As part of our regional review, we have sought to assess the progress made by the Health Board in addressing the recommendations set out in our 2017 discharge planning report.
Specifically, we found that: • the Health Board has made progress developing supporting tools for discharge, but these have not been developed with partners and the communication and monitoring of the tools need improving; • there is clear guidance setting out when patient transport should be used but there is a lack of awareness of the transport booking policy and communicating predicted waiting times continues to be reliant on local arrangements; • the Health Board has taken steps to improve its induction training in relation to discharge but needs to go further to improve refresher training and embed joint training with other partners; and • there is no access for health staff to up-to-date information about waiting times for needs assessments or services to commence, although there are examples of positive integrated working which provide information on a case-by-case basis.
