1 Expanding Patient-Centred In-Home Physiotherapy Services to Support a Range of Patient Needs and Goals Central East CCAC Mississauga Halton CCAC Central West CCAC
2 Physiotherapy Reform The report, Living Longer, Living Well (Sinha 2012), promotes improved mobility for seniors to help them live safely and independently at home as long as possible. In response, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care launched an initiative to reform PT services including in-home PT services. CCACs: $33 million in annualized funding to expand the provision of in-home physiotherapy services to 60,000 seniors/other patients and clear the physiotherapy wait list Falls Prevention and Exercise Classes: $10 million to provide exercise and falls prevention classes Others: PT Clinics, Long Term Care Home and Primary Care Services
3 Transition from OHIP funded Physiotherapy Services Initial Priorities during the Transition Period Eliminating waiting lists for in-home physiotherapy. Identifying and transitioning patients receiving OHIP-funded physiotherapy (ended on August 21 st, 2013). Streaming to appropriate services In-home physiotherapy Exercise classes Falls prevention Other services Magnitude of the Transition CCACs and SPOs successfully collaborated to transition over 32,000 patients in over 1,000 sites across the province, bringing 23,300 on to care over a four month period.
4 Assumptions prior to the transition Additional needs Patients needing long-term support to maintain function and prevent decline Goal-oriented Physiotherapy Patients who really need PSS services OHIP In-home Physiotherapy CSS Exercise Classes People who need referrals to other services (e.g., pain management) People needing 1:1 help to access classes CSS Falls Prevention
5 Physiotherapy Advisory Panel Recommendations In June of 2013, an advisory panel was established to review the literature and recommend evidence-informed practices to support the development of new, patient-centred models of care. Led by Cathy Hecimovich (CEO of Central West CCAC), membership included experts from geriatrics, the rehabilitation sector and the physiotherapy profession along with CCAC and OACCAC representatives. Recommended a number of evidence-informed innovations including: support for an expansion of PT scope of practice in home care, integration of physiotherapist support personnel, focus on outcome-focused service delivery to serve the needs of different in-home physiotherapy patient groupings, self-management models. To operationalize the recommendations and support the needs of this new population, a provincial working group came together to develop the PT service delivery model of care.
6 In-Home Physiotherapy Service Delivery Model In-Home Physiotherapy Stream 1: Rehabilitation Goal: Improve & Restore Independent Function Stream 2: Restorative Goal: Restore Optimal Function Stream 3: Maintenance Goal: Maintain & Prevent Decline in Function
7 Patient-Centred, Evidence- Informed Care Operationalization of the model of care for PT: expands the capacity of in-home PT service delivery to address a range of patient needs and goals (rehabilitation, restorative and maintenance). reinforces outcome-focused care delivery. brings province-wide consistency to the delivery of in-home physiotherapy services while allowing for local variation. enables the health care system to better support seniors to live as safely and independently as possible. Ongoing work: CCAC sites continue to engage locally with SPOs and retirement home operators to operationalize the recommendations. OACCAC and CCACs continue to engage with provincial associations: ORCA, OCSA, OHCA, APACTS. Implementation and testing continues: based on local needs and conditions, each CCAC is choosing to implement recommendations according to those needs.

10 Our Task Soft Landing for patients Transitioning of 4000 Patients from Designated Physiotherapy Clinics (DPC) to CCAC Ensuring Service Provider human resource capacity 10
11 Phase I - Approach Initiation of a Physiotherapy Steering Committee Seconded an Internal Physiotherapist to provide expert advice to the steering committee Early engagement of Service Provider Organizations (SPO) Early engagement of Retirement Homes (RH) and Congregate Setting Administrators Introduction of Physiotherapy Assistants (PTA s) early in the transition 11
12 Phase I - Approach, cont d Obtained patient lists from RH s and existing DPC providers Assigned patients to SPO based on predetermined cluster care assignments SPO assessment completed for each patient Received recommendations from SPO regarding patient s transition plan exercise and falls prevention classes continue with restorative care (up to 8 weeks) 12
13 Phase I - Approach, cont d Registered all patients in CHRIS Authorized services based on the SPO recommendation 13
14 Phase I - Results, cont d Physiotherapy Reform Statistics 3972 patients received from the DPCs and registered with CECCAC 3290 patients received treatment from CECCAC 2270 referrals to exercise and Falls Prevention Programs 104 patients removed from Physiotherapy waitlist 14
15 Phase I - Results Who Did We Serve? PT Reform Patient Age Distribution 15
16 Phase I - Results, cont d Who Did We Serve? PT Reform Profile (Existing CECCAC Patients) Client Care Model Distribution 16
17 Phase I - What We Spent Physiotherapy Reform Weekly spend peaked w/o September at $137,679 Total 3972 Patients 17
18 Phase II - SPO Engagement Utilizing data from Phase I What is the future going to look like Service Levels Agreement by all SPO to utilize standardize assessment tools Functional Assessment Matrix was developed 3 restorative streams based on functional abilities assessments 18
19 Gait Phase II - Community Based Assessment Measures Timed Up and Go (TUG) 50 Ft Walking Test Dynamic Gait Pain Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Strength Manual Muscle Testing 19
20 Phase II - Community Based Assessment Measures cont d Balance Functional Reach BERG Tinetti Other Elderly Mobility Scale (EMS) Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) Barthel Physical Performance Test (PPT) 20

