8 The population s socio-demographic composition reinforces the diversity of the communities within the South West LHIN The senior cohort over 65 years of age is most prevalent in the central and north regions of the LHIN, where stakeholders have revealed a gap in services to address the needs of this population group. As a whole, the LHIN has a higher percentage of seniors. The southern areas of the LHIN attract diverse, multicultural residents, which may influence the types of health care services offered. Although the unemployment is in line or below the provincial average, the economic downturn may increase this average and negatively impact population health. In February 2009, Statistics Canada reported an increase in unemployment for Ontario to 7.9%. Another key determinant of health, South West LHIN residents are noted to have a lower average household income compared to provincial average.

10 Overview of Service Utilization Acute Care 9

11 South West LHIN Service Capture Rates by Separations and Hospital 10 The map to the left illustrates that there are 4 major referral centres within the South West LHIN: GBHS-Owen Sound for the north region Stratford General Hospital for the central region London Health Sciences Centre St. Joseph s Health Centre The map illustrates that GBHS-Owen Sound appears to capture major market share just north of Wingham and District Hospital. However GBHS-Owen Sound s inpatient service capture rates decline with the presence of the other community sites. It is also possible that transportation is more of a challenge in the north region. Stratford General Hospital captures significant market share in the central region with the service patterns extending north. It is difficult to delineate the service capture of LHSC and SJHC, however, their service capture rate declines going further south, likely due to the availability of services from St. Thomas-Elgin Hospital. Note: further detailed views of these maps for each sub-region are provided in the following pages.

12 Acute Care Services: LHIN-wide Service utilization - Total Separations by Region LHIN-wide Service Utilization* Average LOS Average ELOS Average RIW North Central South Source: Intellihealth FY Source: Intellihealth FY * Average LOS & ELOS includes ALC days 11 There was a total of 94,118 separations for the South West LHIN. Hospital service utilization appears to be consistent with one might expect given the current population distribution in the LHIN. The LOS (length of stay) and RIW (resource intensity weighting) figures may reflect characteristics, such as available resources, acuity or workload. Due to the large tertiary care centres in the south, the higher average LOS and RIW is expected. All regions are reporting a higher average LOS relative to average estimated LOS (ELOS)

13 Service Capture Rates by Separations and Hospital North Region The map to the left illustrates the inpatient service utilization of Bruce and Grey county hospitals. GBHS-Owen Sound appears to have the greatest market share in this region capturing 50% of total separations, which is likely due to the fact that this is the regional referral centre for Grey and Bruce Counties In the southern area of this region, SBGH-Walkerton and Hanover and District Hospital have similar service capture patterns, with the Hanover site capturing a slightly bigger market share within a smaller radius. Note: Hospitals with less than 40% market share are not shown on the map. Source: Intellihealth FY

Stratford General Hospital s service capture reach extends along a wide geographic area, including beyond the LHIN borders. The site accounted for 54% of total admissions within this region. Stratford s capture rates flatten out at the top of its pattern, as a result of the presence of Listowel Memorial and Alexandra Marine and General hospitals.

17 Service Capture Rates by Separations and Hospital South Region Hospitals located in the south region managed the largest proportion of inpatient separations in the South West LHIN. As depicted in the contour map, London Health Sciences, St. Joseph s Health Centre and St. Thomas-Elgin have broad catchment areas. The relative geographic breadth of the market share that is being captured London based hospitals is consistent with their role as a tertiary care provider.

Non-specialists include Family Medicine physicians and Specialists comprise the remaining categories. There is a reduced availability of specialists in the north and central regions. Only 11% and 20% of physicians are registered in counties in the north and central regions, respectively. However, 17% and 15% of the South West LHIN population resides in the north and central regions, respectively. All regions had a equivalent distribution of Family Medicine physicians based on the population served in each region. Central and north had a similar ratio of specialists to 1000 population. The more concentrated distribution of specialists in the South is aligned to the academic health centres, LHSC and SJHC.

