Overview

• Canadian Health System • OECD-Comparing Spain, Canada, Other

• Background CPSI • Concluding Remarks/Questions

2

Canadian Population in 2006 was at 32.5 Million

Canadian health-care spending for 2007 will reach $160.1 billion.

Public-sector health care spending forecast projected to reach 70.6%.

Private-sector health-care spending forecast projected to reach 29.4%.

Canadian Health System Key Differences Highlighted

• one fully socialized health care system • Federal government funds the provincial government

as long as they abide by the Canada Health Act whichexplicitly prohibits end user billing for procedures covered through the publicly funded system

• All provinces except Ontario have "mature" Regions • These are vertically and horizontally fully integrated

health and health care under one organization • Focuses as much on population as individual health

Canadian Government Involvement

Central structural difference is in health insurance

Alliance Programmes

Canadian Patient Safety Institute Mission

To provide national leadership in building and

advancing a safer Canadian health system

Vision We envision a Canadian health system where:

• Patients, providers, governments and others work together to build and advance a safer health system;

• Providers take pride in their ability to deliver the safest and highest quality of care possible; and

• Every Canadian in need of healthcare can be confident that the care they receive is the safest in the world.

8

Patient Safety: Barriers to Action

• Access is more urgent in Canada

• Shortages of clinical professionals

• Concern about liability

• Jurisdictional conflicts

• Delays in building the Electronic Health Record

• Culture of patient safety is lacking

9

A Culture of Safety 31,033 Pilots, Surgeons, Nurses and Residents Surveyed*

*Sexton JB, Thomas EJ, Helmreich RL, Error, stress and teamwork in medicine and aviation: crosssectional surveys. BrMedJour, 3-18-2000.

% Positive Responses from: Pilots Medical Is there a negative impact of fatigue on your performance?

74% 30%

Do you reject advice from juniors? 3% 45%

Human Error – the New View

The point of an investigation is not to find where people went wrong.

It is to understand why their assessments and actions made sense at the time.

Human Error – the New View

A Systems Approach “The systems approach is not about

changing the human condition but

rather the conditions under

which humans work.”

Education

Governance for Patient Safety

• National leadership, coordination and collaboration with current provincial/territorial and regional initiatives

• Co-commissioned research - partnership with CHSRF

• “Effective Governance for Quality and Patient Safety in Canadian Healthcare Organizations” (Baker, Denis, Pomey & MacIntosh Murray, 2009)

• Development of a framework and supporting tools, resources and education to assist boards in their understanding of and efforts to improve patient safety

21 21

Education

Education

Simulation GOAL: • To establish a national coordinating group

to promote and endorse simulation andprovide a foundation for collaboration (or:“framework for the sharing of resources”)

• To facilitate the development of a national simulation strategy for healthcare throughfocused collaboration with stakeholders

22

Education

Halifax Conferences • Annual National Patient Safety Conference

Patient Safety Officer Course- One week intense education/training session

Patient Safety Competencies • First edition released September 25, 2008.

Activities for dissemination and stakeholder engagement are underway

23

Research

• Over 60 research and demonstration projects have been funded in the last three years, these will form the basis for new knowledge of Canadian patient safety challenges and solutions

• Work Collaboratively with Other Research Funding Groups

• Research Dollars Spent to date: $5.8Million

24

Research

Building Capacity Through Research

• Development of Patient Safety background papers to identify the current state of knowledge, future research priorities, key issues, and strategies and opportunities for action and improvement:

• Mental Health Emergency Medical Services

• Primary Health Care

• Home Care

• Long-Term Care

25 25

Interventions & Programs

Patients for Patient Safety:

Why?

• More to offer than simply the ‘victims’ story of tragic medical error.

• Consumers offer the richest resource of information related to medical errors as many have witnessedevery detail of systems failures from beginning to end.

• Patients want to know the truth when things go wrongand be treated with honesty and openness rather than face a closed door of denial

26

Health-care providers’ compliance with hand hygiene practices is less than 40% on average

27

Interventions & Programs

Canada’s Hand Hygiene Campaign

Hand Hygiene Campaign Goals: • Promote the importance of hand hygiene in reducing the

occurrence of healthcare associated infections • Respond to the needs of healthcare organizations for

capacity building and leadership development by creating and providing them with tools to help promote good hand hygiene

SHN MRSA Intervention Goals: • Enable healthcare organizations and caregivers to

prevent patient harm from MRSA • Reduce MRSA infection rates

28

Interventions & Programs

Canada

• 33 million people • 10 interventions + 2

pilots • 1035 teams enrolled • 80% of acute care

hospitals enrolled • All regional health

organizations outside of Quebec enrolled

Aim • Reduce adverse events

by 40-100% according to intervention

Tools & Resources Event Analysis

• The French adaptation for the Canadian Root Cause Analysis Framework is completed and Failure Mode Effect Analysis is in progress

Electronic Health Record • Plans are underway to examine the role of EHR as it

relates to the process of medication reconciliation

Canadian Disclosure Guidelines • Are available on the CPSI website.

34

Tools & Resources Canadian Adverse Event Reporting and Learning

System (CAERLS) • The CAERLS Consultation Paper is available on the CPSI

website. Planning for consultation meetings to be held throughout Canada are currently underway.

WHO “Safe Surgery Saves Lives” • An in-country working group has been assembled to adapt

the Safe Surgery Checklist for use in Canada

Human Factors • Development of educational strategies is being

contemplated to assist organizations to better understand this important area of patient safety

35

Other Challenges and Key Issues

• Develop other indicators • Build patient safety expert capacity • Collaborate and Increase Engagement (F/P/T,

“patient safety” agencies/organizations) • Keep patient safety on the national agenda;

inform the public, patients, providers, policy-and decision-makers

• Misdiagnosis • Culture of Patient Safety

36

Summary

Patient Safety

• CPSI is “leading without owning” resulting in significant and measurable patient safety improvements by many Healthcare organizations in just three years of operations

• Safer Healthcare Now! is a pan-Canadian success story – “changing the face of safety in the Canadian healthcare system”

• The success of CPSI will continue to be assessed with the emergence of Hospital Standardized Mortality Ratios and other measures

we cannot help,

there are none

we should harm...”
