8. Political engagement "Current services for people who suffer major trauma are not good enough. There is unacceptable variation, which means that if you are unlucky enough to have an accident at night or at the weekend, in many areas you are likely to receive worse quality of care and are more likely to die. The Department of Health and the NHS must get a grip on coordinating services …." Amyas Morse, head of the National Audit Office, 5 February 2010

9. Our Network This document refers to all severely injured patients, meaning those who have suffered potentially life-threatening or life-changing physical injuries, i.e. all those who could benefit from regional networks. www.excellence.eastmidlands.nhs.uk

10. East of England … past • 18 Acute Hospitals • One regional Ambulance Service (EEAST) • Range of charity sector pre-hospital ‘enhanced care’ providers (e.g. Air Ambulance Charities) • Range of specialist acute, reconstruction and rehabilitation services • Range of specialist and general community rehabilitation services

11. Primary transfer zone? EoE Hospital Type 1 ED EoE Major Trauma Centre Primary (peak and off –peak 45 minute) transfer zone Drive-time isochrones on this map were generated using averaged GPS-based road segment speeds from ITIS GPS Floating Vehicle Data against the Navteq Premium Streets database. For normal peak speeds, ITIS vehicle (car) speeds between the hours 07:00-09:00 and 16:00-19:00 were averaged. For off-peak speeds, ITIS vehicle (car) speeds excluding the hours 07:00-09:00 and 16:00-19:00 were averaged.

21. DH Peer Review Feedback Overview “The strengths of the EoE trauma network are multiple. It has from the outset planned to be a true trauma network. The panel noted from the visit as well as the supporting documentation that the network is well developed and benefits from excellent engagement and clinical leadership. The network has focused on an inclusive design with evidence of strong commitment and clinical consensus achieved through appropriate boards and other trauma groups, which are held regularly and have clear governance in place. The patient pathway is well defined and there are good facilities throughout the ED and supporting departments.”

22. DH Peer Review Feedback Commended • True attempts at whole network engagement • The TEMPO resource • The outreach service (NCS and facilitated transfer) • The well-developed and defined Trauma service delivery pathway • Trauma team processes (activation, composition, leadership) • Radiology provision • The flexibility and commitment shown by the ITU team • The work undertaken to improve the provision of rehabilitation

23. DH Peer Review Feedback Commended • Rehabilitation is an undoubted success and is one of the strong points within the Network. • The service is well developed compared to a number of other Trauma Networks and this is as a result of good clinical leadership and investment in a complete new unit. • The appointment of rehab consultants to lead this has been an undoubted success • The [RAAR] has a good multi-disciplinary team, who appear to have the necessary skills, to deliver effective rehabilitation to trauma patients. The unit is very well equipped.
