The Tools

CSIP plans to add to the range of tools available. Tools currently available are shown below.

Currently Available Readiness Tools
Integrated Team Monitoring & Assessment ITMA is a tool to assist those working in and responsible for integrated teamworking – one of the key proposals arising from the 2006 White Paper, Our health, our care, our say. Such teams need to know how well they are working, and they need to be able to improve, but assessing how a team is working is a complex process. ITMA is an appropriate tools for preparing for integrated team working, as well as for assessing subsequent progress.
JSNA Readiness Tool The JSNA Readiness Tool is a tool to assist those in Health and Social Care responsible for ensuring a Joint Strategic Needs Assessment of the population is completed. It covers issues of development and preparation, as well as impact.
Networks Readiness Tool Localities are increasingly being urged to establish a network approach to a range of problems that cross organisational and professional boundaries, but it is not always clear what this means and what sorts of actions need to be taken. The Networks RT offers a means of assessing readiness to use a network model, as well as a way of measuring progress. It includes preparatory links and sources for localities that need to develop their ideas from scratch.
Partnership Assessment Tool 2 PAT2 is a more focused version of the long-standing Partnership Assessment Tool. The focus here is upon inter-agency relationships for any purpose, and the tool identifies the constituents of effective partnering, as well as a means of measuing partnership performance.
