@shirleyayres Shorter visit times can be OK in housing schemes with on site carers (eg meds) but HC too fixated on time rather than outcomes

-
@DonnaNewcross @shirleyayres Variations in pricing for part hours, complexity of care plans, skills/training reqd (eg dementia, re-ablement)
-
@DonnaNewcross @shirleyayres Variations in pricing may also depend on overall number of hours in the contract with provider

@clarkmike do they genuinely have budget? When was last government IT contract that went well & delivered all objective? #nhssm
-
-
#nhssm Not sure that NHS orgs ready to listen yet to social media – objections to NHS reforms on Twitter -Bill went through with few changes
-
@clarkmike the challenge is the breadth of their remit. Lots to deliver. Worry is inadequate or half baked #nhssm
-
#nhssm A key question is ‘has social media or feedback sites picked up any of the other 14 hosps now being investigated for mort rates?’
-
-
#nhssm Thought to be the case that CQC are monitoring social media. Problem with quality, accuracy and confidentiality of data

@clarkmike don’t think predictions are possible – but prevalence of places crossed referenced with sentiment analysis is poss #nhssm

#nhssm Validated analysis from feedback sites not currently available to identify where a problem arising
-
@AgencyNurse @clarkmike More possible the bigger you get. Is there a role for a national feedback service here a la @tkelsey1 ? #nhssm
-
@clarkmike you can certainly monitor by geographical location & sentiment and key words & flag increase in -ve comments areas #nhssm
-
@AgencyNurse Not easy to trawl all sources to get sentiment analysis. Also, in a hospital there may be multiple providers on same premises
-

-
@clarkmike @dgfoord @tkelsey1 can’t be used as a sole indicator, would have to be used in conjunction with other indicators #nhssm
-
@James_R_Hedges concerned if you’re not monitoring #socialmedia but agree w/ @clarkmike about quality, accuracy & confidentiality of data
-
@AgencyNurse #nhssm Do you any current published examples of analysis in NHS? Could they have identified any of the 14 additional hospitals?
-
@AgencyNurse @DGFoord @tkelsey1 Yes, agreed – just part of the picture – quant/qual data, Friends & Family Test etc
-
@clarkmike bit.ly/SP9gkt the technology is there,it’s just a matter of applying it appropriately , #NHSSM live data,ask it anything!

@clarkmike certainly be worth someone exploring the data using a social monitoring tool with historical data to see if correlation #nhssm

@AgencyNurse #nhssm Yes, agreed – need to look for correlation-may be able, in time, to spot orgs at risk – Link to staff/pt ratios,outcomes
-
@clarkmike as with anything baselines & norms would need to est but data can be looked at historically – all there, we just need to use it!
-
@AgencyNurse #nhssm Yes, agreed. Is there any evidence on bias for people using forums/microblogging? Is there location/hosp breakdown?
-
@clarkmike there is currently no evidence or data as the possibilities are not being explored – yes you can break down to location..
-
@clarkmike … and yes I am sure that bias exists which is why “normal parameters” need exploring … but the potential is there here & now
-
@AgencyNurse #nhssm Yes, if more data becomes available from a number of sources, bias less of issue. Hotspot map could show up concerns
