31 Ariella Lang RN, PhD Nurse Researcher VON Canada May 27, 2015

32 Background Service Gap for Bereavement Care VON Canada: National Home & Community Care Organization Program of Research

33 Research evidence informs VON s home care practice and in turn, VON s practice informs research.

34 VON staff; front-line, managers, directors, and VPs are team members on each and every project! Strong and strategic links with decision- and policymakers, both as co-investigator and collaborators from the inception of the projects Partnering stakeholders include: citizen engagement groups, provincial ministries, regional health authorities, national healthcare stakeholders (i.e., Canadian Patient Safety Institute, Accreditation Canada, Conference Board of Canada)

35 Current bereavement care focuses on those who present with complications rather than on primary prevention and health promotion interventions. Addressing the needs of the bereaved in an upstream, preventative, and health promoting manner calls for a shift in the way care providers interact with individuals and families surrounding the death of their loved one.

36 Nurses and other healthcare providers capturing and creating opportunities to be with and support individuals / families in their experiences of grief and mourning regardless of the type of loss or where the death occurs.

37 PURPOSE: Create a comprehensive and up to date representation of primary bereavement care. Create opportunities for nurses and other care providers to reflect on, challenge, and evaluate their practices with the bereaved surrounding loss. Provide a springboard for organizations to build, expand, and focus their competence in supporting primary bereavement care with families.

39 Development of evidence-informed guideline (Canadian Nurses Foundation ) Stakeholder review (GRISSIQ ) Knowledge-to-Action Grant (CIHR ) Joanna Briggs Institute systematic review to update guideline (RRISIQ ) CIHR March 2015 Realist Evaluation (submitted) 39

40 Purpose: To increase organizational and practitioner uptake and application of an evidence-informed primary bereavement care guideline through a researcher knowledge - user partnership.

41 Research Questions 1) What is the process of translating evidenceinformed recommendations from the guideline into action? 2) How does a researcher-knowledge-user partnership influence the translation of the guideline? 3) What are the impacts at multiple levels of the system of this knowledge-to-action approach?

42 Method Integration of an organizational change initiative and research study Organizational change supported by several multi-stakeholder meetings as well as two large collaborative forums Multiple data sources observations document reviews series of individual interviews focus groups

45 Context High MUHC rates of C-Difficile and VRE Accreditation results & feedback: Poor compliance with hand hygiene policies Inappropriate glove use Increased risk for patients and increased costs - C. Difficile : $10,000 /case - Length of Stay prolongation = 10 days - 30 day mortality = 15 % - VRE Blood Stream Infection : $60,000 / case $150K grant to interprofessional team (Nsg, Inf. C & Housekeeping)

46 CSI Objectives Objective # 1 Objective # 2 Objective # 3 Reduce C-Difficile & VRE rates by 50% on six high risk units, within 12 months. Build organizational capacity in quality improvement & prevention of infections. Improve inter-departmental teamwork & engage patients in quality improvement activities. Objective # 4 Further validate the TCAB spread & sustainability strategies.

68 What is KT/Implementation? KT/Implementation is about: Making users aware of knowledge and facilitating their use of it to improve health and health care systems Implementing change into practice KT/Implementation research (KT Science) is about: Studying the determinants and outcomes of knowledge use and effective methods of promoting the uptake of knowledge

69 In the context of CBPHC Range of conditions presented Uncertainty associated with diverse screening and treatment options High incidence of collaboration among diverse professionals from the health and social care sectors

70 The Grey Zone of Decision Making 11% 3% 7% Beneficial Likely to be ineffective 50% 5% Trade offs Unlikely to be beneficial Likely to be beneficial 24% Unknown effectiveness About 3000 treatments

71 hared Decision Making (SDM) uilds on relationships ecognizes that a decision is required ighlights best evidence about risks and enefits of each option (including status quo) s explicit about the probabilistic nature of vidence akes into account the patient s values and references (patient specific) ostered by decision aids and training

72 SDM = KT intervention

73 Inform Decision Aids = KT tools Provide facts: Condition, options, benefits, harms Communicate probabilities Clarify values Patient experience Ask which benefits/harms matters most Facilitate communication Support a process Guide in steps in deliberation/communication Worksheets, list of questions
