental health issues in children and young people, and are active in decreasing stigma around mental ill-health Demonstrate that they are accountable by adopting the rigorous monitoring of the clinical outcomes of the service, and Actively work to improve access and engagement with services These principles are co-dependent and are applied within a culture of collaboration and shared decision-making. 6
7 Fig. 1.0 The Core Principles of CYP-IAPT Participation Evidence -based Awareness Accountable Accessible Vision and Values The collaborative vision is to improve services for the benefit of Children and Young People - the overarching values behind any collaborative decision must be guided by the core value: In what way does this change benefit children and young people with mental health problems? The comprehensive vision and values of the collaborative are set out in the document: Delivering With, Delivering Well (see appendix 1.) 7
8 Section 2. Collaborative Partnership Members Who can join the collaborative? As the programme has a KPI to achieve 100% geographical coverage of the country by 2018, it is necessary to both broaden the reach of the Collaborative into areas not yet covered, and deepen reach in existing areas by expanding partnerships to include other services. The process through which this happens has been almost entirely delegated to the local collaboratives by NHSE. Much of the programme has transferred to HEE, which has the final decision on new partnerships, made on the basis of the Collaboratives recommendations, and completed self-assessment and CEO signed-off commitment to transformation. It is also now possible for partnerships to move between Collaboratives, if they wish, and with agreement between the releasing and receiving Collaborative. Responsibility of the partnership members Partnership members commit to the implementation of CYP-IAPT principles across the organisations. At the point of joining the collaborative Partnerships undertook to: Ensure access and waiting times to treatment do not deteriorate during the training period as a result of this project Ensure that the transformation takes account of the cultural needs of the community they support Commit to all Tier 3 CAMHS, and Tier 2 CAMHS who are part of the project, undertaking session by session/frequent outcome monitoring using the CYP IAPT dataset - now a component of the Mental Health Services Data Set (MHSDS) managed by NHS Digital (formally HSCIC) which is used to guide therapeutic interventions and supervision Move to accept self referrals Create a local steering group to steer the project locally to include health and local authority commissioners, NHS and voluntary sector providers 8
9 Support new partnerships working with their collaboratives as they come on line in future years Work with the HEIs to select appropriately skilled trainees and supervisors Ensure that trainees, supervisors and service managers selected to undergo the training can attend training and can undertake the assignments necessary to pass the training Ensure that the infrastructure and data systems are sufficiently robust to allow data collection of the IAPT data set and ensure data is sent as required Agree that data sent to the programme office becomes the property of the Children and Young People's IAPT Programme Performance Management of the Partnerships The performance management roles of the collaborative and full performance indicators are set out in the document Local Management of the CYP IAPT Programme by Local Collaboratives (see appendix 2.) Benefits to Partnership members Member Partnerships will have access to a range of benefits to help them implement CYP IAPT these could include: training to therapists, supervisors, and leaders and mangers, and teams consultation and guidance, including direct work using a range of Quality Improvement approaches. participation in conferences, workshops and other collaborative events intensive consultation and front line service input (dependant on need and demonstrated commitment to the programme) access to publications including: implementation guidance, and newsletters the opportunity to join and contribute to Collaborative Implementation Groups 9
