Assess & Restore Background Program

o Target frail seniors who have experienced a recent functional loss that puts them at high risk for long-stay LTC home placement.

o Aim to enhance timely and appropriate access to programs, increase capacity across all elements of an A&R approach to care and improve quality of care.

Ministry Investmento Base Funding

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 5

Assess & Restore Background Project Requirements

o Eligible projects were required to:• Fit within one of the five elements of an A&R approach to care, which

include: screening, assessment, navigation and placement, intervention and transitions home; and

• Demonstrate improved A&R outcomes across the province.

o A small number of shared inter-LHIN projects with provincial scalability have been encouraged, and LHINs are encouraged to release portions of their funding they cannot use to other LHINs

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 6

2017/18 A&R FocusMore than 33,000 older adults received care across

28 A&R initiativesObjectives Across A&R Initiatives:1) Enhance and improve access to restorative care services for older adults.2) Move care for older adults from facility-based to community-based, wherever possible, by implementing proactive models of risk screening and navigation.3) Improve outcomes for older adults by implementing best practice care, including comprehensive geriatric assessment and geriatric interprofessionalrehabilitative care. 4) An additional focus noted in 2017/18 was the development of a regional strategy to address the operationalization and sustainability of the initiatives.

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 7

2017-18 A&R Initiatives: Key Messages A cross-sectoral integrated approach to restorative care

improves outcomes for community-dwelling older adults

Proactive access to comprehensive assessment and restorative interventions improves outcomes and reduces avoidable admissions

Geriatric education and senior friendly care are essential components of successful A&R implementation

A planned regional strategy with an aligned vision is required to support a population health approach for frail older adults

What we set out to do…o To build on positive outcomes realized by Legacy Central

West CCAC Home Independence Programs (HIP) offered in 2015/16 and 2016/17 by:

• Streamlining program processes and resources• Establish a sustainable approach to A & R in Central West LHIN • Ensure program made available to patients who would most

benefit • Include more robust outcome measures

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 19

Learnings from past HIP experience

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 20

Opportunity to improve centralized screening and oversight resulted in inappropriate patients admitted to program

Availability of PSW as part of service package became an access issue for patients who had no other available option for PSW services which also impacted on program outcomes

Education needs for providers to reinforce and support a restorative approach in home care delivery

Home Independence Program

An 8-week home-based restorative care program designed using a best practice approach to improve seniors’ independence and prevent functional decline.

Patient program is led by an Occupational Therapist (OT) with activities assigned to PSW

Physiotherapy services are also available and the treatment was completed by personal support workers under the supervision of the physiotherapists.

Patients’ motivation is a significant element of the program and the OT’s worked collaboratively with patients to establish patient centered goals.

Clinical Practice Leader, Scarborough Health NetworkAngie Saini

Director of Care, Carefirst Seniors and Community Services Association

A Soft Landing: The Patient Journey from Hospital to Community Care

Scarborough Health Network (SHN) and Carefirst Seniors and Community Services Association’s Transitional Care Centre (TCC) established a partnership to provide patients and caregivers seamless transitions across the health care continuum from acute care (SHN) to a facility-based Assess and Restore intervention (TCC) then back into the community.

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 34

A Soft Landing: The Patient Journey from Hospital to Community Care

Program Objectives:o Extend beyond strengthening, reconditioning and returning to previous

level of functioningo Provides participants and caregivers with access to services to improve

or maintain their abilities to enable them to continue to live independently in the community including home care, exercise and falls prevention classes, and chronic disease management programs.

o Collaborates with primary care to manage clients and ensure appropriate follow-up post-discharge.

o This restorative program is an innovative model that provides wrap around care that continues once the participants have been discharged home from TCC

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 35

A Soft Landing: The Patient Journey from Hospital to Community Care

The partnership between SHN and Carefirst provides seniors who require reconditioning after their acute medical illness access to physiotherapy, nursing, personal support, social work and community support services.

