Transcript Interdisciplinary Teamwork - PowerPoint Slides
Interdisciplinary Teams: Evolution & Experience in Geriatrics
Present State of Health Care
Crossing the Quality Chasm (Institute of Medicine, 2001)
- Notes present health care system frequently harms patients and routinely fails to deliver potential benefits - In chapter Preparing the Workforce, outlines new or enhanced skills required for professional to function in changing health [health & mental health] environment --- 5 skills
Preparing the Workforce
Five Skills 1.
Informatics – Communicate, manage knowledge, and support decision making using information technology
2.
Interdisciplinary Teams – standardize care to make services patient-centered, continuous, and reliable
3.
Evidence-Based Practice – Integrate best research with clinical expertise and patient values
Preparing the Workforce
Five Skills 4.
Patient-Centered Care – Inform and involve patients and their families in medical/treatment decision making and self management; coordinate and integrate care, apply principles of disease prevention and behavioral change appropriate for diverse populations
5.
Quality Improvement – Continually understand and measure quality of care in terms of structure, processes, and outcomes, design and test interventions to change processes and systems of care
Pressure for Enhanced Teamwork
Healthcare system Organizational changes – mergers, acquisitions, closings Financial changes incentives, reimbursement models Priorities – shorter in patient days, out-patient services, home based services
Pressure for Enhanced Teamwork
Cost-effective care models Hospice ACT Teams Visiting Nurse Day Treatment Programs Senior Community Centers Gero-psychiatric Centers Others……….
Emphasis on health promotion Emphasis on disease prevention Community based services
Teamwork: Health & Mental Health
Outcomes Teams fall short of expectations of members, leaders and managers (Pearson, 2001) Suboptimization – lack of care continuity, redundant and wasteful processes, excess costs, miscommunication (Larson, 1999; Institute Medicine, 2001)
History of Interdisciplinary Education
Professionals trained and socialized in isolation Organizations are hierarchical in structure Professionals have their own “speak” In 1995 less than 25% nursing and medical schools had any interdisciplinary programs Accreditation speak to ability to practice in interdisciplinary settings but silent in terms of training environment Limited research on the impact interdisciplinary training, practice and patient care (Greiner, 2007)
Evolution Team Approach
From historical perspective teams have evolved Consultative approach Multidisciplinary Interdisciplinary Trans-disciplinary
Evolution Team Approach
Consultative approach – one practitioner retains central responsibility and consults with others as needed Multidisciplinary – each team member implements a specialized part of a care plan Interdisciplinary – each team members put forth their knowledge individually and collectively to the care plan Trans-disciplinary – members are jointly responsible for implementing an integrated plan
Evolution in Terminology
Multidisciplinary – as disciplines
working in parallel, with diverse goals
Interdisciplinary – is most common in
literature today, each team members put forth their knowledge individually and collectively to the care/treatment plan
Interprofessional is gaining presence
(Institute of Medicine, 2001)
Of the Four Team Approaches
Trans-disciplinary “Cadillac” Model
Trans-disciplinary – training and legal parameters may shape practice - tasks among team members based in individual patient problems and needs than on traditional role definitions
Team Evolution
What event(s) propelled the move to develop and initiate multidisciplinary teams in health and mental health settings?
Team Approach
Courts and mental health care Accreditation regulations De-institutionalization within mental health Mandatory insurance regulations
Mental Health Teamwork
Do you know which NC Hospital is pictured?
Community Mental Health Programs 1970s Referrals from state hospitals Case review and assignment Case consultations and reviews Consultation & Education Initiatives
Health Care Team Work
Mandatory regulations and accreditation End-Stage Renal Disease Program 1972 Social Security Act Amendment P.L. 92-603 Medicare coverage for renal transplants and home dialysis Referrals from state hospitals
Geriatric Team Development
On Lok Senior Health Services
Community leaders wanted to build nursing home in Chinatown North Beach area Marie Louise Ansak, social worker and others advocated home based services to allow elderly to remain in their own homes/family Used the British concept of “home and community services” Focus transporting frail elderly people to center for health and support services
On Lok Senior Health Services
1971 (Cambodian - Peaceful, happy abode) 1983 obtained Medicare & Medicaid waivers
All Inclusive Care
On Lok Model is pooled capitated financed scheme for integrated acute and long-term care Program becomes her primary physician Interdisciplinary team coordinates provision of services – specialists outside program, home service, contracted services, hospitalization 800 participants – term used Manage risk by preventive care
Retired August 1993, October stocked 39-foot sailboat, on-board black Labrador, and tacked out into the Pacific from San Francisco.
Expansion of On Lok Model
1986 Robert Wood Johnson Foundation & HCFA funding for Program of All Inclusive Care the Elderly (PACE) Established as demonstration project @ 24 sites today Carrying full-risk for health care of their participants 1997 PACE established Medicare provider Interdisciplinary team core of health care management
Veterans Administration
Application across health and mental health facilities Acute Care Hospitals – treatment and rehabilitation, out-patient clinics, specialty clinics, patient and family education, support groups
Veterans Administration
Mental Health In patient and Out-patient Drug/Alcohol programs Homeless programs Vocational – work readiness Residential community homes
Mental Health Assertive Community Team (ACT)
Principles In vivo services Primary responsibility for service delivery Team approach – shared caseload Flexible service provision Time unlimited
ACT Team
“The primary responsibility for care” means that the team provides the majority of the services the consumer needs Philosophy is not to use facilities – not to use structured programs The team itself provides the needed services It is not a brokering model of case management One person on the team can substitute for another Flexibility if there is a needed service that would augment the person’s service array – the team might access that service
Juvenile Offenders Multisystemic Therapeutic Model
Multisystemic Therapy (MST) is a family-focused, home-based program focuses on chronically violent, substance-abusing juvenile offenders [age 12 17] at high risk for out-of home placement. Family therapist collaboration allows family to take the lead setting treatment goals, therapist helps them to accomplish their goals. Intensive family and community-based treatment addresses multiple determinants of serious antisocial behavior. Therapist teams provide services in home and school and are available around the clock. costs approximately $5,800 (in 2007 dollars) per youth treated.
Hospice & Palliative Care Teams
Hospice care is provided through an interdisciplinary, medically directed team. This team approach to care for dying persons typically includes a physician, a nurse, a home health aide, a social worker, a chaplain and a volunteer. Hospice care program tries to provide the best quality of life for dying patients by providing a holistic approach. That means giving spiritual, mental, emotional and physical comfort to the patients, their families and their other caregivers.
Team Advantages
For educators and students Offers multiple health care approaches to study Appreciation and understanding of other disciplines Models strategies for future practice Promotes student participation Challenges norms and values of each discipline
Team Advantages
For delivery systems [health & mental health] Potential for more efficient delivery of care Maximizes resources and facilities Increased preventive care to reduce burden of acute care [health & mental] Facilitates continuous quality improvement efforts
Teamwork Advantages
For patients Improves care by increasing coordination of services, especially complex problems Integrates care for wide range of problems and needs Empowers patients to be active partner in care decisions Support cultural diversity Uses time more efficiently
Teamwork Advantages
Mental health needs - Better management depression Decreased depression scores More adherent medications Fewer symptomatic days Increased work days Less panic and anxiety attacks
Team Advantages
For professionals Increases professional satisfaction Facilities shift in emphasis from acute, crisis care to long-term preventive care Enables professional to learn new skill and approaches Encourages innovation Allow providers to focus on individual specialize expertise
