Analysis Summary: The NB Health Council (NBHC) conducts an Acute Care Patient Experience Survey every three years. Horizon
has also conducted interim surveys to guide improvement efforts. Horizon’s next internal survey will be conducted in November 2017, allowing for time to implement appropriate interventions.
Following a review engagement, Horizon is relaunching the priorities for Patient and Family Centred Care (PFCC). There will be renewed focus on providing education and communication on PFCC to all levels of staff. A comprehensive workplan will be developed over the summer for review by the Executive Leadership Team.
Patient engagement through patient advisory committees will continue to develop to ensure the contributing patients as well as the organization benefit from the experience.
Horizon conducted a pilot survey of ambulatory care services within clinics at the SJRH. The results will be disseminated to inform plans for Quality and Safety initiatives. Regional implementation of the survey will be undertaken in the winter of 2017.

Communication White Board
The project is well underway. We are piloting white boards on 4 inpatient units. Initial feedback is good and we are incorporating suggested changes within the pilot. It is estimated that all sites will be up and running by July. Nursing staff are receiving training on SMART goals to help them work with patients and families in setting goals which pertain to their condition.
Proactive Patient Rounding
Nursing focus groups were conducted in April & May to obtain staff feedback on proactive rounding. Currently identifying actions to be taken for improvements, based on 2016 New Brunswick Health Council data and staff feedback.

Official Languages Audit Results – Ability to Continue in French
Analysis Summary: There are no new results available as audits are yet to resume. Active Offer Dialogue sessions continue to be provided. However, it is expected that these will slow down during July and August due to employee vacation. The plan is to restart sessions in September with a focus on getting a large number done in September and October so that audits may resume later in November. Results could then be available for end of Q3 of the current fiscal year 2017-2018. SOMIA Initiatives:
Priority Initiatives/Actions Status Comments
Execute strategies to improve provision of services in language of choice
Active Offer Dialogue Sessions: So far, 12 sessions have been recorded and feedback received. Target number of sessions is set at 105. (**Reasoning for target: if 35 of the 50+ facilitators commit to facilitating 3 sessions this fiscal year, we can provide a total of 105 sessions.)
Café de Paris initiative in Moncton is set to launch in July 2017. Language tutor/mentor scheduled to start on July 10th, 2017. This initiative continues to capture nationwide attention and interest. Two members of the Official Languages Team have already met twice with members from the IWK and the Nova Scotia Health Authority to present the initiative and to provide support. A visit to PEI is scheduled for June 21st, 2017. Horizon is currently working on a model document/brochure that will help share our good work and also recognize Horizon’s work. This is done in partnership with Société Santé et Mieux-être en français du Nouveau-Brunswick.
Strategic Objective: Provide me with the best possible care experience
Owner: Margaret Melanson
Reporting Frequency: Semi-annual
Definition: Audits are conducted to assess employees’ compliance with providing an active offer (greeting in both official languages) in person and over the telephone. The audits also assess how effectively employees are able to provide service in either language. The measure reflected here is the ability to continue providing service, in person, in either official language, in the four regional facilities. Supplementary information is available to report on the active offer (over the phone & in person) as well as the ability to continue in French over the phone. To obtain data which is more statistically solid on a unit/department level, the audit methodology has been adjusted. Audits will be conducted semi-annually and results will be published at the end of Q1 and Q3 each fiscal year. This will allow Official Languages to better target improvement efforts and initiatives.

Analysis Summary: A total of 51,074 observations have been completed in FY 2016-17 utilizing a standardized audit tool which aligns with national hand hygiene auditing practices. The audit function is an opportunity to promote the importance of hand hygiene practices by providing real-time teaching moments and on-going encouragement. Compliance signage is posted on each patient care unit providing monthly results. Physician hand hygiene compliance rates will be posted in areas visible to Physicians and work with specific unit areas, and staff / physician groups is ongoing to reinforce best clinical practice.
Based on audit results, efforts will be focused on improving compliance in areas that have been consistently lower than the Horizon average.

