Avon, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire SHA
The Single Assessment Process training resource [author: Avon, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire SHA] (July 2003)
This training resource sets out the key issues relating to joint working, SAP, and information sharing and consent, using a variety of tools, including narrative text, PowerPoint presentations, exercises, case studies and handouts. It also includes a glossary of terms. The CDROM has printable PDF versions of these materials, along with editable PowerPoint files for the three presentations on joint working, the single assessment process, and the Data Protection Act and Caldicott principles.
The pack is intended for use in multi-agency training. It is not designed to be used in isolation, and it is expected that trainers will add to it according to local need and following further learning through pilot sites. It is assumed that trainers using this training resource will be linked into the development of SAP locally, and will be working closely with the project leads who wrote and compiled the resource.
The resource has been produced as a joint initiative by a group of project managers and trainers from the Avon, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire Strategic Health Authority (AGW SHA): Paulette Nuttall (Bristol), Sheila Turner (South Gloucestershire), Marilyn Hughes (Swindon), Richard Pople and Jane Towler (North Somerset), Bo Novak (Bath and North East Somerset), and Marianna Poulton (Wiltshire).

Harrow
Contact Assessments and GPs [authors: Sylv Sheehan and Ann Knight]
Powerpoint presentation describes a pilot on contact assessments developed for Harrow GPs and Virtual Care Teams. The aim was to secure GP involvement (in one practice) and create an integrated team for the practice. The authors designed a 'mail merge' Word document which picks up information from the GP database (EMIS) and deposits it into a contact assessment. This is a useful interim, interim solution which allows data to be pulled directly from the EMIS system. It is proving successful in the practice it is being piloted in and now being rolled out to other practices in Brent.

Harrow
Self Assessment project - Harrow how it started ... [authors: Sylv Sheehan] (November 2005)
Powerpoint presentation (13 slides) at the London SAP Leads meeting in November 2005, outlining research on the usefulness or otherwise of telephone reviews (done by around 20% of authorities contacted), telephone assessments (done by 3 out of 24 authorities contacted) and self assessments (5 out of 25 authorities contacted). The impetus for considering self assessment (which is the same as self reporting) in Harrow has been the Government's thrust towards self care and self management. The presentation identifies three models of self assessment: short (Bolton), medium (Torbay) and Long (similar to overview, Southend). However, reasons are given why this form of assessment may not always be appropriate.

Health and Social Care Group, Institute of Health Sciences and Public Health Research (formerly Nuffield Instittue of Health), University of Leeds
Single Assessment Process and the involvement of the voluntary sector a project commissioned by Leeds Older People's Forum on behalf of the City-wide SAP Implementation Group [authors Jean Townsend, Jeanette Moore] (March 2005)
PowerPoint presentation (27 slides) on the authors' small scale research into voluntary sector involvement in SAP in Leeds. They found that most areas are struggling with how they can involve the voluntary sector in SAP; and although they found a few other examples of voluntary organisations' involvement (in North Tyneside, Northamptonshire and Hertfordshire), they are not aware of any guidance from national voluntary organisations. The presentation covers voluntary sector and statutory agencies' perceptions; strengths and attributes that voluntary sector organisations could bring to the SAP process; and concerns and issues regarding voluntary sector involvement.
Leeds Older People's Forum and Sally Mayfield (the SAP Project Manager), who commissioned the research, are now working actively to pick up on the recommendations.

NEYNL SAP Network
Experiences from SAP implementation in South Tyneside NEYNL SAP Network meeting, 28 July 2005 [author: Jacqui Straughan] (28 July 2005)
South Tyneside's SAP system went live on 28 February 2005, and this 10 slide Powerpoint presentation gives reasons for implementing SAP as an early adopter. It outlines the lessons learned, given slow take-up in some teams and the delays in going live. Recommendations to new SAP deployments are made. Nonetheless, benefits have been achieved around the sharing of information and the client becoming the focal point of the assessment. Plans for further SAP rollout during 2005 and and 2006 are outlined.

NHS Connecting for Health (formerly NPfIT)
A national framework for implementing electronic SAP project update; and Summary of the recommendations [author: Jan Hoogewerf] (August 2006)
The e-SAP project was initiated by NHS Connecting for Health (formerly NPfIT) in response to recommendations made by the National SAP Action Team to the National Programme Board.
The project update (1 p) is a briefing paper. It provides an update on the National Framework for Implementing Electronic SAP: the outcome of Stage 1 (which assessed options and made recommendations on an information systems architecture for electronic SAP); and plans for Stage 2, the work programme and business case.
The summary of recommendations (document , 4 pp) includes the results of consultations on requirements for, and implementation of, e-SAP, the key elements being: a person centred assessment, care planning and review process; the Single Assessment Process integrated with electronic care records; seamless access to SAP assessments and care plans, wherever they have been carried out; support for workflow and communications across organisational and cluster boundaries; and information sharing subject to consent and in line with the NHS Care Records Guarantee. A business case will still be needed; the survey identified potential benefits of e-SAP, e.g., improved quality of care, improving the referral process, and reducing unscheduled admissions. Survey responses also identified gaps between these requirements and current e-SAP implementations, for example, lack of integration between SAP and other systems, and lack of standards. Recommendations are made on an information sharing model and deployment options, based on results from the consultation.
A powerpoint version (15 slides) of the summary of recommendations comprises: project outline; consultation process; e-SAP requirements; e-SAP principles; potential e-SAP benefits; current situation; information sharing model; information governance and exchange standards; deployment of e-SAP solution; national services to support local implementation; concluding with potential phasing and next steps (by October 2006).

Delivering Single Assessment within the NHS National Programme for IT [author: Dr Paul Whatling] [January 2005]
Powerpoint presentation explains aims of NHS National Programme for ITand charts process of integrating SAP within the NHS information technology programme. A key element is the electronic storing of patient records to improve sharing of information to those with authorised access.

North Somerset Council
SAP from paper to electronic delivery [authors: Mary Hammond and Andy Moll] February 2006
Power point presentation describes the strategies developed to implement the Single Assessment Process. From an early stage managers felt that an e-solution was required for sharing information successfully. North Somerset Council is using mobile technology to enable the process of assessing the needs of older people and for vulnerable adults. It has drawn on Cambridgeshire's experience of using tablet PCs for the single assessment process collecting data for several agencies at once - Project Nomad pilot. North Somerset's tablet PCs will upload and download data either while staff travel between interviews or when they have access to high-speed data transfer through a home broadband connection, a council office or a library.
Project Nomad - the National Project is sponsored by the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and is dedicated to mobile and flexible working in local authorities. Cambridgeshire County Council, the original lead authority for Project Nomad, has now taken responsibility for it , providing a 'safe home'. Current plans are to continue to promote mobile and flexible working, making use of mobile technology, via the Nomad website, through events, through partnership and collaborations with local authorities, regional centres of excellence and other organisations.
