Celebrating Successes
Immunization Outcomes: Taking Care to the Clients
The Central network took on the challenge of bringing up immunization rates to heart in the past year.
By changing the way they deliver public health in their community, they have seen an increase in
immunization rates across the board and they have also seen an increase in community engagement.
They started taking public health to the places their clients are – schools, community centers, etc. By
doing this, it has improved access to services for that group and the result has been increased
immunization rates.
Seniors House Calls: Taking healthcare to those who can’t access it themselves
In the past year, the Seniors House Calls team has expanded their staff and been a critical link in
improving access to service for Regina seniors who have mobility issues, complex medical issue and
who are frequent visitors to the ER. AS part of a multi-disciplinary team, they liaise with their
colleagues through the region to bring care to those who cannot seek it themselves thereby reducing
the reliance on acute beds in hospital and in ER visits.
Breathe Easy: Respiratory Therapy being done in community
Access to Respiratory Therapy Services in community has improved over the past 12 months. An
interdisciplinary Primary Health Care team has been collaborating with Physicians and Nurse
Practitioner’s in Private and Primary Health Care practices to offer pulmonary services to RQHR
clients. Spirometry is being performed in community clinics as well as in client homes. The team has
been working closely with clients and their care teams to better manage COPD in community. This
team has also been facilitating COPD rehabilitation programs in our PHC Networks.
Celebrating Successes
RN in hospital supporting high quality transitions
Our hospital colleagues care for a high volume of COPD clients. To help improve quality transitions
from hospital to home, a community Registered Nurse is working in hospital to support clients with
suspected and diagnosed COPD.. She connects with colleagues in hospital to collaboratively care for
clients and supportively transition them to our Primary Health Care Networks who provide care to
clients to remain well at home.
Community Support Worker: Improving safety and access one patient at a time
In the urban Primary Health Care portfolio, North, Central and now South, have embraced a new type
of heath care provider that focuses on medical and social needs. The Community Support Worker fills
in the gaps in care for those people who need much more than medical intervention. Their health is
also reliant on accessing safe housing, medical appointments and food. But they are not in it alone,
they often work with other providers to ensure continuity of care and high quality transitions between
providers to ensure their clients continue to stay out of acute and ER facilities.
Medication Room Kanban at Wolseley Memorial Integrated Care Centre.
An improvement event at Wolseley Memorial Integrated Care Centre has reduced the amount of time
staff needs to order medications by 93% (from 2.5 hours to 10 minutes every two weeks). Staff
grouped similar items together, set regular ordering amounts and posted those amounts on the
medication bins to improve ordering practices. Nurses now use a cart to deliver patient medications
which has reduced the amount of unnecessary walking by 100% (from 18 feet per patient to 0). This
success built on the work completed in the last fiscal year by Indian Head and Broadview. It’s a true
example of team work.
Celebrating Successes
Palliative Care Comfort Cart
When people arrive onto the Palliative Care unit, they are in a fragile state of health and often families
are accompanying them for long periods of time. To ensure that both patients and families are
comfortable, a Comfort Cart was implemented. Thanks to volunteers from St Cecilia Parish, Holy
Trinity Parish and a donation by Alfords, a cart stocked with the comforts of home is providing some
much needed comfort. They even have homemade quilts that families and patients can keep after their
stay.
Home Care cuts care supply costs 16 per cent
Home Care is spending 16 per cent less on supplies (a projected $585,051 in 2016-17 compared to
$695,591 in 2013-14) all while providing more units of service* and caring for more clients, in part,
because of the implementation of a new inventory management system. The system includes a daily
supply order board that allows supply depot staff to see at a glance whether supplies need to be
ordered, have been ordered or are on back order and an electronic supply order form that’s part of a
client’s electronic medical record. Keeping the order form with the record allows nurses to see
whether care supplies have been ordered or more are required. Staff no longer wastes supplies
