5.1    Quarter Two Performance Monitoring

 

Members considered the performance monitoring report for the second quarter of 2016/2017.

 

Members raised their concerns in relation to the rate of delayed transfers of care and the decreasing performance. Officers agreed that this was not ideal but they could confirm that the figure was down to 3 in October and is monitored continually.

 

Officers advised that within the report there were a number of new measures that were included that had no data but the data will come through either in the next quarter or at year end. Members were advised that the in house IT system was good at collating the information however, concern was raised that there is an all Wales system proposed for the collation of data.

 

Members asked is the Council being pushed down the pan Wales route or could we market our system to other Councils and raise some income. Officers stated that there would be limited if any opportunities to market our system as all Councils operate in different ways.

 

A question was raised specifically in relation to the assessment team on Delayed Transfer of Care. It was suggested that when they work weekends they have to come into the office to write up their reports. Officers stated that they had no knowledge of this but would investigate.
