We overcame our challenges by:

  • Trial and error
  • Consulting with others using

service What’s worked well? Allows multidisciplinary review Implemented Near Me in: Neurodevelopmental Follow-up Clinic

Any top tips? Allow plenty of time

What have been the enablers? Staff support What have been the challenges? Technological hitches!

Neurodevelopmental Clinic Top Tips for Preparing to Attend Anywhere  Ensure you have good Wi-Fi connection and that your device is well charged before the appointment.  Ensure you have access to Google Chrome or Safari.  Please use a well-lit room. This makes it easier for the clinicians to see your child accurately.  Have your baby/child dressed in vest and nappy with their bare feet. This will help the physiotherapist to see exactly how they are moving. We may ask you to encourage certain movements with your baby/child so they need to be able to move easily and freely.  We may need you to have your hands free to position your baby/child during the session. If so, please be able to prop your device securely so we can see your child when you’re not holding your phone/ tablet or laptop.  It may be helpful to have a selection of toys available to motivate them during the session.  Please do not record the session or take screenshots, unless discussed and agreed with the clinic team.  Following the session, we will write up notes in your child’s records in the same way as we do following face-to-face appointments. In the event of any technical issues arising, a member of the clinic team will phone you.

What is remote?

  • remote can be…

– geographical – social – transport link related

slide-44
SLIDE 44

My current practice…

  • Base - Aberdeen
  • Clinics-

– Inverness – Dundee – Shetland

  • Patient location - one clinic =

– Wick/Thurso/Fraserburgh/Braemar/Oban/ Tomintoul/Kinlochbervie/Skye /Fort William

slide-45
SLIDE 45

How my use of Near Me evolved… PreC era

  • Telephone consultation
  • advantages

– no travelling – no need to miss school / work – quicker… – can deliver from anywhere

  • disadvantage

– review only.. (?) – can’t examine – child/YP can’t always engage –

  • nly 1 parent often
slide-46
SLIDE 46

Initiator of change…

  • enforced and rapid need to

change practice

  • discussion with colleagues

around options available

slide-47
SLIDE 47
  • Near Me / Attend Anywhere
  • advantages

– no travelling – Less (?no) need to miss school / work – can see child / YP – can inspect (not examine) – child/YP can engage via video – easier for both parents – invite in a colleague – can deliver from anywhere

  • disadvantage

– can’t examine – can’t inspect sensitive body areas

How my use of Near Me evolved… PostC era

slide-48
SLIDE 48

When do I use…?

  • predominately review appointments
  • increasing new if examination not

likely to be required

  • pre-operative discussions
  • discussion were both parents

preferable

slide-49
SLIDE 49

My criteria for offering…

  • Was…

– reviews only – distance – complex needs with multiple appointments – parental request

  • Now…

– any review – selected news

slide-50
SLIDE 50

Personal “audit”

  • Overwhelming majority feel it was as

good/better

  • 1 – needed to rebook as unanticipated

need to examine

  • 1- discharging and wanted to do “in

person”

  • may be “covid effect”….
slide-51
SLIDE 51

What else can I see this offering me …

  • Doing NM from Inverness Clinic

to Skye/Thurso…

  • Parent doing consultation at

school with child?

  • Inviting parents to record

consultation for review later?

slide-52
SLIDE 52

NHS Grampian

What have been the enablers? We have an established culture of video conferencing A96/A9… Enthusiastic early engagement be senior clinicians Early flexibility by OPD teams Hardware already available Enthusiastic and flexible engagement by local Near Me team Widespread use of MS Teams for meetings What’s worked well? Setting up of clinics “Persuading” staff to move across Link with Trakcare Text reminder function…

Panel Q & A

slide-70
SLIDE 70

Try setting up practice Near Me calls with colleagues to understand the patient and clinician experience. If you are emailing patients and families with information about Near Me, remind them to check their ‘junk’ folder. Using a headset can

  • ften provide better

audio quality than using a built-in laptop microphone. Develop a checklist to help you remember the steps you need to take before, during and after the consultation whilst you get used to the technology. Conversations flow differently on video than in person. You may want to address the child/young person early in the consultation to ensure their voice is heard. Ask parents and responsible adults to use the child/young person’s name on Near Me. This will make it easier to find them in the waiting room. Try to test your equipment prior to starting consultations. For example, run a test call on attendanywhere.org.uk. If you experience technical issues during a Near Me consultation, switch to a phone call while you resolve them. Viewing patient files on a separate screen can make the Near Me consultation run more smoothly. Online information and web links could substitute pamphlets and written resources for patients. Supporting administrative staff to monitor the online waiting room can benefit your system processes. Multidisciplinary team reviews can be set up by inviting other professionals to Near Me appointments.

Paediatric clinician top tips for using NHS Near Me

Data source: Information was collected from paediatric services who discussed their experiences with Near Me across two webinars held 2 June 2020 and 5 June 2020

Top tips for using NHS Near Me

Data source: Healthcare Improvement Scotland learning while supporting teams with Near Me

Getting started 1. Getting equipment in place early can make Near Me appointments as easy as phone calls. 2. Try setting up physical meeting rooms to run Near Me in your service – this can help in particular if you are short on IT equipment 3. Try working through realistic clinical situations when learning to use Near Me 4. Small tutorials can help with staff buy-in and to understand clinician and patient perspectives. 5. Utilise the learning webinars by the national Near Me team Support 1. An effective project team includes project and IT support and engaged clinicians. 2. Don’t hide communication errors if they

  • ccur. Acknowledge the

limitations of the technology and ask for clarity. 3. Identifying local champions can support teams’ confidence using Near Me. 4. Enthusiasm from managers goes a long way. User experience 1. Multidisciplinary team reviews can be set up by inviting other professionals to Near Me appointments. 2. Use teach-back style questions to provide assurance that service users understand exactly what they are being asked to do. 3. Use a smartphone or tablet for Near Me ( on WiFi) call allowing you to use computer for access to clinical system. Processes 1. Work closely with Near Me lead to plan waiting room processes and manage booking appointments. 2. Adapt existing resources to provide SOPs, check the Near Me website for guidance documents. 3. Using local data can help you understand Near Me in your context and provide rapid feedback to teams. 4. Try scheduling breaks in between meetings and appointments - otherwise, you may go a long time without moving from your seat. 5. Build into current processes as an option rather than a stand alone project. Going forward 1. Using the Plan, Do, Study, Act (PDSA) framework can help support successful Near Me implementation. 2. Involve, listen to and capture feedback from the people who are involved with and who will deliver and receive the service 3. This change could be a catalyst for digitising

  • ther parts of the

service, such as clinic notes.
