We will invest in new operating suites at our Charlton and Stoney Creek Campuses to accommodate larger, emerging minimal access technologies. We will implement the latest breakthroughs in advanced nursing practices, especially those recognized as industry best practice. SJHH will also work with our partners to develop a regional, academic, state-of-the-art program for patients suffering from obesity and related issues. Specifically, we will: equip Operating Rooms with state-of-the-art technology, invest in new ORs at the Charlton Campus, expand Day Surgery Suites at the Stoney Creek Campus, implement a peri-operative information system. Clinical Quality - OPHTHAMOLOGY As our population ages, the number of Ontarians requiring eye surgery has more than doubled over the past decade. As the regional lead within our LHIN for eye medicine and eye surgery, SJHH will have a strong focus on eye diseases. Recently our Ophthalmology program has reached important milestones, including: the establishment of a regional eye centre at the Stoney Creek Campus, the establishment of the eye medicine & eye surgery residency program, a reduction of wait times for cataract surgery. Clinical Quality - CARDIAC CARE SJHH will partner with Hamilton Health Sciences in the development and establishment of an optimal care model for patients with cardiac disease. The model will integrate services for city hospitals and coordinate care with community cardiology and family practice. SJHH will provide diagnostic and inpatient cardiology services to meet the needs of patients arriving in our Emergency Department - the region's busiest. Moving forward, SJHH will: become part of both an evidence-based care system and an academic learning environment, in partnership with Hamilton Health Sciences and McMaster University. pursue an integrated model of care for our community. Clinical Quality - CANCER SURGERY Our successful surgical program currently performs a significant share of Hamilton's cancer surgeries. We will build on this strength and increase the number of cancer-related procedures while ensuring access to high quality cancer care that meets or exceeds provincial wait time targets. In addition, we will provide regional leadership in quality care and research for tertiary cancer surgical services in Head, Neck, ENT, Thoracic, Urologic, Breast, Colorectal and Hepatobilary cancer. Looking ahead, we aim to: increase hip and knee related surgeries, meet MOHLTC wait time targets, enhance clinical research programs. 2 St. Joseph's Healthcare Hamilton employee Living the selected for national fellowship Mission Congratulations to Mary The Executive Training for A spotlight on staff, Puntillo, Operational Service Research Application physicians and Manager, Schizophrenia (EXTRA) program develops volunteers who Service, at St. Joseph's capacity and leadership to demonstrate the Healthcare's Mountain Campus, optimize the use of research St. Joseph’s Healthcare who has been selected as evidence in managing Canadian Mission in Action one of 24 participants in a healthcare organizations. prestigious national healthcare The EXTRA/FORCES Everyone at St. Joseph's Healthcare fellowship program - fellowship is designed to train Executive Training for health system managers from It is very hard to keep this short and Research Application (EXTRA). across Canada to become to the point given the extent all those EXTRA/FORCES was better decision makers by involved have done for us.

We sought to examine the effect of integrated palliative and oncology care on QOL, mood, post-traumatic stress (PTSD) symptoms, and EOL outcomes in patients with AML. Methods: We conducted a multi-site randomized trial of integrated palliative and oncology care (n = 86) versus usual oncology care (n = 74) for patients with AML undergoing intensive chemotherapy. Patients assigned to the intervention were seen by palliative care clinicians at least twice per week during their hospitalization for induction chemotherapy and all subsequent hospital- izations.
