An investigation into the effects of NHS reforms on physiotherapy and its management structures in England and Wales

Jenkins, Fiona January 2016 (has links)
Background. A constantly changing reform agenda has frequently changed NHS management arrangements. Impacts are documented for medicine and nursing but much less so for the third largest profession, physiotherapy. Aims. To evaluate the impact of NHS reforms on physiotherapy analysing whether the resulting management structures impacted on staff and patient care; comparing English and Welsh arrangements with previous periods. Method. Observational mixed methods including a narrative literature review; questionnaire census; semi-structured interviews; physiotherapy narrative history; and a normative evaluation of physiotherapy management structures. Results. NHS reforms had impacted on the structure of physiotherapy management and organisation. Of the eight management structures described in Øvretveit’s (1992) schema: Three were not observed; two were observed but needed modification; three were observed and empirically applicable with small modifications; social enterprises had evolved with management structures similar to those in the NHS. The main changes to physiotherapy managers’ roles between1989-2014 were substantial reorganisations affecting the employing organisation and role of the managers with a reduction in Community Trusts and the introduction of competing providers into English NHS physiotherapy. Clinical autonomy had been extended with advanced practice roles in some areas. The role of the professional body and TU (the CSP) was generally well-regarded by managers. The differences between England and Wales related more to management structures than national policy differences. Conclusions. Most physiotherapists were managed within cross-AHP structures. Devolved structures were increasingly emerging but physiotherapy managers preferred professionally-led structures. Physiotherapy managers ranked the AHP Directorate the highest and the Fragmented structure the lowest. The AHP professions will need to consider merging to conserve their power as professions and to maximise their combined contribution to patient care and organise to meet fiscal challenges in both countries.

Practitioners in the youth justice system : a case study of the youth offending service

Marshall, Daniel James January 2013 (has links)
The central aim of this descriptive and exploratory study is to empirically examine the views and perspectives of practitioners working with young people in the youth justice system in England and Wales. Based on a case study of Peterborough youth offending service (PYOS), the study adopts a multi-method approach. Interviews with 22 practitioners, observations of their practice and key documentary evidence are reviewed, which identify the processes involved in the core practice of key practitioners and a deeper understanding of how policy and legislation reform are experienced in practice. Practitioners play key roles as case managers in the intervention process, yet youth justice literature somewhat neglects the role and perspective of staff within multi-agency youth offending teams (Case, 2007), despite increasing focus on youth justice practice through organisational analyses (see for example, Burnett and Appleton, 2002; 2004a; Field, 2007; Holdaway et al., 2001; Newburn et al., 2002; Souhami, 2007; Stahlkopf, 2008), and much critique of youth justice policy in England and Wales (see for example, Goldson, 2002; Goldson and Muncie, 2006; Pitts, 2003; Smith, 2007). The central argument of this thesis is that knowledge (what is known about effective practice) is not applied effectively in practice. Questions are raised regarding the use of professional discretion and the accountability of practitioners working with young offenders within a perceived managerialist process which neglects individuals needs in favour of achieving targets and performance measures. The findings of this study support the view that the use of standardised assessment tools increase accountability of practitioners whilst reducing their professional discretion, which constrains practice. A lack of structural support created a cultural divide between management and practitioners, which further confounded their practice. Practitioners face a multitude of obstructions to their work with young people, which seem to be further rooted in the prioritisation of recording information and meeting targets, which results in less time attributed to planning and delivering interventions. In a climate of uncertainty for the youth offending service (YOS), in which doubts about its future are frequently raised and further reductions are made to YOS budgets, there is increased need for well-informed and supported practitioners to be working with young people who offend.

Internação Psiquiátrica Involuntária: estudo comparativo das Normas de Saúde Mental do Brasil e Inglaterra/País de Gales / Involuntary Psychiatric Admission: comparative study of Mental Health legislation from Brazil and England/Wales

