The National Service Framework for Older People, Standard 2: Person Centred Care, proposes that the Single Assessment Process means "far less duplication and worry" for the older person, is this reflected
in practice? [summary report] [author: Kim Baker]
(September 2004)
This summary report is of a study conducted as part of an MA at Keele University; it is in two stages. Stage one consists of a literature review that raises issues concerning the implementation of SAP using
evidence from previous research on assessments for older people. (The literature review does not accompany this summary but is available in the full report from the author). Stage two consists of a research project which involved interviewing
older people; exploring the experience of older people assessed using the new process and collating views from professionals via a questionnaire. The Table of Contents are:

Cheshire and Merseyside Teaching PCT Collaborative
Enhancing patient assessment in the Single Assessment Process [authors: Celia Sinnott, Liz Copley, Lisa Ellis]
(September 2005)
Cheshire and Merseyside Teaching PCT Collaborative (CMTPCT) was commissioned to review what was happening with the Single Assessment Process (SAP) across Cheshire and Merseyside, and to design an educational
framework to enhance the process of person-centred assessment at multidisciplinary and multi-agency level. The findings of the review highlight key themes including: cultural change; team working; assessment skills; joint or partnership working;
roles and responsibilities; involvement of service users and carers; legal requirements; Caldicott; data protection; and confidentiality.
This report (72 pp) by CMTPCT Education Facilitators focuses on developing and enhancing SAP competency, addressing inconsistencies found across the region. Local and national sources were used for gathering information, amongst which the Centre
for Policy on Ageing's SAP training database and discussion forum are acknowledged. The report suggests course programmes and examples of teaching and learning strategies and training resources for enhanced assessment. Appendices summarise progress
with training, continued training needs and inter-agency responsibilities in each locality.The information supplied has been taken from reports during 2004 by: David Walker, Co Chair SAP Sub Group, Warrington; Helen Smith and Janet Dunn, Halton;
Claire Moss, Knowsley and Linda Thorley, St Helens SSD/PCT; and Terry Sullivan, Wirral Social Services.

Department of Health
A new ambition for old age next steps in implementing the National Service Framework for Older People; a report from Professor Ian Philp, Director for Older People, Department of Health
(20 April 2006)
This report (24 pp) by the Director for Older People, Department of Health describes progress to date with the government's ten-year National Service Framework (NSF) for Older People, and sets out the
priorities for the second phase. Ten programmes are introduced under three themes: Dignity in care; Joined-up care; and Healthy ageing. Programme 8 - Care records (p14) - covers implementation of the Single Assessment Process (SAP). This section
of the report notes that there has been extensive engagement of health and social care practitioners and managers who have agreed local solutions to meeting SAP requirements. It refers to the White Paper, "Our health, our care, our say" (Cm 6737;
TSO, 2006), which states that a Common Assessment Framework will be developed as a needs assessment for all adults with long-term conditions. Its aims are:
to simplify and extend the SAP approach to all adults with long-term conditions;
to fit SAP implementation into the wider work across local and national government in developing personalised and integrated record systems;
and to ensure that comprehensive assessment is undertaken prior to long-term or residential nursing home care.
It is likely, though, that SAP leads will prefer to use the related Resource document, which includes the text of this report, augmented, and with Appendices and Annexes

NWEGG Single Assessment Programme review of approaches to information governance for SAP in the North West; Version 1.0 [author: Heather Heathfield]
(5 April 2004)
The North West e-Government Group (NWEGG) is a partnership covering all local authorities and many other public sector agencies in the North West region. NWEGG is supporting collaborative projects that will
help the 46 councils in the North West make progress on e-government.
NWEGG has identified single assessment of older people as an important area of common interest within the theme of crossing organisational boundaries. This report (59 pp - Web Link 1) produced by IT Perspectives describes SAP and discusses
implementation issues faced by pilot sites. It introduces the concept of information governance, and outlines the national picture, highlighting some of the general and SAP specific protocols that are available. The report reviews approaches to
information governance taken by SAP projects in the North West, and gives summaries of SAP project pilot sites in: Bolton; Cheshire; Formby and Sefton; Rochdale; Salford; St Helens and Knowsley; Stockport; Trafford; West Lancashire; and Wirral.
Other pilots are: Cheshire and Merseyside SHA Information Governance Project; and North Mersey Information Governance.

North West Electronic Government Group (NWEGG)
IM&T baseline review of single assessment final version 1.0 [author: Portico Consulting]
(4 July 2003)
This is one of several items relating to the single assessment process (SAP) on the North West Electronic Government Group (NWEGG) website.
NWEGG commissioned this report of the findings of a baseline review of IM&T(information management and technology) support for single assessment of older people across the three strategic health authorities in the North West (Merseyside & Cheshire,
Greater Manchester, and Lancashire & Cumbria). The project was prompted by the April 2004 deadline set for the National Service Framework for Older People (NSF) for implementing single assessment. The review was carried out between March and May
2003 using structured telephone interviews (Appendix B) with more than 60 SAP and IM&T leads and the SHA workshops.
The report identifies IM&T requirements for SAP; assesses the situation against these requirements; and recommends actions to making progress The mid-2003 situation across the North West for implementing SAP is summarised under the following
headings: organisation and development; applications; infrastructure; information governance; and person and service referencing. The report also notes pilots elsewhere: discussions were held with Newcastle, Cambridge, North & North East
Lincolnshire, and Kingston.

