3 leadership team statement We are delighted to present our first ever quality report*, which records the steps we took to improve our services and outcomes. Quality is important to all of us, and in 2009 we launched our patient safety initiative, highlighting six priority areas for the provider arm services to focus on, and drive improvement. They were: Reduce medication errors Reduce patient falls Ensure clinical audit is carried out in every clinical unit Set up the Health Waikato mortality committee Improve our hand hygiene practices Implement a safe patient care programme Since then, we have seen steady improvement against each of the priorities, and a growing focus on improving the quality and safety of care we deliver. This is an excellent achievement as we faced the challenge of refurbishing and/or commissioning new areas of both Waikato and Thames hospitals as part of our major campus redevelopment programme during this time. At Waikato Hospital, we opened the refurbished delivery suite, a new newborn intensive care unit, opened the new emergency department and the Acute Services Building. Meanwhile at Thames we opened the Clinical Centre, the inpatient unit and more recently a new primary birthing unit. Part of our journey to success in these areas has been a focus on a strong project methodology, plus introducing the productive series across inpatient wards, our emergency department and some community service areas. We also focused on improving our performance management reporting frameworks, which reports on patient safety, finance and performance targets against key priorities such as elective surgery, six-hour acute targets and smoking cessation. Looking back, we made significant progress since 2009 and our staff can be proud of what they achieved. Looking forward, our focus will continue on improving patient safety, clinical effectiveness and patient outcomes. We look forward to working with all staff as we strive to reach these goals together. During 2011/2012 we will standardise the reporting data into a consistent format, refine the quality strategy and focus on process improvement.

5 priority 1: reduce medication errors STATUS: Achieved Aim To improve the standards and clarity of prescribing so that prescribers intentions about treatment are clear thereby reducing medication errors and thus improving patient safety. Achievement to date Prescribing practices at Waikato DHB hospitals have been recognised as inconsistent and often below the standard required under the Waikato DHB Medicines Management Policy. In order to try and address prescribing standards, medical, nursing, pharmacy and Medicine Safety Forum representatives discussed the fundamental issues and developed a programme strategy. A pharmacy team led the campaign and was responsible for developing all resources, co-ordinating consultation, communication, audits, reporting and implementation of the programme. Following a baseline audit at Waikato Hospital in 2007, a high profile campaign was undertaken. As well as using a range of themed educational and promotional materials, the Prescribing Improvement Programme included an incentives initiative: prescribers who charted medicines to the required standard were given a chocolate fish card which they could exchange for a real chocolate fish. Everyone receiving a chocolate fish card had their names put into a weekly draw for a coffee voucher and at the end of the programme, a dinner voucher. Implementation took place in a co-ordinated approach at Waikato, Thames, Te Kuiti, Tokoroa and Taumarunui hospitals. Ward pharmacists were responsible for implementing the campaign at Waikato and Thames hospitals, nurses led the campaigns for the other hospitals in the absence of a clinical pharmacy service. The programme was highly successful in highlighting an area of improvement for medicine safety and overall did so in a positive and engaging way. An audit following the Prescribing Improvement Programme showed actual improvements in a number of areas.! 5

6 Withdrawal of the activities focussing prescribers on prescribing practice in the co-ordinated approach of the Prescribing Improvement Programme resulted in a dilution of effect over time. In early 2009 it was apparent that an extension to the programme was necessary in order to embed a culture change. A repeat of the Prescribing Improvement Programme was conducted and then followed by a Zero Tolerance campaign. The Zero Tolerance to prescribing errors involved a new set of resources and required a high level of input from both pharmacy and nursing staff. Although an audit showed success in changing some prescribing behaviours, the programme was not sustainable. Discussion at the Medicine Safety Forum led to the decision for Pharmacy to lead annual repeats of the successful Prescribing Improvement Programme and the latest of these was undertaken earlier this year.

