CEO Blog: Checking in on strategy!

It’s hard to believe we are past the midway point of summer 2019 already! There is nothing we love more as Canadians than to complain about our weather but there has truly been nothing to say but “Thank You!” for the hot sunny summer we’ve been having (at least here in Southern Ontario).

As is usually the case, once we get into August thoughts turn to the work ahead in the fall. Let’s face it, we all know the real new year is the first day after Labour Day in September!

This fall also marks the midway point of Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital five year strategy: No boundaries.

No boundaries at Holland Bloorview

It’s hard to believe that it has been more than two and a half years since the Board of Trustees launched the massive engagement that led to our ambitious No boundaries strategic plan. Our plan was created through 1000+ touch-points with children, youth, former clients (whom we now call alumni), families, staff and community partners. It launched in 2017 at a great event in our cafeteria that was co-hosted with family leader, Alifa Khan. This five year plan challenged us to personalize pathways, discover for action and connect the system powered by mobilizing people and teams, evolving client-centred quality and safety, co-creating with children, youth, families and alumni and leading and modeling social change.

When we launched No boundaries, we committed to a check in to review, refine and refresh our strategic plan in 2019.

Why engage in a strategy check in?

Two and a half years ago we said we would hold ourselves accountable to the ambition of the No boundaries strategy. We wanted to make sure that we wouldn’t cruise through the back half of the plan, nor did we want to hit five years and realize that we hadn’t made the kind of impact that is embodied in our vision: the most meaningful and healthy futures for all children, youth and families.

We wanted to make sure that Holland Bloorview was part of any conversation about child health and was influencing meaningful social change. In addition to having a bold strategy, we aspired to support it with a people-focused culture that would be second to none. After all, probably the most quoted business axiom ever is that “culture eats strategy for lunch.”

At the halfway point of our No boundaries strategy, much has changed for children, youth, alumni, families and Holland Bloorview staff: in the public policy environment with the change of provincial government and a federal election coming in fall 2019; in the research and innovation ecosystems; in technology, among our academic and healthcare partners; in the healthcare system and in community and home. A strategy check in will give us an opportunity to step back from our day-to-day work to explore what is progressing, what might need to evolve, and what we might need to consider to ensure we are making the biggest possible impact.

What will we achieve with the strategy check in?

With the strategy check in we will:

• Lead an engaging and meaningful strategy process with our children, youth, families, alumni, staff and partners;
• Share No Boundaries accomplishments to date; and
• Ensure we are on the right course and evolve as necessary.

How do you get involved?

We plan on creating a rapid and powerful strategy check in process between September and October 2019 with our children, youth, families, alumni, staff and partners. There will be many ways to get involved including in-person sessions in October and through digital engagement opportunities (keep an eye out for updates on our website and social media channels).

Days are (already) getting shorter!

Enjoy the end of summer with friends, family and loved ones. It’s going to be a busy and exciting fall at Holland Bloorview!

CEO blog: National Bereaved Parents Month

“What we once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose, for all that we love deeply becomes part of us.”

– Helen Keller (www.whatsyourgrief.com)

I just learned that July is National Bereaved Parents Month.

At the end of June, I attended Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital’s 3^rd annual Celebration of Life. It was my first time attending (it takes place on a weekend afternoon and “mom-ing” had conflicted with the first two years). The event memorializes all the children who our teams have cared for who have died. There were some parents and siblings there whose children had died scarcely a year ago and who had been actively under our care at the time of their death. There were others whose children had died decades ago and decades after they were our patients.

We looked at pictures of young people who have died since the last ceremony, shared time in the garden weaving an art piece with ribbons representing every lost life and planted new perennials in their honour.

Each family wanted to share with me. I heard stories of their late loved ones, from favourite music to goofiest gaff. So many wanted to share stories of incredible caring from my team – in one case grabbing a nurse and bringing her to me because “I want her to hear me saying this to you.”

This Celebration of Life was meaningful but sparsely attended. Perhaps that’s because we are bad at talking about grief. We are great at celebrating success – check out the average Instagram feed for the “highlight reels” that people typically post. But we don’t know what to say to the bereaved. We struggle to find the right words, to get over our fear of saying the wrong thing and our fear of being in the presence of pain.  To be present with loss we have to be willing to be vulnerable.

