1 Senior Director, and Chief Nursing Executive Policy General Rehabilitation Page 1 of 7 The Waterloo Wellington Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) recommends access to general rehabilitation beds in planning of care with individuals who would benefit from an interim step in their transition home following an episode of care in an acute care Hospital. The focus of this transition is an effort to reduce the risk of a hospital readmission. LHIN-Wide Approach The General Rehabilitation Program is a partnership between the Waterloo Wellington CCAC, acute care sites and general rehabilitation sites. It is a LHIN-wide program comprised of general rehabilitation beds located at: Grand River Hospital, Freeport Health Centre (GRH FHC) St. Joseph s Health Centre (SJHC) Cambridge Memorial Hospital (CMH). Based on a LHIN-wide prioritization framework, individuals may be suited to a setting within the Waterloo Wellington LHIN. However, a location outside their home community may need to be selected according to the first available bed policy. As a result, a general rehabilitation setting available location may be any 1 of the 3 locations above. When multiple vacancy locations are available simultaneously, the geographic location (close proximity of the Patient/caregiver home) will be considered by the WWCCAC during the selection process. Any requests for exception will be considered with the General Rehabilitation program Manager. This LHIN-wide approach relates to all general rehabilitation settings. Role of CCAC Program Description The CCAC works with individuals in determining eligibility, site matching, coordination and access to the general rehabilitation program beds. This includes communicating program criteria, managing wait lists and managing program admissions in light of the LHIN-wide approach to care transitions. The purpose of the General Rehabilitation Program is to provides intensive, goaloriented rehabilitation for individuals living with stable medical conditions and require a level of nursing or medical care intervention not available in the home or community setting (refer to General Rehabilitation Program Description WW556 and Waterloo Wellington Rehabilitation/Transitional Program Framework WW555). Out-of-regional referral sources may complete an application. Program length of stay is determined by specific rehabilitation goals with a target ranging between 7-40 days in order that improved strength, endurance and/or function and safe transitions to the community can be achieved. The specific therapy service model includes: Occupational therapy (OT) and physiotherapy (PT) is 60 minutes per day (5-7 times per week) with a therapist and/or therapy assistant. Care plans are individualized and adjusted according to an individual s stamina and level of tolerance. Role of Discharge Planner An individual completing the application is responsible to complete the general rehabilitation application in its entirety. This individual may be a WWCCAC Care Coordinator (CC) or another health care professional who is working with the person (applicant) during the discharge planning process at the acute care hospital.
2 Senior Director, and Chief Nursing Executive Eligibility Criteria Page 2 of 7 The General Rehabilitation Program eligibility criteria, includes an individual that : is at least 16 years of age; that needs therapy intervention level that cannot be provided at the community resources level (community services, outpatient therapy, CCAC services and private pay services); or is currently working with the WWCCAC and service needs are more than what the community-based service programming; has stable medical health status (i.e., all acute issues are resolved or have reached a plateau) or progressing toward health stability with the interventions associated with a clinical care path; agrees to participate in the program and is committed, willing, and motivated to participate; and understands the regional program guidelines and has completed a Letter of Understanding WW553D; and will benefit from the program as evidenced by the assessor s clinical experience best practice and literature; demonstrates a potential for achieving the identified functional goals, has the ability to participate in the learning process and integrate new learning and skills into their daily life; has functional and/or clinical goals established that are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and timely (SMART); and demonstrates potential to tolerate being up and out of bed for at least 2-3 hours per day; the individual has demonstrated a potential to endure greater than 1 hour of therapy per day for up to 7 days per week; demonstrates cognitive ability to participate in setting goals and assimilating the new learning into his/her activities of daily living e.g., where a patient scores 15/30 or less on a MOCA or a delayed recall of less than 2/5, he/she may not be able to achieve carryover of new skills; is has the expressed commitment of returning to the community, with family and community support services as needed; has verbalized with the assessor a realistic and viable discharge plan; has pre-determined special equipment needs if applicable; the ability to actively participate in the program on a daily basis and the treatment of other co-morbid illnesses/conditions will not interfere e.g., ongoing chemotherapy, radiation therapy, dialysis that requires frequent trips offsite and may impact activity tolerance; has a follow-up plan in place (where possible) at the time of referral and follow-up appointments are scheduled at the time of discharge from acute care.
