Through more meaningful and intentional inclusion of PS providers in team-based home care delivery, project outputs will amplify PS #leadership in the delivery of #PersonCentred home care, improving #ProviderExperience & contributing to stabilization of this essential #workforce.

In this study we used group concept mapping to collaboratively identify action areas and co-develop strategies to support use of the #interRAI Check Up to support #integrated person-centres health and social care for #OlderAdults and their #CarePartners.

Key findings from my perspective? It’s not as much about the tool (we know that it is rigorously developed and tested) but rather HOW we integrate it into daily practice. This must be intentional and involve co-design of processes AND education / resources to support use.

A study compared 3 #FallRisk Ax tools from 18 #LTC homes in NS & NB- A history of falls was top predictor of future falls. Collecting more factors to predict fall risk does not add greater value. #interRAI Fall Risk CAP stood out as the most reliable tool. doi.org/10.1017/s07149808200…

Got mine and my flu shot too! 💉
Did you get a new #COVID shot this fall? Federal figures show only 15 per cent of the Canadian population had received an updated vaccine by Dec. 3 — and less than half of higher-risk older adults. My latest on why that matters: cbc.ca/news/health/just-15-o…

Today I went looking for the 2017 Levels of Care Framework developed by an expert panel to improve the quality and consistency of #homecare and #communitycare for people in #Ontario and found it has been scrubbed from the internet… What gives @OntarioHealthOH?

Now this ⬇️ is #leadership. So many take to the internet to highlight the issues in our system. Let’s start a new trend where we express our gratitude and celebrate the exceptional care being provided every day. #AllShipsRise
I’m at the hospital with my daughter who is receiving an iron infusion. The care has been exceptional - the nurses kind, attentive, reassuring. A reminder that despite our challenges it is the people that remain extraordinary. 🙏🏼 #nurses #healthcare #cdnhealth