29 Phase III - What We Spent Physiotherapy Streams Includes All PT streams Weekly spend peaked w/o March At $44,326 29
30 Phase III - Total Spend 30
31 Phase III Lessons Learned CECCAC evaluated the sustainability of the Phase III Model Significant financial pressure to meet the target of 6664 additional patients within our budget PT/PTA is a viable model for community based therapy service The change from acute to restorative model of care is a lengthy process for care coordinators and service providers alike 31
32 Phase III (IV) In collaboration with our SPO we are refining our eligibility criteria Stream 2 eligibility Post acute physiotherapy Stroke, risk for falls 2 Physiotherapists and 6 PTA visits Stream 3B 2 Physiotherapist visits to assess for PSW supported activation/maintenance 32
33 Personal Support Services (PSS) Organization Engagement Stream 3B Invited our PSS organizations to assist with the development of the activation program Physiotherapy agencies agreed to develop a standing and sitting activation program appropriate for Personal Support Worker (PSW) supervision Transfer vs delegation of care to PSW 33
34 Next Steps Finalize the standing and sitting activation program Re-educate Care Coordinators and SPO in the new program Set up train the trainer modules for sustainability 34

Gentle movement, ROM or walking small distances. Up to 3-4 PT visits as required to train and monitor progress *CC has discretion to add more PT if necessary* Add PSW time as follows: For cluster care sites, add additional units 15 or 30 mins (Enter as 1.25 or 1.50 in CHRIS) For in home - Care coordinator has discretion to allow 30 mins -1 hour extra PSW per week to accommodate PT programme. Alternatively, it can be built into existing PSW allotment. Mississauga Halton CCAC 43

45 Key Assumptions Patients would begin at Stream 1 and progress through subsequent streams if required Physiotherapists would determine total number of visits required and length of stay Physiotherapists would identify the need for PTA involvement and provide oversight and direction as to PTA service Physiotherapists would continue to work with PSW as in traditional models; PSWs could now begin exercise programming as part of their care plans Mississauga Halton CCAC 45

51 Successes The benefits to our patients with these PT Streams is immeasurable if it allows patients to be more active and safer in their home and community, and for some it allows them to stay in their home rather than have to contemplate a move to a RH or LTCF. I like the structure of each stream, goal expectations are known, it is not restrictive in length, clients could start in Stream 1 and progress through to Stream 2 or 3 if as per PT professional judgment/discussion with CCAC that, ongoing therapy would benefit patient. I also like that the frequency authorization is standard for all Access ordering the service, because it equalizes services for all, rather than I think they should receive 2 visits and some other Access CCs think 1 visit is enough. Mississauga Halton CCAC 51
52 Phase 2 - Changes Model/framework remained the same Reinforced use of the RAI-CA rehab algorithm at intake CC chooses stream; subject to change based on initial clinical PT assessment Visit frequency/length of stay was modified Removed the prescriptive PT/PTA visit specifications Revised the PT/PSW service plan Revised the PSR/CSR Reinforced the use of SMART goals Implemented the reporting of clinical outcome measures pre/post test scores Mississauga Halton CCAC 52