7 Medicine Reconciliation Medicine reconciliation is an evidence based process that has been shown to reduce medication errors at transition points of care (admission, transfer and discharge). By following standard processes, any discrepancies between a patient s medicines prior to admission and those prescribed in hospital can be identified. The aim is to reduce discrepancies that have the potential to become medication errors or result in medication related harm to the patient. Although the standardised processes can be followed by any trained health professional, to date it is Pharmacy Services that have undertaken medicine reconciliation at Waikato Hospital. The two key means of doing this have been the chronic care management pharmacists and ward based pharmacy technicians. The chronic care pharmacists undertake medicine reconciliation at admission and discharge as well as review a patient s medicines and spend time educating the patient and assessing any medicine management issues they may have. The ward based pharmacy technicians also undertake medicine reconciliation at admission and discharge and help in the provision of medication cards. The project continues to operate on wards 5 and 14 of Waikato Hospital. The two ward based pharmacy technicians are providing medicine reconciliation, discharge checks, medication cards, warfarin and patient medication education to these wards. The Safe Medication Management Programme project started on 6 October 2010 to run parallel with the medication reconciliation project for three months with ward 14 used for the pilot study. Following the success of this pilot, the programme continued on ward 14 and has recently been initiated on ward A4.

8 improving patient safety priority 2: reduce patient falls STATUS: Achieved Aim The key aim of the Waikato DHB multi-factorial fall prevention programme is to reduce patient harm related to falling by 10 percent. The DHB falls committee, which has a multi-disciplinary membership, continues to demonstrate the organisational commitment to minimise patient falls. The collaborative partnership between Waikato DHB and Upright enabled the implementation of the research based validated fall risk assessment model (Hendrich II Fall Risk Model), in all appropriate inpatient and several out-patient/clinic areas of the provider arm. Greater staff awareness promotes an everybody s business approach to fall prevention; nursing and allied health colleagues are now better engaged in critical thinking and matching specific falls risk factors with individually assessed interventions. At the present time education and training focuses on nurses, health care assistants and allied health groups as these staff spend the largest proportion of time providing direct care. Resources are more focused on patients identified at high risk of falling. Interventions to reduce risk of harm are becoming better embedded into the usual care planning process, so fall risk management is part of daily language and clinical practice. A data management system provides the ability to record and report on falls events facilitating systematic improvements are available for service use, in conjunction with the established incident management process. However, the upright falls prevention programme is only one part of the systems approach detailed in the fall risk assessment, minimisation and management (inpatient) procedure. The approach aligns and enables a better connect between local fall prevention initiatives such as falls focus groups, identified fall champions at site, product trials (non-slip socks, sensor mats, personal alarms, invisabeam and ultra low beds), regular newsletters and an informed falls website one stop shop staff resource of fall prevention information and minimisation strategies. The fall risk assessment, minimisation and management (inpatient) procedure is presently under review, increasing status to a policy and encompassing fall prevention across all Waikato DHB areas. The initial stage of the programme supports the nursing and midwifery directorate s fall minimisation key performance indicator as fall prevention becomes business as usual and service quality committees monitor success measurements. Achievement to date There is an increase in the number of fall risk assessments and interventions included in patient clinical records and an improved staff knowledge, as more than 1600 staff accessed the on line falls education, 900 staff completed the falls education and competency test (auditable on line). Most areas are reporting between 50 percent to 100 percent education compliance. Interrogating the Quality and Risk incident data base, shows some successes for the fall prevention programme, but also indicates further work is required to meet the required 10 percent reduction in patient falls. There has been a slight increase in the number of falls reported, which could be due to the increased staff education and awareness of fall prevention. 8

9 Reporting per 1000 bed days, details: The average fall rate for 2010/11 year to date is above the rate for the same time last year but the injury rate has decreased. The average fall rate has been reduced by 0.26 from 2008/09 to 2009/10, equating to approximately 70 less falls across the DHB based on 2009/10 bed days. The average injury rate has fallen from 47 to 43 from 2008/09 to 2009/10, indicating that number of falls resulting in injury has decreased by 4 percent. The injury rate for 2010/11 YTD is below previous years at 42. The number of falls resulting in a SAC score of 1 increased from 2009/10 to 2010/11. The total number of bed days increased from 2009/10 to 2010/11 while the number of patients has increased.