ER Wait Time (Triage level 3 at 5 Regional Hospitals)
Horizon
Target
Analysis Summary: ER wait times continue to be longest at the Moncton Hospital, followed by DECRH and SJRH. DECRH and SJRH have seen significant improvement over last fiscal year; however Moncton has seen an increase in their triage level 3 wait time.
The primary area of concern is Moncton which continues to experience congestion issues. This makes improvement efforts difficult to maintain. The Moncton ER Redirect initiative is not yet showing the desired impact on the overall average wait time because it applies to a small number of patients.

Analysis Summary: Chronic disease hospitalization rate has remained relatively stable.
We are beginning to see promising results from the INSPIRED program. Hospitalized patients enrolled in INSPIRED are a referral source for EMP Rehab and Reablement for COPD patients over 65 years of age.
Development of a Public Awareness Campaign is underway in partnership with Vitalité. The campaign will be developed to build awareness of COPD as a chronic disease, reduce the stigma and identify the toll this disease makes on patients and families. This campaign will be launched with targeted funding from the Province before the end of the fiscal year.

Strategic Objective: Enhance Community Based Services
Owner: Jean Daigle
Reporting Frequency: Quarterly
Definition: Youth, aged 19 less 1 day and younger, who are diagnosed with depression or anxiety should receive services within a targeted wait time of 90 days. This measure tracks the percentage of these patients who received the service within the target wait time in the Moncton area where the wait time has been an issue. These numbers include youths waiting for psychiatrist and/or therapist. (Note: in Q2, 2015/16, this measure was revised to state the wait time met rather than not met.)
Baseline Target Stretch Actual Indicator
62% 85% 90% 40% (FY16/17, Q4)
Analysis Summary: The acuity of depression or anxiety at the time of assessment impacts how quickly a client is seen. Depression and anxiety are often assessed as medium priority. High priority clients (for depression or any condition) are being seen within target times. However medium priority clients tend to wait longer.
Two new social worker and other vacant positions were filled. We were able to assign the 80 cases that were waiting beyond the target wait time. The waiting list decreased from 120 to 57 as of June 2017.
Integrated Service Delivery (ISD) is a partnership with Education, Public Safety and Social Development to develop and implement appropriate child and youth centered interventions to ensure the positive growth and development. We expect this to have a positive impact on service in the Horizon Moncton Area. We are expecting that in the fall of 2017 ISD will be implemented, with the addition of six clinical coordinators and ten clinicians. With the addition of these positions, we will be meeting the target by winter 2018.

Wait time for Electrophysiology (in days)
Horizon
Target
Analysis Summary: Wait times for access to services are tracked from the time of initial consultation with the Electrophysiolgist until the time the procedure is completed. The significant reduction in wait times for elective electrophysiology studies is the result of limiting the number of new, non-urgent referrals seen in consultation. This action was necessary due to our limited MD resources in Electrophysiology and consequently enabled the program to address the backlog of elective cases waiting in the queue. There is now a significant list of patients waiting for initial consultation; however, all are categorized as non-urgent.
All cases that are urgent in nature are prioritized to the top of the queue and are accessing services within reasonable timelines.
The official opening of the new device lab was held in November. The laboratory was fully operational in January with minor additions still required. Recruitment for a second Electrophysiologist was successful with a new physician starting on August 14, 2017. Once the new Electrophysiologist is in place we will revisit our approach to seeing non-urgent referrals.

Strategic Objective: Enhance Tertiary Care
Owner: Geri Geldart
Reporting Frequency: Quarterly
Definition: Patients who await cardiac electrophysiology are assessed as urgent, high, intermediate or low risk. For intermediate and low risk patients the target wait time is 90 days. This measure focuses on the average wait time for intermediate and low risk patients. The measure reflects patients who have had procedures completed. Other patients, who remain on the wait list, may be waiting longer.

frame. Patients in the Miramichi area receive their first treatments at the Moncton hospital.
Two chairs were added in Saint John. The new pharmacy positions were filled and the camera equipment was installed. These changes improved patient flow and allow us to treat more patients each day.
Space remains the primary constraint in Saint John. We are still challenged to provide supportive therapy in a timely manner. SOMIA Initiatives:

Enhancement of Oncology Service
Budget for enhancement was approved as part of the 2016-2017 Regional Health and Business Plan. Recruitment is complete. Additional resources will address workload issues in several key areas, but it is unlikely to affect the wait time for chemo as space remains the critical bottleneck.

