New Report: The Ontario Burden of Mental Illness and Addictions Report
by Orvie Dingwall 10 Oct '12

10 Oct '12

Today the Institute for Clinical Evaluative Sciences (ICES) and Public Health Ontario released a new report: Opening Eyes, Opening Minds: The Ontario Burden of Mental Illness and Addictions Report http://www.ices.on.ca/webpage.cfm?site_id=1&org_id=68&morg_id=0&gsec_id=0&i… "Ontarians suffer a high burden of illness from mental illness and addictions―a burden that is more than 1.5 times that of all cancers and more than seven times that of all infectious diseases. This joint study by ICES and Public Health Ontario quantifies the burden of nine mental illnesses and addictions in terms of years of life lost due to premature mortality and years of healthy life lost due to reduced functioning."

Happy Thanksgiving and New Manitoba Report on Planning for an Aging Population
by Orvie Dingwall 05 Oct '12

05 Oct '12

Hi Everyone, Please note that MHIKNET Library Services are closed on Monday October 8. Two new reports have recently been released that may be of interest: Manitoba Centre for Health Policy (MCHP) Projecting Personal Care Home Bed Equivalent Needs in Manitoba Through 2036 Chateau D, Doupe M, Walld R, Soodeen R, Ouelette C, Rajotte L http://mchp-appserv.cpe.umanitoba.ca/deliverablesList.html "Manitoba Health's Aging in Place initiative has created relatively new alternatives to care for aging adults. By 2031, all Baby Boomers will be 65 or older and almost half will be older than 75, presenting a growing challenge for the healthcare system. The latest report from MCHP estimates how much the need for personal care home beds or equivalent alternatives such as supportive housing and extended home care is expected to rise. Researchers also looked into family structure - they found being married and having children lowers personal care home use. The study found the proportion of Manitobans using personal care homes has shrunk since 1985 however, by 3036 space for 5,100 more seniors will be needed in long-term care facilities. The extra capacity for care won't be needed all at once and won't be the same across the province, thus healthcare planners from across the province can use this report to prepare for future needs." Large-System Transformation in Health Care: A Realist Review (Saskatchewan) Best A, Greenhalgh T, Lewis S, Saul JE, Carroll S, Bitz J. http://www.milbank.org/uploads/documents/featured-articles/pdf/large-system… "At the request of the Saskatchewan Ministry of Health, researchers from Canada and the UK conducted a review and analysis of successful and less successful transformation initiatives to help guide four major policy development and strategy initiatives in Saskatchewan. These are focused on patient- and family-centered care, primary health care renewal, quality improvement, and surgical wait lists. The aims were to synthesize knowledge of the underlying mechanisms, clarify the role of government and outline options for evaluation."

Four New Canadian Resources: Innovation, Evidence Portal, Change Management, and Health Outcomes
by Orvie Dingwall 18 Sep '12

18 Sep '12

1. From Innovation to Action: The First Report of the Health Care Innovation Working Group: http://www.councilofthefederation.ca/pdfs/Health%20Innovation%20Report-E-WE… In January 2012, Canada's provincial premiers met to discuss shared healthcare concerns. They established a Working Group to identify innovations in healthcare delivery across Canada. This initial report from the Working Group focuses on: * Clinical Practice Guidelines * Team-Based Health Care Delivery Models * Health Human Resource Management Initiatives 2. Evidence-Informed Healthcare Renewal (EIHR) Portal: http://www.mcmasterhealthforum.org/healthsystemsevidence-en (One-time, free registration required) This online portal includes syntheses of research evidence about governance, financial and delivery arrangements within health systems, and about implementation strategies that can support change in health systems. 3. Evidence-Informed Change Management in Canadian Healthcare Organizations: http://www.chsrf.ca/publicationsandresources/researchreports/commissionedre… This project identified a suite of evidence-informed approaches to support change in small and large Canadian health systems and contexts. A concept map was created to identify the key ideas, concepts and issues that leaders and managers may be required to address during a change process. 4. Health Outcomes of Care: An Idea Whose Time Has Come. Canadian Institute for Health Information & Statistics Canada. https://secure.cihi.ca/free_products/HealthOutcomes2012_EN.pdf Despite ever-increasing investments in health care, we know very little in Canada about what we are getting in return for these investments - namely, gains in health status... While we know more in terms of the processes of care and selected outcomes (e.g. mortality and readmissions), less is known about the health outcomes of care at a population level. This is the second report in a series focused on health outcomes and looks at options for data development/enhancement to fill the information gaps in health outcomes of care.

New book by Steven Lewis available online
by Orvie Dingwall 11 Sep '12

11 Sep '12

Steven Lewis is a Saskatoon-based health policy consultant and part-time academic who thinks the healthcare system needs to get a lot better a lot faster (not to be confused with Stephen Lewis the politician, AIDS activist and member of the Order of Canada). A collection of his writing has now been assembled into a book and is available free online at: http://www.longwoods.com/pages/stevenlewis?utm_source=Longwoods+Master+Mail… "Steven believes in equitable access to healthcare for all, and he believes it can be achieved within a public-payer model. But he also believes that Canadian healthcare in the 21st century is in need of reform, and that those responsible for change should be held accountable. Steven's writings are pointed and direct, and highly crafted. His gift for writing makes his work at once entertaining, thought-provoking and sometimes acerbic. Some essays are analytical, while others react to a situation or event. All reflect his passion and his ultimate desire to incite change where change is required, and to hold accountable those who have perpetuated a less than high-performing healthcare system. It is no secret that some critics take issue with Steven's perspective and passion. But over the years that he has been writing for Longwoods, as well as his multitude of other academic journals and books, many critics have also commended him for his honesty and bravery. With his numerous publications and invitations to speak at public forums, Steven has had the ear of politicians and bureaucrats. He has lectured to nursing students and medical students, and has helped shape healthcare leadership in Canada."
