Résumé : | Successful discharge planning for children with complex respiratory needs is dependent on the collaborative efforts of all involved in the child's care. This includes not only those providing direct care to the child in hospital but extends to the community as a whole. The Home Tracheostomy & Ventilation Programme at British Columbia's Children's Hospital has a core team dedicated to the inpatient care of the child & family and to their seamless transfer home. This is achieved by facilitating the 'village' to develop the skills required to safely accept the child back into his community & provide the support needed by the family to maintain the care of the child at home. Inter-professiona l& family-centred collaboration across all sectors within the hospital and the child's home community are central to our philosophy and key to our success. Community development through education/training & information sharing aimed at promoting consistency & continuity of care gives the child, family & community the confidence to make the transition home. We must all be on the same bus in order to arrive at the same destination. |