The fall rate has decreased across all age groups for females but has generally increased for males from 2008/09 to 2009/10. The injury rate has fallen across all age groups and genders from 2009/10 to 2010/11 except for males aged Most hospitals have shown a decrease in their fall rate from 2008/09 to 2009/10, with Te Kuiti showing the greatest decrease. Some hospitals have experienced an increase in falls from 2008/09 to 2009/10 with Rhoda Read having the greatest increase. Taumarunui and Matariki s injury rate decreased significantly from 2008/09 to 2009/10, while Te Kuiti experienced an increase. The Patient Safety Board accepted and signed off on the end of programme report which included further measures of the success of the falls minimisation processes evaluations including staff feedback, audit as well as incident trends, education compliance and procedure compliance. 9

10 improving patient safety priority 3: ensure clinical audit is carried out in every clinical unit STATUS: Achieved Aim Clinical audit is identified as an essential and integral part of good clinical practice and is defined as a clinically led systematic critical review of the quality of clinical care comparing the actual practice with the standard practice, which is done with an aim of improving clinical care. Clinical audit activity carried out within the Waikato DHB is monitored and supported by the Clinical Audit Support Unit (CASU) with the set goal of ensuring that the clinical audit is carried out in every clinical unit within Waikato DHB. CASU SUPPORT To fulfil this goal, CASU facilitates preparation of audit programmes, audit registrations, developing audit tools, finding support patient information, data entry support, data analysis including statistical data analysis and preparation of audit reports for the auditors. CASU also undertakes work shops regarding the clinical audit process. Sample clinical audits are regularly uploaded into the intranet. The auditors work is recognised by the certificates issued for Completion of a clinical audit and the Audit lead certificates. CASU maintains a central repository of all clinical audit activity happening within the Waikato DHB. Data stored within the central repository is used to generate reports regarding clinical audit activity per clinical unit and to follow up on clinical audits to make sure that auditors are supported to complete a clinical audit if required. CASU also promote the development of achievable recommendations and implementation of them to improve current clinical practice and re-audits to see if change of practice is actually happening. CASU is a support unit. Being part of the patient safety initiative helped to raise awareness among the clinicians regarding the importance of participating in clinical audits and the support available to accomplish clinical auditing. Achievement to date Since 2009 more than 600 clinical audits have been registered with CASU. However, there may still be clinical audits happening in Waikato DHB which are not registered with CASU. The number of clinical audits that are registered with CASU shows a gradual upward trend indicating more clinicians are actively engaging in clinical audit activity. Total number of clinical audits registered per month January 2009-JUNe 2011 Total number of clinical audits Jan 09 Feb 09 Mar 09 Apr 09 May 09 Jun 09 Jul 09 Aug 09 Sep 09 Oct 09 Nov 09 Dec 09 Jan 10 Feb 10 Mar 10 Apr 10 May 10 Jun 10 Jul 10 Aug 10 Sep 10 Oct 10 Nov 10 Dec 10 Jan 11 Feb 11 Mar 11 Apr 11 May 11 Jun 11 Month Audits Re-audits Linear audits 10

11 We identified 106 areas (45 departments, 55 nursing and six allied health) as meeting the criterion to carry out a minimum of two clinical audits per year. By the end of 2010, 89.6% (95/106) of the identified 106 areas had registered clinical audit activity with CASU (41 (91%) departments, 49 (89%) nursing areas and five (83%) of the allied health areas). Of the 95, 42% (44) completed the minimum two clinical audits. The number of clinical audits shows an increase in audit activity per unit / department from 2009 to 2010 (2011 is not a complete year as the number of audits is calculated from completed and ongoing clinical audits registered by nursing and medical staff over a calendar year). The audits carried out by multidisciplinary teams were allocated to the lead auditor s clinical unit. CASU has also set other targets to support a robust clinical audit process and improve the quality of the clinical audits -see table below. CASU patient safety targets 2010 Achieved % of the 106 identified areas to develop an annual clinical audit 69 % by June programme by June % by August > 30 area to complete the minimum 2 clinical audits 42% > 80% of completed audits have achievable and measurable 88% recommendations developed for criteria/ standards where non compliance has been identified by Dec 10. > 25% of clinical audits complete the audit cycle by carrying out Departments 73% (11/15) re-audits by Dec 10 Nursing 54% (33/61) Allied health 67% (2/3) > 80% of clinical audits to achieve a score of 16 or more when 93% assessed using the clinical audit assessment tool by Dec 10 Research indicates lack of time is the biggest barrier for clinicians unless dedicated time is allocated within their busy work schedules to conduct clinical audits. CASU s role is to support the clinicians as much as possible with all areas of the auditing process; this support, together with the enthusiasm of clinicians, has brought about the clinical audit activity that is happening. Unfortunately, some of the clinical audits registered with CASU are not completed, usually because the auditor has left and not told CASU the state of their audit. Consequently, these audits end up being recorded as abandoned, even though they have utilised available resources, and thus do not contribute towards improving the quality of clinical care. Since 2009, CASU has recorded 7.5% (46 /613) of the registered clinical audits as abandoned. Almost all clinical units are engaged in clinical audit activity but the number of clinical audits carried out within a clinical unit fluctuates over time. The reasons are multifactorial and include work commitments, other quality improvement activities, and staff changes within the clinical units. 11

