There has been an increase in admission rates in patients with dementia and responsive behaviours at OSMH. All front line staff on the Integrated Medicine and Rehab Services unit (IMRS) do not always feel safe and competent providing care and engagement to patients with this patient population.
This IDEAS team had the following aim;
By May 31st, 2019 front line staff working on IMRS will rate their confidence in working with patients with dementia and responsive behaviours as high or very high; 75% compared to the baseline 45%.