It appears that based on the population distribution that specialists are proportionately distributed, with the exception of surgery. Other specialty total includes anaesthesiology, community medicine, critical care medicine, diagnostic radiology, emergency medicine, medical genetics, nuclear medicine, physical medicine & rehab, psychiatry and radiation oncology. For psychiatry, the south had a ratio between per 1000 population. In contrast, the north had the lowest proportion of psychiatrists at Central was only marginally better with psychiatrists to 1000 population.

24 The percentage of registered professionals in the South West LHIN is proportional to the population Demographic shift with both patient and clinician populations will exacerbate the HHR shortage crisis Increasing need for interdiscipilinary teams to play the primary care role within the health system Practitioners will need to work to their full scope of practice, which will impact legislation and organizational policies/practices Given that 7% of the population of Ontario resides in the South West LHIN, there appears to be a proportionate distribution of registered professionals, with the only exception being Nurse Practitioners.

LTC long stay utilization has declined by 0.7% from 99.3% in 2008 to 98.6% in The South West LHIN provides 9% of provincial long stay beds and its waitlist is 8% of the provincial wait list. The turnover of LTC beds is higher than the Ontario average. Based on CCAC data, the average time spent on the waitlist was 146 days in 2007/08. 28

30 Overview of Service Utilization Community & In-Home Services 29

Of the 2.2% who indicated that they had a self-perceived unmet home care needs, 1.6% indicated that they required personal care support. A number of key community programs funded through the South West LHIN drive the services applicable to this program: Several organizations provided assistance to individuals within their home environment, including a high proportion of services facilitated by South West CCAC to clients across the LHIN overall Homemaking services appear proportionate to population in the respective regions. Although the data reveals an absence of in-home personal support by LHIN TPA-funded organizations in the central region, Cheshire does provide this service to residents in the central region. NOTE: South West CCAC services were provided throughout the LHIN. Client origin by region and service was not available. This CCAC data includes all contracted providers (private, lhinfunded, etc) Certain organizations that are contracted through CCAC may have also submitted a CAPs form which may result in duplication. 30

This service category reveals a lower proportion of programs were delivered in the north relative to the population ratios in the other regions, which may require further analysis due to growth projected with older cohorts residing in the north. Outreach organizations appear to provide a higher concentration of assisted living programs in the central and south regions of the LHIN. Recently, there have been an increase in Day Services and Assisted Living through the Aging at Home strategy and this is not captured in the 2007/08 data. Despite the high volume of assistance provided through LHIN TPA-funded groups, transportation challenges were raised during consultations across the LHIN, especially by rural service providers. Community representatives stated a proportion of clients would cancel diagnostic and specialist appointments if unable to acquire assistance in travelling long distances. Source:: FY from CAP 09-11

35 Non-LHIN Funded Primary Health Care Services 34

36 A significant portion of primary health services are provided by Public Health Units Community Health Centres and Family Health Teams Included is a compilation of non-lhin funded health organizations providing public health and primary health care services Public Health Units Community Health Centres Family Health Teams North 1 0 and 1 under development 4 Central South 4 2 plus 2 under development 3 Total 7 2 plus 3 under development 16 These organizations, for many individuals, are the first point of access to the health system and provide an array of educational and early intervention services. Based on these critical roles, it will be important to consider their impact when evaluating the future models of care for all health programs within the South West LHIN. For example, the following programs are directly impacted by the delivery of these services: Women s Health these organizations provide prenatal and sexual health screening services that often serve as the stepping stone into education and early intervention Chronic Disease Prevention & Management these organizations provide health education and promotion services which can help reduce the incidence of chronic illnesses Paediatrics these organizations provide healthy baby and primary health care services which can help with early identification of any health issues Mental health & addictions these organizations often are a preliminary contact to diagnosing a mental health illness and can help refer them to the appropriate care in a timely fashion There are three developing CHCs that will augment the service capacity in the South West LHIN in Elgin, Oxford, and South East Grey 35