Speaking of vulnerability,  the night before the Celebration of Life, I was emailing with Marylyn Ballantyne, our incredibly wise and experienced chief nurse executive and sharing that I was worried I would “lose it” at the event. I had to speak and wasn’t sure if I’d make it through without crying; something that I hate doing in professional settings. Her response:  it’s okay to lose it.

Respect for ways that anyone experiences loss (for example, the choice to come to an event or not, to share one’s own experiences or to keep them private) is one thing I believe is important. There is no “right” way to grieve.

I’m still learning every day how to be compassionately in the presence of loss, my own and others. The only thing I know is that the only way to get better at it is to simply do it.

Supporting LGBTQI2S at Holland Bloorview

An interview with Randy Mulder

After Randy Mulder, a Therapeutic Recreation Assistant at Holland Bloorview, got in touch with me following devastating events that shook up the LGBTQI2S community in Canada and abroad, I knew that I wanted to hear more. I wanted to understand  how he was feeling and if there was anything we could do to ensure staff felt supported and had a safe space to connect and voice their feelings.

Randy and I met, we brought in Chief People and Culture Officer Tracey Millar and held a workshop facilitated by psychotherapist, Sly Sarkisova, at The 519. From there, Randy grabbed the reins and Holland Bloorview’s LGBTQI2S community network was born.

With Meenu Sikand’s arrival at Holland Bloorview as Executive Lead Equity, Diversity and Inclusion we are hoping that other community networks will grow and thrive building on Randy’s initiative.

In honour of Pride Month, I asked Randy answer a few questions about himself and the network.

1. What is the last book you read? Last show you streamed? Last movie you saw in a theatre?

I am reading Blackening Canada: Diaspora, Race, Multiculturalism by Paul Barrett, which I found at the U of T bookstore.  When I want to keep informed or need to dig deeper into sex, sexuality, religion, world politics, I read books about philosophy and sociology to get a better sense of what is going on locally, nationally, and internationally.  For creativity, I collect and read comics and graphic novels.

I love watching Star Trek again and again and again.  Star Trek shows are my security blanket.  They get me through life!  Mostly streaming through Netflix.

I watched Godzilla: King of the Monsters. This movie brought back memories of old Japanese sci-fi films.

2. Do you use any social media? Why or why not?

I used to use Facebook often and as the years went by I use it less frequently as it has become more about ads, memes and seems to have a negative vibe.  I do like keeping in touch with family abroad as I have family in the Netherlands, British Columbia, and Alberta.

Facebook Messenger is my favourite for communication as it does not have ads and memes and your conversations are more private.  I like sharing images and stories with people 1-on-1 rather than posting on Facebook.  Privacy and building strong interpersonal relationships with family and friends come with huge benefits with regards to empathy, compassion, and grace.  I spend less time on social media and more time in my communities, especially the 519 Community Centre and Gay Village.  Being informed and volunteering my time locally is of the utmost importance for my life and survival.

The social media site I enjoy the most is YouTube. I also like video games, computers, and anything technology.

3. Who have been your biggest influences?

My friends and family are very supportive. My life coach, Cecile Peterkin, has been my greatest influence and an asset to understanding who I am and how I should live my life to its fullest potential as an artist, teacher, and therapeutic recreationist.

4. What do you appreciate most in your friends?

Support.  Unconditional love. Time.

My friends have pulled me through some struggles over the years with the loss of my father, and close friends in the LGBTQI2S community.  They got me through to having fun again!

5. What’s your favourite thing to do?

I love walking throughout Toronto. My max was an 18 km walk to the Scarborough Bluffs from downtown and beyond.  I love drawing and painting. Socializing in the gay village is my main love.

6. What do you consider your greatest achievement?

Getting into Teacher’s College.  It was one of the most difficult goals I ever succeeded in achieving. It took me almost a year to work out how I would answer questions on the applications. I really struggled with my learning disabilities and ADHD back then.  I really didn’t believe in myself or what I could actually achieve. My life coach, professors, learning strategist and school counsellors at OCADU, friends and family supported me and I fell to my knees in tears when I got into UOIT! My life changed forever after that.

