1 Minding the Safety Gap: Nursing Staff Mix and Care Delivery 34 th Department of Nursing Annual Symposium- Nursing, Health and Health Care Jewish General Hospital May 26, 2017
2 Declaration I, Irmajean Bajnok, declare I have no conflict of interest in making this presentation at the 34 th Annual Department of Nursing Symposium.
3 Overview and Goals Background of RNAO Historical approaches to staffing and patient, provider and organizational outcomes Minding the Safety Gap 70 years of RN effectiveness: A scoping review to build a comprehensive database of evidence Other Resources: Effective Staffing and Workload Practices Best Practice Guidelines
4 RNAO is the voice of Registered Nurses, Nurse Practitioners and Nursing Students in Ontario, Canada RNAO is leading the nursing profession to influence and promote healthy public policy, and clinical excellence The Best Practice Guidelines is a signature program of RNAO Influencing Healthy Public Policy is a Hallmark of RNAO RNAO is the Professional Association of Registered Nurses, Nurse Practitioners and Nursing Students in Ontario
5 Some Staffing Issues Over Time Increasing complexity of patients Shifting more care into community.. even more complex patients in hospital Staffing Cost Quality Equation Full time part time mix Continuity of Care Giver and Continuity of Care Scope of practice complex, unstable patients to RN In tertiary and quaternary care if have less than RN staffing means that care is inadequate or patients are in the wrong facility Satisfaction and safety- one patient one nurse Teams of staff and working with groups of patients... this is not a circus, serious care is being given
6 Mind the Safety Gap slides based on presentations and webinars related to the topic by Dr. Doris Grinspun, CEO, RNAO and other elected officers and staff 6
7 Model for Health System Effectiveness 7
8 Nursing Workforce Profile RN Workforce 96,000 More complex patient, with less predictability and less stable environment creates the need for RNs (CNO, 2014) RPN Workforce 39,100 Less complex patient, with predictability and a stable environment creates the need for RPNs (CNO, 2014) NP Workforce 2,400 Builds and expands upon RN competencies (CNO, 2016) Four specialities: Primary Health Care, Paediatrics, Adult and Anaesthesia (Ont. Regulation 275/94) 8
9 What We Know 9
10 Policy Agenda Re-designing health system around the needs of patients to optimize quality and outcomes and maximize return on investment Shift of service to the community complexity of patients in hospitals complexity of patients in community/ltc, as patients are being discharged sooner Enhancing RN scope of practice to include independent RN prescribing Need to enhance public health and primary care 10
11 Issue No provincial interprofessional health human resource plan Some organizations respond to budgetary constraints by replacing RNs with less qualified providers and/or re-arranging organizational models of nursing care delivery as a short-sighted attempt to drive efficiency We ve seen this before and nursing is erroneously regarded as low hanging fruit The issue is that budgetary constraints are driving decisionmaking and not evidence, quality, safety and optimal patient outcomes Disconnect with vision to put patient s first 11
12 What We ve Heard 12
13 What We ve Done Action Alerts to Stop RN Replacement and implement the recommendations from this report Over 21,500 respondents Called for an interprofessional HHR plan at QP Day 2016; moratorium on nursing skill mix changes and stop to fragmented care models Stop RN replacement QPOR priority Active media and social media presence Mind the Safety Gap Initiative 13
14 Model for Health System Effectiveness 14
15 Mind the Safety Gap in Health System Transformation: Reclaiming the Role of the RN Robust evidence-based report that analyzed and compared nursing HR trends, population health and health system priorities Nursing HR trends found inconsistent with population health and health system priorities Conclusion is an urgent call for an interprofessional HHR plan for Ontario that would follow a transparent, evidence-based, and engaged process 15
16 Policy Priorities Identified Re-orient the health system within community-based care; Increase public transparency; Provide co-ordinated and integrated services that match population health needs; and Monitor health system performance and improve accountability. 16
17 Nursing HHR Priorities 1. Appropriate nurse skill-mix utilization 2. Organizational models of nursing care delivery that advance care continuity 3. Maximize and expand scopes of practice 4. Evidence based-practice 17
18 Shift To Health Illness Health Shifting from an illness focused health-care system to a true health system also requires system planning that captures: Robust public health services Co-ordinated primary care Social and environmental determinants of health Health equity Effective nursing skill mix and organizational models of nursing care delivery are key! 18
19 Provincial Trends Complexity is increasing RPN share of nursing workforce rose from 21.5 to 28.4%in 10 years ( ) Over-reliance on illness based care Ontario has the lowest RN to population ratio ONT: 711:100,000 CAN: 841:100,000 19
20 Evidence Skill Mix Replacing RNs with less qualified providers results in: More mortality readmissions pressure ulcers pneumonia post-operative infections upper GI bleeds cardiac arrests medication errors lengths of stay transfers of care Less.. continuity of care quality safety satisfaction (Aiken et al., 2011; de Cordova et al., 2014; Ehsani et al., 2013; Estabrooks, et al., 2005; Frith et al., 2012; Glance et al., 2012; Hugonnet et al., 2007; Kane et al., 2007; Lee et al., 2014; Needleman et al., 2011; RNAO, 2010; Tourangeau et al., 2006; Tubbs-Cooley et al., 2013; Twigg et al., 2012) 20
