2 Purpose of this Forum 0 Discuss critical incidents and importance of reporting them, using information learned 0 Review DMHAS policy and procedure around critical incidents 0 Introduce new online incident reporting system going online on October 1, Explain how to gain access to system and who should be involved in critical incident reporting 0 Answer questions and address issues

3 What IS a critical incident? Critical incidents are defined as incidents which may have a serious or potential serious impact on: 0 DMHAS clients 0 DMHAS or PNP contracted staff 0 State operated or contracted facilities 0 The public OR 0 Anything else may bring about adverse publicity

4 Examples 0 A client at a methadone maintenance clinic stops coming in for her regular dose. A few days later, clinic staff notice her obituary in the local newspaper. 0 Residents of a group home are awakened by a smoke alarm and are evacuated to a safe area. They are allowed back in the building after it is declared safe by the fire department. 0 A man receiving detox services complains of rapid heartbeat and shortness of breath and is taken to the emergency department for assessment.

5 Examples, continued 0 A young man comes in to the program office in an agitated state. He makes threatening statements about his counselor and will not calm down. Staff call the police. 0 A supported housing client is found unresponsive in her bed by a visiting nurse. 0 FBI agents visit a man who receives case management services from a state operated LMHA. This consumer has been sending threatening letters to various public officials, including the governor.

6 Benefits of Critical Incident Reporting 0 Did you know that critical incident reporting was invented during WWII as a way to understand the causes of airplane crashes? (Branch, 2005) 0 Debriefing tool to process event 0 Used in medical and nursing schools 0 Anecdotal information, when collected, can coalesce into patterns that can be analyzed 0 Tool for quality monitoring and improvement on multiple levels 0 Heads up for DMHAS as responsible entity

7 What is required by DMHAS? 0 Information about the nature of the incident (when, where, who, what) 0 Timely reporting to the Office of the Commissioner 0 Not intended to supplant any other reporting requirements, e.g. Department of Public Health, the Connecticut Occupational Health and Safety Administration 0 Should not be superseded by other reporting requirements

8 What is required by DMHAS? 0 Verbal Report within three (3) hours of the incident (or learning of the incident) to the DMHAS Critical Incident Line: (860) (within reason)* 0 If a Verbal Report is to be made after hours, call the Connecticut Valley Hospital switchboard for assistance: (860) * 0 Within one (1) business day, the Written Report should be made to Office of the Commissioner * These requirements will remain the same.

9 Current Reporting Procedure 0 A paper form is completed and faxed to a secure fax line in OOC s Community Services Division. 0 The faxed report is reviewed by the Director of CSD or her delegate. 0 The report is brought over to staff in the Evaluation, Quality Management, and Improvement Division. 0 EQMI staff enter data from the paper form into an Access 2003 database (ouch!) 0 CONS: Reports often handwritten; delay in data entry and dissemination of info to senior management and other DMHAS staff.

10 New Reporting Procedure 0 User at the LMHA or Addiction Service provider agency logs into the Critical Incident Application in the DDaP Portal 0 Critical incident report is entered into online webbased application 0 Once data entry is complete, automated alerts are sent to DMHAS senior management and regional managers 0 PROS: No more faxing; information gets to where it needs to be faster; online data collection form allows for client search and information retrieval (less work)

11 Anticipated Improvements 0 Security data is entered directly into online site secured by VPN (Virtual Private Network) 0 Improved speed and quality of notification - most fields are required in the online system, so missing data will be reduced 0 Legibility no more handwriting! 0 Reduced time needed to report- user will be able to look up client in system; no need to input redundant information

12 What s new reporting process 0 LMHA or Addiction Service provider staff will report critical incidents through the online portal 0 OOC will no longer receive faxed reports 0 OOC will no longer handle data entry of critical incidents 0 Users will be able to update and close critical incident reports online

13 LMHAs 0 PNP Mental Health Affiliates will continue to report critical incident reports to their LMHA 0 LMHAs will identify specific users to handle critical incident reporting 0 Specified users will enter critical incident reports into online Critical Incident Application 0 LMHAs will be able to monitor, update, and close affiliates critical incident reports online

14 LMHA Affiliates (PNP MH provider agencies) 0 Continue reporting critical incidents to designated LMHA contacts 0 Use new internal form to standardize reporting to LMHAs (

15 Addiction Service Providers 0 Addiction Service Providers will identify specific users to handle critical incident reporting 0 Specified users will enter critical incident reports into online Critical Incident Application 0 Addiction Service Providers will be able to monitor, update, and close critical incident reports online
