Preventive Health Services: Elderly, Disabled and Mental Health NursingMission
Educating and assisting high risk elderly and disabled individuals to maintain or improve their quality of life.Vision
High risk elderly, disabled, and individuals with mental health issues live safe, independent and dignified lives in the community.
IntroductionLetter from the Director of Preventive Health Services
Olmsted County Public Health Services – Preventive Health Services division remains committed to supporting the aging and disabled citizens of OlmstedCounty to live safe, independent and dignified lives in our community. Throughout our long history of supporting the community our mission has beenwoven into the fabric of our divisional culture. We support our clients through programs where we meet directly with them, in their homes, to assesstheir needs and co-develop individualized, client centric plans of care. With the foundational plan of care in place, we work with our clients, at their levelof need, to connect with services and make lifestyle changes to progress towards their goals. Assisting us in our mission are our many community partnersthat work directly with our clients to provide quality care and coordinate the services our clients need to be successful.
During this past year we have focused on reorganizing ourselves to better serve our growing clientele. These changes have included developing an intaketeam, and teams focused on one or two health plans. This specialization has assisted staff to increase their focus in fewer areas resulting in improvementsto their targeted areas of practice. We have also worked with the state of Minnesota to implement their new MnCHOICES assessment software, improvedour partnership with Olmsted County Adult Community Services by transitioning onto a single case management software, and streamlined ourdocumentation code sets as part of the ICD-9 to ICD-10 conversion process.
We are excited to continue building upon our robust history as we work with our community partners to embrace the opportunities change is providing.

Case Management/Care CoordinationPublic Health Nurses help clients access needed services (medical, social and other services as required), assure continuity of care, coordinate the service plan andmonitor the delivery of services provided. The goal is to assist clients to remain safe and as independent as possible in the community setting. PHN’s also work withindividuals on Minnesota Senior Health Options (MSHO) and will complete an assessment of a client’s medical, social/environmental and mental health needs anddevelop an interdisciplinary care plan with a preventive focus to meet their needs as determined during the assessment. One component of this care plan may includeassisting the client with planning and writing an Advanced Directive. With the care plan in place the PHN assures continuity of care and coordination by meeting withthe client on a regular basis to evaluate status and modify the care plan as needed. Client contact is required face to face annually with phone interaction every sixmonths or more frequently if the client’s needs warrant increased intervention.
Personal Care AttendantThe Personal Care Attendant (PCA) program provides assistance with activities of daily living for disabled individuals and individuals with special healthcare needs livingindependently in the community and requiring assistance and are enrolled in Medical Assistance. This program assesses the individual to determine eligibility andappropriate level of care and provide information on care options. Assessment visits are completed annually unless a client has documented evidence from a doctorindicating their physical needs have changed and an early assessment is needed.
Assertive Community TreatmentAssertive Community Treatment (ACT) is a team-based treatment model that provides multidisciplinary, flexible treatment and support to people with mental illness24/7. ACT is based around the idea that people receive better care when their mental health care providers work together. ACT team members help the personaddress every aspect of their life, whether it be medication, therapy social support, employment or housing. ACT staff include a psychiatrist, public health nurses,social workers, a substance abuse specialist, a mental health professional and employment specialists. ACT clients are seen at least weekly by a member of the team.For clients needing more intense intervention, visits may be completed one to two times per day.
Long Term Care ConsultationThe Long Term Care Consultation (LTCC) program assists individuals with long term or chronic care needs to make choices about long term care.The LTCC program’s goal is to:
Provide information and early assistance Connect people with special needed services Maintain people in their own homes Support choice and informed decision making Support caregivers
A public health nurse or social worker will visit with the client in their home or long term care facility to help identify the type of program they might want or need andhelp plan those services. There is no charge for this visit regardless of a person’s income or assets or eligibility for other services or funding. This assessment visitoccurs approximately 20 days after referral to the county. Most people have their needs addressed in one visit, but another may be required if the client’s conditionchanges before eligibility is completed or if more information is needed by the assessor.

Skilled Nursing Facility Care CoordinationSkilled Nursing Facility Care Coordination (SNF CC) is a service that is provided toMSHO and MSC+ seniors who are enrolled in Medica or UCare products. Therole of the SNF care coordinator is to assist clients and familymembers/responsible parties understand their insurance benefits to makeinformed decisions about their health. The care coordinator is available forquestions and to facilitate communication between the appropriate health planrepresentatives, when needed. The care coordinator will also follow up with theclient after a hospital stay to ensure their plan of care continues to meet theirneeds. In addition, if returning home becomes an option, the care coordinatorwill assist in that transition process. Clients are visited by the care coordinatorwithin 30 days of admission or enrollment to the health plan. Consultation canoccur at any time but minimally every six months.
Special Needs Basic CareSpecial Needs Basic Care (SNBC) is a voluntary managed care program for peoplewith disabilities ages 18 through 64 who have Medical Assistance. The role ofthe SNBC care coordinator is to assist clients understand their insurance benefitsto make informed decisions about their health. The care coordinator is availablefor questions and to facilitate communication between the appropriate healthplan representatives, when needed. The care coordinator will also follow upwith the client after a hospital stay to ensure their plan of care continues tomeet their needs as well as assist with making referrals for other neededservices covered by insurance or Medical Assistance benefits. The carecoordinator contacts the client within 30 days of enrollment into the program,with outreach required every 90 days thereafter. The program is voluntary so ifthe client is stable they may choose to decline face to face visits.
Community Care TeamCommunity Care Teams (CCT) are community-based interdisciplinary care teamsthat include primary care and public health providers to help clients managetheir chronic health conditions. The goal of the CCT is to wrap critical health andcommunity service around the client and their family to address needs that aremost important to them. The CCT is a collaboration between Mayo Clinic,Olmsted Medical Center and Olmsted County Public Health. Client interactionincludes a home visit, followed by an interdisciplinary team meeting and 12weeks of intervention. The PHN may complete additional home visits as neededduring this time. The program is concluded by another interdisciplinary meetingat the end of 12 weeks.