59 Central West CCAC Physiotherapy and Exercise and Falls Prevention Program Kimberley Floyd Central West CCAC June 9, 2014
60 Overall Vision: To Develop a Sustainable Physiotherapy / Exercise and Falls Prevention Program in the Central West Region
61 Execution of PT Reform in Central West LHIN Allowing for continuity of care between in-home physiotherapy and exercise and falls prevention with CCAC implementing and overseeing both streams Developing a flexible, streamlined and innovative delivery model that blends exercise and falls prevention classes to optimize available resources and maximize outreach to seniors
62 Physiotherapy Continuum Consistent service provider treats patient within neighbourhood approach to care (congregate setting and in home/community settings) Patient progresses through streams that meet their presenting needs within safe and effective transition between streams with no gaps in service or redundancy in assessments and treatment Execution of recommended PT streams across all service providers supported by exercise and falls prevention classes as an extension of any one on one in home stream Care offered across continuum close to home in neighbourhood locations across the LHIN
63 Exercise and Falls Prevention Classes Implementing a combined Exercise and Falls Prevention education service delivery model Ensuring continuity of care Optimizing available resources and maximizing outreach to seniors through innovative model of care All classes are replicated in congregate and community settings including specialized classes sensitive to community needs (mental health, culture and disease specific)
64 Exercise and Falls Prevention Model Each class has a blended approach of exercise and falls prevention built into every class Classes run 48 weeks a year Overseen by regulated health care professional PTA runs the class under a supervision model by the PT Congregate settings and Community Based classes are supported by this model Building of strong community partnerships for community sites including Recreation and Parks departments, municipalities, primary care practices and other community settings Self management and chronic disease management education components built in through interprofessional team based organized sessions
65 Commitments of PT Model Committed presence of therapy team in congregate settings to integrate into the inter-professional team Consistent team of therapists working within each congregate setting Provide a continuum of care with in home Physiotherapy and exercise and falls prevention classes with PT and PTA model Communication/documentation within congregate settings Support in falls prevention programs in Retirement Homes as per Retirement Home Act Timeliness of interventions (reduce waste in the process or unnecessary bureaucratic steps) Main elements of model replicated across all locations Model transferable to in home focus
66 Lessons Learned Communication: Process is required for weekly established meetings between PT care team and Retirement Home PT and PTA of class and in home therapy must be supported to case conference Oversight: Supervision Model is imperative between PT and PTA PT needs to have professional accountability for whole model Appropriate compensation must be offered to support program oversight, supervision, care planning and participation in falls prevention programming Standardizing quality metrics across continuum that is evidenced based Intake Process: Needs to be seamless and real time Encourage therapist and congregate setting to forward a referral and then receive immediate authorization to assess patient (supports transition from hospital to home as one example)
67 Logistics Screening Processes to recommend class best suited to the needs of the senior and to support service outcomes by regulated health care professional Seniors registered in desired classes (location and time convenience) in order to maximize consistent attendance in classes Attendance monitored for all class settings (congregate and community locations in order to provide CSS sector statistics) Care Coordinators attached to congregate and community sites as points of contact and patient level care planning and system navigation Strengthened collaborative care planning that extends beyond PT reform (proactive service planning opportunities)
68 Five Pillars of Ideal Continuum of Care Continuity of Care Team (PT, PTA and Care Coordinator) Proactive Communication Approaches in Congregate Settings PT and PTA Integrated into Care Team in Congregate Setting Documentation Practices that Support Interprofessional Care Planning Seamless and Timely Access to Service
69 Retirement Home Partnership Collaborative service planning around falls prevention which includes monitoring and reporting of falls Informing program design Commitment of regular engagement re refinement of model Established planning days to ensure development of quality outcomes Satisfaction of model is continually explored based on the above practices CCAC Managers aligned with all congregate settings in order to escalate any issues in real time
70 Benefits Seniors are navigated to appropriate health services by leveraging existing system structure of CCAC Utilize centralized function to implementation and navigation that ensures efficiencies and better quality in providing services and monitoring of service providers One stop source of information for program options for seniors and other stakeholders Reduced delay in access to services
71 Benefits Continued Individualized plan of care for seniors involved in services from a care team who is proactively meeting their needs Preventative approach to educating on the multi factoral elements of falls prevention by leveraging use of interprofessional resources in neighbourhoods Evaluation and outcome measurement is strengthened as a critical mass of locations exist with a consistent approach to the model of care Sharing of best practices to create a Community of Practice among providers in Central West LHIN
