Definition of Social and Material Deprivation Index
• The Social Deprivation Index (SDI) is a measure of
inequality within a defined population, and is
calculated by combining a number of measures
22
• These include income levels, unemployment rates,
educational levels, number of immigrants, and
knowledge of French and English
23
Definition of Social and Material Deprivation Index
• The SDI is an important measure, as research has
demonstrated that persons living in areas with high
levels of social deprivation use healthcare services at a
higher rate than those living in areas of low social
deprivation

Questions for Consideration
• What key conclusions are you drawing from the data?
• What trends are you perceiving?
• What worries you/requires immediate action?
• Is any data missing in order for you to set a strategic
direction?
28
IHSP 4 Aims (Next 1-3 Years)
• Improved patient flow across health care system
• More patient centered health care system
• Better management of care transition points
• Better management of patient behaviors
• Advance care paths based on best practices and care standardization
• More appropriate use of acute health care services
• Reduced wait times for specific health care services
• More of a focus on health promotion and illness prevention
• More support for people at home
• Increased patient/family satisfaction with the health care system
• Reduced prevalence rates for specific diseases in the ESC region
• More integrated approach to Health System IT development & deployment
29
Lambton County Community Engagement –
124 respondents
Over the next 3 to 5 years the health system needs to improve the most:
• Better access to health care services (availability, adequate supply and
addressing barriers to service)
• Better coordinated health care services
• More focus on health promotion and illness prevention
• More support for people at home
• More cost effective approaches to health care
30
Lambton County Community Engagement –
124 respondents
If you could change one thing in order to improve local health care services:
• Wait times and faster access (wait times in ED, family doctor, specialist and for
diagnostic tests)
• Walk In Clinics – especially after hours
• Better communication and coordination between hospital and community
• System navigation for patients accessing health care service
• Need for electronic medical records across health care continuum
31
Objective Setting
Leafs 2015-2016 32
IHSP 4 Objectives (Next 1-3 Years)
• 30 day readmission rate
• 30 day readmission rates for selected CMGs (COPD, CHF, Diabetes, Stroke, other?)
• Alternate Level of Care (ALC) rate
• Conservable days /1000
• ED visits /1000 (by Canadian Triage & Acuity Scale (CTAS))
• Repeat unplanned ED visits within 30 days for mental health
• Repeat unplanned ED visits within 30 days for substance use
• Potential years of life lost, mortality and life expectancy
(rates by age group) one table
• Prevalence rates for conditions for which ESC is significantly higher
• Acute care hospital utilization rate
33
Proposed Strategic Pillars as the Basis of Actions
• Chronic disease prevention and management/technology
• Addictions and mental health
• Hospice palliative care
• Restorative / rehabilitation care
• Performance targets / monitoring and performance
improvement / value for money: (ED and ALC)
• Special populations:
− Orthopedics
− Indigenous health care
− French language services
34
Questions for Consideration - Strategic Pillars
• Is the above list of strategic pillars a good
representation in order to establish health care system
focus and direction?
• Is there a key strategic pillar missing?
• In your view what is the most important area to start
with in the next year to get improvement results?
35
Focus of Attention….
• Clinical value compass measures (see next slide)
• Readmissions / revisits
0-7 days (hospital processes)
8-21 days (community services processes)
22+ days (self-management processes)
36
High Level Tactics
Improve (clinical value compass model)…
• Capacity
• Capability
− (including multidisciplinary approaches)
• Competencies
− (knowledge, skills, abilities and attitudes)
• Coordination and transitions
37
Evaluative Attributes
Does the initiative enhance…
• Accessibility
• Effectiveness
• Efficiency
• Safety
• Coordination / integration
• Equity
• Patient experience
• Sustainability / appropriately resourced 38
IHSP4 Improvement Targets - Community
• For COPD, CHF, Stroke and Diabetes
− focus on hospital discharge rates, length of stay and 30 day readmissions
• For Addictions and Mental Health
− focus on ED visits and repeat visits
• For Hospice Palliative Care
− focus on ED visits, wait time to palliative care, access to bereavement services
• For Rehabilitation
− focus on reduced acute care length of stay and reduced unplanned ED visits
• For special populations
− focus on increasing access to primary care, cultural sensitivity training, reduced
ED visits and hospital admissions

Questions for Consideration - Improvement Targets:
1) Are the performance measures / targets identified for the
community, acute care, ALC, and ED reasonable? Would
you change anything?
2) Are the proposed bed types and future bedded capacity
projections reasonable? Would you change anything?
3) Are there any key improvement targets missing that you
would like to add to the list?
42
IHSP4 Other Suggestions for Consideration

43
IHSP 4 Next Steps
• Ensure that the IHSP 4 is aligned with Ministry of Health and
Long-Term Care priorities and ESC LHIN Board priorities
• Advance a community / stakeholder engagement plan (validate
strategies / tactics and confirm performance targets)
• Refine strategies and targets based on community engagement
input
• Receive and review the PAN LHIN environmental scan (socio-
demographic and utilization information)
• Prepare final draft copy of the IHSP 4 for ESC LHIN Board review
and approval 44
