Audit of acute inpatient compliance with Royal College of Psychiatrists’ UK standards
Muhammad Adnan Hafeez
Dr Sulaiman Al Habib Medical Group, Saudi Arabia
In 2008, the Royal College of Psychiatrists’ Fair Deal campaign recorded that mental health services have lagged behind
physical health services, in that inpatient care in some hospitals did not meet acceptable standards. It was considered that
inpatient services needed continued investment to make the service users’ experience healthier, safer and more conducive
the proper clinical recovery and rehabilitation. A random sample of admissions were identified over a 3 month period and
data collected from the Trust’s clinical information system.The data was entered and analysed in SPSS, and graphs completed
in excel. All aspects of confidentiality were maintained throughout the project. The initial audit was completed in April
2013 and demonstrated that the acute inpatient ward was not achieving 100% compliance for all the standards. 3/15 (27%)
achieving 100% compliance and 5/15 (33%) achieving less than 50% compliance. Overall the re-audit has shown a significant
improvement in 12 of the 14 standards – 6 standards achieving 100% compliance; 5 standards achieving over 80% compliance
and one standard achieving 64%. The bed occupancy rate remains 100%, 15% more that the recommended optimum 85% bed
occupancy.The number of beds remains over capacity at 22 beds, instead of the recommended 18 beds for an acute psychiatric
ward.The provision of therapeutic activities remained the same with 93% compliance, however there number of activities per
week has increased from 78% to 82%.
Recommendations: To continue to maintain 100% compliance and improve the standards not achieving full compliance.