21 Evidence Skill Mix Nursing Skill Mix in European Hospitals: Cross-sectional study of the association with mortality, patient findings, and quality of care (2016) Hospitals that employ more nursing assistants relative to the number of professionally qualified nurses have higher mortality rates, lower patient satisfaction, and poorer quality and safety of care In European hospitals, where an average of six nurses (four of whom are professional nurses) serve 25 patients, the replacement of a professional nurse by a less qualified nursing assistant was associated with a 21% increase in mortality and; a 10% increase in percentage of professional nurses among all bedside caregivers was associated with a 10% decrease in probability of patients giving low ratings to their hospital Giving professional nurses more clinical assistants does not improve patient outcomes or reduce nurse exhaustion, job dissatisfaction, and the intention to leave clinical care The key to improving care and retaining enough professional nurses by the bed is to maintain safe levels of professional nursing staff in hospitals Reference: Aiken LH, Sloane D, Griffiths P, et al. BMJ Qual Saf Published Online First: [16 November, 2016] doi: /bmjqs
22 Changing Models of Care Total Patient Care Team Models One nurse (RN or RPN) provides total care to a small group of patients based on stability, predictability and complexity. UCP supports nurse with delegated tasks under supervision. What is Lost? Continuity Efficiency Safety Quality Patient satisfaction Multiple providers (RN, RPN and/or UCP) parcel out tasks and care for a pool of patients 22
23 Primary Nursing Primary nursing: individual patients are assigned to the most appropriate nurse (RN or RPN) who acts as their primary nurse throughout the entire care process, providing all aspects of nursing care (Grinspun, 2010). The most effective means of ensuring continuity of care and continuity of careprovider. 23
24 Evidence Models of Care Functional (or team ) organization models of nursing care delivery result in: More hospital acquired infections time spent in administrative tasks instead of patient care fragmentation of units hierarchal care teams inequitable workloads liability risk adverse events Less psychosocial care, clarity of accountability continuity of care continuity of careprovider productivity (Duffield et al., 2010; Fairbrother, Jones and Rivas, 2010; Wells, Manuel, and Cunning, 2011; Grinspun, 2010; Rogowski et al., 2013; Tiedman and Lookinland, 2004; Wolf and Greenhouse, 2007) 24
25 Recommendations 1. The MOHLTC develop a provincial evidence-based interprofessional HHR plan to align population health needs and the full and expanded scopes of practice of all regulated health professions with system priorities 2. The MOHLTC and Local Health Integration Networks (LHIN) issue a moratorium on nursing skill mix changes until a comprehensive interprofessional HHR plan is completed 3. LHINs mandate the use of organizational models of nursing care delivery that advance care continuity and avoid fragmented care 4. The MOHLTC legislate an all-rn nursing workforce in acute care effective within two years for tertiary, quaternary and cancer centres (Group A and D) and within five years for large community hospitals (Group B) RNs working together with an increased number of NPs and clinical nurse specialists practising to their full scope 25
26 Recommendations (cont.) 5. LHINs require that all first home health-care visits be completed by an RN 6. The MOHLTC, LHINs and employers eliminate all barriers, and enable NPs to practise to full scope, including: prescribing controlled substances; acting as most responsible provider (MRP) in all sectors; implementing their legislated authority to admit, treat, transfer and discharge hospital in-patients; and utilizing fully the NP-anaesthesia role inclusive of intraoperative care 7. The MOHLTC legislate minimum staffing standards in LTC homes: one attending NP per 120 residents, 20 per cent RNs, 25 per cent RPNs and 55 per cent personal support workers 8. LHINs locate the 4,100 CCAC care co-ordinators within primary care to provide health system care co-ordination and navigation, which are core functions of interprofessional primary care 26

49 Staffing and Workload Practices Best Practice Guideline (BPG) Part of Healthy Work Environment (HWE) BPG Series A Healthy Work Environment maximizes the health and wellbeing of nurses and other health care professionals, improves patient outcomes, increases organizational performance and benefits society. It is challenging to implement evidence-based practice in work environments that are not healthy. Effective workload and staffing practices are part of a Healthy Work Environment
50 What the Guideline Does This Guideline includes specific evidence based recommendations that address the following: how organizations can best engage in workload and staffing practices that are safe and effective; what knowledge, skills and supports individual nurses require in order to safely and effectively manage day to day staffing decisions for their units/teams; the kinds of organizational policies that need to be in place to support safe, effective staffing and workload practices, including processes for identifying, documenting and reporting unsafe staffing practices responsibilities of standard setting bodies and governments to measure and ensure safe and effective staffing and workload practices. future research focus