12 improving patient safety priority 4: set up the health waikato mortality committee to reduce avoidable mortality STATUS: Achieved Background The objective of the mortality project is to reduce the number of preventable deaths. Davis et.al, (2003) summarised that a substantial amount of preventable adverse events within New Zealand are system related and therefore susceptible to quality improvements. In addition there is ample international evidence that a hospital mortality reduction programme lowers mortality rates. Waikato DHB also receives retrospective reports on its mortality rate from Health Roundtable (Australasia) and can access Ministry of Health (NZ) reports. On average there are deaths per month at Waikato Hospital. The establishment of the Mortality Committee started in February 2010 and was completed in two stages. Waikato DHB is leading the way nationally around the mortality review process. Stage one included the development of the screening process of all patient deaths in Waikato Hospital using a draft screening tool. Stage two saw the establishment of a Waikato Hospital mortality committee. This committee reports to the Board of Clinical Governance and also to the relevant services. Clinicians report back to this committee on aspects of patient management, where it was identified that more clarity was needed about the care provided. The aim of this being to reduce/remove the recurrence of identified sequence of events. Objectives of the mortality project Reduce avoidable mortality and ensure shared learnings across services/disciplines To ensure understanding gained around mortality throughout Health Waikato Improve standards of care as and when required Achievement to date A total of 99.1% of deceased patients have had a mortality screen between June 2010 and June Of those 2.7% were identified as needing serious event reviews and 10.1% required service level reports back to the mortality committee. The serious event reviews and mortality reports are used to facilitate shared learning with the aim of improving standards of care and reducing mortality.

14 improving patient safety priority 5: improve our hand hygiene practices STATUS: Achieved Aim The principal objective of the Hand Hygiene Campaign is to promote, implement and support a Waikato DHB-wide culture change programme to increase staff compliance with hand hygiene. Raising awareness of essential hand hygiene practice among hospital staff, patients and visitors, is one of the most important ways to stop the spread of micro-organisms and infections. The campaign is part of the Patient Safety Programme, based on staff cleaning their hands or using alcohol based hand rub at key moments in patient care. If the hands of those caring for a patient, as well as the hands of the patient and their family and visitors are kept clean, then the risk of the patient getting an infection will be far less. The campaign utilises recommendations of the World Health Organisation (WHO) World Alliance for Patient Safety High Five Programme, an evidenced-based best practice guidance programme, and the structure of the Hand Hygiene Australia programme, all of which provided key guidance to implementation at Waikato DHB. Components include promotion and awareness raising, a programme of staff education in the WHO best practice five moments for hand hygiene, targeted to all staff groups who have contact with patients (including informal staff e.g: volunteers); increased provision of alcohol- based hand product at point of patient care, and a programme of hand hygiene baseline and compliance audits, conducted in selected clinical areas. Achievements to date Improved standards of hand hygiene achieved in all areas Standards of hand hygiene behaviour improved in all clinical areas since the campaign began, with many areas showing a strong and consistent commitment to continue to improve hand hygiene behaviour in their teams. Practice is assessed regularly by staff trained to observe specific points of practice to assess whether the staff are cleaning their hands at key times and thereby reducing infection risks. The consistent improvements in practice seen over the last two years is a real credit to all staff. waikato dhb staff compliance with moments for hand hygiene 2009-june Dec 09 Dec 10 Jun 11 16% 15% 10% 13% 15% Before touching patient Before procedure After procedure/body fluid exposure After touching patient After touching patient surroundings! 14

