followed with an assessment.

• Assessments mainly provided by PWP’s. We have face to face assessments by

CBT therapist for complex referrals.

• Satellite bases.

• Satellite venues across East Riding + Group Venues- Therapy Centre (main hub)
• Mode of Delivery - Face to Face/Telephone/Online- No home visits

How is our service different?

• Other services might have waiting lists into treatment, maybe lengthy due to

demand and historical waiting lists.

• Some services offer groups to bridge the gap into treatment.
• Our service went 99% telephone for two years – completely eradicated waiting

lists.

• Our current model means that we can now bring people straight into treatment

as the patient has a choice of providers which means the waiting lists have reduced .

• 15% prevalence now increased to 25%. (NHS England, 2014) The EWS is on target

to achieve this.

• 50% national recovery (NHS England, 2014)– EWS on track
• Access standards-
• assessment within 10 days.
• Into treatment within 6 weeks.

How is our service different cont….?

Recent forwarded email from our Manager from NHS England Intensive Support Team!!! “I have been looking at your data over recent months with interest and have noticed the increase in Access Rates, alongside good Recovery Rates, low DNA rates, high paired score completeness to name but a few good areas positive outcomes being evidence in NHS D published data. IST are receiving a number of requests for recommendations of good practice re: increase of Access Rates and sustainability. As Commissioner and Lead provider for East Riding CCG do you have any

• bjections to IST passing on your contact details to other CCG / Providers for them

to make contact with you to learn the lessons?” Well done, and it’s great to see acknowledgement of all your hard work from the very top!

• Senior PWP conference/network
• Based on research
• To reduce sickness, staff turnover and increase team morale.
• Table top discussions
• Own observations/talks within our own team
• Our own wellbeing

PWP Wellbeing initiative

• Clinical skills- added wellbeing as an agenda item: humour and positivity-

discussing something nice. IE, what's your claim to fame, what made you happy

• ver the weekend, can you tell a joke, getting to know you.
• Bringing food, drinks into clinical skills, healthy food to create a safer more

positive environment.

• Table top yoga.
• Occupational health complimentary therapy, ie massages.
• Trying to secure funding to go towards the occupational health therapy.
• Dinner dates
• Walking groups/ running groups within the team.
• Allowing staff to go to tai chi, yoga ran through the trust.
• Asking staff to email there suggestions, ie lunch time walks.
• Changing rooms and hot desking to mix with others.
• Encourage to be mindful to eat and spend time with others, take time away from

the desk.

• Staff room

PWP Wellbeing initiative Challenges so far:

• Staff not wanting to come back to work after they have had the complimentary

therapy.

• Monies- manager/service pot.
• Coverage of the service over the lunch time so this could segregate people.
• Staff not wanting to change desks as staff are being protective over their desk

space, resources etc.

PWP Wellbeing initiative What has worked:

• Clinical skills agenda- brightens mood.
• Staff bringing cakes, fruit to meetings
• Staff going out for lunch time walks, eating dinner together away from their desks
• Staff meeting after work for dinner dates
• Staff walking and running groups
• Table top yoga
• Some staff emailing about wellbeing initiatives
• Positive feedback “Just thought I would let you know as I don't think you give

yourselves enough credit for the small things you do that help in terms of well being”.

PWP Wellbeing initiative

• Unable to compare before an after wellbeing initiative.

Moving forward-

• In discussion with service managers regarding evaluating wellbeing
• Continue to gather feedback from staff and continue to do the items that are

working.

Follow Up Feedback

Following the initial evaluation report of the Step 2 Psychoeducational Group Training, which was delivered across the Yorkshire and the Humber region in March and April 2017A, it was agreed that the Clinical Network would:

• Conduct a follow up questionnaire with attendees of the training to gain an understanding of practitioner

confidence levels post-training and changes to the way in group therapies are delivered. A brief follow up survey was circulated to all 166 participants of the psychoeducational training. The survey asked the following questions: 1. Following the training how much has your confidence to deliver psychoeducational group training increased? 2. Following the training how much has your anxiety around presenting psychoeducational group training decreased? 3. Which skills learned at the training (i.e. using joining statements, setting ground rules, relaxation techniques, debriefing etc.) have you used to enhance your delivery of psychoeducational group courses? 4. What actions, from the plan you created on the day, have you implemented in your delivery of psychoeducational group courses? 5. Is your employer/organisation undertaking any activities to support you in your delivery of psychoeducational group courses? 6. If yes to question 5 - please provide a few comments to explain what your employer/organisation is doing to support you to deliver psychoeducational group courses. The survey received 36 responses and the results are displayed in the following slides.

Follow Up Feedback: Question 3

• 3. Which skills learned at the training (i.e. using joining statements, setting ground rules, relaxation

techniques, debriefing etc.) have you used to enhance your delivery of psychoeducational group courses?

