    23. Introduction The Ontario Behavioural Support System Project aims to improve the lives of older adults with complex and responsive behaviours associated with cognitive impairments due to complex mental health, addictions, dementia, or other neurological conditions and their caregivers. These adults may be living in long-term care homes or in independent living settings or receiving care in acute care environments. The first phase of the project (Jan-Oct 2010) is complete and a report has been prepared Once finalized, the report will be available on the website www.bssproject.ca The presentation today will outline key elements of the report including a brief overview of the project, proposed system model and contemplated next steps.

    24. BSS Project Overview Part 1

    25. Activities Leading to the BSS Project

    26. BSS Project Phases Phase 1 Project leadership was provided by: Co-Executive Sponsors- Bernie Blais, CEO North Simcoe Muskoka Local Health Integration Network (NSM LHIN) and Kenneth Deane, ADM, Health System Accountability and Performance Division, MOHLTC Partners- Alzheimer Society of Ontario (ASO) & Alzheimer Knowledge Exchange (AKE) & Divisions of the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (MOHLTC). Supported by- Ontario Health Quality Council Phases 2 (demonstration and testing) and Phase 3 (provincial implementation) are contemplated at this time

    27. Different lens ,different meaning and approach Our professional identity began to develop long before we entered into our various educational programs. It started with what you learned in the media, from your family and your friends about the various professions. It became cemented by profession specific language and cultures through your educational process and it continue to mature throughout your career. Because of your profession specific perspective, you are looking at the world through certain theories. These theories cause you to choose certain assessments. Based on your assessments, you choose certain treatments. These treatments lead to certain outcomes. It is the way you see the world that defines your professional identity. Each profession sees things a little differently. This is like the parable of the five blind men encountering an elephant. In this picture, it is half a dozen blindfold scientists. The person who examines the tail may say “It is long and flexible, with a fuzzy end. An elephant is like a rope”. The scientist who encounters the lef may say “It is tall and immovable. An elephant is like a tree”. The person encountering the tusk may say “It is pointy and very hard. An elephant is like a dangerous spear”. In each case, the person has an incomplete idea of what an elephant is. To truly understand what an elephant is, they must do two things. First, they have to acknowledge they may not be seeing the whole picture. With this acknowledgement, they must be able to listen to another person’s assessment and try to integrate that with their own eperience.

    28. What has informed the first phase? Types of Information Lived Experience “Conversations about Care” over 100 caregivers consulted on how the system should work Lived experience member on BSS leadership team Practice Based information Seniors Health Research Network Community of Practice regional forums regional forums were held over the summer. Facilitated by members of Ontario Health Quality Council and attended by approximately 200 cross sectoral field opinion leaders. Research Rapid Evidence Review- literature review looking at best practices in behavioural support services research focusing on review articles Local, National and International reach Inventory of Projects initial inventory of projects from across Ontario focused on target population Ontario BSS Virtual Advisory Panel 40-50 volunteers who were given opportunity to comment on draft model, rapid evidence review National BSS Initiative 3 meetings with group representing all provinces and territories Conversations with opinion leaders in targeted sectors Acquired Brain Injury; Aging and Developmental Disabilities; ED ALC panel lead; Community Outreach Programs in Addictions; neurological health charities groups; ministry leaders

    29. Now is the time for action This is an important target population The numbers of people at risk for responsive behaviours is increasing Significant costs are associated with managing behaviours The person and family require better quality experiences The system needs to change, and current investments should be aligned and integrated for this population For example, investments in Aging at Home, Alzheimer's Strategy, Resident’s First, ED ALC Recognized best practices could be more systematically adopted There is stakeholder readiness to move forward Challenges are experienced across all health sectors and services Already have grassroots support of the SHRTN effort and some system capacity in quality improvement

    30. Elements of Proposed system model Part 2

    31. Priority Target Population Target Population: older adults with complex and responsive behaviours associated with cognitive impairments due to complex mental health, addictions, dementia, or other neurological conditions and their caregivers. Includes those living in long-term care homes or in independent living settings Note: The vision and guiding principles and overall framework are applicable to other populations with similar challenges such as: individuals with an acquired brain injury, and younger adults with age-related and neurological illnesses.

    32. Making a Difference Moving Toward Person and Caregiver Directed care , (before and after the tipping point (how do we get there?) within a generation (25 years) that number could reach between 1 million and 1.3 millionwithin a generation (25 years) that number could reach between 1 million and 1.3 million

    33. Principles to Guide System Model Overarching Principle The principle of person and caregiver directed care has been put forward as a key, overarching principle that needs to be reflected strategically as well as in day to day practice. All persons must be treated with respect and accepted “as one is”, the older person and caregiver/family/social supports have a central voice and are the driving partners in the care and life goal decisions. Other proposed relevant principles include: 1. Behaviour is Communication Challenging behaviours can be minimized by understanding the person and adapting the environment or care to better meet the individual’s unmet needs. 2. Diversity Practices must value language, ethnicity, race, religion, gender, beliefs/traditions and life experiences of the people being served 3. Collaborative Care Accessible, comprehensive assessment and intervention requires an interdisciplinary approach which includes professionals from different disciplines, as well as the client and family members, to cooperatively create a joint, single plan of care.

    34. Principles to Guide System Model cont. 4. Safety The creation of a culture of safety and well-being is promoted where older adults and families live and visit and where staff work. 5. System Coordination and Integration Systems are built upon existing resources and initiatives and encourage the development of synergies among existing and new partners to ensure access to a full range of integrated services and flexible supports based on need. 6. Accountability and Sustainability The accountability of the system, health and social service providers and funder to each other is defined and ensured Move through the principles then ask for comments, additions, clarification Move through the principles then ask for comments, additions, clarification

    35. 3 Pillars of the BSS Model

    36. The Essential Elements of each Pillar

    37. Proposed Next steps Part 3

    38. Main Goals in Moving Forward Improved Patient Experience Primary objective is patient driven care – current system is not patient driven Need to find ways to enhance caregiver supports Improved System Performance We are not measuring system performance in this area- need to develop system indicators Better ways of providing care exist- system requires some standardization of practice and the protocols to support this

    39. A Proposed Phase 2: Implementation and Testing Some Assumptions Modest new investment is required to change performance since current investments have provided a good foundation. Many innovative solutions exist, but may not have been evaluated fully or spread across the province. Implementation must incorporate and build on these projects. Standardization of practice through the use and development of guidelines and protocols in key areas is required Ontario needs to continue to take a leadership role nationally on this topic A quality improvement approach is necessary to create the system changes across all sectors and to ensure implementation includes better handoffs, integration and transitions Knowledge exchange occurs during the implementation to facilitate spread of good ideas and ensure timely course corrections Full coordinated evaluation is necessary including system outcomes, creation of indicators and potentially new data collection including all phase 2 projects
