• NHS Commissioning Board to be established
• Establishment of Health & Well Being Boards
• New statutory duties for health improvement to LAs

• Public Health functions to move to LA by April 2013
• Public Health England to be established bringing together key regional and national functions eg Health Protection
• Ring fenced Public Health budget for LA and Public Health to commission key activity
• HealthWatch
Health & Well Being Board
• Statutory HWBBs in every upper-tier LA – from April 2013 – (Notts is an early implementer site with a shadow board since May 2011)
• Duties on Clinical Commissioning Groups and LAs to prepare the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) via the HWBB.
• A new Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy, prepared by the HWBB and based on the needs identified in the JSNA
• The HWBB has a duty to support and promote integrated working between health and social care commissioners including for wider determinants of health e.g. housing.
• Membership includes DPH, DASS, DCS, Elected Members, District Council Leader reps, and LINks
Joint Strategic Needs Assessment
• Preparing the JSNA is a core function of health and social care commissioners as a way to assess current and future health and wellbeing needs in an area.
• Commissioners will each be required to have regard to the JSNA and the Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy when developing their own commissioning plans.
• Local agreement to refresh current JSNA by March 2012 (not the CYP chapter)
Joint Health & Wellbeing Strategy
• The Health & Wellbeing Stategy (HWS) must consider the use of health act flexibilities (e.g. pooled budgets, lead commissioning).
• The HWS must have regard to the NHS Commissioning Board mandate to ensure consistency nationally
• Each commissioner must have regard to the JSNA and HWS when deciding their commissioning plans
• Local agreement to draft HWS by March 2012
• The strategy will be developed focusing on life stages with sections dedicated to maternal health, children and young people.
• Children’s Trust priorities will be included in the strategy.
HealthWatch• Ensure that the views and feedback from people who
use services, carers and members of the public are integral to local commissioning
• Provide advocacy and support to people and help them to make choices about services
• Provide intelligence for HealthWatch England about the quality of providers
• LINks functions will be included within HW however national research has highlighted many barriers to engaging children and young people[1].

Public Health• Transfer of power from central
government to local communities• Joined up approach through local
government via Directors of Public Health• Public Health England to lead on health
protection & health improvement nationally
• Ring fenced public health budget • Stronger focus on outcomes
• Healthy Lives, Healthy People – our strategy for public health in England (2010)
• Healthy Lives, Healthy People – the way forward (2011)
Children’s Health - the scale of the challenge
• There is a 9% projected increase in the birth rate over the next 20 years.
• 24% of mothers giving birth in hospitals in the north of the county smoke at the time of delivery - well above the national average.
• More children and young people with profound disabilities and long-term conditions are living longer and surviving into adulthood.
• There is a clear relationship between deprivation and emergency hospital admissions.

Joint Commissioning In recent years, there has been an increased focus onstrategic children’s commissioning activity being undertaken jointly, including:
• The joint assessment of the health and wellbeing needs of the local community - through the JSNA
• Joint planning to achieve improved outcomes across shared priorities – through the CYPF Plan
• Developing systems for evaluating services that address these shared priorities
• Aligning budgets to reduce duplication and improve performance
Current Joint Commissioning Priorities
• Disability• Emotional Health and Well Being• Alcohol and Drug Use • Teenage Pregnancy • Childhood Obesity
• All priorities have joint commissioning groups and strategies (teenage pregnancy plan soon to be developed)