From 2011 to 2015, Preventive Health Services PHNs had an average of 752 Personal Care Attendant (PCA) contacts with 608 clients annually. During this same time period, there was a 26% decrease in clients (640; 476) and a 68% decrease in contacts (1,377; 436). The staffing dedicated to the PCA Program has decreased from 1.04 FTE in 2011 to .83 FTE in 2015. In 2015, any children that were open to developmental disability case management or waiver services along with PCA services, were only being followed by the case manager and not the PCA assessor. This change resulted in in a loss of approximately 250 PCA cases.

From 2011 to 2015, Preventive Health Services PHNs had an average of 676 contacts with 329 Long Term Care Consultation (LTCC) clients annually.During this same time period, there was a 47% decrease in clients (424; 223). From 2011 (619) to 2014 (320), there was a 48% decrease in contacts,but from 2014 (320) to 2015 (1,043) there was a 225% increase in contacts. There was an average .79 FTE dedicated to this program. The FTEincreased from .37 in 2014 to .79 in 2015. This dramatic increase in client contacts in 2015 was multifactorial: the use of a new assessment tool (MNChoices) required more time and contact with clients and the addition of the PCA component of the assessment, as well as the increase in complexityof the clients assessed.

Client Demographics
ReferralsFrom 2011 to 2015, OCPHS received an average of 561 referralsannually for LTCC services. The number of referrals decreased 67%from 2011 (759) to 2015 (254). In 2015, the Department of HumanServices separated aging and disability services. In May of that year,PHS began the use of an assessment team for all referrals that consistedof two PHNs and two social workers. These changes resulted in allreferrals under age 65 going to the disability group and onlyapproximately half of aging referrals coming to PHS (the remaining wentto Community Services Aging Division).
The majority (68%) of LTCC clients are 51 years and older; 62% arefemale and 38% male. The majority (80%) are white, followed by black(12%), with 3% being Hispanic.

The Community Care Team (CCT) focuses on the intersection of medical and social needs of patients and is a mechanism for helping primary care patients whose psychosocial problems are impacting their ability to participate in and benefit from medical services and treatments.
A community care team is a group of primary care and community/public health experts that work together with patients and family members/support person, if available, to develop and implement creative solutions to complex patient problems. The CCT links adult patients with chronic medical conditions with community services to support primary care efforts to assist patients with self-management of chronic medical conditions.
The purpose of the CCT is to identify barriers to engaging in self-management (such as with finances, housing, social isolation etc.) and to recommend solutions to remove barriers to increase care effectiveness. Patients receive an in-home assessment by a public health nurse and community health worker. The patient, along with any support, meet with four members of the team where an action plan is developed to address their needs and to increase their community-based support system if necessary.

Conclusions and Next Steps
Conclusions Next Steps
As we look ahead we see our work impacted by the aging babyboomers, declining health of our clients, and stagnation of the economyprecipitating changes to current models of care. We are working withthe state and federal government on piloting models that keep ourclients in their homes as long as possible while moving us towardsAccountable Communities of Health (ACH) models of healthcare wherewe share accountability for outcomes instead of being paid for services.We welcome these changes and are implementing strategies tostrengthen our relationships with community providers, developingvalue add relationships, improving our technology, improving ourdocumentation around outcomes and return on investment, trainingour partners as they develop their ACH programs, and makingimprovements to targeted population interventions.
Preventive Health Services Tactical Plan
Current Strategic Priorities: Flat funding to serve greater numbers of clients – improve
efficiencies enabling staff to cover larger case load State mandated systems don’t support work efficiencies Excessive stakeholder requirements for documentation –
work with health plans Ensure screening consistency with the elimination of dual
screening with social worker and public health nurse –educate to reduce incidence of fraud, waste and abuse
Develop strategies that address cultural barriers that negatively impact client outcomes and cause increased staff frustration

During this past year we have focused on reorganizing ourselves tobetter serve our growing clientele. These changes have includeddeveloping an intake team, and teams focused on one or two healthplans. This specialization has assisted staff to increase their focus infewer areas resulting in improvements to their targeted areas ofpractice. We have also worked with the state of Minnesota toimplement their new MnCHOICES assessment software, improved ourpartnership with Olmsted County Adult Community Services bytransitioning onto a single case management software, and streamlinedour documentation code sets as part of the ICD-9 to ICD-10 conversionprocess.
