Minutes
Members Briefing – Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA)
As part of continued learning and development the Member’s briefing session held on 8 January included a presentation by the Public Health team on the JSNA. The learning would support the Committee when scrutinising the JSNA as it is presented at a future meeting the Select Committee.
Suicide Prevention Training
Everyone has a role to take in preventing suicide, through talking about mental health and suicide and encouraging people to reach out when they need help and support. Knowing how to spot the signs and take appropriate action can help to save a life. In Hampshire, there are a range of training options available that we can all undertake.
Zero Suicide Alliance (ZSA) offered free suicide awareness online training and was recommended to be undertaken by everyone and took just 20-30 minutes to complete. This training helps to identify when someone is presenting with suicidal thoughts/behaviour, to gain confidence to speak out in a supportive way and signpost to services or help.
For more in depth training on suicide prevention, Suicide First Aid ‘Lite’ provided basic knowledge and tools to help someone with thoughts of suicide stay safe from their thoughts and stay alive; and Suicide First Aid goes further to explore and practice the skills and knowledge needed.
Recommendations on the National Review of Maternity Services in England 2022-2024
Members noted the draft written response from Hampshire and the Isle of Wight to the national review of maternity services recommendations. A full report and officer presentations from both Hampshire and Isle of Wight and Frimley ICBs to be received at the next meeting of the Select Committee.
Building Better Emergency Care
A second visit had been offered by Portsmouth Hospitals to visit the Emergency Department based at the Queen Alexandra Hospital when Members met with senior clinicians and key members of staff.

Minutes
The Chairman welcomed James Roach, Primary Care Director and Lisa Medway and Martyn Rogers of Hampshire and Isle of Wight ICB. The Select Committee heard:
- The development of the health and wellbeing hub was viewed as an opportunity for a new service model and future models of care and would deliver the appropriate size from the outset. Built into the flexible site design were opportunities to expand, and it had been future proofed for population growth.
- There had been no decision on the status of the Chase Hospital which ultimately would be the responsibility of NHS Property Services.
- Possible options for the relocation of community mental health service included Surrey.
- The proposals were considered an enhancement to meet complex medical needs and not a substantial variation to future service provision and would support the out of hospital model of care. IT would be explored to enhance and deliver care.
As part of the continued commitment to the delivery of a new service model at the health hub, negotiations between the Chase Hospital resident GP, pharmacy and developer continued towards the signing of the lease. The Chase Hospital remained a working concern with no immediate service changes and would remain in operation until a viable option had been delivered
In terms of context, inpatient beds had previously been relocated in 2013 and that the planned health hub aligned with the national direction and consultation outcome. The Hub would include a single point of access for diagnostics and again was an alignment with government health initiatives. The overall service model had been driven by results of consultation.
The Select Committee remained concerned about the resident GP continuing with their planning application on the Chase Hospital site. Officers confirmed that there had been no plans for expansion on the hospital site and discussions around the practice relocation continued.
The Committee had a discussion in terms of the report content and did the proposal represent a substantial change to services, if so, would a recommendation to Council to make a referral to Secretary of State be appropriate at this stage. Legal support clarified the report did not represent a substantial change to services and that the Committee could not make a referral to Council on a matter that was in future.
Hampshire and IOW ICB officers agreed to continue to provide updates on planned site and lease agreement status and on the accommodation size and an on update milestones.
Councillor Andy Tree proposed an alternative recommendation to the report, in the absence of a seconder, the proposal was not supported by the Committee.
Under 1.13.8.3. of Part 3: Chapter 3 of the Constitution this committee does not consider this proposal in the best interests of the health service in Hampshire, taking into consideration potential population increases in Whitehill & Bordon area (and/or anything else that may come up in agenda item)
The committee resolves that the conditions of 1.13.9 are satisfied aside from 1.13.9.4 where the committee agrees to make a request under 1.13.9.4 to Council, to refer to the Secretary of State under 1.13.9.

