Reduction In Pressure Ulcer Incidence in Community
Hospital inpatients and on the District Nurse
caseload (excluding patients resident in a care
home)
0.2500
To reduce the reported incidence of people with an
avoidable healthcare acquired pressure ulcer (Grade 2
and above) in:
1) inpatient beds by 40% by the end of Quarter 4
2) community setting by 15% by the end of Quarter 4
Number of Pressure Ulcers (Grade 2 and above)
identified by the provider
1) Baseline position for 2013/14
2) Baseline position for 2013/14
It was estimated in 2004 that the NHS spent £2.1bn
treating pressure ulcers. These figures are a
conservative estimate. 90% of this cost is nursing time.
Evidence suggests that between 4 and 10% of patients
admitted to UK district hospitals develop a pressure
ulcer.

Rationale for inclusion
To improve the management of patients
with specific long term conditions to ensure
patient centred, individualised and
integrated care. To ensure patients have a
plan which clearly identifies agreed
escalation of treatment or management in
the community and aims to avoid
unnecessary admission.
This is a collaborative CQUIN to be
developed in conjunction with Yeovil
District Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.
Patients will have a lead hospital
consultant and a care co-ordinator in the
community This CQUIN utilises the GP out
of Hours Adastra system of ‘Special
Patient Notes’ to inform Out of Hours
services that patients have a specific
escalation plan.
Number of patients with an agreed
treatment escalation plan in place.
Number of patients admitted with the
identified long term condition of the cohort
considered and where a plan is
appropriate.
Builds on the recent NHS England
guidance “Safe Compassionate Care for
Frail Older People using an Integrated
Care Pathway”. The complex chronic
health problems and functional limitations
common in the elderly/long term condition
population place them at risk of
complicated hospital stays. The
preparation of a Management Plan on
discharge from acute and community
hospitals should improve the effectiveness
of discharge planning in identifying clear
pathways of clinical management and care
at home. Patients with increased
functional dependency and problems have
a greater likelihood of readmission and
emergency department usage therefore
there is a need for comprehensive
functional assessment as part of discharge
planning. Suitable cohorts may include
patients with a Respiratory long term
condition e.g. COPD, patients assessed
via FOPAS and those with mental health
diagnoses. The CQUIN will provide
valuable information to support the
Symphony Project in both pathway design
and outcome and measures.
Links to inform out of hours providers
would be established through the use of
the Adastra ‘Special Notes’ system.
