Agenda Item 7 TSAB Quarter 3 Performance Report Presenter: Angela Legg
The following key points were raised:
 The number of Concerns are becoming more consistent across Tees
 The Tees conversion rate from a Concern to a Section 42 Enquiry is also becoming more
consistent. The Key Performance Indicator (KPI) criteria has been reviewed recently since the
National data was publicised. Tees are comfortably meeting this KPI and are above the national
average.
 The two main areas of abuse continue to be Neglect & Acts of Omission and Physical.
 The number of Section 42 Enquiries within the Neglect category within Care Homes has
increased during the first 3 quarters. Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council has contributed a
high proportion of these due to some focused work through the Responding to and Addressing
Serious Concerns Protocol.
 The two main locations of risk continues to be Own Home and Care Homes – this aligns with
national figures
 The number of alerts / contacts for TEWV reported to safeguarding decreased this quarter – this
can be looked at in more detail for the Year End Report
 The number of Concerns referred from NTHFT to the LAs has increased. These are in relation to
Neglect, however there have been some other themes emerging relating to Self-Neglect, ulcer
care and the physical condition of the person on discharge
 The number of Concerns referred from STHFT to the LAs has increased with similar themes to
NTHFT’s data – this can be looked at in more detail for the Year End Report
 The number of crimes recorded has decreased – the Business Unit has met with DF to look at
what data can be provided going forward
AB requested that more time is allocated to discuss the next performance report and to perhaps look at
themes.
