Improvement Plan (QIP) Narrative for Health Care Organizations in Ontario 3/12/2017 This document is intended to provide health care organizations in Ontario with guidance as to how they can develop a Improvement Plan. While much effort and care has gone into preparing this document, this document should not be relied on as legal advice and organizations should consult with their legal, governance and other relevant advisors as appropriate in preparing their quality improvement plans. Furthermore, organizations are free to design their own public quality improvement plans using alternative formats and contents, provided that they submit a version of their quality improvement plan to Health Ontario (if required) in the format described herein. Almonte General Hospital, Fairview Manor 1 75 Spring Street. Almonte, Ontario, K0A 1A0

Overview Almonte General Hospital (AGH) is a small, rural hospital located in Almonte, Ontario, 40 kilometers west of downtown Ottawa. It serves a catchment population of over 30,000 people. The Hospital offers a wide range of acute and continuing care services including an Emergency Department. There are 21 Medical/Surgical beds, five level-one Obstetrical beds, 26 Complex Continuing Care beds and two Operating Rooms. In addition, the Hospital operates the Fairview Manor (FVM), a 112 bed Long Term Care Home located on the hospital campus, as well as the Lanark County Paramedic Service. The Hospital campus also includes the Ottawa Valley Family Health Team; the Leeds, Grenville & District Health Unit and Lanark County Mental Health. Together, these facilities provide our patients and residents with integrated, coordinated healthcare to support their seamless movement from one care setting to another. This year s Improvement Plan (QIP) will build on the success of the recently developed Mississippi River Health Alliance (MRHA) between our organization and Carleton Place & District Memorial Hospital (CPDMH). A number of initiatives are aligned with both organizations to improve the quality of the patient experience, through communication, ensuring a seamless transition from hospital to home and by ensuring internal procedures and processes are based on best practice and evidence. This year we will be implementing a Patient and Family Advisory Committee (PFAC) at AGH to allow us to enhance the delivery of health care services around the needs of our patients and their families. They will be asked to provide input on initiatives to enhance the patient experience (e.g. communication and transitions to home). The plan will work with our palliative network partners to ensure patients are connected to appropriate services in the community with a common understanding of the patient s goals of care in both FVM and the hospital. Our plan, while improving quality of care, will also include ensuring safe medication practices to meet legislative and Accreditation Canada standards from admission to discharge. FVM will be working towards reducing the number of falls with injuries, developing guidelines for when to transfer a patient to the emergency room, resident satisfaction and building on the impressive steps taken in this past year s QIP on reducing antipsychotics and restraint use. QI Achievements From the Past Year We are very pleased with all the efforts the teams at AGH and FVM have placed towards moving quality forward in all the initiatives this past year. FVM has performed exceptionally well in driving quality forward in a number of indicators. The team has reduced the rate of residents experiencing worsened pain, antipsychotic and restraint use. AGH is also extremely proud to have participated in the second year of an Assess and Restore pilot project, which originated in our partner hospital, CPDMH in partnership with the Regional Geriatric Program of Eastern Ontario. It involves a number of local and regional partners, working together to improve the lives of seniors by keeping them in their home longer through connecting them with specialized geriatric services, reducing emergency department visits and avoiding admissions to hospital. We worked with a GEM nurse to identify the frail elderly in our community, to improve their quality of life with supportive and specialized geriatric services keeping them in their home longer. The GEM nurse, Almonte General Hospital, Fairview Manor 2 75 Spring Street. Almonte, Ontario, K0A 1A0

who was shared between AGH and our partner hospital CPDMH worked together to identify seniors with restorative potential and connected them to a targeted program at the Almonte General Day Hospital. While the two year pilot project has met the objectives it had set out to achieve the program is currently on hold as we work collaboratively with our partners to ensure a financially sustainable program. We want to continue to deliver a high quality Assess and Restore program to our seniors and it is imperative time is spent planning appropriately. Health This year s plan focuses on improving the health of those patients with heart failure in our community. We will work collaboratively with the University of Ottawa Heart Institute (UOHI) to ensure the care those patients receive is aligned with the best practices included in the heart failure quality based procedure (QBP) order set. It is important to ensure there is a seamless transition from hospital to home, as well as, ensuring proper follow up with their family physician is in place. We want to leverage opportunities for patients to benefit from the best practices at the UOHI, while they are in their own community. Equity Part of our plan will focus on a communication framework in the ER and Inpatient units (Med/Surg, OBS, Complex Continuing Care). It is important to tailor this approach in order to meet the needs of patients from different cultures (eg. Indigenous), or for those who may speak different languages (eg. French or Spanish). We will work collaboratively with the PFAC and partner organizations to ensure we are ready to serve all of our patients with culturally competent staff and physicians. Integration and Continuity of Care FVM will be working collaboratively with the hospital to develop a Goals of Care Framework with common language that is clear to all healthcare personnel, residents and their families. This initiative is a continuation of last year s QIP work from the North Lanark Palliative Care Network. FVM will also be focusing on the process of when residents are transferred to the emergency room to ensure it is appropriate, timely and likely to result in an admission to the hospital. The work will focus on developing early recognition decision guidelines to assist and support the team, which will build on their critical thinking skills. One of the goals of the newly integrated relationship between AGH and CPDMH is to identify opportunities to align quality improvement initiatives and leverage the work involved. This year s QIP has met this goal in several priority indicators. The hospitals will work together to improve transitions from hospital to home for palliative patients and for those who have heart failure. Building on patient engagement, as legislated by the Excellent Care for All Act (2010), aligning initiatives focusing on receiving adequate information at discharge and/or the patient experience in the ER and Inpatient units will be developed. We will improve communication to our patients across both organizations through staff Almonte General Hospital, Fairview Manor 3 75 Spring Street. Almonte, Ontario, K0A 1A0

