• Today, 1 in 9 Albertans is over 65 years of age• In 25 years, 1 in 5 Albertans will be a senior• 47% of Alberta seniors have a health condition that
limits their everyday activities• Alberta seniors visit emergency departments at twice
the rate of non-seniors• Alberta seniors are admitted to an inpatient unit at 5
times the rate of non-seniors.• Dementia and delirium are major contributors to LOS,
ALC days and admissions to LTC

Seniors Health SCN Platform 1
Aging Brain Care:
Aging Brain Care Pathway incorporates:• Healthy Brain Aging• Prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and
management of co-morbidity• Advance care planning and issues for
individuals and caregivers• EOL care
![Page 14: “Challenging Behaviours”, or is it Behaviours that Challenge us? Presentation by Duncan Robertson Senior Medical Director Seniors’ Health SCN to Challenging.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e035503460f94aeec2b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Seniors Health SCN Platform 2
Healthy Aging and Seniors Care:
• Health Promotion and Prevention• Development of a Care Pathway to guide
citizens, families and caregivers, practitioners and others on the patient journey of the frail elder across the care continuum.
![Page 15: “Challenging Behaviours”, or is it Behaviours that Challenge us? Presentation by Duncan Robertson Senior Medical Director Seniors’ Health SCN to Challenging.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e035503460f94aeec2b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Initial Project: Elder Friendly Care 1/2
What is the problem? • One-third of frail seniors develop new
functional disabilities in hospitals as a result of delirium, immobility, falls, prolonged catheter use and infections.
• Result is longer LOS, discharges to higher level of care, loss of independence and reduced well-being.
![Page 16: “Challenging Behaviours”, or is it Behaviours that Challenge us? Presentation by Duncan Robertson Senior Medical Director Seniors’ Health SCN to Challenging.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e035503460f94aeec2b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
Initial Project: Elder Friendly Care 2/2
What is the solution?• Multiple interventions to prevent unintended
outcomes of hospitalization
• Start in hospital sector and move to other parts of continuum
![Page 17: “Challenging Behaviours”, or is it Behaviours that Challenge us? Presentation by Duncan Robertson Senior Medical Director Seniors’ Health SCN to Challenging.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e035503460f94aeec2b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Elder Friendly Care Strategies
• Delirium Prevention, Detection & Management• Preventing Functional Decline (through mobility)• Continence Management (reduced use of catheters)• Nutrition & Hydration• Comfort Rounds (being evaluated in Calgary Zone)
– Scheduled nursing rounds at least q2h to improve inpatient care safety and quality
– Includes communication, toileting, positioning, nutrition, hydration, & pain management
![Page 18: “Challenging Behaviours”, or is it Behaviours that Challenge us? Presentation by Duncan Robertson Senior Medical Director Seniors’ Health SCN to Challenging.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e035503460f94aeec2b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
Why Elder Friendly Care?• AHS/AH Priority - HQCA Ministerial Directive to reduce
ALC days and occupancy in hospitals; Destination Home • Builds on successful delirium screening component of
Bone & Joint Hip Fracture Pathway• Builds on Zone priorities:
- Calgary Zone: Elder Friendly Care Project in hospitals already underway; Destination Home in Home Care- Central Zone: priority on improving elder care in Red Deer
Regional Hospital- Edmonton Zone: alignment with Care Transformation Project
in acute care hospitals

Elder Friendly Care - Appropriate Use of Catheters
What is the problem? • Unnecessary use of catheters leads to high
infection rates, antimicrobial resistance, immobility, delirium, falls, longer LOS and poor patient experience
• Risk is highest for seniors in emergency and inpatient units, especially those with dementia
![Page 20: “Challenging Behaviours”, or is it Behaviours that Challenge us? Presentation by Duncan Robertson Senior Medical Director Seniors’ Health SCN to Challenging.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e035503460f94aeec2b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
Elder Friendly Care - Appropriate Use of Catheters
What is the solution?
• Guidelines for insertion of catheters (“7 reasons only”)
• Nurse-led protocol for removal, checked daily
• Reminder system
![Page 21: “Challenging Behaviours”, or is it Behaviours that Challenge us? Presentation by Duncan Robertson Senior Medical Director Seniors’ Health SCN to Challenging.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e035503460f94aeec2b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Philippus Theophrastus Aureolus Bombastus von Hohenheim (1493-1591 alias Paracelsus )
Alle Ding' sind Gift und nichts ohn' Gift; allein die Dosis macht, dass ein Ding kein Gift ist.
“all things are poison and nothing is without poison, only the dose permits something not to be poisonous."

Initial Project :Appropriate Use of Antipsychotics
What is the problem?
• Over 1 in 4 residents in Long-Term Care (LTC) facilities in Alberta
receive antipsychotics for management of behaviours
associated with dementia
• Evidence exists for harm when used
inappropriately and for long periods of time – including loss of
mobility, loss of cognition, stroke, falls, death
Prevalence of Antipsychotic Drug Use in Absence of Psychotic and Related Conditions (%) - April 2011 - March 2012
North Zone Edmonton Zone
Central Zone
Calgary Zone South Zone Alberta Rest of
Canada
34.4 27.3 33.3 26.4 35.4 28.1 32.5

US Initiatives on Antipsychotic Use in Care Facilities 1/2
• 1987 OBRA Act (Implemented 1990)• Appropriate Diagnosis• Target Symptoms• 24-Hour Dose Guidance• Monitoring• Concurrent Behavioral treatment• Attempt to Reduce d/c in 6 Months
http://www.rimed.org/medhealthri/2010-12/2010-12-372.pdf
![Page 24: “Challenging Behaviours”, or is it Behaviours that Challenge us? Presentation by Duncan Robertson Senior Medical Director Seniors’ Health SCN to Challenging.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e035503460f94aeec2b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24
US Initiatives on Antipsychotic Use in Care Facilities 2/2
• 2007 Iteration of OBRA– If used, must document 2 attempts at GDR* at least 1
month apart in 1 year– If used over 1 year must document:
• Worsening of Sx when D/C• MD opinion why no further D/C attempt
• 2005 FDA “Black Box Warning”
* Gradual dose reduction
![Page 25: “Challenging Behaviours”, or is it Behaviours that Challenge us? Presentation by Duncan Robertson Senior Medical Director Seniors’ Health SCN to Challenging.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e035503460f94aeec2b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
Appropriate Use of AntipsychoticsIn Collaboration with A&MH SCN
What is the solution?
- Use antipsychotics only when required according to guidelines
- Identify non-pharmacological approaches for challenging behaviours
- Educate on behaviour management practices- Engage families, government and advocacy groups
![Page 26: “Challenging Behaviours”, or is it Behaviours that Challenge us? Presentation by Duncan Robertson Senior Medical Director Seniors’ Health SCN to Challenging.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649e035503460f94aeec2b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
Why Appropriate Use of Antipsychotics?
Alignment:
• Alberta Health Continuing Care Health Service Standards• Accreditation Canada Standards• American Geriatric Society’s Updated Criteria (2012) for
Potentially Inappropriate Medication Use in the Older Adults.
• AHS Seniors Health Medication Management Initiative and Cognitive Impairment Strategy
• Public, government and media concerns• Zone Priorities: All Zones Participating
