A Message from our President Welcome to St. Mary’s General Hospital. It is our privilege to care for you.

Don Shilton President

Our Vision is to be the safest and most effective hospital in Canada, characterized by innovation, compassion and respect. As President, I am proud to say that St. Mary’s consistently performs better than provincial and national averages for many health indicators and that our patient satisfaction scores are amongst the best in Ontario. This means that you can be confident in the care that you and your loved ones will receive here. In order to achieve this, we are guided by four Operational Goals that identify our areas of focus. These targets challenge us to constantly improve in four main areas: quality and safety; patient and family-centred care; our people; and financial stewardship. To complement our Vision, St. Mary’s has implemented a three-year Strategic Plan for 2014-17 which will move us closer to achieving our Vision. The plan’s three Strategic Priorities are to: • Deliver clinical excellence in cardiac and respiratory care and develop a common health record system with our local healthcare partners. • Transform the way we work by developing a culture of problem solvers across the organization. • Reach beyond our walls to facilitate integration so that patients receive more seamless care across the Waterloo Wellington Region.

Our patients and their families are at the centre of everything we do, every encounter, every day. We strive to not only meet your expectations but to exceed them during your stay at St. Mary’s. I welcome your feedback and comments about your experience. If you have any questions or concerns about your care, I encourage you to speak to any member of your healthcare team. In addition, you can reach our patient relations department by calling ext. 6867 from any hospital phone. Sincerely, Don Shilton President

The St. Mary’s General Hospital Foundation plays an important role in the ongoing growth and enhancement of our hospital. Working closely with hospital staff, administration, volunteers and physicians, the Foundation finds needs and develops a strong case for financial support within the community. It is our job to tell your stories; the stories of compassion, innovation and promise to the care of the whole person. It is these stories that stay in the hearts and minds of the community we serve. It is also these stories that inspire people and organizations to support our mission financially. Each year, we raise about 5 million in support of clinical programs here at St. Mary’s. We ask our donors to invest in our hospital and the health of this community. In return, we promise to do everything we can to make sure our patients have the chance to enjoy life’s special moments. It is that promise that makes us unique and it is that promise that every member of the St. Mary’s family helps to keep.

Our Commitment to Patient Safety at St. Mary’s Patient safety is a high priority for St. Mary’s General Hospital. Our goal is to be the safest and most effective hospital in Canada, characterized by innovation, compassion and respect. You can view our performance in achieving that goal by visiting our website at www.smgh.ca We want to make sure that every patient has a safe hospital stay and positive outcome. In any hospital visit, there are potential risks that could affect your care. For example, falls, medication errors, allergic reactions and infections can occur despite our best efforts.

Take an Active Role in Your Health Research tells us that patients who take an active role in their care tend to get better results. Here are some ways to get involved in your care.

Ask Questions The best and easiest way for you to be involved in your care is to make sure that you ask questions when you have them. Your healthcare team, such as doctors and nurses, can give you the information you need, so you can make good decisions and learn what you need to know about your health and care.

Here are some things you can try: • Before you see your healthcare team, write down any questions you want to ask. • If you don’t understand an answer it is okay to ask to have it explained again. • You can also ask where to get more information.

Here are some good ways to ask questions: Deciding about having a test or treatment: • Can you tell me more about my medical problem or my symptoms? • Can you explain it in a different way? (such as drawing a picture) • What is this test or treatment for and what does it involve? • Are there any other options? • What should I do to get ready? When taking a new medicine: • What is this medicine and what will it do? • What are the side effects? When will they appear? • How many pills do I take and how often?

6

www.smgh.ca


Planning for going home: • What should I do when I get home? • What should I tell my family about my care? • Can I eat the same foods that I used to? • When can I go back to work?

What You Should Know Make sure you understand as much as you can about: • Any medical problem or symptoms you have (your diagnosis). • The treatment or procedure you will have. • Any medicine you should take and how to take it.

Some Medication Tips • Make sure your healthcare team knows about your medical history and any allergies you may have to food or drugs. • Know your medications and why you are taking each one. Please ask questions if you’re not sure. • Keep your medication list up to date. Your healthcare team can help you with this. • Do not take any herbal products, vitamins, over the counter or other medications without your doctor or nurse practitioner’s approval.

Before you leave the Hospital Ensure you can “Connect the DOTS” 1. Do you know what to Do if your symptoms return? 2. Are there Other things you can do to stay healthy? 3. What medications are you Taking now? 4. Is there Someone you can call if you need help?

Get Support from Family, Friends and Others It is often helpful to bring a friend or family member with you when talking to your healthcare team. They may have different questions to ask, and they will also need to know about your health and care if they will be helping you when you go home. If you or your family member does not speak or understand English well, and will need an interpreter, please ask as soon as possible so one can be arranged, or bring someone who can interpret for you.

Preventing Falls • Ask a member of your care team for our Falls Prevention brochure. • Ask for help getting in and out of bed, especially at night. • Wear rubber soled slippers when you are out of bed. • Walk as often as you can! It keeps you strong. • Keep your call bell in reach.

