1 SAFEGUARDING ADULTS FRAMEWORK Introduction Prevention and effective responses to neglect, harm and abuse is a basic requirement of modern health care services. Safeguarding adults involves a range of additional measures taken to protect patients in the most vulnerable circumstances, patients that are currently defined within No Secrets as vulnerable adults. This may be due to illness, impaired mental capacity, physical or learning disability or frailty brought about by age or other circumstance. Safeguarding adults includes: Prevention: of neglect, harm and abuse through high quality care Responses: effective responses where harm of abuse occurs Learning: to improve prevention and services to patients Purpose of this Framework This Framework sets out NHS Portsmouth Clinical Commissioning Group s arrangements for fulfilling its duty to have regard to the need to safeguard and promote the welfare of vulnerable adults. The Framework aims to: Support the commissioning of high quality care for patients in the most vulnerable circumstances and; Address failures in care with providers and ensure effective responses to allegations of harm and abuse either by CCG employees or by providers and contractor and; Ensure that these responses are in line with the Portsmouth City Council, Southampton City Council & Hampshire County Council Safeguarding Adults Policy 2010 and; Improve services to patients through learning from all case reviews or serious adverse events Improve services to patients through the involvement of vulnerable adults in the development and improvement of services In doing so, it is recognised that this Framework has been developed utilising current guidance as it applies to Primary Care Trusts, the NHS legal entity most closely aligned to the future role and function of the CCG. PCTs will end as entities by April 2013, with CCGs establishing as part of the new NHS structure from that date. Portsmouth CCG will thus review this framework in the light of any revised guidance published during 2012/13. For the purposes of this Framework, reference to PCT duties in current national guidance is taken as indication of the most likely expectations of CCGs with regard to adult s safeguarding.

2 Legislation, Regulations and Guidance People have fundamental rights contained within the Human Rights Act Commissioners as public bodies have statutory obligations to uphold these rights and protect patients who are unable to do this for themselves. Other legislation particularly relevant to safeguarding adults includes: Equality Act 2010 Mental Capacity Act 2005 Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006 Mental Health Act NHS Act 2006 The No Secrets document (Dept of Health, 2000) sets out the standards for the NHS for multi-agency working to safeguard vulnerable adults. Whilst it is the Local Authority who is the lead agency, other agencies such as health, police and housing all have responsibilities with regard to safeguarding vulnerable adults. More recently, the Department of Health guidance Safeguarding Adults: The Role of NHS Commissioners (March 2011) sets the expectation that NHS commissioners must work proactively with all contractors and service providers to ensure safeguarding arrangements are in place that maintain the safety and well-being of those adults who are contractually under the care of the NHS. Safeguarding is also central to the quality of care and the NHS Outcomes Framework (Dept of Health, 2010), particularly: Domain 4: Ensuring people have a positive experience of care. Domain 5: Treating and caring for people in a safe environment and protecting them from avoidable harm. The Care Quality Commission s Essential Standards for Quality and Safety (2010) sets specific outcomes for safeguarding and safety as a requirement for registration for all providers of NHS care. Commissioners have responsibilities to address failures of care in addition to the responsibilities of the CQC. Where the CQC take enforcement action, commissioners have a key role in managing the impact this has on the local health economy. Roles and Responsibilities: Local Authority (Portsmouth City Council) Portsmouth City Council has established the Portsmouth Safeguarding Adults Board (PSAB). This Board has been in operation for a number of years. Portsmouth City Primary Care Trust has been a member of the PSAB and NHS Portsmouth CCG has joined as a member during 2011, ahead of its establishment in April Portsmouth City Council, in partnership with Southampton City Council and Hampshire County Council developed the local safeguarding adults policy ( Safeguarding Adults Policy 2010: Policy and Procedures to Ensure the Prevention and Protection of Vulnerable Adults from Abuse ) which sets out the principles, standards and processes for the prevention of and response to abuse of vulnerable adults locally. NHS Portsmouth CCG will support and adhere to this policy. Page 2 of 7
3 NHS Portsmouth CCG CCGs need to demonstrate that they are meeting their responsibilities to safeguard and promote the welfare of vulnerable adults. In addition they need to demonstrate they are supporting and complying with the Portsmouth City Council, Southampton City Council & Hampshire County Council Safeguarding Adults Policy There are seven fundamental actions expected of NHS commissioners for safeguarding adults: 1. Safeguarding adults as a fundamental part of the commissioning strategy. 2. Systems are in place to set safeguarding adults into all contracting and procurement processes 3. Commissioners have assurance for safeguarding adults standards and processes to escalate concerns and risks 4. Commissioners report on safeguarding adults as part of assurance and accountability. 5. There are clear workforce arrangements in place for safeguarding adults. 6. There are effective working relationships and partnership working in place for safeguarding adults 7. Commissioners can demonstrate how they discharge their roles and responsibilities as a supervisory body as required by the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards These responsibilities are set out in Annex A, with details of the local arrangements NHS Portsmouth CCG will put in place in order to fulfill these responsibilities. Governance Arrangements in NHS Portsmouth CCG Safeguarding arrangements are an integral part of the CCG s Quality and Integrated Risk Management Framework and, as such, will be managed in accordance with the Frameworks and their supporting policies. The CCG will be expected to have a clear line of accountability within the organisation for safeguarding adults. As such ultimate accountability for safeguarding adults will be with the CCG s Clinical Leader (the Accountable Officer ). In order to ensure the duties related to this accountability are discharged and to secure significant executive level management and leadership, the CCG s will be responsible for ensuring the CCG has the correct procedures and capacity in place and that the CCG is fulfilling in full any partnership duties. In doing so, the COO will work closely with the CCG Executive member who holds the Quality & Safeguarding role. Table 1 outlines the roles and responsibilities of these 3 key members of the CCG s Governing Body. Page 3 of 7

The CCG joined the PSAB during 2011 whilst the CCG was operating in shadow running mode, recognising the importance of the PSAB to the CCG post-authorisation in April The CCG is represented on the PSAB by the CCG Executive member (a GP) who holds the Quality & Safeguarding portfolio. The CCG s will act as a deputy. NHS National Commissioning Board The CCG expects that the role of the National Commissioning Board (NCB) will include a responsibility for ensuring the health commissioning system as a whole is working effectively to safeguard and promote the welfare of vulnerable adults. As such Portsmouth CCG fully expects to be reporting to the local regional office of the NCB on local arrangements for discharging its duties regarding safeguarding. Conclusion NHS Portsmouth CCG expects and wants to fulfill the responsibilities and duties placed upon it regarding Safeguarding Adults. The CCG has set out in this Framework how it will set in place arrangements to discharge the safeguarding duties placed on NHS commissioners; the CCG will review this Framework on publication of any further national guidance. The CCG will set these arrangements in place prior to its establishment in April 2013, recognising the importance of having clear arrangements in place during this period of transition.
