About Holland Bloorview
WORKING TOGETHER TO MAKE DECISIONS Working together to make decisions At Holland Bloorview, the client, family and health-care team work together to make informed decisions about treatment choices. Treatment can include receiving medicines, check-ups, physiotherapy, life skills training and coaching. The goal is to help your child take part in making decisions about their health care, if they are able to make these decisions.
Who gives consent? Before starting a plan of treatment or treatment, members of the healthcare team must have consent. Saying “yes” to treatment is called consent. Saying “no” to treatment is called refusal. A decision about treatment is only made after a discussion between the client, family and health-care team, and all questions have been answered. Ontario law (called the Health Care Consent Act) helps people and families to make treatment decisions. A person is capable to decide about his/her own treatment if he/she is: • able to understand the information needed to make the decision • able to understand the harms, benefits and outcomes of having or not having the treatment
Your feedback is important Holland Bloorview is committed to providing quality care and service for clients and their families. Your feedback will help us provide the quality of service that our clients and families require.
How to address your questions, concerns and feedback about the care you receive • Talk to a member of your Holland Bloorview team right away • If you feel that the situation needs further attention, you can contact the Client and Family Relations in the Grocery Foundation Resource Centre at Grocery Foundation Resource Centre Family Resource Centre 150 Kilgour Road Toronto, Ontario, Canada M4G 1R8 feedback@hollandbloorview.ca Tel: (416) 753-6084

Please wash or sanitize your hands when you enter the hospital, and when entering and exiting client rooms. Hand sanitizing stations are placed throughout Holland Bloorview, including at the front entrance.

There are two ways to clean your hands: 1. Hand rub provided by the hospital
For Your Safety
INFECTION PREVENTION AND CONTROL
2. Soap and water
After cleaning, make sure your hands are dry before you touch anything.
Think about the times that you would clean your hands at home, such as: • Before and after eating • After using the washroom
• After sneezing or coughing
Make sure you wash your hands at these times and even more often when you are at Holland Bloorview. Your health-care team plays a big role in preventing the spread of infection. They are committed to giving you clean, safe care. There are important moments when your health-care team should wash their hands, such as: • • • •

* Please see the following page for instructions on how to hand wash and use hand rub.
Flu vaccination or mask policy for care providers During the fall and winter flu season, you may notice some of your care providers wearing a mask. Staff, students and volunteers will either be vaccinated against the flu or wear masks in most areas of our facilities to reduce the spread of the illness and help keep our clients safe. There are many reasons why care providers choose to either get vaccinated or wear a mask. Please respect the decision and privacy of each person who provides care for your child.

The Family Leadership Program creates partnerships with families so that their unique wants, needs and preferences are included in all areas of program planning, delivery and evaluation at Holland Bloorview. The Family Leadership Program was formalized in 2011 and now consists of 90+ volunteers that sit on 35+ standing committees and external groups, and 15+ working groups (as of 2013). Family leaders also provide one on one peer support from Monday to Friday and teach at new staff orientation, educate students and speak at conferences globally. Depending on how much time you have to volunteer, your experience or if you want to participate from home, we will find the best fit for you as a family leader. Training will be provided for all positions.
Ways to get involved Be a family advisor We look to family advisors to share their ideas and experiences to inform hospital programs, research, events and written materials. Family advisors participate on hospital committees, on project teams or share feedback individually. Family advisors can take part in most opportunities in person or by phone. Be a family mentor Family mentors provide valuable peer support to other Holland Bloorview family members by providing information and resources. Mentors may volunteer in the family resource centre, answer the Holland Bloorview telephone Warmline or support families in different clinic areas. Be a teacher Family teachers create a learning opportunity for health care providers by sharing their family’s health care experience. Family teachers participate in small group discussions designed to train health care providers or present at new staff orientation, grand rounds and conferences. Be a member of the family advisory committee (FAC) The family advisory committee is a dedicated group of parents that meets monthly with senior hospital leaders to discuss ways to advance the practice of client and family centred care in hospital programs and processes. Be a member of the Bloorview Research Institute family engagement committee (BRI FEC) The Bloorview Research Institute Family Engagement Committee works with senior leaders from the Bloorview Research Institute to define how we engage families in research, including review of all proposals and grants, how we recruit for research initiatives and how we’ll communicate the findings. Review of grants and proposals is a great way to participate from home.
