Peer
Compass Peer Groups connecting serevices with the people we serve
by Jan Smith, Operations Director
Compass Operational Services and the children, young people and families we serve are benefitted by having informed, innovative and engaged people working together to improve and develop services. One of the ways we want to encourage practitioners to do this is by connecting with peers from across the organisation to share new initiatives and ideas, learn from one another and develop together. With this in mind Peer Practice Development Forums are encouraged and supported by the organisation to provide opportunities for colleagues in the same or substantially similar roles to engage with colleagues from across the organisation where local networks are not available as a result of lone roles.
Peer Practice Development Forums are designed to be inclusive of all colleagues in the same role in different teams.
What they are:
- Venues for collaborative skills sharing.
- Opportunities for sharing best practice, resources and information.
- Time for developing ‘like’ models within a professional role.
- An opportunity to innovate, including proposing new ways of working.
- Action oriented.
What they are not:
- Peer Support Groups
- Mentorship
- Buddying
- Coaching
- Management Led
Discuss your ideas
If you think this is something you would like to get involved in, please talk to your Service Manager who will discuss your ideas and talk you through the planning approach. Service Managers and Clinical Leads will also be able to use their own service manager and clinical working group networks to help make connections across the organisation. If you want more information please contact jan.smith@compass-uk.org.

The Iaptus Super User Network (Iaptus-SUN) will meet for the first time this month.
Johanne Parker, Head of Data Insights & Intelligence, said: “The group is coordinated by the DI&I Team and made up of Iaptus Super Users from each service using Iaptus and representatives of SOM.
“The group will help ensure that Iaptus is used in a standardised way across Compass.”
From 8th August, all mental health and emotional wellbeing Services across Compass began using Iaptus to record and hold CYPF information and to access historical CYPF information that was held in EMIS
Johanne said: “We’d encourage colleagues +to contact the Help Service from within Iaptus if they have any queries about Iaptus. But the DI&I (Data Insights and Intelligence) Team here at Compass are also able to provide generic support and advice.”
If you need to contact the DI&I Team at Compass about Iaptus, please use the Iaptus inbox – iaptus2024@compass-uk.org, she said.
All MHSTs and EWBS’ which started to use Iaptus in August 2024 were asked to ensure that all cases were moved to the appropriate stage of their care pathway and all information captured offline between 27 July and 7 August 2024 was input to Iaptus no later than 30 August 2024.
Read-only EMIS
EMIS Mental Health is available in read only format until 4 November 2024. EMIS was used by the six services now using Iaptus for all their mental health and emotional wellbeing caseload information.
And Johanne said: “The DI&I Team, who led the migration work, would like to say a huge thank you to all colleagues across Operations for their help and support with the Iaptus 2024 migration project.
The migration from EMIS to IAPTUS took four months and involved working with Mayden who provide the Iaptus system to deconstruct EMIS Web Mental Health, remove all data from it and move it safely into a brand new Iaptus system. This meant DI&I working closely with Ops to ensure that all data from EMIS was coded and stored correctly in Iaptus so that CYP safeguarding could be maintained and business continuity achieved. Much of the work was done by DI&I, but Ops took all key decisions about how Iaptus will be used at Compass.
And Johanne said: “The DI&I Team, who led the migration work, would like to say a huge thank you to all colleagues across Operations for their help and support with the Iaptus 2024 migration project.
“I’d like to say a huge thank you to all members of the internal Iaptus Project Steering Group + SOM + my Team + BCN who have all helped in different ways (making key decisions, coding data, testing data, developing care pathway + ++) to bring this system in on time and according to plan.”
Johanne particularly thanked Olakunle Dare, Jan Smith, Jane Wright, Lisa Gale (ex Compass), Lauren Nixon, Arjan Bains, Vick Hanley, Zoe Davis, Ian Collyer (ex Compass), Andrew Dyer, Dan Streets, Simon Heyes, BCN.

Compass GO use art and video in a creative summer project
by Sarah Allen, Engagement & Participation Worker at Compass GO
How can creativity support our mental health and wellbeing?
That’s the question we’ve been exploring at Compass GO over the summer period, both in our ‘Peer Wellbeing Project’ schools and as a staff team.
![](https://www.compass-uk.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/pastel-hands-700x525.jpg)
From assemblies and workshops with children and young people to a whole staff training day exploring how to incorporate creative strategies into our work, North East Lincolnshire has been a hive of creativity!
It is well documented that being creative can increase positive emotions, improve our mood and reduce anxiety. It can even improve the function of our immune systems. Creativity can put us in a flow state, sometimes called being ‘in the zone’, and when we are in the zone, we become more mindful, relaxed and positive.
![](https://www.compass-uk.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/masks-700x525.jpg)
Add to that, not everybody finds it easy to use words to express emotions, thoughts or feelings and it’s clear that art could be a vital tool for supporting effective communication and emotional regulation.
With all this in mind, children and young people explored a series of ways to ‘show us how you feel’.
Some activities children enjoyed included bilateral drawing, artistic approaches to the zones of regulation, expressive mark making to communicate emotions like fear, excitement, happiness or sadness, and guided visualisations using all the senses to imagine a favourite place.
The resulting artwork has been on display throughout the summer holidays at a local café in Cleethorpes to share with a wider audience of visiting families. Everyone who participated was entered into a raffle for prizes donated by local businesses – and there were hundreds of entries!

