We are currently in the realm of large regional health care delivery systems yet we want to bring service closer to home. How will we evaluate the success of these models? Services closer to home. How do we measure success? Metrics: speak to government they want data. ALC rates – percentage points in acute care vs home Re-admit rates Survival rates $ cost point, $ cost RX, # of points treated/ dollar. Prevention as an innovator. Contracted homecare services: Lower cost than acute care. Different costs and cost drivers across the country Preventive Care: Nutrition / wearable tech AI Guidance / Glucose monitor B/P Leverage Pharmacies Have infrastructure Role of nurse practitioners in increasing (prevention trained) Sick care: Implantable sensors Identify trends Robot caretakers Air B&B homecare (England) Medical school (disease based) B. Does the future hold a place for a scale shift within health care delivery models? How do you envision this change, given new thresholds in information technology, interactive technology and virtual reality, etc... Questions #2 RESEARCH & TEACHING A. Teaching models and research streams can be seen as silo’d from patient care through long established methodologies embedded in culture. Are these current models providing the strongest context for innovation? Research embedded Smaller platform Teaching and research funding within healthcare is difficult Healthcare Authority needs to implement innovations Partnerships to create innovations and implement are needed It’s a risk to implement research challenge internally to improve broader audience Define and develop small groups for improvement with collective goals at a high level Global sharing B.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS – 2019 Program: GENERAL PATHOLOGY Specialty/Field Questions: 1. a) What are some strengths about your specialty? What draws and keeps people in your specialty? • The opportunity to understand the nature of disease in an in-depth way that isn’t achieved in any other specialty. You get to practice scientific diagnostic medicine over a broad range of subjects and you have a fair degree of control over your schedule. You are very much a part of the team taking care of the patient (it just isn’t as obvious!), and this is becoming even more apparent in the era of precision medicine. • Although there is limited direct contact with patients, there is a great deal of contact with a variety of clinicians outside the laboratory as well as with physician, PhD, and technical staff colleagues within the laboratory. We get satisfaction from the interactions we have with others, and knowing that we are helping a clinician take the next step in diagnosing or treating a patient. The stereotypical image of the hermit- like pathologist who stays in their office and never talks to anyone is rapidly disappearing in today’s pathology practice. b) What are some common complaints about your specialty? • There is limited direct clinical contact – you’ll never have an office full of patients who regard you as their doctor and most pathologists have a hospital-based practice which can limit professional autonomy. • You often have to sit/stand at a microscope and/or computer a lot, so sometimes you need to get creative about staying active during the day.

    HEALTH CARE MARKET Foothills Medical Centre | Calgary, Alberta PROJECT: Foothills Medical Centre | AREA: Morgue, In-Patient Pharmacy, Respirator Satellite Processing PRODUCTS: Stonshield HRI, Stonseal GS7 Foothills Medical Centre (FMC) is the largest hospital in Alberta. It is one of Canada’s most recognized medical facilities and Alberta’s leading hospital, providing advanced healthcare service to over two million people from Calgary, southern Alberta, southeastern British Columbia, and southern Saskatchewan. THE CHALLENGE: The Foothills Medical Centre required a safe, slip resistant flooring solution for their morgue area. The new seamless flooring system also needed to be easy to clean and offer protection against impact, and abrasion. THE STONHARD SOLUTION: Stonhard’s seamless, safe and easy to clean flooring systems were the idea solution for this facility. More than 3,600 square feet of Stonshield HRI and Stonseal GS7 were applied in this hospital, along with 430 linear feet of cove base. Stonshield HRI is a durable flooring system with a decorative, slip resistant surface. It offers superior impact resistance and is textured for safety. This seamless system has no joints or seams to harbour dirt and bacteria and resists attack by most acids and alkalies. Stonseal GS7 is a general service coating designed to improve cleanability, and increase stain and abrasion resistance. www.stonhard.ca | 800.263.3112 Expect performance from start to finish. From design specifications, to project management, to the final walk through, Stonhard works with you to ensure complete satisfaction on every project. A turnkey approach means you’ll receive high quality products and installations consistently. From people, to products and services, quality and dependability are a constant with Stonhard.

  • Quality Assurance Program for Anatomical Pathologists Printed Copies Are Uncontrolled
    Quality Assurance Assessment Program for Anatomical Pathologists This provincial best practice document is being developed in response to the Cochrane Report recommending a peer review program for pathology with results reported to the Health Authority Quality Committee, BC’s Agency for Pathology and Laboratory Medicine and the Diagnostic Accreditation Program, when appropriate. The program has been developed with input from the provincial Anatomic Pathology Working Group, along with review of current provincial practices and peer reviewed publications, specifically the Pan- Canadian Quality Assurance Recommendations for Interpretive Pathology. The program is designed to be proactive where quality activities are embedded directly into the clinical practice of anatomic pathologists via the Laboratory Information System (LIS), allowing standardized quality assurance data to be captured, reported, reviewed and discrepancies reported for follow up corrective action through standardized quality improvement processes. Objective: Develop a standardized approach to Quality Assurance (QA) in interpretive pathology for use by all anatomic pathologists. Capture pathologist QA activities, and provide meaningful statistics to individual pathologists, the Laboratory quality committee, health authority medical administration and the Agency to allow year over year comparisons by pathologist, facility, HA and comparisons across the province. To build a provincial anatomic pathology culture based on sustainable high quality diagnostic services to enable the enhancement of patient safety. To ensure the public have confidence in British Columbia’s anatomic pathology service regardless of geographic location or jurisdiction. Goal: For the activities related to all anatomic pathologists caseload be involved in a review, which is measurable and comparable to a standard baseline. Where appropriate, reviews will target surgical pathology, cytology and autopsy services, including all related ancillary testing.