This A& R Intervention has two key components: 1) Virtual Ward Program (VW): Assist the patient in meeting VW’s five milestones:

o follow-up with primary care;o medication reconciliation;o tests/specialist appointments;o health education; and o linkage to appropriate community services

2) Enhanced Recovery Program: Individual treatment for those experiencing significant cognitive/physical/functional impairment; health teaching i.e., falls prevention, energy conservation; and functional training i.e. gait, transfer and home safety equipment training

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 36

A Soft Landing: The Patient Journey fromHospital to Community Care

o SHN, Carefirst, and the Central East LHIN ensures individuals are supported in a timely, coordinated and seamless manner as they move from SRH to Carefirst TCC and then back into the community with the necessary supports in place to enable them to continue to live in their homes for as long as possible.

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 37

A Soft Landing: The Patient Journey from Hospital to Community Care

o Participant/caregiver goals are identified prior to discharge by the inter-professional hospital team. Once the participant transitions to TCC, the care team then leverages all available resources in order to assist participants in achieving their goals and reintegrating them back into the community, including:

• Meals on Wheels, • LHIN’s Telehomecare program for participants with CHF or COPD• Carefirst’s COPD Community Rehabilitation program, • Geriatric Assessment and Intervention Network or GAIN team, • Diabetes Education Program• Community exercise and falls prevention classes• Caregiver support groups, etc.

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 38

Improving Health Care Delivery for Older Adults

The collaboration between SHN and Carefirst was developed to ensure that seniors who are at high risk for not being able to return home, receive the reconditioning to enable them to continue to live in the community independently. This restorative program is an innovative model that allows:• A safe, comfortable environment for seniors to gain their strength,

mobility, and confidence • Access to an interdisciplinary team that can manage their psychosocial

and physiological needs after an acute hospitalization which can be overwhelming for both seniors and their caregivers

• For a more comprehensive look at the participants’ and caregivers’ needs and subsequent access to all community resources including LHIN services to prevent them from returning to hospital

• Additional benefit of much needed respite for caregivers

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 39

Developing Integrative Models of Care

The collaboration between SHN and Carefirst transcends the boundaries between acute care and community care however it is not without its challenges including the following:• Access to information: difficult to gather medical and social history

particularly for those admitted from ER. Also for this reason, difficult to assess whether they are appropriate for the program. To resolve this, Carefirst is provided with access to appropriate hospital IT platforms and is in the midst of trying to secure access to ConnectingOntario

• Difficult to coordinate admissions to TCC on evenings and weekends • Initially client may have shown potential for rehabilitation but plateaued,

making discharges back into the community more difficult• Participants who have high social needs, making discharge planning more

complex. do not have a firm discharge destination or who’s discharge destination changes once on TCC

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 40

Developing Integrative Models of Care

The partnership does have components that work well: • Face to face meetings with potential participants and caregivers provides

warm transfer from hospital to TCC• Social workers from both organizations collaborate with

participants/caregivers to ensure a smooth transition and provide clear expectations

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 41

Developing Integrative Models of Care

Lessons Learned: • Target population was reevaluated as the program proved inappropriate

for high need participants • Referral form was modified to reduce duplication in the collection of

information from the client/caregiver. SHN provides basic information to provide general picture, Carefirst does thorough face to face assessment in hospital

• Lab work services was initially a barrier but has since become incorporated into pathway

• Participants are at a higher risk of readmissions, but readmission rate remained the same as those discharged from hospital. Mitigation: NP hired at Carefirst to provide more robust clinical oversight

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 42

Developing Integrative Models of Care

Opportunities for spread: The collaboration and integration of acute care and community care is essential in ensuring that patients are discharged from hospitals in a safe, effective manner that optimizes their well-being, reduces caregiver burden, reduces length of stay and prevents readmissions.

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 43

Key LearningsCapacity planning: o SHN’s goal has been to maintain a constant occupancy of 3 beds.

