2023/2024 Quality Improvement Plan (QIP)

The Quality Improvement Plan (QIP) is an output of the annual business planning process and includes the selection of quality indicators, targets, and change initiatives for improvement for both the acute care and long-term care setting as outlined as a legislated requirement through the Excellent Care for All Act. Starting this year, Lakeridge Health will be submitting a joint QIP including both the hospital and long-term care services.

The indicators for the 23/24 QIP are:

  • Workplace violence incidents.
  • Medication reconciliation at discharge.
  • Median Emergency Department (ED) length of stay for admitted patients.
  • Percentage of potentially avoidable ED visits for long-term care residents.
  • Documented assessment of palliative care needs among residents identified to benefit from palliative care.
  • Percentage of long-term care home residents not living with psychosis who were given antipsychotic medications.

The detailed narrative and work plan documents for the hospital QIP indicators are included below.
