2019 UK Parkinson"s Audit - Occupational therapy

Dataset

Documentation

Description:
The UK Parkinson’s Audit assesses care provided to people with Parkinson"s by a range of clinical specialties against evidence-based guidelines. The occupational therapy audit includes services providing care to people specifically in connection with their Parkinson’s. Services submit data on their model of service delivery and the assessments which are routinely carried out (service audit) and data on the care provided over the last 12 months to at least ten of their consecutive patients seen during the five-month data collection period (patient audit). No patient identifiers are collected. The audit is open to services across the UK - secondary care (non-acute) and community services. A service is self-defined - for example an individual therapist or a group of therapists seeing the same cohort of patients. There can therefore be more than one service taking part in any Trust or setting. The 2019 audit includes data from 82 occupational therapy services covering 958 patient cases. The data is available by UK Parkinson’s Excellence Network region. The UK Parkinson"s Excellence Network is a network of health and social care professionals working to improve Parkinson"s services administered with support from Parkinson’s UK. Professionals can join the Network to access resources, increase their knowledge of Parkinson"s and collaborate with people affected by Parkinson"s to transform health and care services. The audit is the recognised quality improvement tool for the Excellence Network, providing an important baseline against which progress can be measured, informing national, regional and local service improvement priorities and plans to achieve better services for people living with the condition. The regions are: England: Cheshire and Merseyside East of England East Midlands Greater Manchester, Lancashire and South Cumbria London North East and Cumbria Peninsula South East Coast South West Thames Valley Wessex West Midlands Yorkshire and Humber Scotland: North Scotland South and East Scotland West Scotland Northern Ireland: Northern Ireland Wales: North and Mid Wales South Wales Other: Guernsey Isle of Man Republic of Ireland Information about the regions can be found here: https://www.parkinsons.org.uk/professionals/local-parkinsons-excellence-network-groups