training on a framework, addressing common elements used for all patient interactions. Both hospitals will be reporting on the outcome from the patient experience survey questions Would you recommend this hospital (ER/Inpatient) to your friends and family? In addition, we will leverage education opportunities to ensure safe medication practices are aligned with Accreditation Canada standards. We will do this by working together on the medication reconciliation processes and ensuring they are in place for all transitions of care from admission to discharge. Access to the Right Level of Care - Addressing ALC Issues The Alternate Level of Care (ALC) rate in the hospital has not been an issue. And while reducing the ALC rate is not a focus for this year s QIP, the team continually works towards ensuring internal designation processes are aligned with the definitions from Cancer Care Ontario and ensuring appropriate destinations are achieved. Engagement of Clinicians, Leadership & Staff The development of the QIP incorporates the needs of the population based on data from provincial and regional reports, as well as, from our (AGH & FVM) internal quality indicators. The plan is reviewed and revised based on feedback from the Improvement and Risk Management Committee, the senior leadership team and the quality committee of the board. Quarterly progress reports and review of the plan are presented to the broader leadership group in order to engage key stakeholders in the processes. Staff is engaged as key people are identified to lead projects. There will be education opportunities for all staff in areas specific to certain priority indicators (e.g. inpt, ER, FVM). FVM engages staff during staff meetings and home area meetings on a monthly basis related to goals and objectives of the QIP as well as progress reports. Resident, Patient, Client Engagement FVM has a well-established and engaged resident Council. The Council meets monthly to discuss any issues that the residents bring forward as well as to share information from the organization. Details of our QIP are presented at resident council through a facilitator and any questions are then addressed in a timely fashion. The council focuses on issues that directly impact the quality of life and safety of the residents. As mentioned earlier, AGH is implementing a Patient and Family Advisory Committee (PFAC) to allow the hospital to enhance the delivery of health care services around the needs of our patients and their families. They will be involved in providing input on this year s QIP initiatives, which specifically work towards enhancing the patient experience (e.g. communication, transitions to home, post discharge phone calls for palliative patients, goals of care framework). Almonte General Hospital, Fairview Manor 4 75 Spring Street. Almonte, Ontario, K0A 1A0

Staff Safety & Workplace Violence AGH and FVM are committed to ensuring the staff is working in an environment, which focuses on their safety and supports education to prevent workplace violence. There are regular workplace safety inspections, which are reviewed at Occupational Health and Safety Committee. There are safety and security audits completed at AGH. There is a Patient Risk Incident Management System (PRIMS) in place, which captures all incidents (safety, clinical, workplace violence, etc). Quarterly reports are reviewed and discussed at the department and committee level to identify learning opportunities and process improvement requirements. The staff is encouraged to communicate safety issues to their manager, which are then discussed at staff meetings. On-going emergency drills take place to ensure the staff feel ready in the event of a real situation. There are personal safety pendants, which staff who work mostly alone wears as a safety device. Performance Based Compensation In Accordance with legislative requirements, the following positions (Senior Team) are subject to -based compensation: President and Chief Executive Officer Chief of Staff Vice President, Patient Services and Chief Nursing Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Vice President, Corporate Support Services The -based compensation plan reflects our corporate values and has been created to contain congruent, not conflicting, goals for each member of the Team, and which rewards the Team for working together towards achievement of the goals. Achievement of the goals is d on a 5 point scale, with 3 being acceptable. If the Team achieves an average score of 3 or greater across the goals, each member will be paid 100% of the at-risk compensation. If the Team achieves an average score of 2 or lower, the at risk compensation will be reduced. Almonte General Hospital, Fairview Manor 5 75 Spring Street. Almonte, Ontario, K0A 1A0
