Based on the history and cognitive testing Ms X has likely dementia. This raises the following issues;

a) CapacityDisplays capacity to consent to proposed procedure – but requires adequate

time and clear explanation

b) Delirium riskCognitive impairment and poor vision put Mrs X at risk of developing POD. Patient has been counselled about this. When admitted please ensure that; i) Trust delirium guideline is printed, filed in notes and followedii) Deliriogenic drugs are avoided where possible iii) Adequate hydration is maintainediv) Falls risk is assessed (using STRATIFY)v) Day night routine is maintainedvi) Sensory impairments are optimised (I have told Ms X to bring in her

glasses

c) Long term managementPlease could GP monitor and consider referral to memory assessment services.

Delivering evidence based clinical practice

Do we have the evidence to inform practice ?

How do we translate into routine care? (behaviours, attitudes)

How do we change culture and when should we not?

Education and training (knowledge)

Is our workforce ready? Which workforce?

How do we ensure they are?

Research and QIP

Making it relevant to the ‘messy’ patient, the context and the workforce

Understanding service and trust priorities

Top three for a service delivery manager

Trust core values

Collecting ‘relevant’ data Engagement with and embedding within

established teams

Eg Transformation team, Delirium and dementia team, End of life care team

Using the available workforce Ensuring visibility

…is a complex undertaking requiring ….

collaboration across specialties and disciplines

whole system reorganisation (cultural change)

upfront funding

…which raises many questions

Are surgical liaison services generic or subspecialised?

Is this primary care, anaesthetics, organ specific medicine, general medicine or geriatric medicine?

Can we embed specialist knowledge or do we have to embed the specialist?