• Joining statements have been very useful
• Relaxation techniques
• Pacing, summarising
• Managing nerves
• Debriefing in particular, as reviewing the session has helped us learn and refine the delivery of future sessions. Also from

now on I allow some time for debriefing with colleagues

• Accepting the anxiety
• Learning I am not on my own feeling nervous
• Patient in pocket, relaxing music on while seating and breaks, breathing and relaxing prior and during presentation.
• Relaxation techniques mainly, help me to stay focused.
• Externalising my behaviours and thoughts rather than internalising everything. This has reduced my anxieties
• Setting ground rules - how normal it is to be anxious. using more examples of own anxiety
• Setting ground rules - being sure to inform the group of the plan such as breaks etc.
• I used these skills prior to the training and already feel they were key skills in delivering groups
• Debriefing and grounding
• Making room for anxiety, using joining statements, setting ground rules, relaxation techniques, debriefing.
• Relaxation techniques and managing my own anxiety
• The importance of meet and great at the start of the course
• Joining statements, asking questions within the dialogue to promote engagement and client thinking and using the 5 areas

to understand my anxiety around delivery.

• Communication tips for engaging with audience as a group conversation
• I do not feel I learned anything more than I already knew
• Not over-preparing
• Joining statements and ground rules
• Setting ground rules.
• Debriefing, joining statements

www.england.nhs.uk

Follow Up Feedback: Question 4

• 4. What actions, from the plan you created on the day, have you implemented in your delivery of

psychoeducational group courses?

• To prepare and know my material, but not to over prepare.
• Setting time to prepare, making sure all equipment is there and working, not cramming before! using relaxation and

grounding techniques

• Ground rules, music
• Most of them thankfully, as my focus was to feel better prepared before presenting which required better planning and time

management, however this is still a work in progress!!

• We always implement ground rules now at the start of a psychoeducational group, as a way of setting boundaries for each

session.

• Preparation of the material and venue.
• Not had to do a group yet but have attended training and it helped
• All of the following were in my action plan and I have implemented them all; patient in pocket, relaxing music on while

seating and breaks, breathing and relaxing prior and during presentation

• I have lost my plan so not sure.
• Setting an agenda, ground rules, and engagement from people that attend . Also preparing beforehand to reduce anxieties
• To move around more to keep things more interesting
• None so far
• To be confident when presenting
• Joining statements
• Added additional material to presentation
• I allow time for debrief
• Relaxation techniques
• More working examples
• Making people feel at ease on arrival and clear explanation of what will happen in each session/section even though I do

this anyway

www.england.nhs.uk

Follow Up Feedback: Question 4 cont.

• 4. What actions, from the plan you created on the day, have you implemented in your delivery of

psychoeducational group courses?

• Meet and great - looking at venue environment
• Worked on my welcome to the group/ making people feel comfortable. Tried to break up the slides (e.g. with something

more interactive or a question or draw on the board) every 20 minutes or so to keep people's attention. Worked on my delivery (e.g. more movement, eye contact with different members of the class, pacing, emphasis).

• Familiarised myself further with the material I am delivering
• Use of music at the start of course and break. Meeting and greeting clients as they come into the room - you are the first

people that they see.

• Relaxation and being prepared well in advance
• Questions within dialogue and joining statements
• Using joining statements, and applying the communication tips for engaging with audience as a group conversation
• We have not delivered groups since the presentation day and I will be implementing things in October.
• Become more familiar with the material I am presenting
• Being mindful of using the anxiety to help me deliver groups rather than allowing to take over and making me feel self

conscious

• Thinking that the purpose of the group is to give information and support people - it's not about how I look so I have made

an effort to remind myself of this before sessions - making me less self-conscious.

• Discussed techniques for relaxation beforehand with my co-facilitator and tried these out together before the session.

the time to take it).

• Supervision
• Stress control class group skills practice.
• Clinical skills groups

www.england.nhs.uk

Conclusion and Recommendations

Overall the follow up evaluation has indicated that delegates continue to find the learning from the training very useful. It is clear that the majority of respondents have made use of techniques learned on the course, such as joining statements, relaxation techniques and setting ground rules. It is also clear that the majority of respondents have implemented some or all of their action plans, including setting time aside for preparation and relaxation and including time at the end of sessions to undertake a thorough debrief. With regards to employer/organisation support only 30% of respondents indicated that they are receiving support to deliver psychoeducational groups. Those that are receiving support advised that this is through a variety of means including protected time, discussions in supervision and group skills practice. However, 70% of respondents are not receiving any employer/organisation support to deliver group therapies. Considering the output of the evaluation with regards to employer/organisation support it is recommended that the Clinical Network highlights the outcomes of this follow up evaluation at the IAPT Providers’ Network and Senior PWP Network to encourage services to work with staff to provide meaningful support in the delivery of psychoeducational groups.