Brito, Emanuele Seicenti de 06 September 2016 (has links)
A internação involuntária é uma medida controversa que pode levar a violação de vários direitos humanos. Nessa perspectiva, faz-se necessária uma legislação para definir e limitar as circunstâncias em que isso pode ocorrer. Políticas e leis bem formuladas podem promover o desenvolvimento de serviços acessíveis na comunidade, estimular campanhas de sensibilização e de educação, e estabelecer mecanismos legais e de supervisão para prevenir violações aos direitos humanos. Nesse contexto, este estudo descritivo-comparativo apresentou como objetivo analisar as semelhanças e diferenças entre as legislações em saúde mental relacionadas à internação psiquiátrica involuntária no Brasil e Inglaterra/País de Gales. Utilizou-se para o levantamento de dados de pesquisa bibliográfica e pesquisa documental. A análise foi realizada a partir da Lista de Checagem da Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) para a Legislação de Saúde Mental. Para a etapa de comparação dos dados das duas jurisdições, foi utilizado o método comparativo. Sobre os resultados da comparação da Lista de Checagem da OMS com as legislações do Brasil e Inglaterra/País de Gales, na legislação brasileira foram encontrados 52 (31,32%) dos 166 padrões da OMS, enquanto que na legislação da Inglaterra/País de Gales foram encontrados 90 (54,2%). A partir da análise foi possível concluir que: a legislação da Inglaterra/País de Gales traz procedimentos mais claros e detalhados sobre \"internação involuntária\" e possui \"mecanismos de fiscalização\" mais eficazes do que o Brasil; apesar das lacunas quanto aos procedimentos para apelações contra decisões de incapacidade e a revisão da necessidade de um tutor, a legislação apresenta uma boa cobertura sobre \"competência, capacidade e tutela\", tema de elevada importância, principalmente após a ratificação da CDPD, e que o Brasil não aborda em sua legislação; a legislação brasileira elenca um rol maior de \"direitos fundamentais\", porém não prevê \"penalidades\" quanto ao descumprimento desses direitos. Já a Inglaterra/País de Gales cobre amplamente essa questão. As principais semelhanças entre Brasil e Inglaterra/País de Gales referem-se aos padrões que necessitam de revisão: \"Pacientes voluntários\", situações de emergência\", direitos econômicos e sociais\", \"questões civis\" e \"grupos vulneráveis\". Ambas jurisdições também apresentam o mesmo nível de cobertura quanto a \"pesquisa clínica e experimental\", e \"tratamentos especiais, isolamento e restrições\". Em suma, a análise das legislações de saúde mental apresentada neste trabalho sugere que documentos internacionais de direitos humanos, como o Livro de Recursos OMS, são instrumentos importantes e que podem nortear a construção de legislações. É necessário também que a formulação de leis e políticas de saúde mental esteja articulada com os documentos internacionais de direitos humanos como a CDPD. Espera-se que o presente estudo traga a tona a reflexão das autoridades competentes sobre a necessidade de solicitar auditorias mais profundas no âmbito da legislação nacional de saúde mental, realizadas por comitês multidisciplinares, como recomendado pela OMS. A legislação de saúde mental deve estar num processo de constante evolução, centrada na busca da consolidação dos direitos das pessoas com transtornos mentais / Involuntary admission is a controversial measure that can lead to violation of various human rights. From this perspective, legislation must define and limit the circumstances in which this may occur. Well-formulated policies and laws can promote the development of accessible services in the community, stimulate awareness and education campaigns, and establish legal and supervisory mechanisms to prevent human rights violations. In this context, this descriptive- comparative aimed at analyzing the similarities and differences between the mental health\' laws related to involuntary psychiatric admission in Brazil and England/Wales. In order to collect data, the author used bibliographic and documentary research. The analysis was based on the World Health Organization\'s Checklist on Mental Heallth Legislation. To compare data from the two jurisdictions, the author used the comparative method. Results comparing the WHO Checklist with the laws from Brazil and England/Wales showed that the Brazilian legislation meets 52 (31.32%) of the 166 WHO standards, while legislation in England/Wales meets 90 (54.2%). Some conclusions resulted from the analysis: the law from England/Wales establishes clearer and detailed procedures for \"involuntary admissions\" and has \"oversight and review mechanisms\" more effective than Brazil; despite the shortcomings in the procedures for appeals against disability decisions and the review of the need for a guardian, the legislation presents a medium compliance of \"competence, capacity and protection\", a subject of high importance, especially after the ratification of the CRPD, and Brazil does not address these issues in its legislation; Brazilian establishes a larger list of \"fundamental rights\", but does not provide \"penalties\" for the breach of those rights, while England/Wales meets WHO criteria in relation to this issue. The main similarities between Brazil and England/Wales refer to standards that require review: \"voluntary patients\", \"emergency treatment\", \"economic and social rights\", \"civil issues\" and \"protection of vulnerable groups.\" Both jurisdictions also have the same level of compliance regarding \"clinical and experimental research\", and \"special treatments, seclusion and restraint\". In sum, the analysis of mental health legislation presented in this paper suggests that international human rights documents, such as the WHO Resource Book, are important tools which can guide the construction of legislation. It is also necessary that the formulation of mental health laws and policies are articulated with international human rights documents such as the CRPD. In this sense, this study may bring light for a reflection from competent authorities on the need to have audits for national mental health legislations, carried out by multidisciplinary committees, as recommended by WHO. Mental health legislation should be in a process of constant evolution, focusing on the search for the consolidation of rights of people with mental disorders
