Walter Wodchis, Associate Professor at the Department of Health Policy, Management and Evaluation, University of Toronto, explains how the PRISMA model works.
Started in Quebec in 1999, PRISMA aims to implement an integrated service delivery network to improve the health, empowerment, and satisfaction of frail older people in the community. It also aims to modify their use of health and social services while reducing the burden for their caregivers.
In the PRISMA model, patients enter the system through a single point of entry that assesses, co-ordinates, monitors and evaluates multidisciplinary services being delivered by practitioners, public service providers and volunteer organisations.

Implementing and Evaluating the Hospital Guide to Reducing Medicaid ReadmissionsJSI
Reducing readmissions is a growing priority in the pursuit of the Triple Aim. While much attention has been paid to Medicare readmissions, evidence demonstrates that Medicaid agencies are increasingly implementing payment penalties for readmissions, and the recent expansion of Medicaid eligibility under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) has provided millions of adults with new health coverage. Hospitals serving large numbers of Medical patients have a mounting interest in adopting strategies to reduce readmissions that address the distinct needs of this population.

Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

3. PRISMA
PRISMA is a French acronym for :
Program of Research to Integrate the Services
for the Maintenance of Autonomy
PRISMA focuses on integrating health and
social services in alignment with medical
management.
3
4. A Brief Overview of PRISMA Results
1. By year 3, the rate of implementation of all of the key
features of the model approached 80%. Physician
participation was 73%.
2. After four years, the PRISMA model produced
significant reductions in the prevalence and incidence
of functional decline, reduced ER visits, increased client
satisfaction and empowerment.
4
5. A Brief Overview of PRISMA Results
3. There was no statistically significant effect on rates of
nursing home placement, consultations with health
professionals, use of home care services, or costs -
indicating that PRISMA produced improved results at
no additional cost.
4. The PRISMA model has been adopted by the Ministry
of Health and Social Services in Quebec as the
standard of care for older adults in all regions across
the entire province.
5
7. The PRISMA Program
• Began as a research project in one region in Quebec to
improve emergency department and other hospital
utilization problems among older people.
• Initially spread for implementation to 3 intervention with 3
control regions (urban, suburban & rural)
• Goal was to improve continuity in care experienced by
older people with chronic conditions.
• An integrated service delivery network was established
using a coordination-type model of care.

2. Single point of entry
Clients may self-refer, be referred by their physicians or by other
professionals in the community, such as hospital discharge
planners, home care providers or housing and social care
providers.
Clients are screened at the time of initial contact with the
program using a seven question screening tool developed to
quickly identify seniors who should receive the full assessment.

15. 6 Components of PRISMA
6. Information Tool
Computerized clinical chart
Facilitates information flow
Accessible by all professionals and institutions
Data generator for monitoring and research
However, accessing the computerized system among
independent physicians in the community is still an
issue.
15
16. Contextual Success Factors
Collaboration and leadership:
partnership among university researchers, the provincial
government and regional health and social service planning and
funding authorities as well as managers from the home and
community care service centres sustained over 15 years.
Sustained incremental change within a broad vision
Over time, the key elements of integrated networks were put into
place as recommended by the researchers involved with the
design of the PRISMA project
16
17. How was it spread
• In the original Region (Estrie), PRISMA was not viewed
as a one-time research project, but rather as part of a
larger system change designed to improve care for the
frail elderly.
• A range of Provincial changes were initiated while
PRISMA was implemented and evaluated:
Regional structure with local Area Networks and Health and
Social Care Centres
Guidelines for coordinated care of the elderly
Standardized assessment tool for all local services
Centralized single-access points for care established in all
regions
17
18. Sustainability & Spread Mechanisms
Flexibility for local implementation:
A key decision has been to allow regions flexibility in implementing
the features of PRISMA in ways that are appropriate for local areas.
Co-ordination type model is flexible:
PRISMA does not require either vertical or horizontal mergers or the
creation of a new or greatly modified entity.
18
19. Sustainability & Spread Mechanisms
Performance Accountability Measures directly linked to
implementation fidelity (see next slide).
Primary focus has been on process measures for quality assurance
while measuring and monitoring outcomes. This approach was
taken because it is difficult to attribute outcomes to a particular
provider or intervention when so many variables are involved.
19
20. Sustainability & Spread Mechanisms
20
Degree of Implementation of Network Integration Features in Quebec: 2008-2011
21. Sustainability & Spread Issues
• Physician Remuneration.
Most primary care physicians in Quebec are paid on a fee-for
service basis which does not reimburse them for their time in
care planning and service coordination. Though the PRISMA
Project achieved 73% participation among physicians by 3
years, spread is slower.
• Ongoing Training and Coaching
Individual health professionals do not automatically consider the
possible role of other providers, especially those at the home
support level.
Case managers need training in the coordination features of
their roles.
The pace of change and staff turnover can quickly result in
redirection of staff away from PRISMA goals. 21
22. Key Learning Point
Successful implementation takes time:
• One of the key lessons learned is that integration programs need
time to develop because of the range of service providers (from the
very large, such as hospitals to the very small, such as local home
delivered meals programs).
• The PRISMA evaluation was a four year longitudinal study. The
wisdom of the choice of four years was seen in the fact that it took
until year 3 to reach a 70% implementation rate of all the features
(including physician participation). The impact of the model was not
apparent until year 3.
• PRISMA has now been taken to scale as the standard of care for
older persons in all of Quebec under the name RSIPA.
