Transforming Health Care For Seniors in the Mississauga Halton LHIN Right care, right time, right setting, right cost Narendra Shah COO MH LHIN September 29, 2010 1
Implications of Alternate Level of Care 2,700 beds occupied in 09/10 ALC is about Safety and Quality of Care Home First MH LHIN Vision Aging at Home ALC is about Patient and Family First ALC is about Care of Seniors mostly >75 years age group (70-80 %) 2
MH LHIN Aging at Home Strategic Approach Right Care, Right Place, Right Time, Right Cost LTCH Objectives LOS ALC Admission Avoidance Continuing Care Reform 300+ beds ER Objectives ER Use Treatment Time Strategic Objectives: I. Reduce ALC days and LOS in hospitals II. Reduce demand (wait list) for LTC homes III. Alternatives in Community to LTC for High Need Seniors (MAPLe 3,4,5) IV. Reduce unnecessary ER visits Objectives Demand Right Persons 27 Homes 4,100 Beds I. Invest in targeted areas to enable seniors with complex Needs (usually 75+ age) to stay safely in the community II. III. Invest in LTC homes to reduce ER/hospitalization of 4,000+ residents; and, increase LTC homes capacity to care for higher need seniors Use proven common set of assessment/eligibility tools (RAI family) across all sectors-home care, SDL, ADP, LTC and CCC to ensure right care, right setting, at the right time and right cost 3
LTC Home Home Restorative Care in the Community Where do elderly patients expect to or want to go post acute care? 4
Home First is About Patient First All acutely ill patients want to return home (community) after the post acute phase. No patient expects to go to a LTC home HOME FIRST is about best way for transition from hospital to home as soon as possible after the decision is made that the patient no longer requires inpatient care In most instances it is about how best to take care of high need seniors post hospitalization in the community/home with appropriate supports It is about changing the provider driven/knows best discharge approaches that is not often reflective of right care, right time, right place at right cost AND not inclusive of patient/family engagement First Message Focus continues to be on going Home as the destinationmobilize necessary community supports to enable safe care
Home First From a Quality Paradigm Hospitalization can be hazardous for older adults (Suesada et.al., 2007; Gillick et. al., 1982; Brown et. al., 2004 Hospitalization of elderly often leads to decreased functional mobility, decreased ventilation, delirium, accelerated bone loss and incontinence (Creditor, 1993) Staying in a hospital longer than medically necessary can be detrimental to a patient s health for a number of reasons: Risk of hospital acquired infections For seniors, a decline in physical and mental abilities due to lack of activity Much needed acute beds for patients waiting to be admitted Home provides the best environment to experience a significant life transition, such as a move to a LTC home Second Message Hospitals, MH CCAC and all HSPs must see ALC as a top priority both from a quality and sustainability perspective 6 Narendra Shah Oct 1, 2010
Balancing Quality and Risk What is more risky in terms of poor quality of care - continued stay in hospital as an ALC or discharge to an appropriate community/home setting other than LTC home? 7
Right Investments in Community Programs for High Need Seniors to Enable Home first Shift away from a facility-based health care system by investing in community-based care: Reduce ALC days and LOS in hospitals Reduce wait list for LTC homes Facilitate and maximize post-acute care services through an emphasis on alternate models - transitioning to lower or more appropriate levels of care Increase capacity to serve high need seniors (MAPLe 4,5 and 3 s) for appropriate home and community based services to extended hours including evenings, weekends and 24/7 where appropriate and feasible MH CCAC services refocused to support high need seniors with enhanced home care, including use of ED P4P funds towards this group Third Message Invest in the right community programs to care for high need seniors & re-focus CCAC and community support services to serve high need seniors. Performance review of investments and realign as necessary 8
