Cadarnhaodd y Gweinidog fod rhan o’r £10m ychwanegol oddi wrth Lywodraeth Cymru i leihau pwysau’r gaeaf yn y GIG yn cael ei defnyddio i sicrhau bod gwasanaethau gofal cartref ar gael er mwyn i gleifion y mae arnynt angen cymorth parhaus yn y gymuned allu gadael yr ysbyty yn gynt. Bydd yr arian hefyd yn helpu pobl i aros yn eu cartrefi eu hunain, gan osgoi gorfod mynd i’r ysbyty yn ddiangen, lle bo modd. 

Mae’r arian hwn yn ychwanegol at y £60m y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei fuddsoddi yn y Gronfa Gofal Integredig bob blwyddyn, sy’n helpu i leihau pwysau ar wasanaethau GIG a gofal cymdeithasol hanfodol. Mae’r gronfa yn helpu i sbarduno gweithio integredig rhwng iechyd, gofal cymdeithasol, tai a’r trydydd sector at ystod o ddibenion ataliol, gan gynnwys helpu pobl hŷn i barhau i fyw’n annibynnol.

Mae buddsoddiad wedi ei wneud mewn nifer o feysydd, sy’n cynnwys:

* Ariannu gwasanaethau ailalluogi ychwanegol fel bod modd cytuno ar becynnau gofal a chymorth unigol i gleifion, a’u sefydlu, er mwyn eu hatal rhag gorfod mynd i’r ysbyty a’u cefnogi wrth iddynt gael eu rhyddhau o’r ysbyty
* Cynyddu’r gallu o fewn Timau Gwaith Cymdeithasol Oedolion awdurdodau lleol i sicrhau bod unigolion yn symud yn rhwyddach drwy’r ysbyty ac yn gallu dychwelyd adref
* Ymestyn y cymorth sydd ar gael gan Ofal a Thrwsio am addasiadau bach i bobl hŷn er mwyn iddynt allu gadael yr ysbyty yn amserol
* Darparu gwasanaethau adsefydlu dwys er mwyn helpu pobl i adael yr ysbysty yn gynt a’u helpu i fod yn llai dibynnol
* Cynyddu gwasanaethau gofal cartref brys byrdymor yng nghartrefi pobl eu hunain 24 awr y dydd, saith diwrnod yr wythnos.

Mae’r ystadegau diweddaraf yn dangos bod nifer yr achosion o oedi wrth drosglwyddo gofal yng Nghymru ar eu hisaf am y tro cyntaf ers 12 mlynedd. Dywedodd Huw Irranca\-Davies: 


> “Yng Nghymru, rydyn ni’n buddsoddi’n sylweddol yn ein gwasanaeth iechyd a’n gwasanaeth gofal cymdeithasol, gan nad yw’r naill wasanaeth yn gallu gweithio heb y llall.
> 
> “Mae’r arian ychwanegol oddi wrthon ni yn cael ei ddefnyddio i sicrhau bod cleifion yn symud drwy’r system yn rhwyddach, ac i drin a gofalu am y nifer gynyddol o bobl – yn enwedig y bobl hŷn fregus – y mae arnyn nhw angen gwasanaethau iechyd a gofal ar yr adeg hon o’r flwyddyn.
> 
> “Dros yr ychydig wythnosau diwethaf, dw i wedi cael y fraint o ymweld ag ystod o leoliadau iechyd a gofal cymdeithasol i weld y gweithio a’r cydweithio integredig rhagorol rhwng gwasanaethau. Mae’r gwaith hanfodol hwn yn helpu pobl i barhau i fyw’n annibynnol ac i aros gartref. Mae hefyd yn eu helpu i osgoi gorfod mynd i’r ysbyty neu gartref gofal preswyl yn ddiangen, ac mae’n lleihau cymaint â phosibl yr oedi pan fydd yn bryd i rywun adael gofal.
> 
> “Dyma’r union fath o gydweithio rydyn ni am weld mwy ohono, ac a fydd yn union sail i’n gwasanaethau iechyd a gofal cymdeithasol yn y blynyddoedd a’r degawdau sydd i ddod.”

The Minister confirmed part of the additional £10m the Welsh Government has made available to relieve winter pressures in the NHS is being used to ensure home care services are in place to enable patients who need ongoing support in the community to leave hospital earlier.  The funding will also support people to remain in their own homes, avoiding unnecessary hospital admissions, wherever possible. 


This funding is in addition to the £60m the Welsh Government is investing in the Integrated Care Fund each year, which is helping to reduce pressures on vital NHS and social care services. The fund is helping to drive integrated working between health, social care, housing and the third sector for a range of preventative purposes, including supporting older people to maintain their independence.


Investment has been made in a number of areas, which include:


 


* Commissioning additional nursing home beds or intermediate care beds to provide an alternative to acute hospital care for complex assessments
* Providing additional discharge liaison nurse \& social worker hours to support complex discharge planning
* Funding additional reablement services so individual care and support packages for patients can be agreed and established to avoid admission and support discharge from hospital
* Increasing the capacity within local authorities’ Adult Social Work Teams to meet improved flow through the hospital setting and enable individuals to return to their home environment
* Extending the support available from Care \& Repair for small adaptation services for older people to facilitate timely discharge from hospital
* Providing intensive rehabilitation services to facilitate earlier and less dependent discharge
* Increasing short term urgent domiciliary care services in people’s own homes 24 hours a day, seven days a week.


The most recent statistics for delayed transfers of care in Wales show they are at a 12 year low. Huw Irranca\-Davies said:



> “In Wales, we are investing significantly in both our health and social care services, because one service cannot work without the other. 
> 
> 
> “The additional funding we have made available is being used to improve the flow of patients through the system, and treat and care for the increasing number of people – especially the frail elderly – who need health and care services at this time of year.
> 
> 
> “Over the past few weeks, I’ve had the privilege of visiting a range of health and social care settings to see the excellent integrated working and collaboration between services. This vital work is helping to support people to maintain their independence and remain at home, enabling them to lead their own independent lives. It also helps avoid unnecessary admissions to hospital or residential care, and minimising delays when someone is due to be discharged from care.
