Over the last year, we undertook a historic community consultation, gathering more than 20,000 points of input from the Lakeridge Health team, patients, families, partners, and the community. All of this feedback guided everything we do at Lakeridge Health. In fiscal year 2018/19, we made significant improvements to the patient and family experience, with a special focus on increasing patient satisfaction across all four Lakeridge Health Emergency Departments (EDs). Guided by results of broad-based consultations, we learned what matters most to patients, families, Sharon Cochran, Chair of the Board of Trustees and Matthew Anderson, President and CEO Patient and Family Experience Advisors, and the broader community to understand how to serve people better. This information also informed the development of exciting new innovations to make the ED experience faster and easier to navigate.