7. What do you like the most about working at Holland Bloorview? What would you like us to do better?

I love being able to collaborate on projects with other team members across disciplines.  I love being able to apply my art practice, teaching practice into therapeutic recreation programs!

More examples, scenarios, support and education on the importance of collaboration would be amazing.

8. How did you end up working at Holland Bloorview and what do you do here? What would surprise people most about your job?

I began volunteering at Holland Bloorview in Therapeutic Recreation and Bloorview School Authority with school teacher Paul Alcomo.  Paul has been a great influence in me going to teacher’s college and therapeutic recreation.  The recreation staff liked my volunteer work so much that they told to me to apply for work and I still work as a therapeutic recreation assistant today.

I think people would be surprised by the varied programs I have to make to accommodate the needs of our clients and the amount of freedom I have to adjust programs for the needs of the kids. For example, clients may need hand over hand support to make art with a paint brush, may need a brush adapted to suit their needs, may need a larger canvass, or may even need more emotional support.

9. Tell me about the LGBTQI2S community network initiative you launched at Holland Bloorview? What motivated you? What more do you want to achieve?

I created this LGBTQI2S support and dialogue meeting forum for staff to share their stories and their struggles and successes in life.  When the violence towards gay people at Pulse night club occurred and serial killer Bruce McArthur was caught in Toronto, the gay community was reeling in years of pain and sorrow.  I wrote an email to the CEO at Holland Bloorview, Julia Hanigsberg, about these tragedies and we met to look for a support system for people at Holland Bloorview.  Immediately we thought support meetings throughout the year would benefit staff with regards to any pain or sorrow they may have in their life.

I would hope to see more initiative from other staff to create their own meetings or events that would fulfil their needs for positivity and success.

10. What advice would you give someone at Holland Bloorview who wanted to launch their own community network initiative?

I would suggest they meet with the CEO, Julia Hanigsberg, to begin the process of brainstorming what that may look like for them.  Julia has the positivity and experience in these areas to be a strong influence in how they can achieve this goal and implement a successful plan.  There is strength in numbers with regards to support in community networks.

11. What does Pride Month mean to you? What is your favourite thing to do during Pride?

Pride Month brings together the whole country and beyond.  Local communities can connect and share their ideas and events that create a more diverse and inclusive world for people in the LGBTQI2S world.  Allies can join in the support and fun.  Intersectionality, sex, and sexuality are terms to focus on, teach about, and experience hands-on with regards to making the world a better place to live and work together!

I love to go the 519 Community Centre to support all walks of life and I love to dance and socialize!

CEO Blog: “Ontario’s Health Care Transformation—the View from the Kids’ Table”

I’m not a fan of hyperbole. So, take me at my word when I say that we are going through unprecedented health care transformation in Ontario. What is this transformation all about? What’s the view through the lens of child health? And what should you be paying attention to?

Why is the government transforming health care?

I remember when my kids were little and their fever always spiked in the late evening when the doctor’s office was closed, so we’d trundle off to the emergency room. There are other times you have a quick question about your health, but instead of being able to send an email or have a five-minute call, it can take weeks for an appointment. If you are the parent of a child with a chronic condition or serious medical disorder, you likely have binders of records you cart around to hospitals and specialists because you don’t have confidence that anyone but you can pull it all together and keep track.

That’s what we mean when we say Ontario’s system is highly fragmented. Parts of the system don’t connect easily for people and families. Seamless digital access to health records is uncommon. Often people wait too long for services that they need or get “stuck” in hospitals because other parts of the system (e.g. long-term care) aren’t available when they need them.

And while Ontario has some of the lowest number of hospital beds per person (while sustaining some of the best health care outcomes, amazingly talented clinicians, groundbreaking research and best educational institutions globally), health care is still costing us all a lot—and because we pay for most of it through our taxes, we care about keeping costs at a minimum.

We all want pretty reasonable things: improved patient experience, improved overall health, and keeping costs at a minimum. Health care as an industry has also woken up to the fact that better patient care experiences, enhanced wellness, and less burnout for physicians, nurses, personal support workers, therapists and other health care providers has an inevitable positive impact on patient care.

So, in short, better health, better experience of giving and receiving care and the provincial budget are all key drivers of the reforms.

What is the government doing?

The first element is the invitation to create Ontario Health Teams. This would include all the service providers and partners required for optimal health of the people within a particular geography. The mix would include primary care (physicians, nurse practitioners), home nursing and other home supports, hospitals, school health, children’s treatment centres, transportation, emergency responders and public health.

The other element of the transformation is something called Ontario Health. It brings under one “roof” (a single board of directors) a number of health funding, coordinating, standards and quality setting organizations (e.g. local health integration networks, Cancer Care Ontario, Health Quality Ontario and others).

How is the government doing this?

The short answer is: fast! Many have described the process of self-assessment for Ontario Health Teams as a “low rules environment”. The government indicated that it might approve three to five health teams in the first round, within only a few months, and received well in excess of 150 applications.

What is the view from “the kids table” on this health transformation?

Kids aren’t little adults. The way we care for children needs to be designed around their wellness needs. They experience a variety of unique health conditions and their health exists within the ecosystem of their family, school and community. Families are also the most unpaid caregiving workforce in children’s health care.

Most children don’t receive their health care in specialty children’s hospitals. Their care happens at the family doctor, at the local community hospital, in school, through public health. For 85% of children who are mostly well, their health services experience will be routine and infrequent.

Moreover, the investment in children’s health will reap a long-term return on population health. For example, treating chronic conditions early can prevent a greater need down the road. An even better example is prevention—keeping children from getting sick in the first place.

Finally, because of the enormous progress of medical research and medical care, very ill children, premature babies, children with disabilities, medical complexity and rare disorders, are moving into adulthood with ensuing health and social service needs. Planning and making sure our “new” health system works for those children today, as youth, and into adulthood is something that must happen. But plans for children can be eclipsed because the demographics and chronic conditions of aging, surgical interventions like knee and hip replacements, or the insufficient numbers of long-term care beds are taking up most of the air time. Seniors vote and kids don’t.

What should you be paying attention to?

Across Ontario, family doctors are still often solo practitioners, leaving them and their patients vulnerable and frustrated. Highly integrated and high-functioning health systems include well-organized and integrated primary care. Pay attention to how and whether Ontario Health Teams are including and engaging primary care providers.

Another thing you may want to do is “follow the money”. You should care about the cost of the health system because, as taxpayers, you pay for it. You should care about how appropriately funded it is because you use it for yourself and your family. We know that the government will want to drive cost out of the health system, but if our system gets cheaper before it gets better (organized, integrated and more streamlined) then you should be worried.

And finally, keep in mind that sign you see when you drive in your neighbourhood:

“Slow down! Watch for children”

“Slow down! Watch for children” means that if the system we are creating doesn’t work well for the kids, it probably isn’t going to work for any of us in the long run.

Slow down. Watch for children. The future of health care is depending on you.

5 Things You Need to Know to Build Effective Models of Child, Youth and Family Engagement

Three very different hospitals. Three very different programs. Nonetheless, The Change Foundation’s recent case study of family integrated care in the Mount Sinai Hospital NICU (Toronto), Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital (Toronto), and CHEO (Ottawa), shows 5 key learnings that can underpin any healthcare people engagement initiative.

1. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery: start with what has worked elsewhere

Mount Sinai built the pilot for its family integrated care (FICare) model in their NICU on Estonia’s “humane care” to make parents/guardians an integral part of a baby’s care team. It was a natural fit as they had an active parent advisory group and had a history of working closely with families. They applied the model in a rigorously designed pilot project and then followed up with an international randomized controlled trial.

Holland Bloorview based its model on the core concepts of dignity and respect, information sharing, participation and collaboration promoted by the Institute of Patient and Family Centered Care.

CHEO relied on a lean methodology approach to co-design a renewal of its framework for child, youth and family engagement in order to better reflect the demographics of the community it serves.

2. It doesn’t happen without the right leadership

Leadership is mission critical and the ideal leadership depends on the organizational culture, strengths, and when and where obstacles will be encountered. So at Mount Sinai this was the pediatrician-in-chief and director of the Maternal-Infant Care Research Centre. At Holland Bloorview, the then president and CEO personally championed a refreshed client and family-centred care strategy and change-management framework to integrate best practices and evidence. While, at CHEO, what proved successful was partnership between the manager of patient experience and the team leader for quality improvement with the chief of staff as the executive sponsor thereby building support from physicians and clinicians.

3. Iterate, iterate, iterate: learn from mistakes, course-correct, persevere

Each program encountered challenges along the way and found unique solutions. For example, at CHEO, recruitment of youth and especially those from vulnerable populations for Family and Youth Forums proved challenging. They found success by looking outside the hospital to build relationships and trust in the community and by creating different ways to participate. Rather than a standing monthly engagement meeting, some people preferred to attend a one-time workshop on a specific issue, or participate in an online forum.

Mount Sinai didn’t anticipate that nurses would be worried about job losses and later they had concerns about the shift from “doer” to “teacher”. Enlisting the support of champions within the nursing team and among parents to educate was a key lesson learned.

At Holland Bloorview there were bumps in the road too. At first, family leaders participating on committees had experiences of feeling left out or singled out or simply not being given the information they needed to participate effectively. Change management for staff included a formal process to apply for family leaders as committee members and giving staff the tools they needed to effectively engage family leaders in the work of the hospital.

4. Start with strong foundations and invest in ongoing scaffolding

CHEO is building child, youth and family engagement into the project approval process and recognizes the need for continued support of the engagement framework. At Mount Sinai, parent education, nurse education, environmental support and psycho-social support (i.e. peer-to-peer support) are the pillars to aid continued partnership. And, at Holland Bloorview, the Client and Family Integrated Care team are the subject matter experts who focus on embedding child, youth and family leadership in all aspects of the hospital’s work. Family mentors work with new family leaders and “family as faculty” bring their experience to individuals and groups of providers.

5. This is culture change: seek out successes to celebrate

The high profile that Mount Sinai’s NICU received by demonstrating FICare’s positive impact on health outcomes and parent-child bonding generates pride amongst staff, which in turn increases their support and commitment to FICare. At Holland Bloorview one on-going form of celebration is the Spotlight recognition program that enables families to recognize staff for demonstrating client and family-centred care. Staff take pride in receiving a Spotlight and the recognition builds and reinforces client and family-centred behaviour. The best recognition can be witnessing the success first hand. CHEO is measuring and evaluating and points at an example to a plan that emerged from a series of facilitated meetings held by the Youth Representation Council: “We give our opinion, and combined with the opinions of the children and the parents, it turns into a beautiful well-designed structure.”

As parts of the healthcare system we all strive to innovate – to exercise creativity aligned to our mission and vision in order to bring value to the communities we serve and to our organization. Innovation will only thrive with an effective balance of the ideal leadership and local passion and cultural change. The Change Foundation’s case studies on successes in engagement give healthcare organizations concrete examples to follow and demonstrate the value of learning from the experiences of others and customizing to the local context.

CEO blog: No Boundaries Fund

Launched in 2017, the No Boundaries Fund was created to unleash the innovation and the creativity of the Holland Bloorview team. By providing small grants and a low red tape way to apply for them, we hoped to give everyone the power to launch solutions and tackle challenges they see impacting clients and families.

In 2018 we received 39 applications from staff members and 14 teams were selected for funding.

We have officially launched year 3 of the No Boundaries Fund! Staff are encouraged to submit their grant requests, up to a maximum of $5,000 per request, for a total of $50,000 of donor funding available in 2019-20.

With No Boundaries Fund grants, staff can address pressing needs, identify new and emerging solutions, pilot creative ideas and help bring our No Boundaries strategy to life. In addition, this year we have a special call-out for ideas that support inclusion of kids with disabilities in recreation and sports, and enhance the mental health strategy for children, youth, families and staff – priorities for which we have eager donors.

Your Creativity Knows No Boundaries!