Analysis Summary: The new data collection process allows for more accurate reporting of ALC patients. Our ability to consistently identify the ALC patients and the barriers for discharge will enable us to identify root causes for delays and focused initiatives to address these. Vitalité Health Network has expressed interest in using our model for data collection. This would improve consistency across the province. ALC remains a significant cause of hospital congestion, particularly in Moncton and Miramichi. SOMIA Initiatives:

Cost per Capita
Horizon
Target
Analysis Summary: This indicator continues to run below target for Q4. The target has increased 3.3% over the previous year as a result of the incorporation of three major union contracts which were settled during the previous year, an increase in budgeted maintenance activity, continuation of retirement allowance payout program, and normal inflationary changes. Performance in 2016-2017 follows the trend of previous years. Costs are below budget in all expense categories except benefits and other supplies. Higher than anticipated WorksafeNB costs, account for the variance in benefit costs. Other supplies are over as the result of DTI charges, for construction related work, performed on our behalf over the entire year. We continue to have significant savings on salary, drug and surgical supplies costs. SOMIA Initiatives: None at this time

Analysis Summary: The results are up slightly in Q4, following normal annual trends due to influenza season. In January 2017 it was announced that Horizon and Vitalité would begin to negotiate a final contract with the successful provider for the outsourcing of EVS, Food Services, Nutrition and Portering management. Past trends have identified that workforce adjustment activity announcements have a direct impact on sick usage. In addition, staff scheduling rotation challenges continue to have impacts. The draft Human Resources Strategic Plan includes a focus on Attendance Management. Initiatives are planned for the first half of fiscal 2017-2018. We expect these to have an impact on this indicator by Spring 2018. SOMIA Initiatives:

Target
Analysis Summary: Analysis Summary: The goal set out in the strategic plan is to allocate 12% of the total budget to community-based programs, an increase of 2% or approximately $23 million over 5 years. The 2016/17 Regional Health and Business Plan outlined a plan to increase community-based programs by $933,000 annualized over two years. In the current year there have been investments from new funding to enhance community services. It is important to note that our ability to redirect funding from current hospital based services to community services is difficult without approval to undertake healthcare system redesign. As such, this indicator will be modified for fiscal 2017-2018.

Target
Analysis Summary: The goal set out in the strategic plan is to increase the percent of expenditures allocated to tertiary care by 2% over 5 years. It is anticipated that expenditures will increase in the second half of the current year. Recruitment of specialists is currently under way and we anticipate increased investment in tertiary care in the second half of the current fiscal year as a result.
Increased investment in the NB Heart Centre is the first major targeted change to the funding in tertiary services. Overall expenditures are up over previous quarters in this measure. Costs in the NB Heart Centre, combined medical/surgical ICU continue to climb, and oncology has shown a slight increase as well. Total expenditure on tertiary care increased by 1.6% ($122,889,531 to $124,886,492) SOMIA Initiatives:

Dollars Saved Through Performance Excellence
Analysis Summary: Q4 was a strong quarter with several large projects reporting for the end of the year. Patient Flow initiatives, particularly around the Inspired Program tracked strong soft savings. The first two projects at the NB Heart Centre, in partnership with Medtronics began reporting monthly savings in Q4. The projects have resulted in increased throughput in the Operating rooms, generating soft savings from reduced wait times. Hard savings totalled $478,100 while soft savings from productivity improvements, cost avoidance and reduced waste resulted in over $3.8M for the year.

Analysis Summary: The last staff engagement survey was completed in 2014. The 2014 survey highlighted deficiencies in both the survey tool selected, and in the process followed. Major initiatives including revamp of the orientation program, introduction of values workshops, introduction of workplace violence program and creation of the Bravo! program have had a positive impact. A new engagement survey will be undertaken in the fall of 2017. Managers and staff have been engaged to provide input into the new Human Resources Strategic Plan. The plan will include focus on employee engagement. SOMIA Initiatives:
