Quality Report - November
Going forward, we will be including an update in the monthly newsletter to better inform residents and families of HVH’s Quality Improvement Activities.
What is Quality Improvement?
Quality Improvement (QI) is a continuous assessment of our care and services to look at what works well and where we need improvement. QI activities are person-centredand aim to improve the quality of life for those that live at HVH.
This Month’s Feature:
Moving towards our Strategic Goal of a safe and satisfying workplace.
Upcoming PACE Training
PACE is a point of care risk assessment and safe mobility training program planned for November and December. PACE is an approach that all HVH staff will utilize by looking at a resident’s physical status, communication level, environment and potential behaviours in order to provide safe care and services.

Update on Mealtimes at HVH Resident Council has voted in unanimous favor during the March meeting to move the larger meal from lunch time to supper time. This was implemented and residents are enjoying the change based on the majority of feedback collected so far. Special holiday meals will be scheduled for lunches as specified. ~ Food Services Team

Our annual Painted Lady Butterfly project will commence again this spring. We anticipate receiving our Painted Lady caterpillars during the last week of May. We will watch their transition from caterpillars to butterflies, and then release them into the garden park in early June. Stay tuned for details!