Not sure what kinds of projects receive No Boundaries funding? Here are some examples:

• For some clients, especially those with neurodevelopmental disabilities, receiving dental care can be downright scary. That’s why Tanya, a dental and orthodontic hygienist with the hospital’s dental services, wanted to make the treatment room more welcoming and inviting. The grant she received enabled her department to purchase a number of items to help make treatment a little less daunting. These items included:
  • a soft bean bag so children can sit comfortably and feel more like they’re at home
  • a cordless (and practically silent) cleaning instrument, which allows her to do cleaning and polishing anywhere in the room and with a better sensory experience – even while a child is sitting in the bean bag chair!
  • a lava lamp projector that creates a kaleidoscope of shifting colours on the ceiling which helps kids sit still when in the bean bag chair

• The Survival Guide to Picky Eating is a helpful feeding workshop held at Holland Bloorview. Access to a program prior to significant impairment in eating behaviours gives families the ability to change a child’s feeding trajectory in a positive way.
  
  
• Youth with disabilities want and need to talk about sexuality, gender identity and intimacy. Holland Bloorview co-facilitated a series of workshops with Holland Bloorview Youth Leaders, Family Leaders, and community partners with the No Boundaries Fund as a catalyst.

• Having a sibling with a disability can be tough. Siblings need support, programming and recognition. Holland Bloorview offered holistic family programming by adding a monthly program designed specifically for the siblings of clients as well as a sibling recognition event at the end of the year. Using a play-based model, siblings ages 7-18 can play, relax, unwind, meet peers who have shared lived experiences, and talk about what it’s like to be a sibling of someone with a disability.

Are you inspired?

For this year’s No Boundaries Fund, grant requests can be made from March 18th, 2019 to May 10^th, 2019, by any member of the Holland Bloorview team. Remember that co-designing with clients/families always gives your plans an edge! To apply, all you have to do is email noboundariesfund@hollandbloorview.ca to submit your request. Share your idea with me for an opportunity to bring it to life.

CEO blog: Why I give to Capes For Kids

Starting on March 4, 2019, you may see a pretty fun sight on the streets of Toronto, in boardrooms and hallways, offices and streetcars. People of all shapes and sizes, walking, rolling, running and dancing will be wearing capes. Red and shiny, bedazzled and bejeweled, thrown together or lovingly handcrafted, the capes will have one thing in common: they all signal a commitment to making a profound impact in the lives of kids with disabilities and they’ll be for Capes for Kids.

Why? First of all, we can all use a bit more silly in the doldrums of winter and it’s hard to take yourself too seriously when you’re wearing a cape! Secondly, people of all abilities and all sizes can wear a cape! Thirdly, children with disabilities, chronic medical conditions and complex rehabilitation requirements don’t get the attention and the funding they need for care, services, technology and groundbreaking research. Fourthly, once you get to know the stories of some of these young people, you need to help:

Meet Rhea: When she was four, Rhea nearly died. What started as flu caused Rhea to develop acute necrotizing encephalitis, a rare condition that causes severe brain damage. In a coma her doctors gave Rhea little chance of survival. But she woke up and her journey began. Rhea spent almost half a year learning how to walk and talk again with Holland Bloorview’s Brain Injury Rehabilitation Team. Now Rhea is 7 and there’s no stopping her.

Our friend Penelope is a bright and delightful 4-year-old girl and would never be confused with a number, but there is one that she can’t get away from: the code 10q23.31-24.2, which represents a rare genetic disorder. Penelope has worked with her Holland Bloorview speech language pathologists for the past four years. The Speech Language Pathology team includes speech language pathologists and communicative disorders specialists who work with kids and youth to address needs that may impact speech, communication, language, swallowing, as well as the need for alternative communication. Just last week I saw Penelope so excited to take over a microphone using short sentences and asking questions!

It’s hard to select just one more story… but how about Sheriauna, whose world has opened up thanks to specialized and customized services from prosthetics services, which over the years, has worked with Sheriauna not to make a single prosthetic arm but to make a number of prosthetic devices so that she can play guitar and piano, ride a bike, ski, and swim, and for competitive dance too. They consult with Sheriauna about how she wants it to feel, look and what she wants it to do, and create solutions that are as unique as she is.

Some people ask why I give generously and fundraise for Holland Bloorview when I already “give through my work” as part of the team. The answer is pretty simple: I see first-hand the gap between what exists today and what can exist when donors come together with purpose. $10, $20 or $100 may not seem like much, but Capes for Kids raised over $1M in its first 2 years because of hundreds of caped crusaders and their sponsors and that’s enough to make a big impact in kids’ lives. It’s not too late! Join Capes for Kids for fun and for children’s lives.