Attachments:
- Document Hampshire and Isle of Wight Elective Hub (Hampshire Orthpaedic Centre) 06 Jan 2025
Minutes
Ms Julie Maskery, Strategic Projects Director for Hampshire Hospitals was welcomed to the meeting and invited by the Chairman to make her presentation.
The Select Committee heard that
- The construction programme had experienced some delays but was back on track with an expected completion in July and the opening scheduled in October.
- Positive reporting regarding recruitment and staffing with both Portsmouth and Southampton hospitals sharing their clinicians with the hub. Recruitment of lead practitioners and internationally recruited nurses was due to start in February.
- Clinical practices and processes would utilise best practice from across the country with a particular focus on clinical, digital and practice processes to maximise patient treatment.
- The facility would house a larger OPD with dedicated orthopaedic and fracture clinic facilities.
The hub, similar to other nationwide centres of excellence would perform elective planned surgeries with patients from across Hampshire. Post operative care would be delivered for the first 14 days by the hub following this period patients would be discharged back to their home trust.
Members were keen to hear if Hampshire had experienced an increase in requests for weight loss injections to meet surgery requirements. The Director of Public Health emphasised the need to change behaviours as opposed to relying on medication.
The Health and Adult Social Care Select Committee
RESOLVED to note the update and progress of the proposals.

Minutes
The Director of Adults’ Health and Care, Director of Public Health and Financial Planning Manger delivered a presentation to the Select Committee for approval in advance of the decision being taken by the Leader and Cabinet of the revised budget for 2024/25, proposed 2025/26 budget and officer proposed SP25 phase 2 savings for Adults’ Health and Care. The final decision would be made by the County Council in February 2025.
The Select Committee commented that details of proposed savings were not immediately evident within the report, and that some of the details of proposed savings were found within the equalities impact assessment. Officers confirmed that there had been several aspects to the phase 2 proposals unlike that of the existing phase 1 savings. There had been several proposal and aspects of the budget that were under review with no options confirmed, however areas of review were investigation of what the current spend would be, high-cost placement with small extension of work already happening. As a service the direction of travel was to move away from residential care and the department would seek to look at efficiencies and retain effectiveness whilst limiting the impact of the public.
Funding for a responsible adult to be present when children and young adults were being questioned in custody remained a statutory requirement however for those vulnerable adults this was not a requirement and it had been recognised that the police would receive funding from other revenue streams, this may represent an area of savings. The department had been in conversations with the police regarding future appropriate adult funding and had engaged with the OPCC to ask about the impact of HCC proposals, the outcome of these discussions may for the subject of a future executive member decision in the spring. Officers reported that it would be a surprise if there was any substantive change. There is a continued requirement to have a responsible adult when interviewing a vulnerable adult.
The Committee commented that the national efforts to retain and attract an efficient workforce were crucial and felt that this should be aligned with future funding.
With the increase in residential care costs as the number of patients entering residential care increases this would increase financial pressures on HCC to support them. Officers noted the difficulty in sharing the detail around those not receiving care as the HCC only provides 40% of domiciliary care in Hampshire.
The Health and Adults’ Social Care Select Committee
RESOLVED to:
Support the recommendations being proposed to the Executive Lead Member for Adult Social Care and Public Health the attached report.

Minutes
The Chairman invited the Director of Adult’s Health and Care supported by the Adult’s Financial Planning Manager to present the report to allow Members to pre-scrutinise the proposals for the Adults Services Capital Programme for 2025/26 to 2027/28 which was due for consideration at the decision day of the Executive Lead Member for Adult Social Care and Public Health on 21 January 2025.
The presentation outlined a capital programme budget of 29,857 for 2025/2026.
The reported top challenges included
- An increase in the number of adults with eligible care needs accelerated demand for services, coupled with growing complexity of need and increased frailty in the over 75’s (forecast to grow 20% by 2029).
- High demand and cost pressures within the NHS which continued to have an impact on demand for social care services and placement costs.
- Increased volatility in the provider market as cost pressures associated with uplifts to national insurance contributions and the national minimum wage come into effect in 2025.
The departments top priorities included:
- The achievement of further financial savings as part of the SP25 programme.
- The development of the demand management strategy to divert customers away from long term care wherever possible and to allow social work teams to focus on those with more complex needs.
- The continued focus on independent living at home, including take up of technology and direct payments.
- Partnership working with the NHS to ensure that Better Care Funds are being used to protect and enhance social care provision.
- A focus on accommodation options which promote independence (Supported Living for younger adults and Extra Care schemes for older adults) and in-house services that support the more complex/dementia needs in areas of greatest demand.
