Source: Department of Health RTT waiting times. Health Services: Weather Derek Twigg: To ask the Secretary of State for Health (1) whether any NHS trusts have reported issues related to (a) capacity of critical care services and (b) bed availability under his Department’s winter reporting arrangements since 2 November 2010; [27349] (2) whether he has received any reports of problems in patient handover between ambulance and acute services under his Department’s winter reporting arrangements during November 2010; [27350] (3) whether any (a) daily situation reports and (b) NHS trusts have identified services operation problems under his Department’s winter reporting arrangements since 2 November 2010. [27351] Mr Simon Burns: It is for individual local health areas, working with their strategic health authorities (SHAs), to ensure that appropriate services are available for their patients during winter. Where operational issues are identified through daily winter reporting, the Department works closely with SHAs to ensure local winter plans are escalated to mitigate operational risks. There will, on occasion, be peak demands on services in certain places. This can mean temporary measures are necessary, but these are kept to an absolute minimum and patient safety and quality of care are always paramount. Hip Fractures: Older People Emily Thornberry: To ask the Secretary of State for Health what steps he is taking to reduce the variation in number of older people with hip fractures between different local authority areas. [27455] Paul Burstow: There is a significant programme of work in development to address variation. This Government intended the commissioning toolkit to support organisations’ establishment of effective falls and fracture prevention and management, the best practice tariff that is in place which incentivises high quality care; National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence guidance on hip fracture care and the focus on outcomes within the national health service. Insulin Julian Sturdy: To ask the Secretary of State for Health what plans his Department has for the future provision of testing strips for insulin users. [27100] Paul Burstow: Prescribing decisions about blood testing strips are for local determination. It is for the local national health service to ensure that they are commissioning for a comprehensive diabetes service that includes patient education as well as access to blood testing strips. In 2002, the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence issued clinical guidelines on ‘Management of Type 2 Diabetes—Management of Blood Glucose’. The guidelines include advice on the self-monitoring of blood glucose, and state that self-monitoring can have benefits, but it should be carried out as part of an integrated self-care package and if the purpose is clear and agreed with the patient. People with non-insulin-treated Type 2 diabetes, who believe it to be beneficial, and have clearly defined goals and objectives, should be encouraged to continue to monitor. Local Involvement Networks: Finance Ms Abbott: To ask the Secretary of State for Health what arrangements he plans to put in place to ensure continuity of funding to local authorities for Local Involvement Networks prior to the establishment of local HealthWatch organisations; and if he will make a statement. [28201] Mr Simon Burns: I refer the hon. Member to the reply given to the hon. Member for Bristol East (Kerry McCarthy) on 18 November, Official Report, columns 957-958W.