Reducing Your Risk of Infection • Wash your hands with soap and water after using the bathroom. Other times, make frequent use of the antibacterial gel from the dispensers in the rooms and hallways. • Ask your visitors to use the antibacterial gel when they arrive and when they leave your room. • Don’t hesitate to ask healthcare providers if they washed their hands before they examine you. • Family or friends who are ill with fever, colds, flu, diarrhea or any infectious illness should not visit. • Due to infection risk, family pets are not allowed in the hospital. • Please let your healthcare team know if you are worried that your room is not clean.

Hand Hygiene Germs are often spread by hand. Good hand hygiene is one of the best ways to prevent the spread of infection. Our staff follows strict hand hygiene practices and we need your help to prevent the spread of germs in the hospital. The best way to stop the spread of germs is by always washing your hands and using the hand sanitizer gel provided throughout the hospital. Put one or two squirts in the palm of your hand and then rub the gel over all surfaces of both your hands for 15 to 30 seconds. Extra washing and sanitizing is needed after you cough, blow your nose, sneeze, use the washroom, and before you eat. You should also use the hand sanitizer before you leave or re-enter a room. Do not rub your eyes or touch your nose or mouth, since germs can more easily enter your body through these areas. When visitors enter or leave your room, remind them to use the hand sanitizer. Feel free to remind hospital personnel to use the hand sanitizer before they touch you.

Hotel Accommodations Compassionate rates for lodging are offered to St. Mary’s patients and their family members by local businesses. For the most up to date list of partner hotels, visit www.smgh.ca or ask a member of your healthcare team. Patients and families book and pay for their own accommodation.

Identification It is important that staff be able to identify patients at all times. During your admission, you will receive an identification bracelet to be worn at all times. Hospital personnel wear name badges that identify them as staff, physicians, students or volunteers.

Isolation Protocols and Expectations St. Mary’s General Hospital is committed to providing an environment that is safe, clean and comfortable for our patients, staff and visitors. The Infection Prevention and Control Department works to minimize hospital-acquired infections. This is achieved through surveillance, screening of high-risk patients, isolation precautions, outbreak investigation, new product evaluation and total quality management. Sometimes, extra measures will be in place if there is an increased risk of infection transmission. During this time, you will be asked to strictly adhere to visiting guidelines and isolation protocols.

Pre-emptive Isolation Certain risk factors can increase chance that a person is a carrier of certain germs that can be spread to others. Often patients don’t know they are a carrier. Patients admitted to hospital are always unwell and more likely to pick up an infection from another patient. We want to keep our patients safe from infection. Any patient admitted into the hospital is checked through a lab test to make sure that they are not a carrier. While we wait for the result, you may be isolated from others in your room by having the privacy curtain drawn around your bed area at all times. A sign will be placed on your curtain and staff and visitors will need to wear gloves and a yellow gown when they come to see you. Once we have the result, we are able to follow most appropriate steps for your care. Your nurse will explain the test result and whether you and your visitors must continue using gowns and gloves. A person’s risk factors can change over time so you may not always be treated the same way. It is very important that you and your visitors use the alcohol hand gel on your bedside table or beside your door whenever you enter and exit your bed area and before you eat. This will help protect you from picking up germs.

Information Desk The information desk is located in the main lobby and is staffed by volunteers who will be happy to assist you.

This includes cash, credit cards, jewelry, important papers and any special items (such as orthotics). If you arrive in our Emergency Department, and are unable to plan ahead to leave these items at home, please give them to a trusted friend or family member upon your arrival.

Visiting Hours Regular visiting hours are from 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. however, admitted patients are now able to have visits from designated family and other partners in care up to 24 hours a day. While the hospital is accessible 24 hours a day, the optimal visiting times for patients are a collaboration between a patient’s preference, condition and care needs. To ensure safe and coordinated visiting, the process for visiting St. Mary’s from 8:30 p.m. to 5:30 a.m. is as follows: • Visitors must have patient consent and be respectful of roommates. • Visitors enter through the Emergency Department and check in with the Security Office. • Once checked in, Security will escort the visitor(s) to the elevators. • Security can be requested to escort the visitor(s) from clinical areas to the exit after hours.

Visitors are also asked to: • Comply with the two-visitor-per patient policy. • Check in with the nursing station the first time they visit the patient to learn about any specific restrictions. • Be aware that additional visitor restrictions are put in place during outbreaks to prevent illness from spreading. • Refrain from visiting when they are sick. • Clean their hands on entering and exiting the unit. • Note that for security reasons, the main entrance door is locked from 9:00 p.m. until 5:30 a.m. daily. During this period, visitors will need to follow special instructions to access patient areas other than the Emergency Department.

Volunteer Association St. Mary’s General Hospital is fortunate to have a large dedicated group of volunteers to assist you with many activities. The Volunteer Association also raises money for St. Mary’s to support their services and ongoing patient needs. Our volunteers can be easily identified by their blue smocks or t-shirts.