And it was only right that Compass GO staff got involved too, spending a whole day exploring creative ways to engage with the children and young people we support.
Our SPs and EMHPs tried their hands at comic strips, mask-making, clay work, lego and drawing activities, all with a focus on experiencing the activity and then reflecting on how that felt for them and how they might use this in their future work with children and young people.
What wasn’t expected (but really should have been) was the benefit to staff in terms of their own self-care, as an opportunity to be self-reflective and in being able to connect with each other and share their thoughts, feelings and experiences. The team now have a bank of ideas and resources to inject some further creativity into their work with children and young people and have asked for more creative activities in the future for staff wellbeing.

Grateful for the help and support you’ve received from a colleague? Tell us about it…
Compassion and professionalism
I would like to pay a huge thank you for the collective response by staff at Compass Be and Compass Wakefield who provided support to CYPF and staff at Athersley North Primary in Barnsley, following a tragic incident on Sunday 21st July where 6 people were tragically killed in a car/motor bike crash. Alongside the management team our Specialist Services, MHST and Compass Wakefield were able to provide a drop-in clinic running throughout the day on Thursday 29th July for all those impacted by the deaths of family members, school friends and pupils. The network of support proved to be vital for children and adults. Compass Be and Compass Wakefield provided information and insight helping to reduce feelings of isolation and anxiety for both children and adults. Thank you all for your compassion, professionalism, and ability to make others feel heard and thought of at such a sad time. I Vick, Louise, Laura, and Evalynne are immensely proud of you all and feel incredibly lucky to work alongside you all every day.

Jan Smith, Compass Designated Safeguarding Officer
Safeguarding – Information Sharing
This month’s safeguarding feature is reflecting on information sharing in the context of safeguarding and a look back on the 7 Golden Rules. This featured in our work this week for a young person in substance misuse services when decisions regarding maintaining safety were being considered alongside deciding who to share information with, and when.
The 7 Golden Rules are described in the Department for Education non-statutory guidance ‘Information Sharing Advice for practitioners providing safeguarding services for children, young people, parents and carers May 2024’ which outlines the importance of sharing information about children, young people and their families in order to safeguard children.
The full guidance is accessible @gov.uk and focuses on the legal framework and how it supports information sharing for the purposes of safeguarding children from abuse and neglect.
The Seven golden rules for sharing information (including personal information) are:
1. All children have a right to be protected from abuse and neglect. Protecting a child from such harm takes priority over protecting their privacy, or the privacy rights of the person(s) failing to protect them.
2. When you have a safeguarding concern, wherever it is practicable and safe to do so, engage with the child and/or their carer(s), and explain who you intend to share information with, what information you will be sharing and why. You are not required to inform them, if you have reason to believe that doing so may put the child at increased risk of harm.
3. You do not need consent to share personal information about a child and/or members of their family if a child is at risk or there is a perceived risk of harm. You need a lawful basis to share information under data protection law, but when you intend to share information as part of action to safeguard a child at possible risk of harm, consent may not be an appropriate basis for sharing. It is good practice to ensure transparency about your decisions and seek to work cooperatively with a child and their carer(s) wherever possible. This means you should consider any objection the child or their carers may have to proposed information sharing, but you should consider overriding their objections if you believe sharing the information is necessary to protect the child from harm.
4. Seek advice promptly whenever you are uncertain or do not fully understand how the legal framework supports information sharing in a particular case. Do not leave a child at risk of harm because you have concerns you might be criticised for sharing information. Instead, find out who in your organisation/agency can provide advice about what information to share and with whom. In Compass this will be your manager/supervisor, the Designated Safeguarding Officer (Jan Smith), Caldicott Guardian (Sue Cody), or SIRO (Olakunle Dare).
5. When sharing information, ensure you and the person or agency/organisation that receives the information take steps to protect the identities of any individuals who might suffer harm (e.g., the child, a carer, a neighbour, or a colleague) if their details became known to an abuser or one of their associates.
6. Only share relevant and accurate information with individuals or agencies/organisations that have a role in safeguarding the child and/or providing their family with support, and only share the information they need to support the provision of their services. You must only share information that is necessary, proportionate for the intended purpose, relevant, adequate and accurate.
7. Record the reasons for your information sharing decision, irrespective of whether or not you decide to share information. When another practitioner or organisation requests information from you, and you decide not to share it, be prepared to explain why you chose not to do so. Be willing to reconsider your decision if the requestor shares new information that might cause you to regard information you hold in a new light. When recording any decision, clearly set out the rationale and be prepared to explain your reasons if you are asked.
If you have concerns about a child, young person or vulnerable adult please discuss them with your local Designated Safeguarding Lead or contact Compass Designated Safeguarding Officer jan.smith@compass-uk.org.