Carefirst is able to provide additional beds if it has the capacity to do so. This has not yet been an issue. As we expand to other SHN sites, it is something to consider

System gapso There is limited access/funding for this type of transitional care

setting in the Central East LHIN. Funding for these beds comes from the operational budget of SHN.

o There are other ‘transitional care’ settings but most do not have access to as comprehensive a basket of restorative and community support services as that offered at Carefirst

Next steps:o Increase hospital funding for such programs as part of total joint or

chronic disease pathway as a means to improve patient/caregiver experience, reduce length of stay, reduce readmission rate, and improve population health

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 44

Opportunities to spread an A&R approach to care

Key Success Factors:• Integration of the acute care sector with community-based inpatient

rehabilitation and community support services to provide restorative then supportive care to sustain seniors/caregivers once they return home

• Focus on prevention: Leverage chronic disease management programs to provide patients and

caregivers the resources/education/tools they require to better manage their health care conditions

Connect patients and caregivers with other community programs that optimize their physical/emotional/cognitive well-being like exercise and falls prevention classes, Adult Day Program, etc.

Ensure follow-up with primary care and provide clinical oversight in the interim

• Collaboration across sectors: primary care, acute care, community care including the LHIN share the same goals –enable patients/caregivers to thrive in the community while contributing to the sustainability of the health care system

Improving Health Care Delivery for Older Adults

Improved Health Care Deliveryo Since the Clinical Pathway Process begun patients have received the benefit

of rapid access to Geriatric Consultation and resultant in-patient rehab post the appointment or on-going follow-up with the geriatrician as well as medical care specifically designed for the aging population

o Since the Pathway was established mid September 2017 until mid September 2018 Fifty Six (56) patients were enrolled in the process there by either preventing admission to hospital or promoting discharge from an overflow bed in the ED

o Emergency Department Physicians were very pleased with the process and engaged with Rapid Geriatric Consultation as an alternative to hospital admission

o Many concerning issues were identified through the process and therefore community service implemented to meet the clients ongoing needs to assist this group of Seniors to remain at Home

o TBRHSC, SJCG and the NW LHIN Home Care Division worked as a Collaborative Team in the enhancement of care for the identified “At Risk Seniors”

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 51

Developing Integrative Models of Care

Collaboration between TBRHSC, SJCG and NW LHINo One of the biggest challenges in working together on the

Pathway was communication and education to the multiple health care providers who were involved in the process

o Another process problem was that it was somewhat person dependant – either Geriatric Care Coordinator, Geriatrician or RR RN availability

o Most appointments were scheduled within a week time frameo Patients and families were very pleased with the processo Emergency department staff and doctors were very pleased

with the addition and assistance from the Pathway Team

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 52

Key Learningso Capacity and ability to identify then serve the growing number of

Seniors in our community is key. TBRHSC has a very busy ED and many of the patients who present are over 65 years

o Gaps identified : 24 X 7 coverage of Team members, availability of geriatricians to meet the demand, availability of community resources to meet the needs of our aging population

o Ability of the system to adapt to the varying numbers of referrals –example: some weeks there were multiple referrals and other weeks there were zero

o In the coming months TBRHSC and SJCG will enhance the Pathway work through the addition of an additional GCC for extended hours and weekends as well as in home support through a OT and/or PT home visit

www.rehabcarealliance.ca 53

Opportunities to spread an A&R approach to care

o Clinical tools and resourceso The GCC and the RR RN both used and forwarded assessments to

the Geriatrician including the CAM, Depression Screen, Cognition Screening, Frailty and PPS as well as Medication Reconciliation and Comprehensive Clinical Assessments

o A consistent approach was key to the team members o Information and collaboration occurred between TBRHSC, SJCG, NW

LHIN and Family Care Providers in a consistent approach to patient care

o Primary Care Providers were included in the process especially surrounding medication changes/additions that occurred either at the hospital or the Geri Clinic
