Aging at Home (AAH), as initially announced in 2007, is a program that provides a continuum of community-based services for seniors and their caregivers to allow them to stay healthy and live independently and with dignity in their homes. The strategy also aims to decrease the number of alternate level of care (ALC) patients in Ontario hospitals. ALC patients are individuals who are occupying acute care beds in hospitals, but would be better cared for in another setting — whether it be their own homes or long-term care homes. This year, the Central West LHIN is receiving $10,712,855 to fund local programs that provide health services to seniors in the comfort and dignity of their own home, allowing them to lead healthy and independent lives while avoiding unnecessary visits to hospitals.

  • Message from the CEO Scott Mcleod, CEO
    Central West LHINfocus Winter 2013 SPECIAL EDITION Message from the CEO Scott McLeod, CEO The Central West LHIN accomplished a lot in 2012. I started my position as CEO with the Central West LHIN in August and knew I had to hit the ground running because we were in the midst of planning and developing important projects such as the LHIN’s third Integrated Health Services Plan (IHSP 3) and Health Links. January-February But with the help of dedicated staff and the engaged efforts of community members and Health Service Providers, the Central West LHIN made significant progress in many areas. February-May During the course of the year, the Central West LHIN was able to learn about the views of residents when it comes to local June-September health care. This was especially important in the development of the IHSP 3. Through a series of community engagement sessions, residents and Health Service Providers had the chance to provide September-December input on local health care services and this feedback was used to develop the IHSP 3. The Central West LHIN worked diligently throughout 2012 December to create a strategic plan aimed at improving local health care services. Our efforts led to the creation and development of four strategic directions which are: Improve Access to Care, Full Year Streamline Transitions and Navigation, Drive Quality and Value and Build on the Momentum. Each strategic direction Central West LHINfocus will improve access to the right creating an open dialogue, the also been a rewarding one. care, at the right place and at Central West LHIN participated In the time I’ve been with the right time.

  • Community Care Services
    Telephone Town Hall – Monday, November 25, 2013 Commonly-Asked Questions General What is the purpose of the Telephone Town Hall? The Central West Community Care Access Centre (CCAC), Central West Local Health Integration Network (LHIN), Headwaters Health Care Centre, Region of Peel Health Services and William Osler Health System (Osler) have hosted three Telephone Town Hall meetings over the past year. The purpose of the event is to help area residents better understand what Osler and each of its partners do, and how we work together to provide health services to the community. It also gives participants an opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback about the services that Osler and its partners offer. At our Telephone Town Hall meeting in November 2013, we engaged with over 8,000 households across the region in a conversation about local health care services. Anyone can sign up for the Telephone Town Hall. We also randomly select thousands of households across the region and invite them to join the call. Watch for more information about the next Telephone Town Hall to be posted on the health care partner websites in the months to come. Community Care Services I have been hearing about something called ‘Health Links’. What are they and how will they help better coordinate care in the community? Health Links is a province-wide initiative about health system partners working together to deliver the most appropriate care in the most appropriate care setting, with the ultimate goal of improving the quality of people’s lives. There have been five Health Links announced in the Central West LHIN since the government launched the initiative in November 2012.