15 Improved practice achieved by all clinical staff groups Hand hygiene practice improvement has been achieved by all clinical staff groups, from an overall rating of 31% compliance, to an overall 60% compliance an increase of 29% on baseline. This is a significant improvement in practice (see graph below) Waikato DHB overall hand hygiene compliance per staff group 2009-June 2011 Dec 09 Dec 10 Jun 11 20% 15.5% 32% 14% 34% 25% 27% Nurse/Midwife Doctor HCA Allied Health Blood Students (all) Other staff (eg collection cleaner, attendant, non clinical Increased patient satisfaction Feedback from patients has been positive, they say it gives them reassurance and confidence in the staff as they can see them performing hand hygiene. Patient perception of, and satisfaction with staff cleaning hands when caring for them has shown considerable improvements over the period of implementation. Satisfaction ratings of 10-20% show that staff cleaned their hands during early implementation in 2009 improved to 60% during Reduced incidence of infection outbreaks in 2010 and 2011 A reduction in the incidence of outbreaks or clusters of detrimental organisms spreading between patients and staff in the clinical areas since the campaign began means fewer patients (and staff) impacted by an outbreak of infection, no ward closures at Waikato Hospital and a reduction at rural hospitals means safer care for patients and a safer environment for staff to work.!

17 priority 6: implement a safe patient care programme STATUS: Achieved Aim Introduce the safe patient care programme developed by the Health Roundtable during Achievement to date Rapid Response System (RRS) The purpose of the project is to improve early recognition and management of the deteriorating patient. The main aim is a reduction in the incidence of in-hospital cardiopulmonary arrest, unexpected death, and unplanned intensive care unit admission. A secondary aim is to improve documentation of vital signs, together with appropriate action, effective communication and response (i.e. teamwork) by staff. Stage one of the project is over. This has seen the design and trial of a new standard adult vital sign chart that incorporates an early warning scoring tool, called Adult Deterioration Detection System (ADDS), with an associated escalation/response criteria based on the ADDS score. Included in this response are the clinical resource nurses, as well as appropriate escalation to junior, then senior, medical staff. Trial areas at Waikato Hospital included: Cardiac Care Unit (CC2 / CC 3), Wards 2 and 12 (General Surgery), Ward 22 (Respiratory Medicine), Ward 23 (General Medicine), Ward 14 (Cardiothoracic/Vascular Surgery), and the High Dependency Unit (HDU). ADDS rollout Stage two of the RRS project is well underway. Following the successful trial of ADDS at Waikato Hospital, a general introduction of ADDS is now occurring which saw the new chart and process used in the majority of adult in-patient wards by 1 April Also included in this stage will be the design and trial of a Neuro ADDS chart that incorporates Glasgow Coma Scale monitoring and escalation. This will be done in conjunction with neurosurgery, Comprehensive Stroke Unit, and HDU. Confirmation of a rural ADDS chart and process for Thames, Te Kuiti, Tokoroa and Taumarunui hospitals is also well underway. The system includes a visual representation of a patient s progress captured by the new adult vital signs chart. Staff can see at a glance if there has been any deterioration in a patient s condition, and if there has been, what steps they need to take. An evaluation of the ADDS system at the end of the trial showed that the new chart and process supports improved identification of deterioration and early escalation for medical review. ADDS scores prompt nursing staff to increase the frequency of observations and escalate to medical staff once a review is indicated by the score and staff assessment of patient condition. An ADDS activation sticker is then placed in the continuing medical record (patient notes) at the time nursing staff request a medical review related to an increasing ADDS score. We are aiming for 100 per cent of: improving patient safety patients with observations completed and documented as planned patients with their ADDS score accurately calculated and documented staff having documented ADDS escalation utilising the ADDS activation sticker patients who trigger with an appropriate response (i.e. medical review) 17

18 Audit results so far would indicate that we still have a way to go. Overall compliance with the ADDS process across the areas audited, improved markedly since the trial in April to July We have gone from overall average compliance of 36 percent, to 65 percent by the end of January 2011; in some instances an almost 100 percent improvement.