Warwickshire County Council (as supplied by West Midlands South Strategic Health Authority)
Warwickshire Single Assessment Process: workforce development program written by Jane Blackhall (SAP Project Manager) with consultation with SAP training leads. (Draft 4) [author: Jane Blackhall]
(December 2003).
The Warwickshire Single Assessment Process aims to: provide person centred care; ensure that practitioners work together in a co-ordinated manner to meet the needs of the older person; ensure that assessment
information is shared effectively within and between agencies, and that information is not replicated; actively involve the older person in the assessment process and gain consent to share information between organisations; and ensure that the
assessment is proportionate to the level of need. This document (18 pp) provides information on funding and costings for the program (including a comparison of internal and external provision of trainiing). Possible risks are identified. The content
of courses and workshops is defined for the six levels of training: SAP awareness; Contact Assessment training; Overview assessment training; Specialist Assessment training; management training; and pre-implementation and post implementation

West Midlands Region SAP Implementation Group (as supplied by West Midlands South Strategic Health Authority)
West Midlands Region SAP Implementation Group interpretation of the April 2004 milestones
(13 December 2003)
SAP Leads from both health and social services departments in the West Midlands region have been meeting with the aim of pooling ideas and resources, and exchanging information. This 16pp document has been
compiled by a subgroup (including representatives of the 3 SHAs in the region) which looked specifically at the Department of Health April 2004 milestones. The aim is to agree a collective interpretation of what the milestones mean (and based on
what evidence), and how best to target work in order to achieve them.

West Midlands Regional Single Assessment Process Group
The Single Assessment Process and cross boundary working West Midlands SAP Cross Boundary Project sponsored by ADSS West Midlands Older People's Network [and] Department of Health, Health and Social
Care Change Agent Team [author: Angela Nicholls]
(October 2004)
The ADSS West Midlands Regional Single Assessment Process Group commissioned this project in May 2004 with funding from the Department of Health Health and Social Care Change Agent Team, to address issues of
consistency and compatibility of working arrangements and information sharing across geographical boundaries with respect to the Single Assessment Process (SAP). The Cross Boundary Project has aimed to support a common approach to SAP, by mapping
how SAP has been implemented in the West Midlands, and this report outlines the findings of the mapping exercise.

West Midlands Regional Single Assessment Process Group
The Single Assessment Process and cross boundary working: good practice guide [West Midlands SAP Cross Boundary Project] [author: Angela Nicholls]
(October 2004)
This good practice guide has been produced on behalf of the ADSS West Midlands Regional Single Assessment Process Group. It is based on the findings of the Cross Boundary Project about how the Single
Assessment Process (SAP) is being implemented in the West Midlands and the implications for working across geographical boundaries in the region, principles that can be applied beyond the West Midlands region. The guide covers: understanding cross
boundary flows; a forum for discussion with neighbouring areas; understanding differences; making local agreements; information sharing agreements; moving towards greater standardisation with neighbouring organisations; adopting agreement on cross
boundary working; and moving beyond the documentation. The guide also sets out the elements of a formal Agreement on Cross Boundary Working and Information Sharing.

West Midlands South Strategic Health Authority
West Midlands South Strategic Health Authority regional strategy developing the workforce to deliver the Single Assessment Process in older people's services
(19 September 2003
This strategy (20 pp) aims to fulfil the Department of Health (DH) Guidance on the single assessment process for older people (Health Service Circular 2002/1, Local Authority Circular LAC 2002/1) for
implementing joint workforce development. The strategy should be seen as part of a co-ordinated approach to staff and workforce development that follows from implementation of the NHS Plan and other health and social care policy initiatives,
including Local Delivery Plans. Its aim is to enable all staff (including managers) to develop and demonstrate an appropriate level of skills, knowledge and ability relevant to their role within SAP. The document identifies education, training and
development needs, to link with competencies such as NVQs, and actions required to implement the training plan. Of the appendices listed, only Appendix 1, Competence framework, is supplied.

Progressing the Single Assessment Process in Worcestershire : Evaluation and Action Plan Paper prepared for the Department of Health
(September 2002)
This report details Worcestershire's progress to date of plans for implementation of the single assessment process and outlines future work. A series of pilots in various parts of the county provided a useful
learning curve. The document sets out a number of more detailed conclusions/recommendations. Overall though, it was found that three basic issues needed to be resolved between the organisations in Worcestershire before full implementation of SAP
could be achieved. These issues were: a) the revision of the overall strategy and programme plan; b) the appointment of a Programme Manager to oversee the implementation of SAP and c) to appoint a Project Officer to scope out what was required to
ensure effective information transfer between all parties. 63 pages.
